We stopped to have a look at the 12 apostles and was feeling a bit hungry so drove on to Port Campbell for something to eat. After checking out a number of places, all of which were so expensive, we came across this fabulous fish and chip place.

We place our order for some flake and chips and it was ready in no time at all. The flake was huge and chips crispy, we went across to the beach and enjoyed eating our meal with a fabulous view. Felt totally re-energised for the rest of the trip.

Very friendly customer service with a smile!

Our first stop on the Great Ocean Road had to be Lorne, it is so nice here but choosing somewhere to eat was difficult. We settled on this cafe as it seem quite busy, so we presumed it would have some great food.

I ordered the Fire Engine burger for myself, loved it, it had a little bit of heat and packed with flavour. Just what I needed for the big drive. My girlfriend had the Foul Burger, which is chicken schnitzel with salad in a bun. We both enjoyed our meals, were served promptly considering how busy it was and received friendly service.

Spent our last night of our trip with family in Geelong before heading off for the Great Ocean Road, it was suggested that we have our going home meal here.

My family are regulars at the restaurant and wanted us to experience how great it is. Well, we definitely enjoyed ourselves. We all shared our meals as our family wanted us to try everything. Loved their curry puffs and curries, my favourite being the satay. Wow. It was great. We stayed for about 2 hours, it was enjoyable. The staff were very attentive, the atmosphere was pleasant, restaurant clean, comfortable seating and not over decorated.

Will be returning when we visit next time.

My girlfriend and I stopped here for a coffee while have a look around Geelong.

Really enjoyed our espresso, fortnately we were not in a hurry as it seemed like forever before we finally received them. We thought they had forgotten about us.

Certainly a very relaxed atmosphere, no one seemed to be in a hurry. We didn't order any food as we could only imagine how long that would have taken. The menu did look appetising though.

We ordered some take away from here as the menu looked great and reasonably priced.

Really enjoyed the Meat Deluxe and Tall Boy pizzas, I did have them add some extra hot salami as I love hot and spicy pizza. You don't need to ask for extra toppings as our pizzas were overflowing, they tasted fresh and authentic. My girlfriend tried the Polo Gnocchi and salad and loved it. Our order was ready as soon as we arrived to pick it up, was great no waiting time.

Will definitely be ordering again when we return.

Had a special family get together dinner here whilst holidaying and staying with them in Melbourne. This restaurant is in a fabulous location with the best views. The windows are large so wherever you are seated, you still get a view.

We certainly picked the right place and and right day as it was Super Tuesday where they have 50% of selected mains and desserts. Of course most of use ordered steak, I had the rib eye, the meat was so tender, cooked med-rare. It came with creamy mashed potato and I asked for the peppercorn sauce. Wow, this steak exceeded my expectations, it was perfect. My girlfriend enjoyed her chicken parma, all meals were very generous. My girlfriend and others had dessert, their main delight was the sticky date pudding. I am not much of a dessert person but it did look delicious.

All our meals were served in a timely manner, the staff were quite friendly considering how busy it was.

Overall, exceptional food and service. I would suggest you try them on a tuesday as their prices really are quite high, but you will notice the quality.

Had a craving for some fish and chips and it was suggested by family that we go here.

The fish was so fresh, I had a piece of flake, it was larger than I expected and cooked perfectly. The chips were crispy and we returned the following day as I wanted to try the souvlaki, which was awesome, loved the garlic sauce.

Fantastic food and fast friendly service.

This cafe is just around the corner from my cousins house so we all went for a bit of treat as it was the first day of our holiday break here.

My cousins go here all the time and I can understand why. They deliver some excellent coffee, delicious food and have very friendly staff.

My girlfriend loved this cafe, she said she was in heaven with the cakes being so amazing, she'd never had better. I tried the pancake stack. Yummo! Not only do they have sweet treats but they also have a great range of savouries. Everything looked and tasted delicious. Enjoyed the coffee aswell.

I have mixed feelings about this fish and chip shop, my first visit was excellent, chips perfect and fish tasted fresh. My burger was huge and delicious. But with my most recent visit my chips and fish were soggy, certainly not drained enough. Yes they were busy, but surely they can still do a proper job with draining the oil.

I am still willing to give them another try as people do have off days and maybe this was one of them.

I have been here a few times now with my girlfriend and a few of our friends. Well worth the money at around $20 for all you can eat. So much choice, pizzas, salads, roasts, chinese, seafood and you cannot forget the desserts.

Make sure you go here with an appetite because you will want to try a bit of everything. Our stomachs were bulging when we left, we certainly ate way tooo much. Worth every cent.
