A decent pizza restaurant. Generous with the toppings and a pretty good size. The staff working were not overly friendly, but also not rude, and the prices were fairly average.

Delicious food! My house mate and I order delivery, through menulog, at least once a week. We get the same driver every time and he is so funny and polite. I absolutely love the prawn fried rice, and the pan fried dumplings are one of our faves. Even the coffee is pretty good. I must dine in some time in the future.

I am always quite sceptical when it comes to a coffee franchise, but Gloria Jean's is usually okay, and it's a good option when you just want a decent, fast coffee. Here however, the place was filthy and the coffee tasted bitter and foul. Not only that, but the staff were standing around chatting and were rude and disinterested.

I absolutely love going here! Not only are the staff friendly, upbeat and helpful but the products are so great! You can smell them before you walk through the door.
Everything is made cruelty free and they support charities that help the environment and wildlife.

Whenever I need a gift for someone, this is the first place I go.

Approximate cost: $5-10

I had heard a few nice things about this place, so a friend and I decided to check it out for breakfast. We paid $21 each for two eggs and bacon on toast, so when it arrived and the bacon oily and so tough you had to use fingers to break it apart, we were obviously disappointed.
The bacon was flavourless and had the consistency of cardboard, my poached eggs tasted like vinegar, his fried eggs were burnt, and my toast was overdone, whereas his was doughy and barely toasted.
My flat white had half a cup of froth. The fresh orange juice was good.

The lady who took my order also had a bad attitude and didn't even bother wasting a smile.
We didn't finish our meals.

I do not plan on going back, I would not recommend this business.

Approximate cost: $20

When I was younger, my nan introduced me to this place for birthday dinner and I loved it! So much so I regularly asked her or my mother to take me for my birthday other years.

Recently, after having not being back for at least 4 years, I went with a couple of friends. It was a very disappointing experience.
The staff who greeted us were not friendly, though some others were. The food was (for the most part) dry and old tasting, though they claim it is made fresh for each meal. There was very little range and none of left with a full stomache (we got maccas merely an hour later.)
The desserts were good, but nothing too exciting which was a let down.

I don't think I will be returning soon.

I have never sat and had a sandwich or coffee here- though the display cabinet of sandwich fillings looks fresh and inviting, the place just feels a little cramped for me to be able to enjoy myself.
There are lots of fresh baked breads to take home though, and I love their pides! Everyone has always been rather friendly to me, so no complaints there.

I love coming here. I work very close, so on my breaks I often wander down for a coffee and sweet. Some of the cakes are too big (sickly to finish) but all I have tried have been delicious. The staff are very friendly, especially Amber, who also makes great coffee, despite the beans having no great flavour of their own (I am assured they are hunting for a new supplier.)
Very small with only two communal tables plus another outside, but a nice atmosphere when the six year old girl isn't running around behind the counter or loudly bothering staff and customers.

I have been twice, and on both occasions the ladies have been quite rude to me, but polite to older customers. I have never seen any of the staff even smile.
The coffee was revolting and made too cool. The food is boring, so I settled on a muffin which tasted stale.

Cheap Indian food. Quite tasty, but if you want really really spicy food, you need to tell them again and again, just to make sure. The food is not the best quality, but for the price, it's really good.
The staff are friendly and fast.
