Houlihans has an excellent range of take home and heat meals. They also have a large selection of lunch and snack items, and they make good coffee to go.
Unfortunately the staff let this place down, every time I have been in they have young staff members working together who seems more interested in gossiping about there private lives and they even carry these conversation on while serving customers. I do not feel welcome there as a customer and this is a shame as it does put me of buying there.

Approximate cost: $15

They certainly have a great selection of take away food but $10.50 for a chicken baguette ... I don't think so !!

Amazing food Selection - Something for everyone!
Buy a curry/stew/stir fry and steamed rice is included!
Take home food, easy to heat - delicious to eat!
Lunch selection is huge, hot and cold food!
Great take away coffee is beautiful!

Approximate cost: $10-15.20

Great take away food. Good take away coffee. Nice people to deal with. Healthy food in a hurry. Generally easy to park.

This is great upmarket take away, especially if you don't have time to cook! Our favourites are the chicken and leek pies and the chicken and cashew stir fry. It is not cheap but is really yummy (and hopefully healthier than your standard take away food)

I always stop there for a chicken and leek pie especially on a really cold day. It's always easy to park there too.

Houlihans is a combination of a small sit-down cafe with convenient home-style meals ready to take home and heat up. It's a popular haunt of St. Kilda footy club players who must live in the area because they are sitting out the front just about every time I've been there.

The Tandoori Chicken wrap is my favourite for lunch but at $8 it's not cheap. They have a large range of soups, stir-frys, goulashes, currys and other meals for take-away but once again at $14 per container there are plenty of cheaper alternatives.

I imagine a lot of locals buy from here because the food is more home-style than what you get from the average take-away restaurant.
