Loved dining here! The food is amazing and I loved the idea of paying for the size of dish but then selecting whatever combo you liked. Really tasty!!

We had lunch and i tried their mixed meal special.
I selected the chicken and vegetable sides to go with it. A bit pricy for what you get but you can also include salad selection.
Large plate was $25.

You have a choice of dining in or takeways here. One 2 different occasions I have purchased 2 x takeaway meals, Slow cooked Beef Cheeks, and Delicious Chicken. Portions of meat are very generous, with a choice of vegetables available plus potato. They usually also offer a "top-up" of a choice of salads...YUM!
Very friendly staff, excellent fast service, with dining outdoors when the day allows.
Coffees are probably the best in town, my fav being Mocha.
Plenty of choice in counter foods too.
We are planninbg to return to have a meal there in situ. Usually a daily choice of 3-4 main course meats.

Slow cooked food that’s just like home cooking with delicious flavours. Excellent value and my tip for two people would be to share the $25 plate, rather than purchasing individual smaller plates.
