Lovely Cafe at the top end of Woodends main strip. Delicious chicken burger and chips and a lemon and ginger tea. Lovely staff and great service. Then we came back for a take away coffee for the drive home.

Absolutely fantastic experience! The food was delicious and full of flavor, and the customer service was top-notch. Jaggu was incredibly kind and attentive throughout our visit. We had a small issue with one dish, but it was resolved immediately without any hassle. Really impressed by how professional and welcoming the team was. Highly recommend!

Fantastic little cafe! The food was amazing! Staff caring and attentive! And the tea top notch! I absolutely loved the little cow milk jug! Cutest thing ever! I highly recommend Paysanne if you’re in the area. You won’t be disappointed

Stopped in on a cold day for a warm muffin and a takeaway coffee. The service at the counter was lovely and the barista has a great sense of humour - the handwritten note on the top of the takeaway lid read "Trust me! The latte art was cool." In 2 different colours

Paysanne is a great little find for us. We often pop in for a coffee and cake when we pass through Woodend. Excellent choice of gluten free food as well as other delights. Coffee was also great. Parking is good. It was busy inside (always a good sign) but plenty of seats outside. Staff were very pleasant. We will return on our next time we visit Woodend for sure.

Our group of 4 had a lovely lunch at Paysanne. I was impressed by the food options as they cater for various dietary requirements including Vegetarian, Vegan, Gluten Free, Dairy Free. And Fructose Free. As a coeliac, I noticed that they go above and beyond the typical café gluten free options which is appreciated. Wish more cafés would offer such a decent range of GF food like Paysanne does.
