friendly, quick service, delicious food and a relaxed vibe. Everything we ordered was yummy and interesting - we had chocolate and pomegranate flavoured soda waters to drink, soy sweet and sour chicken nuggets with vegetables and sea jewels which were soy prawns wrapped in crispy noodles, inside a lettuce leaf - beautiful! staff were friendly and the whole experience was very pleasant I will definitely go back. It is kind of cafe style so if you are looking for a very fancy night out or to really impress someone maybe not - it is small and relaxed.

Approximate cost: $15-18

i have had my child in here since she was 8 months old and she is now 4 years old. She has loved every day there and I have never had one issue with them. It has been a great support to me and the childcare helped me finish my masters degree. They have also helped me out in a tight spot when I needed child care at the last minute when they had a spare spot as another child was sick. They are all friendly and lovely.

they are always friendly and get things done in a timely fashion for my needs. they are also willing to express things if you need them quickly which is nice. I don't really have a complaint and will go back for my next dry cleaning need.

this is an affordable hairdresser and they generally do a good job, but be careful who you get to do your hair, because one lady did not listen to the colour hair dye I wanted and did it wrong!! I arked up and they managed to fix it, lucky for them.. next times ive been in they have been fine. Mel in particular is one to ask for because not only is she a good hairdresser but she listens and is sensitive to what you want. It gets very packed on the weekends with lots of men dropping in for buzz cuts. There are no bells and whilstles ie/ tea or coffee or long head massages, but overall good value for money for a decent cut and colour.

food nice, but menu could have a bit more variety, service timely and decor nice. We had fruit salad with yogurt, bacon lettuce and tomato sandwich, soup of the day and lentil balls.

food average, sooo much chilli in so many dishes, but nice enough for a night out, very cheap ate my fill and had drinks all for about twenty dollars... service very friendly and very cordial to my friend who had her birthday there, dimming the lights bringing out a dessert with a candle in it and singing happy birthday. Also took a large booking on a saturday night at a moment's notice. Nice decor too and good big round tables. I had a great time there.

food here is always great, but service not very good, waitress on another planet, I had to get our menus for us, she did not offer a high chair and we had to ask for it, we asked for water for the table she brought one glass of water and then 10 minutes later brought out water for the table??? brought two napkins for two adults and two children and no cutlery for my four year old at all!!! waiting time for food ok and relaxed vibe, but relaxed is one thing, space cadet is another!

What i love about this place is the friendliness of the staff they are always super welcoming and love to chat to my kids. I know ill always see a friendly face when i go hear to have a coffee and when you can't get out much its great to know this. Food is standard fare - sandwiches, hot drinks, fruit salad, and greasy stuff if you like it.

The menu isn't really my thing with lots of big fatty options, I ended up ordered duck tapas and a side of veggies. When we arrived we were seated at a small waiting table before being moved to our booked table when it was ready. The atmosphere was bubbly and vibrant and there was some live music which was a nice touch. From our table we could look out of big windows onto a lovely view of trees. Drinks were ordered and arrived promptly, however our mains took about 40 minutes to arrive and every one started complaining a bit because they were hungry and impatient. When they did arrive there was an apology for the delay, however in the interim we were not attended to and asked if we would like a starter to tide us over. For dessert I had a sticky date pudding (which did arrive promptly) which you can't go wrong with but I've had nicer ones. My friend had a Banoffe pie which tasted like an under ripe banana.
At the end of the evening they let us split the bill but we had to tally it up ourselves. Overall I was a bit disappointed with the service as it was slow and not very attentive. It was also really loud and hard to hear people and we had a really cold fan blowing on us. The best thing about this place is the bubbly vibe, view and music.
Some meals available- chicken kiev, duck tapas, pizzas, kangaroo, sides: greek salad, bowl of veggies, potato mash

Approximate cost: $25.00
