This is always a popular choice when I have visitors from out of town or those who enjoy a quieter dining option. The food is well presented, with good variety, and the 2 course lunch menu is great value at around $40 for 2 courses + a glass of wine. The ambiance is peaceful and relaxing - a real oasis in the midst of the city. Great to be able to view some lovely art before or after your dining experience. One of my favourite restaurants in Melbourne - note: open for lunch only

Approximate cost: $28

Have been here twice recently: once for a romantic dinner for two, the other for a lunch with a girlfriend. On both occasions the food, service and ambience were first rate. I can highly recommend the value of the $30 "two course and wine" offering. Really lovely.

Approximate cost: $32 - $36

Made a last minute appointment and was fitted in the same day. Groovy atmosphere, stylist was fantastic and one of the best cuts I 've had for ages. A shame it was his last day, he was great.

Love the concept, but things have gone downhill since our previous visits. Everything is a bit grimy and for first timers, its not clear how the concept works (i.e. pay what you think the meal is worth, helping out of work people etc etc). A shame, as the nearby cafe was packed, and Lentil as Anything was much quieter. Service used to be fun and funky, on our visit was poor, given the low numbers of diners. I love this place, so was disappointed with my most recent visit.

Local cafe with friendly staff, good value lunch food (soups, foccias etc) and AMAZING "Fraus" hot chocolates. If you're into hot chocs, this is one of the best I've tasted!

I was dealing with Karen Rastall, one of their travel specialists regarding a trip. I was really impressed with her followup and service. We didn't end up continuing with the booking, however I was so impressed I will be using their service again. They also run great information evenings in the store.

Very happy. Friendly service, made recommendations on how to repair my favourite winter boots. Workmanship was great, and the turnaround very fast. Like the olde worlde ambiance of the store as well. Very personal.

Friendly staff and good range of products which are ideal gifts. Great for hard to buy for friends. They hold the occasional VIP night as well. Some of their organisational products are great for tax time, and the quality of their products is excellent.

Great ambiance and wonderful gifts. The store shops a lovely selection of archival quality paper, cards, books and gifts. Wonderful for a special occasion and quite unique.

I was recommended to get some of my 'label' suits altered here, as they do work for many of the top-end brands in Collins Street. I've not been disappointed
