Delicious pizza, especially their gourmet range (try their Arabiata)!!! They use excellent quality ingredients that are fresh, & they are very generous with their toppings. Although the dine in area is not large it is nicely presented and they are able to accommodate groups of 10 or more. We have often taken interstate or international guests who are fond of pizza to this place and they have all loved it! You can see the pizzas being made and they owners are both passionate and committed to providing the tastiest pizza's. The other meals on the menu are also very good. Because we have small children it is difficult to take them out for a 'fine dining' experience, so going out to Harro's keeps everyone happy. Week-end nights are very busy so you will need to book ahead (or if you live close by you have the option of take away). Sometimes we'll drive all the way there just to pick up an order ourselves. Price are also very good value for the quality (remember this is not anything like your pizza hut or local budget pizza store).

It started off a fabulous concept to have a all in one organic supermarket but alas since opening a few years ago I believe that the value and service has dropped. While the staff are pleasant, the prices are inflated (they are much more than the same organic lines that you can purchase in other supermarkets or smaller type retailers). Also they keep changing their lines so you get use to one product and then it suddenly disappears. When I rated the "service" 3 stars it was not directed toward the actual staff but more towards the general service supplied by Macro and it's culture towards customers. I still regularly shop their due to convenience but would prefer to go elsewhere if their were options closer by (thankfully this site has already provided some). You still can't beat the smaller business where the owners are often passionate about organics and ready to be of assistance for their customers. Prices are usually better there as well. :-)
