I found the menu to be extensive. Many vegetarian options. The service was very good, the waitresses were very friendly and helpful. I LOVED the food. The servings were great value for money and wonderful fresh ingredients. The Crispy pancake was great and sooooo big it could have been a main. I then noticed others getting one to share. I will be going back

My only complaint is that my meal came out about 6 -7 mins later than than my friends and her main meal was only a salad.

Approximate cost: $16

Lovely building. Really enjoyed soaking up the winter sun in the beautiful paved courtyard. The staff friendly, but not overly helpful. Sitting down for 12-15 mins before someone came and told us we had to order at the bar. You pay before you get your meal. With only 5 main meals on the menu I was expecting something good. Not the case, very average for the price paid.
With so little to choose from on the menu I would not return as there is nothing else to tempt me, unless they are regularly going to change the menu.

Approximate cost: $24 main

THE WORST SERVICE I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED.

Went out for a Sunday lunch. What a complete disappointment. The food was actually quite nice, but the service dismal. Had to ask for our drinks 3 times, eventually the waitress banged them on the table and complained that it was not her job to get our drinks but the bar staff?? Our starters arrived (after having first been taken to another table) but we got no plates or cutlery. After waiting a few mins we just started eating the breads with no plates.

The second course eventually came after being delivered to another table who had not even had their order taken. The waiter delivering the meals was a 14 year old boy who was clearly not up to the task. We were three people sitting at a table for 6. He just put the meals up the opposite end to where we were sitting and walked away. We had to work out what they were ourselves.

We will never return and would certainly not recommend.

I have eaten here several times. The food is always fabulous. The meals are a good size and the price is good for what you get. Has a nice courtyard out the back. Have had good and bad service, but will return because the food has always been very good and they always have wonderful salads on the menu. The coffee is good (hard to get good coffee in Maitland).

Approximate cost: $15.00

Would not recommend and will not go back. Food very average and overpriced for what you get. Restaurant decor very outdated (from from seventies, not trying to look chic but original) vinyl chairs with rips, etc, not a good look or feel. Waited 45 mins for mains and it was not a busy night. The young wait staff were kind and friendly. The older woman was horrible, rude and very disinterested. So with very average food ( my husband ordered a chicken schnitzel with crab, mussels & prawns. The "crab" was not actual crab meat but tripe.) a long wait and rude service it made for a disappointing night.

Approximate cost: $20

The service was very good. The view was outstanding. Food below average especially for the price paid. Undercooked pasta. Undercooked chicken. Had to send coffee back as it looked and tasted like old dishwater. Just because you have a nice view doesn't mean you can serve sub standard meals at inflated prices!!!

Approximate cost: $33

This review is for Maitland Physiotherapy & Sports Injuries, East Maitland NSW

This place was reccommended to me by another physio, because it was a lot closer to my home and meant a lot less travel for me. My old physio sent all my details over discussed my condition with staff and made an appointment for me. When I turned up the person seeing me could not even give me the treatment I required or use the machinery there. He went and got another staff member who also did not know how tho operate the machinery either. I was so dissapointed as they had been told about the treatment that I required. The person I saw was useless and gave me the wrong treatment making my condition worse. I was in so much agony after leaving I could not even straighten up to get out of the car. My husband had to come out to get me out and carry me out of the car and into the house. I had to lay on the floor for three days before I could move again!!! I have not and will not go back to this place again. I am still making the 75Km round trip to my old physio.
