Fantastical range of high end chocolates, including all the classics and a few more that are a little more obscure. As the name suggests, there's a strong Mexican influence to their chocolate.

The shop is small but cozy, and I found the staff friendly and helpful, and the selection of books on sale to be first rate, with a good mix of older, rarer books and more recent material.

The shop is large but somewhat poorly ventilated. The selection of books is wide, but tends to concentrate on a mixture of current bestsellers and recently delisted titles. The staff were polite enough, but seemed more interested in talking to each other than to customers.

Friendly staff, good quality food and an excellent range of drinks make this a winner. If the weather is pleasant, it's great to sit on the balcony overlooking Swanston Street and watch the passing parade

The place suffers a little from being so small - here's hoping they get successful enough to move to roomier premises at some point. Aside from that, though, the place is just lovely - the cupcakes are all so cute and so very very tasty.

A fine cafe - we had a lovely Sunday breakfast there, at anout 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Friendly staff, speedy service, and they have a good range of classic cafe fare at reasonable prices.

A cute little licensed cafe with reasonable food and drink at reasonable (for the city) prices, and excellent service. I like to go there before or after visiting nearby City Library.

Their advertising promises "Melbourne's Best Burgers" - and if there's a better one somewhere around, I'm not sure my tastebuds could survive it! The very best it take away food :)

Despite my arriving late, the hairdresser who did my hair was friendly, very receptive to what I wanted, and very professional. My hair looks great, and I left there absolutely determined to go back again next time I need a trim.

The Toff has a number of different rooms to cater to different tastes. It's a great and varied venue, that runs movie nights, live musical acts and even just some rooms for good old fashioned drinking with your mates.
