This is a lovely little cafe situated opposite a quaint cinema and surrounded by an assortment of interesting shops. There is a small garden out the back for the smokers if they so wish & their coffee is absolutely amazing. A great place for brunch.

Approximate cost: $15

I used to buy my meat here & have it home delivered for convenience. The ladies are relatively friendly however, I was most disappointed after being a regular customer with 3 children to feed when my daughter was knocked back when she asked for a $20 meat tray for a fundraiser. Their meat is of the highest quality but very expensive.

Approximate cost: $20

This my favourite of cafes in Williamstown. They are very friendly & helpful, have a fine selection of gourmet produce for purchasing but my favourite is their BLT which is absolutely amazing. The coffee has depth & there are always a number of newspapers to read.

LOVE this colourful & trendy cafe, the staff are more than friendly, the atmosphere buzzing, the meals huge & the menu even bigger. This place always seems busy and the location is quite lovely overlooking the park and water.

Being a smoker I find myself tired of waiting at the supermarket whereas this man is just opposite. He knows what I want & is always helpful & rather funny. I never have to wait long & his prices are that bit cheaper than the supermarkets.

Approximate cost: $21

This review is for Carlile Swimming Altona North / Newport, Altona North VIC

I have been a member here in the past & never had to wait for equipment which was great as it is a very large venue. The pool area is fantastic which offers swimming lessons. I used to be a swimming instructor here & the children always had a great time. I did find the staff at reception could have been a bit more professional

Approximate cost: $10

This review is for Sirens Restaurant, Williamstown VIC

Situated on the water & opposite the gardens this restaurant offers fine dining with the food being delicious & presented beautifully however I find the service to be somewhat stiff. There are plenty of tables outside overlooking the beach which is lovely on a sunny day. As I have been here many times with family & friends I do feel it's over priced however, great for functions.

Approximate cost: $35

This review is for TIP TOP BUTCHERS, Laverton North VIC

We visit here frequently not only for their meat which we find good quality for the cost, they also offer a wide seclection of frozen foods. I especially love their pizzas and the base is crunch with lots of topping. We always leave with more than we intended as it is similar to a mini supermarket.

Approximate cost: $15

Located in a beautiful location opposite the water & park. Eye catching from the moment you enter with lovely pine furnishings & a boaty atmosphere. They offer interesting oyster shots & the seafood is to die for. An interesting array of pizzas is on the menu which would suit any palate. The service was rather slow & I found the staff could have been friendlier however was most professional.

Approximate cost: $28
