Love Cold Rock! Always busy, which is a good sign. Nice idea for ice-creams even in this cold climate. It's great to see this new shop has been so successful. Well done to the hard working owners.

Music Man has real musicians behind the counter who know what they are talking about! I only go here to get my music supplies because they do the job right! Best music shop in Ballarat.

Villa Hunter has unique soft furnishings and very cute babies clothes. Krystle is great to work with, even coming into my family's homes to see the decor before she makes up her wonderful creations.

Wilson's has the old-style greengrocer's feel as you go in. You see the family still stacking shelves and greeting customers. And the produce is amazing. Only the very best. Some of the deli and specialty items are famous in town!
