i went here recently without a booking. the staff fit us in and were delightful. its a really nice cafe with lots of yummy looking cakes and macaroons in the window. i have heard their breakfasts are amazing. i had the prawn taglitelli which was nice but a little tasteless. my husband had the steak which he enjoyed. the waitress was lovely and it was quite reasonably priced

bayswater rollercity is on the smaller side but they make up for it by cheap pricing and amazing staff. I have been to their speed skating classes for a few weeks now. and I have never felt more welcome. on my first class the owner personally took me down and helped me fit my skates. every time since then every single staff member has gone out of their way to say hello to me when i arrive and when i leave. i am looking forward to trying their new skate fit classes this week.

i brought a large meatlovers. it was $9.50 pick up. i don't think that is very good value. it tasted ok. the staff are a bit intimating and don't come across as overly friendly.

i went here for an impromptu lunch. it is a delightful setting for a sunny winters day. the staff managed to fit us in without a booking which was nice. my pasta was delicious but most of the pumpkin wasn't cooked through. otherwise it was very nice if a little overpriced. next time i think we will try the main restaurant as it is near the carpark and the view looks spectacular.

hello
i tried to go here today but it was too packed. i suggest maybe a mid week trip not a sunny sunday afternoon. upon walking in there are 3 enormous bowls of chocolate buds that you can help yourself too. this chocolate was delciious. the store is enormous and had a fantastic array of gifts and merchandise. we did not try and order any food as the place was just too busy.

i went here today. when you walk in you think it is a tiny chocolate shop but there is a huge cafe out the back. with every hot chocolate you get a free chocolate to choose from. a staff member comes around with a large selection and proceeds to tell you exactly what each on is. this was amazing as there were at least 40 varieties to choose from. the place is great warm with 2 fireplaces and a foresty view.

I tried to get a quote online. it is apparently 10 percent cheaper online. i tried on 2 different computers and 3 different search engines but it would not take me to the quote page. finally i called for a quote. i gave the person all the details exactly as i have them on my current policy. on the website it says if you are a flybuy member you get 15 percent off (which i am). it also says that if you are over 30 it guarantees you a cheaper rate ( i am). after going through all the talk on the phone the guy tells me they can beat my current rate by 2 cents a month. What the the?? never mind the excess with coles is $100 extra to what i am currently paying. i could not believe it. 2 cents. how can you claim lowest price guaranteed and only offer someone 2 cents off a month while costing them $100 a year in excess. i then said well if the internet had been working would i get it cheaper online as your website claims. i was told no that it would be much more expensive online. what an absolute joke.

this place is great. really well set out. kids had a blast. the coffee was great. 2 issues really. needs better parking and I thought that the staff members (on the floor) spent too much time talking to each other or showing off their moves. there was a quite a few times when the staff would not allow kids into the area because they were doing tricks themselves. being that the kids only get an hour i saw this as a bit of a waste of time. a couple of time my daughter was struggling to get out of the foam pit and the staff weren't paying attention. otherwise great place. cafe staff were fantastic. party hosts looked very good also.

This review is for Sumo Salad, Wantirna VIC

this is a new shop opened in the food court at knox city. i went there on friday night and ordered the firecracker prawns. the girl asked me if i wanted extra prawns i said ok and it was $3 extra. the wait for the food was ages. when i got home the salad i received was pinenut & pumpkin with 6 prawns tossed in, clearly not the firecracker prawn as ordered. however it was very yum despite the prawns not matching at all. the next day i went there and got 2 salads in a small container. pesto chicken & southwest chicken again they were delicious. i mentioned about my experience the night before and the staff could not have cared less. so all in all terrible service but a fantastic product. the salads were delicious.

we ordered take away from here on thursday night. i ordered the meat plate with chips and salad and also ordered extra gravy. when i got home i realised that they had stacked my bags upright which meant all my garlic sauce was all over the salad. the gravy wasn't very nice but the rest of my food was. my husband ordered a lamb kebab. the top was all meat then near the bottom he got a bit of lettuce then the whole bottom was all onion. he didn't realise until he had taken a big bite that it was all onion. the shop is very cold while waiting for food.
