I take my elderly mother for breakfast here on a regular basis and she loves it because the staff recognise her now and save her her favourite table.

For just $12, you can have one of the breakfast specials. Our favourite is bacon, eggs, grilled tomato and toast and it includes a glass of orange juice and a coffee. Excellent value and the food is well presented and delicious.

Seating is comfortable - inside and outside - and there's always the day's newspaper floating around, plus magazines. There's a water station to help yourself.

The menu is quite extensive for a shopping centre cafe and features some lovely meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The pancakes for breakfast are quite spectacular, or you can choose waffles.

The girls are always so friendly and polite, they make it a pleasure to visit regularly.

Approximate cost: $12
