Came here for brunch with a friend - friendly staff, quite busy and noisy. So wouldn't recommend bringing along kids with a pram as it can get quite cramped and chaotic.
Good soft baked eggs and Brioche. Has decent selection to satisfy vegetarians and non-vegetarians.

Approximate cost: $18.00

Great little family oriented joint with good selection of sandwiches, light meals, pastries and their famous omelettes Good coffee, decent seating both indoor and outdoor.

Approximate cost: $12.00

Stayed here on business trip as the office is located on Collins Street. Short walk up Southern Cross Station, convenient location if heading to the Stadium and offices around the Docklands area, with trams along Collins Street that will take you right into the CBD and Chinatown. Room is decently sized and clean, as are the general areas of the hotel.

Approximate cost: $200

A cosy, bright, busy, family-oriented neighbourhood cafe. Always busy, especially on weekend mornings. Good coffee, the Hippie Feast with eggs, herb roasted tomato, garlic mushrooms, kumara hash and wilted spinach - a favourite. They cater for the gluten intolerant amongst us too.

Authentic Kamaage udon, freshly made and boiled on the spot to perfection daily. Udon is weighed according to size ordered. Self-service joint, very organised - place your order for the type of udon (a variety of hot and cold combinations available as well as additional toppings if you fancy any), move on to the next station to pick your favourite variety of freshly fried crispy tempura ranging from fried vegetable to shrimp tempura, chicken sesame tempura and many more. Prices of Udon is fixed and published on the boards, so whichever you pick you know the base price of the noodles but depending on your fancy and how many piece of tempura you pile on with your noodles, the price of the meal can be as affordable as $6 (noodles only), or as expensive as $25 or more.
Decently spacious seating, easy to find a seat as they have 2 levels of seating.
Overall, it's still good value and great food. Would definitely recommend.

Great variety of fresh produce and quality products. Not your usual daily grocer as the prices can be quite steep. Professional friendly and helpful staff.

Great variety of cakes, sold by weight so you can buy as little or as much as you want. All freshly baked and delicious. Some on offer include:- Strawberry sponge cake, Cookies and Cream cheese cake, Chocolate cake, Blondie etc.
The Nutella Kurtosh is an all time favourite.

Great, friendly, experienced and professional staff. Nice environment and every massage treatment I've been to here, has been consistent in quality. And they are quite good at picking out your "pain points" and working on those points.

Very convenient service provided by Blue and White Dry Cleaners - you can just drive in, park in a waiting bay and a staff will service you from your car. Service is quick, efficient and very friendly. They are particularly good at cleaning gowns and expensive clothing. I had a white wool jacket dry-cleaned somewhere else and it came back with grease splattered all over a sleeve. Took it to Blue and White and they sorted me out.
Price-wise, they are tipping on the higher-end compared to even Lawrence Dry Cleaners. But all in all, their service and attitude makes up for the price tag.

Charim is a new addition to Crows Nest. Reasonably priced dishes. Fresh, quality ingredients used and food full of flavours. The Sundubu, Jeon (fried pancakes) and the Japchae (stir fried glass noodles) were delicious and always a favourite amongst friends.
