This is a really nice cafe/retail store. The retail store sells lots of jams , delicious macafdamia butter, soaps, handcremes, gourmet foods. The cafe is really nice with a view of the Nursery gardens.The scones are really nice with gourmet jam and the delicious macadamia butter. The food and cakes are really nice I have been there a few times and each time have been happy with the food and coffee.

I have been a regular customer of this cafe for many years because there coffee and european thick hot chocolates are amazing. The hot chocolates are thick and you can pick from many varieties some that have coconut hazelnut, white chocolate, chili, etc. The place is morrocan style and is open late Fridays with usually a man singing or some sort of entertainment. It is pretty cramped though but nice. Although, I find the back outdoor area to be pretty dirty and often smells funny as the seats are located right next to the outside toilet and the furniture doesnt look like it gets cleaned much outside. So if you go I recommend sitting inside. You can buy gifts such as candles and morrocan style homewares, chocolates, fudge, lamps,vases, etc. I think overall it is a great place to go if you want a coffee or a hot chocolate but have sometimes found the cake to not taste the freshest and they are around 8 dollars a slice and when I got a lemon tart it tasted off and I didn't eat it. But highly recommend the european hot chocolate and the coffee would be the best in the Croydon /Mooroolbark area.

Very friendly staff, they have won many awards for being a top dealership so I was expecting to great service which they delivered. Very helpful staff in Service and the salesman still want to know you even when they have sold a car. If I ever need to buy another car I will be coming back to this dealership I highly recommend it.

The coffee at the place is really good and I like that they have lots of organic foods and drinks. However, what lets it down is the slow service and the average quality of the food very basic.

This place gets busy because the food and coffee is really nice. They do really good breakfasts and the average price is only around $12. I had the avocado which has lime pepper and spinach with it on sour dough toast it was really nice and I loved the coffee. The staff are really nice and Dale the owner has a good sense of humour and is really friendly and helful. I will be returning soon ..

This place is really small but they have done a great job with the shop fittings to make use of the space and make it feel larger. It has good coffee , and I had a vegetarian pizza on a rotti bread with pumpkin fetta spinach pinenuts and balsamic it was really delicious for a healthy alternative. The food tasted fresh and the customer service was of good standard. It's a nice place to go for breakfast or lunch.
