Jen makes the best scones for the devonshire tea. I asked for it to be a 'takeaway' and the containers of cream and jam were absolutely enormous. There are homemade chutneys, jams etc. It is a lovely homely atmosphere and I love nothing better than relaxing by sitting with my coffee and sandwich or cake

Loved the entrees - I found them to be better than the main courses. The main courses seem to be a little bland and not as tasty as I would like. Staff are very friendly

Approximate cost: $15

Whenever I want flowers for a special occasion, I ring my order through and check when certain flowers are coming in, so I can decide what I will have. The flowers are always to my liking and presented well

My family and I absolutely love the patty cakes and date scones. They are always fresh and flavoursome. I often buy them if I am going to a friends for morning tea

I love the massage chair with spa pedicure treatment - it feels like a total indulgence. I try and have one every couple of months. The staff are very friendly and make sure that you are relaxed

The best coffee in Melbourne. I get my daily fix of coffee, the staff are fantastic and always call you by your name. I have even rung them up when I am nearby to order my coffee and they have it ready for me. They sell the newspapers and all things that a milk bar do. It is totally amazing. Worth driving to Parkdale to get your hot coffee

I went to this restaurant last night and the food was authentic and very tasty. It is licensed and you can take your own wine. The seafood fry was amazing with fresh tiger prawns and fish in a homemade sauce. My friend is vegetarian and she had quite a selection to choose from. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Approximate cost: $15 -20

Just love this shop. Whenever you go in - there are new and interesting handmade treasures at quite a reasonable cost for the amount of work that has gone into them. This shop is well worth a visit for unusual handmade items

I had some framing done and was happy with the results. My daughter has done an artists' workshop and she said she learnt quite a lot during the classes and would recommend them to anyone who is just starting out

Carl is a Honda Specialist. I had been having trouble with my Honda Jazz and previous mechanics could not find the fault, but Carl was able to diagnose it and do the necessary repairs. I now go to him for all my car servicing
