at laguna, i was very impressed with their service level when i was there for a tournament few mths ago. u feel that u r in a 4-5 star hotel rather than in a golf cafeteria esp the way the staff dressed, all in smart suits/skirts/pants.

This one typical Singapore-style service. No smile, no eye contact, no courtesy, no sound, and definitely no thank you. These are all add-ons. If u want any of the beforementioned, pay more.

Service here is in the dumps!

The truth is that in Singapore it's usually the consumer who says 'Thank you' and smile at the service provider. Sinkies much? Suspect

Not surprising given that one's Taiwanese, the other Japanese.

MGBC Canopy cafe is absolutely rubbish, food so so, price ridiculous and service, what service, they got none at all. NSRCC comes a close second with lousy food and super slow service.

I think otherwise for MBGC Canopy Cafe. I have golf and range there for 3yrs+. I like the night scene and the place is very airy. Food is also quite good and I like Johor Bee Hoon, Mee Goreng, Ice Cheng Tng and Prawn Paste Ckn. The price is also comparable against other golf cafe, not expensive IMHO. Service is so so. Hence overall I still rate it V Good.

MBGC Canopy has the best food and view...especially NY fire works...its perfect....

the service has got to be one of the worst in Singapore at certain timing. Just imagine during a rain break and more than 50 ppl rush in to start ordering food and snacks!!!!!!

I notice due to the variety of food they have, they will prepare the food that has the most orders first. Choose wisey and your food can be ready in minutes, choose unwisely it can be 20 mins and several reminders latter

Quite sad cause the rest of MBGC staff are very friendly (except when the marshals chase u for the slow play of the group in front) . I know the Canopy is a tenant but ppl will associate them with MBGC staff.

MBGC is time for them to replace the old ballls.
Charging at such a premium rate, yet the ball quality is so bad...

The view at Canopy @ MBGC makes up for the poor quality food and service..Also, the price of the Japanese food there is ridiculous!!! Mad Mad

I have stopped patronising MBGC canopy for a yr... service is non existent. The only saving grace is the view...

Just ate some pork chop at canopy the other day.
the size of the pork chop was pathetic two pic of pork the size of mc-muffin! 
the pork is so hard and taste is almost not existing that i have to cover it with ketchup to eat it.
