This place is ever so popular, often fully packed on the weekends or around school time. The cafe itself has a gift shop as well full of jewellery, clothes and baby items. The food is interesting, not normaly cafe fare, more unusual combinations, rustic fare. THe coffee is nice, however your order is not always right. Not a bad place but I dont' see what the hype is about.

This place was ticking all the right boxes, the decor was lovely. Moody atmosphere. The fish cakes were the best I'd tasted, you got never ending rice! yayee! But then, chipped plates....what the? I wouldn't be caught dead having any chipped tablewear at my house, why oh why? i have to say that really let me down. However the rest of the meal was rather tasty. Some of the portions were small however that is to be expected with thai

This place is a great local haunt, the food is delicious. Everything is creamy and authentic. You can try all different veggo dishes and everything is delicious. Can't complain about this place at all. It's reasonably priced, a moody ambience. Just great!!

had high tea at eleanors. the room is delightful however we hovered a bit when we first arrived as staff didn't really explain how it all worked, which was a bit uncomfortable. All the cakes and savouries were tasty, the wine delicious and the ambience queenly! Was a lovely afternoon and a nice experience of what high tea is like!

this is a fav - cheap meals, byo & great flavour. the tables are packed together but ever time we've gone its been quiet,. the tables close together & the small simple room make for a cosy environment. Parking out the front, this place is easy to get to and the staff are friendly!

This review is for Cabrini Hospital, Malvern VIC

I was really very disappointed by the nursery at Cabrini. The midwives were demeaning, they all had a different set of policies and rules so it was impossible to know what to do. I was excluded from caring/feeding my premature baby. They didn't convey vital information to the paediatrician so they virtually held his progression back. I am convinced we got to take him home earlier because i spoke up and the paediatrician could see the midwives incompetence. I had high hopes of Cabrini but this let me down. the rooms are nice albeit the airconditioning was cold. nexttime Northpark is my choice

This review is for Dr Des Guppy, Brighton VIC

verified email - 29 May 2013

Guppy is a very very quiet introverted person however he seems to deal with patients well and he's open to listen to you which is great too. I was assigned him for my son by Cabrini. Thankfully he was there because the midwives on whilst i was there would have held his progression back. also he was greast after when we brought our tiny little 4lbs home and we rang him a few times concerned. we got calls back which is more than i can say for most gps!

This review is for Automatic Cafe, Southbank VIC

This place we found to be the cheapest restaurant on Southbank! and the busiest, expect to be in a long queue on a Sat night but it has a good variety of foods and moody ambience and a good view of the gas torches lining southbank

This review is for Riva, Elwood VIC

We have had a couple of work functions here. They have been a bit of fun. The views over the harbour are just amazing. Food is ordinary. The toilet is a pain to get to if you are in the upstairs private room, very very steep staircase to orienteer your way up and down!

This review is for The Pancake Parlour, Preston VIC

verified email - 28 May 2013

Pancake Parlour is what it is. Whilst the whole menu is quite pricy, the place is soooo handy being right next to the cinemas and they are open late. The U shaped booths are a bit of fun when you come with a group and the atmosphere in the restaurant is good. Not too quiet, not too loud and cosy! Usually you can get a shopadocket for 2 for 1 shortstack which always makes the place more appealing. I love the old school wobbly mirrors and old films! of course the paraphenalia on the walls that moves on the hour is just great

Approximate cost: $20
