The staff were very attentive and went out of there way to accommodate 3 people to have thier massage experience together. Each masseur was matched appropriately to needs of the individuals and provided a lovely and relaxing experience.

This is a cafe who does great coffee and really good morning and afternoon tea items and light lunches. It is in a beatuiful building and the owners have resisted the tempatation to sqeeze in more patrons for the sake of extra patronage at the expense of a good ambience. Fitting with the area ther are lots of non diary, non caffine options.

This is a ":nice" Greek restaurant -at lunch they prefer and encourage you to have a banquet style meal, which is good value and quite reasonable. It is quite good for a venue for a group -not particularly what you would look for for 2-3 people of better eating.

This is set in the olive groves overlooking Swan Bay between Queenscliff and Drysdale. It appears to be a fairly near venture and offers a good menue and good local wine list. there is a very good tastings plate on offer and a range of smaller meals available. Worth the visit just for the pleasure of the view.

Great casual lunch experience, has a variety of soft and cold noodle dishes.Always have some different specials on offer. Service always good and staff are happy and friendly, despite them having to run up and downstairs all day. Great Mee Goring dish.

The food at Base Camp is Nepalese -so a little bit dirfferent from your reular Indian restaurant. Great food and a good variet to choose from. We used the banquet which we never ever do but what they offered on this selection was not the cheap and nasty option which is what often happens.

This business is very friendly to bottom end users (kids with bikes and little money). they have very obligingly repaired bikes on the run and provided advice on what (and what not ) to purchase. they have a good range of bikes and parts and are happy to get parts inthey don't stock.
Approximate cost: $60 - $300
We broke a glass panel and had cracks in two other windows. All were replaced at a very reasonalbwe cost and with very prompt service. The office was very useful and ensured the glazier was given all information and he arrived when he said he would!
Approximate cost: $200
If you are looking for a browse to pick up something generall or something that takes your fancy, it provides a very good place. The staff are generally helpful and there are sufficient staff to be able to get some assistance. Reasonalby expensive -worthwhile shopping around escpecially if you are going to purcahse a lot of plants. There is very limited native stock and there is no attempt to provide indigenous plants (to this area). If you are looking for specific plants that are not stocked, they will attempt to source it for you.
Approximate cost: $5-$1000
