Came here with an entertainment book voucher a few weeks back, and we've returned with our children tonight. Again, the food was really lovely, the service great. The kids play area is brilliant, no electronic games or playgrounds, just good old fashioned toys and books to fuel the imagination. The coffee was good, but not great, however the overall experience was just relaxed and very comfortable. Will be returning regularly, now that I finally found it.

The meals are actually $20 for the lunch special - 2 courses (entree or main or dessert) and a drink which represents excellent value. I usually order an entree (spring rolls) and main and get hubby to order main and dessert so that we can share! Works out perfectly. They have nice padded seats. The place is huge! There is couches there if you wish to sit in front of the fire. Its' easy to get to just the other side of Hurstbridge...so no country driving. There is plenty of parking and a nursery adjacent to browse through and digest your meal. The desserts are usually just the cakes that are on display...your usually stuff but it fills a sugar craving. I like this place it's a good place to bring visitors to australia/victora as it shows the landscape at it's best.

This place is really nice. There is plenty of art on the walls to look at. The building itself has windows framing the landscape, which is oh so pretty. We usually go for the lunch specials, i think they are about $25 or so for two courses and a glass of wine/drink. The food is always delicious and the staff are kind. the toilets are always clean. I like that it is basically empty - there is an open fireplace.

Had a decent meal here the other night, with a few guests. But as others have said, the place is HUGE, and you're left feeling a bit odd. Food came out quickly... almost too quickly, I think theyw ere wanting us to leave as we were their last customers.

I think this place tried to be too big and that is its problem. The food is alright, the quality matches the price, and the drinks are the same. the place feels empty though and when we were there there weren't a lot of people but it felt emptier than it should. if they down size or get some atmosphere going I think it would be better.

Took Mum and Godmother here for lunch day before Mothers Day. We ordered flounder only to be told they had none even though it was on daily specials board! Waitress missed one entree. Food came out lukewarm and vegies almost raw. Not happy.

My family and I LOVE going here for breakfast! There is room for the kids to play and the food is sumptuous! The Big Brekkie is great value and the coffee is pretty darn good too. They listen to feedback and respond. I mentioned something to the owner about them changing the sausages for the big brekkie and how I thought they weren't as good as the old ones and they changed them back! I was over the moon that they listened :) Good friendly service, nice environment and views. Love it!

Approximate cost: $10-$22

The food we had for lunch was standard pub menu but it was a step above and everyone liked their dishes. The service was very friendly and accommodating.

We had a number of small children and prams with us. There was heaps of room for the kids to roam outside and for the babies to be put on blankets on the floor.

You can eat inside or out. It was a very hot day but it was lovely and cool inside. There is a huge fireplace which would be excellent in winter. We ended up sitting around all afternoon and did not feel pressured to move on.
