Huge! That is the word I use when it comes to your meal size at the German Arms Hotel. This is the place I go to with mates when we are really hungry. Excellent, quality food with extremely large servings, so I you are going here for lunch, skip breakfast. Large menu to choose from, I have ordered the Burger a few times as well as the Giant Cheese Kransky, some friends have had the Giant Hot Dog, all meals were very satisfying and that is why we have been here a number of times now. My only issue has been the service, can be a bit slow but well worth waiting for. It seems to be very popular with tourists as well. Great place for a get together and an excellent meal. Have returned many times and will continue to do so. I highly recommend.

I mainly get takeaway from this restaurant, but I did eat in once with my family,. A very large dining area, plenty of room for large functions with a massive menu with heaps of variety at fairly reasonable prices. I always order garlic prawns and salt and pepper squid. I have tried the lemon chicken a couple of times and enjoyed it. You have to try their beef and chicken satay sticks, absolutely delicious, I always ask for extra sauce, no other chinese restaurant I have been to has ever match these satay sticks. Very fast friendly service, plenty of parking and reasonable prices. This is one chinese restaurant I highly recommend.

Stopped here on one of my outings with friends recently and was certainly glad that we did. Great menu, we were mainly after burgers and we were not disappointed. A burger with the lot was only $10 as well as the Steak sandwiches, liked the look of the schnitzel burgers as well as their hot dogs. All for around $10. The food tasted very fresh and I liked the burger buns being toasted. Everyone enjoyed their meals and we have all decided that when in Crafers, this is the only place we will be eating in. Service was excellent, very friendly, plenty of seating and a pleasant atmosphere. No complaints, great food for a decent price. Definitely recommend you try.

Went here recently with a couple of friends as they had been telling me how good the meals were here. They were right, really enjoyed their salt and pepper squid, others had the usual schnitzels and chips. Very generous servings, I have to say my salt and pepper squid was close to being the best I have ever had - and I eat this whenever it is on the menu. The staff were very friendly and didn't have to wait long for our meals. The dining area isn't anything special, it is quite average in need of some work. I would say that was the only thing I disliked. Very large menu, so no problem finding something you would like. Various pricing, I think more on the expensive side.

This review is for Balance Cafe, Meadows SA

Decided to check this Cafe out with a couple of friends just for something light to eat and drink instead of the Meadows Bakery. Upon entering we received a very friendly welcome, fortunately it wasn't very busy and we were served straight away, they do an all day breakfast but I just had some coffee and a toasted sandwhich, my friend tried their pancakes and said they were delicious, they certainly did look it and I then regretted not ordering them. The menu isn't huge, but neither is the Cafe. I am sure you will find something you will enjoy. They get quite busy on the weekends, so if you like it a bit quiet, go during the week.

Went here with some friends after an evening out. The girls really wanted something sweet, so we thought we would try this place out. Not a very big place but it was comfortable, ordered a Donut Sundae, Chocolate Fondant and a Peanut Butter Crunch (I can't remember what it was called). Well the girls thought they were in heaven, this certainly is the place to go if you have an extreme sweet tooth and love desserts. They are disgustingly delicious, a bit tooooooo sweet for me, I needed a large black coffee to recover. So if you are out having a dinner, make sure you don't have dessert, instead go here, you wont be disappointed. Many to choose from with prices ranging from $12 - $14. You do receive a large serving, I think to much for one person. They also have quite a variety that you can take home with you. They do not have EFTPOS, so make sure you bring your cash with you. Definitely recommend to anyone with a severe sweethtooth.

Have been here twice now, my most recent was a friends birthday get together. I have to say their pizzas are fabulous, absolutely delicious and I have to say the same about their steak, cooked to perfection. Very reasonable portions and very nicely presented. I think their prices are a bit high compared to other restaurants, but the food is worth it - for special occasions. The dining area is reasonably sized with a friendly atmosphere. My only complaint is that the service has been very slow both times I have been here. So it you don't mind waiting a bit longer than usual for your meal - which you will enjoy, I would suggest you give them a go!

Service was a bit slow but to be expected when they are so busy. They have a huge menu to choose from, we chose one of their pick up deals (it works out to be a lot cheaper) Ordered the Mexican and Meatlovers Pizzas as well as garlic bread. I have to say they were quite generous with their toppings and they really did taste great. They also do ribs, didn't get them on this ocassion, but I really do want to give them a go. Will be returning and definitely recommend.

Feeling a bit hungry after being out with friends we decided to try this takeaway shop. Glad we did, they do great chips - I really like the salt they put them, their butterfish tasted really fresh. My friend tried the Yiros and was very pleased. The food really hit the spot. Very reasonable prices, I was told it would have been cheaper if I would have presented a shop-a-docket. Unfortunately, I didn't have one. Food was great and will return if out this way again.

Went here for a meal with a group of friends before going to the movies. It has a very large spacious dining area with a friendly atmosphere. We didn't have a lot of time so we all ordered either the chicken or beef schnitzels with fries to try and make it easier for them and hopefully quicker. It appeared to be difficult as we ordered 4 beef schnitzels and 2 chicken, but received 5 chicken and 1 beef. We certainly were not happy, but knew it would take toooo long to get our order corrected. Overall, they tasted fairly good, just not what we ordered. Also we had to pay extra for the gravy. They have an extensive menu, so if there is a next time, I will certainly be ordering something different and hope they get it right. Hopefully they don't get their orders wrong very often.

Approximate cost: $22
