I was a little disappointed in our visit to this restaurant recently. Sadly the food we ordered was heavily fried with little meat and a lot of vegetables. There are a lot of dishes that I do not eat. However our meal was basically satisfactory(food was not bad or anything and the service was fine) overall this is not my favourite restaurant and we probably would not return

I often shopped here for bread supplies on my way home from work but have noticed that more and more of the shop is taen up with party supplies which is fine in my books I needed to grab some supplies for my daughters 21st and they had everything I needed in one stop. Also the last time I visited I wanted some advice on breadmaking and the staff here were fabulous. The lady that served me referred me onto a gentleman and he gave me all the adivce I needed and gave me a flyer for breadmaing quantaties with his handwritten advice added. Even though they were busy they took the time to answer all my questions.

This is the book lovers dream. I went to this shop for the first time yesterday and I was in love. It is a second hand book dealership that has a section for rare or collectable books as well as having a good supply of contemprorary and popular reads. Out the front is a bargain table that start from a dollar. Inside I also found a box of cross stitch patterns and knitting patterns starting from 50cents each. For anyone my age or older you will be taen back in time with the array of fantastic vintage children story books.

Loved this restaurant. We had a family gathering there a few months ago and it was amazing the way we were served so quickly. We definately overordered we didn't need the entree as the main meal (pizzas)) was huge and we were offered a box to take the left over pizza home in. It was very busy so I am glad we booked the prices are very reasonable

I haven't been into this antique shop before and it is a little bit lie an Alladin's Cave filled to the brim with bits and peices. It is very crowded and disorganised but if you have the time to go through the shop and check out all the little nooks and crannies you are bound to find the bargain you are looking for. They have a nice little assortment of antique hat pins and I got myself a lovely pin dish and did enjoy the time I spent in the shop

Loved this shop it is full of the magnificent dried fruits, sweets and chocolates as well as locally produced oils, jams sauces etc. The prices are a little steep for the sweets and you can buy dried fruit cheaper but the quality is excellent. I paid $18-99 for two kilo bag of prunes that are so soft and absolutely top quality much nicer than you would get in the surpermarket well worth the trip

There are a full array of lovely lollies all different types and they also have the most magnificent home made soft nouget it was delicious so worth it...not cheap but you can get a lolly for the kids for a few dollars. They also do gift baskets

We went to this bakery for the first time today whilst we were doing a self guided day tour of the Barossa. There was a little bit of a wait to be served but it was well worth it. Lovely cakes we had the pecan pie, apple slice, apricot slice and a custard filled chocolate iced donut. Very enjoyable we also bought a take home pack of 12 choc muffins for $7. We didn't have the opportunity to try the hot food but it really smelled delicious. Eat in or take away
