Being regular visitors to the Utzi Cafe situated in the Burnside Village, shopping complex, Portrush Rd. We found this Cafe has recently changed owners, which to our mind is an improvement. The seating options, are very well arranged, all done out with white tables, comfortable chairs that are white with black backs. The counter is a white granite with black service areas, all creating a clean tidy modern appearance. We enjoyed a very nice coffee, along with a delicious snack while in the centre shopping. The service was excellent, with a well organised service team enabling you to be attended to with out a long wait. Due to the location being in the centre of the shopping area, across from Coles, this cafe is very busy. But we could not fault the service or food options. The coffee was smooth warm, with a pleasant lingering after taste. Well worth the visit. Good Coffee, free papers, & WiFi.

The Levee Food Company. Seaport Launceston.
It is New Years Eve 2017. Eleven of us had a booking at the Levee Food Company Launceston down at the wharf. On arrival we were enthusiastically welcomed and seated in a comfortable modern open plan restaurant, with views across the wharf to boats that were moored, people walking across the decking. This was not a fixed menu, New Years Eve special. We had the choice of a full varied menu from, appetisers, entree, mains through to desserts, accompanied with an excellent wine list. Even though the restaurant was maxed out, we found all our orders were well presented, with out delay and found the service was excellent. Outside there was life music and just along the wharf a fireworks display at 9.30pm & Midnight. What a fantastic evening as we celebrated and danced to the music and watched the fire works. We will probably book again for next year for a repeat, an excellent night out.

Gracious Grace Cafe Lillydale Victoria Australia
Cafe, Catering, Functions
This Modern spacious Cafe, on Castella street in Lillydale Victoria, with the Athenaeum next door, is very popular. We enjoyed dining and relaxing on the purpose built alfresco area, that over looks the Melba Park. Three of us with small children found the cafe a very comfortable place for brunch. The cafe is attached to the museum, so good for the children while we relaxed with a cake and coffee. We found the service good, with a free morning paper, free WiFi, with lots of seating options. A good call.

From relaxing with a fine wine, or dining in the restaurant, or watching and participating in a number of activities, adventure rides, cliff walking or climbing, or launch your self off a 20 metre cliff on a zip line, or take part in a canon charge aboard a sailing ship, as you cruise the lagoon.

The Haus Bar & Kitchen Hahndorf
An unusual feature at The Haus Bar & Kitchen in Hahndorf, is the welcoming hostess outside, who will accompany you if required, this is a brilliant way to introduce clients to the restaurant Cafe. We have continually found The Haus welcoming, with an excellent menu, plus morning paper, and Wifi. There are four different dining areas with a variety of seating options. A recent addition to the large alfresco area that overlooks the street, is an opening adjustable roof. We ordered a late breakfast from an excellent menu, eggs florentine with salmon, scrambled eggs, with double smoked bacon, on thick cut sour dough toast. Both meals were perfectly cooked and presented, the coffee is always of a high standard at The Haus, a pleasurable relaxing breakfast, recommended.

Fred Eatery Mt Barker Rd Aldgate SA
On a loverly early summers morning, we decided to go to Fred Eatery in the Adelaide Hills, Aldgate. This is a new modern style Cafe / Restaurant with a fresh green & white decor, blond wooden tables and chairs and parquet flooring, enhanced by glistening tiles and lots of potted plants. Four seperate dining areas, including upstairs and alfresco, provide a wide range of seating and vistas, and interesting ornaments and decorations catch the eye constantly.
We selected from a menu that offered an excellent Early Morning Breakfast, 7.30am - a 11.45am. All Day Breakfast 7.30am - 3pm. Lunch 12noon - 3pm. Truffled Scrambled Eggs, and A Little Of The Lot. Both dishes were of a very generous size, cooked to perfection. Fred's unique custom blended coffee was very smooth and tasty, but not bitter. The service could not be faulted, very friendly, efficient, professional. For us the whole breakfast experience was a delight, and will definitely recommend and return.
