A great cafe to visit for a beautiful lunch and coffee. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming when I entered the coffee shop and made every customer feel special. They have a great range of pastries, sandwiches and treats, which look and taste delicious. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area.

This review is for Itali Co, Sorrento VIC

This a great Italian restaurant in Sorrento with wonderful, fast and efficient service as well as kind, welcoming staff. I visited on a quieter day of the week, so it wasn't too busy. I ended up ordering a pizza for lunch, which was a reasonable portion and when eating a slice it felt as if I had been transported to Italy. Absolutely amazing and would definitely recommend to anyone in the area.

I have visited this cafe several times and they are consistent with their meals. I ordered the french toast for breakfast and received it pretty quickly because I ate here during the quieter time of day and was served by a bubbly staff member. Their meals are absolutely delicious and are made fresh. Also this cafe is in a great location, but there isn't a large seating area as it is a rather small place. Other than that though I give it two thumbs up.

This review is for Collingwood Football Club Membership, Melbourne VIC

There is a great selection of team merchandise, but I have to say that their clothing is rather expensive and overpriced. I do enjoy looking for cheaper items to bring to the football and it's a lot of fun just looking at what they have in store. The staff were pretty friendly and polite when serving me and another plus is that the store has all the premiership cups that Collingwood have won over the decades, which is an exciting experience.

Approximate cost: $30

This review is for Bambu Bridge, Mornington VIC

I was excited to try out this place because I absolutely love Chinese cuisine, but was immediately disappointed when I received my meal. It was of poor quality and my meat was undercooked and looked as if it had been slopped together. I intended to get a full refund because the dish wasn't up to standard, but the manager refused to do so even after I explained why I was unhappy with my meal. Overall a terrible place to eat at with bad food and even worse customer service.

This review is for Grand Hotel, Mornington VIC

This was my first time coming here and I have to say it exceeded my expectations. I had a lovely dinner in the bistro, they have a great selection of food and drinks. The prices were what I would expect and the service was absolutely quick, nothing but impeccable. The grand hotel also has a music venue, which I also visited after my dinner. There was a bar and small seating area near the stage. The concert was incredible from the singing, lights, sound, etc. and during the performance waiters were quick to remove any empty glasses, which just goes to show the amazing level of customer service at this venue.

Approximate cost: $30

This review is for Aromas Of Eltham, Eltham VIC

This a great cafe to go to with the kids as it has a family friendly atmosphere. They have a great selection of pastries and their coffee is rich and creamy, which is always a bonus. The staff are always pleasant and treat each customer kindly. You also don't have to wait long for your meal and coffee.

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Redfire Lounge, Frankston VIC

I decided to visit this restaurant because the name of it sounded interesting and tied in well with the overall interior. They had a nice fireplace in the corner of the restaurant with lots of firewood and a seating area, which is great for winter. When entering the restaurant I was given a table by a kind, bubbly staff member. Once seated I looked over the menu and discovered that their prices were rather low, due to the fact that they have lower prices at lunchtime. I ordered the honey mustard chicken wrap, which came out quickly and tasted absolutely delicious. The service staff worked great as a team and cleared my table as soon as I finished.

Approximate cost: $12

This review is for Coburg Trash & Treasure Market, Coburg VIC

verified email - 05 Aug 2017

I love going to markets to find some great bargains and this trash and treasure market did not disappoint. I purchased a variety of items that were both new and second hand. The prices were reasonable for some things and overpriced for others, but I guess it just depends on what stall you go to. The people running the stalls were mostly friendly and helped me pick out a few items I was interested in.

Approximate cost: $20

The service is great and the owner is very welcoming and friendly to all their customers. They serve breakfast here, which is convenient before starting off your busy day and there's also free wi-fi. I didn't have to wait long for my meal and it tasted pretty good considering the low price.

Approximate cost: $13
