My partner is a member of the bowls club and I have played once during a social bare foot Friday game, where I had a lot of fun.
It has a great social atmosphere and I always enjoy myself when I visit and I have made some great friends.

I buy all my meat from this butcher. They have great quality meat at good prices and they also offer a gluten free range. Today I bought 2 pork chops, 8 lamb chops, 2 gluten free chicken schnitzel and 2 gluten free veal schnitzel and 2 huge chicken fillets and it only cost me $25. If I bought all this from coles or safeway, it would have cost me over $50.
Plus as a bonus they have given everyone at my work a 5% discount card so I always save just that little bit more.
They are polite and courteous and will are happy to help.

OMG they offer their entire menu GLUTEN FREE.
For the first time in 6 years, I have had a real pizza, I have had chicken parma, I have eaten garlic bread (instead of watching everyone else eat it)
And it's all gluten free.
Of course their entire menu is normally normal, so the normal gluten eaters can enjoy too but everything on it can be adapted to gluten free and you just don't get this anywhere else.
Love love love this place and I go there as often as I can.

Fantastic service
Amazing coffee
They also have a coffee van and will come out to your workplace and make you fresh hot coffee and they have food too. Healthier than the tuck shop.
I could go on forever about this place, they are just wonderful and nothing is too hard.
They know you by name and make you feel like you are the only customer there.
And they happily make me a decaf soy cappuccino with no chocolate every time.

My sister took me there when I was visiting Melbourne and it is amazing. They have a huge selection of Gluten Free cakes and slices etc and it all tastes fantastic. They were able to cater to my weird and wonderful diet of gluten free and were happy to make me a decaf soy cappuccino with no chocolate so I was truly in heaven.
The only reason I have only given them 3 stars for service is due to the manager quoting me one price for 6 cakes and then the young counter girl insisting I pay $8 more than quoted when I went to pay for them.
And she refused to speak to her boss and looked annoyed with me when I asked her to question it.
In the end I paid the higher amount, because I wanted the cakes but it did upset me that she wouldn't follow up my complaint, when her boss was only meter's away in another room.
But other than that small experience, this Sweet by Nature cafe is the place to go for all things cakes and coffee.
And they do amazing wedding cakes.
Go there!

Their food was OK, but I was only able to eat the rice as they wouldn't accommodate my gluten free diet. They understood my requirements and they did check all their ingredients, however after confirming that there was wheat and gluten in pretty much everything, they were not prepared to alter their menu to help me. (eg, cook some veges without flour) The rice was nice though.

Extensive range of stationery products available and they will also deliver. Friendly service and they will look into items that they don't necessarily stock to see if they can get it in for you. They also cater for scrap booking and card making supplies.

Also throughout the year they offer card making and scrap booking classes.

Nothing is too hard for Kym. She will do what ever she can to alter meals to cater for food allergies and also will create meals that are not entirely on the menu.
Very friendly and remembers her customers.

Reasonably priced and thorough in their work. Friendly service and easy to get to.
They explained everything they did and when they had to replace a part in my car, they gave me the old part so that I could see what was done.
