Where all the fun happens, whether that be a fancy dress costume, helium balloons, decorations and gift ideas, PartyShop is the one-stop shop. The staff are super friendly and happy to make suggestions when you're stuck for ideas. I went to a theme party after shopping at PartyShop and had the best time. There were no awkward moments having been outfitted and comfortable with my choice.

If you like spicey food, this is a great place for you. Nandos specialises in peri-peri chilli inspired flavours with their chicken. The venue is comfortable even if a bit on the small side. I especially like eating there at a lunch time or before a movie at the nearby cinema. It's licensed, it's fun, delivers full-bodied flavour and is affordable.

I've eaten a lot of quality Thai food, including home cooked. The Thai Coconut food is very authentic. Most of the ingredients are sourced locally and all the preparation is done daily. Great value, high-quality food, good sized menu. Only area it's let down is the wooden seats and hard surfaces make staying and making conversation less likely than the other quality Thai in Shepparton. Definitely worth visiting. Five stars overall.
