Unimpressed! Went here with some friends as they wanted to try this place out. The only good thing about this place is that the prices were ok, the service however, wasn't. They placed our drinks on the table and you could see that the glasses had not been washed properly. Felt the food was average, had the satay beef for entree and then didn't really want anything else, it was overcooked. I like tender meat not dry crispy meat coated in sauce to hide it. I wasn't the only one that felt this way, we all decided to just have an entree and then leave. Will not be returning.

I have been here a number of times now, their food is fabulous! You can eat in or take away. I usually order one of their plain pies, I have tried the curry beef pie and it was great, the pastry was light, it was full of flavour. The sausage rolls are a must and once you see their cakes/donuts you wont know which to try. My favourites are the chocolate custard berliner and vanilla slice. They also do hot chips and burgers as well as many other meals, a reasonable menu, is a bit pricey, but worth it. You can eat inside and also outside dining. But what I really like is that they are open 24/7.

I picked up some take away from here yesterday on my way home, it wasn't my first time and it wont be my last. They make the best Salt & Pepper Pork Spare Ribs and Salt & Pepper Calamari. Have also tried their Spicy King Prawn & Squid, absolutely delicious, incredible fresh taste and the prices really are reasonable starting from around $9.50 for a main meal. I have never seen such a large extensive menu with over "100" meals to choose from. You can eat in, but there aren't very many tables, I prefer take away. Also the servings are very generous and the staff are very quick and friendly. My only complaint is figuring out what to order! Definitely recommend you try.

I dropped in here with a friend today as we were thirsty and needed to kill some time whilst waiting for our take out. We just wanted something cool to drink so sat down and had a chocolate milkshake each. Really enjoyed our milkshakes and have to say the food smelt great and really looked appetising. It was lunch time and quite a few people were eating here. I regretted that we had ordered take out from somewhere else as the menu really looked good and we were comfortable and didn't feel like leaving. I really wanted to try one of their burgers, which I noticed someone else eating. They do all day breakfasts and even vegetarian food. We enjoyed our milkshakes and reluctantly left to pick up our take out from else where. Will definitely be back to try one of those burgers I was eyeing off!

My girlfriend and I decided to try this place just for coffee and to have a look at the menu. They certainly have a variety of food on offer including breakfast. When I noticed they serve indian food (a favourite of mine) I couldn't resist. We were not overly hungry so decided to share the Butter Chicken with some rice, I have to say it really was delicious and there was definitely enough for the two of us. I think I would prefer to just have take away next time. Not that it was a terrible atmosphere, it just wasn't for us. The staff were friendly enough and the food was very good quality.

I picked up some of their BBQ Chicken, chips and greek salad on my way home after a day out with friends to share with my family. It was only after reading a review a few days ago that I decided to try them. The chicken wasn't dry, it was cooked perfectly. It was great in a bread roll with nice thick gravy and chips on the side. I found the service was a little slow (it was quite busy) but the food certainly was worth the wait. Friendly staff and will definitely return when out that way again.

This Cafe has been here for quite a few years now and I am amazed that it hasn't been reviewed. Well, to be honest I only just tried this Cafe last week after going to the movies with friends and have to say their coffee is fantastic. As soon as you walk through the door you know you have to try one, the aroma really hits you. We enjoyed it that much, that we had a second cup each and sat in this comfortable cafe for over an hour. The only issue we had was that the service was a bit slow, we had to remind them that we were still waiting even though they were not busy at the time. They also serve some fresh food but I didn't try any. Will definitely be back now that I have tried them.

I have been here a couple of times now just for take away. I really like their Chicken satay sticks and curry puffs at around $8.50 per entree. I have tried their Green chicken curry and fried rice and found them to be pretty good. It usually only takes about 20 minutes and then my order is ready of pick up. I have always found them to be friendly and fairly quick with my order. The serving size of the meals are sometimes generous, it seems to depend on who serves you on the day. I have had it vary a few times now. I really only go here for their satay sticks, so I would suggest you try them, you wont be disappointed. The dining room looks quite good, but I haven't eaten in and probably wont. Overall, their food is quite good at reasonable prices.

This review is for Hahndorf Fish & Chips, Hahndorf SA

I have had take away from this fish and chip shop a couple of times now, my most recent being this week as I am on holidays - lucky me! I absolutely love their Calamari Rings, I can't eat enough of them. Fabulous! I also enjoy their fresh Hake, nice crispy batter and the chips, well they are just as good. They also do prawns, a bit to pricey for me, but maybe some other time. I mainly go here for their CALAMARI! Very clean shop, fast friendly service. Will definitely be returning and it is a place you need to try.

Approximate cost: $12+

Attention!!!! If you have a very sweet tooth, then I suggest you go here. My friends had been wanting me to try this place with them, so finally I said yes (I have a sweet tooth, but nothing like theirs). Anyway, we all had a hot chocolate, it was delicious. I also tried one of their belgian waffles, as everyone was going on and on about them. Well, they really were great with ice cream. So much to choose from, everyone else had something more chocolatey, like the mud cake. I have to say that the chocolate sundae really looked good. Oh! what am I saying, everything looked and tasted great. I certainly had my chocolate fix! A must place to go whether it is for coffee or chocolate.
