These guys produce some of the most amazing Certified Biodynamic (Organic) Shiraz and Cab Sav. Their website is easy to use and ordering was simple using the PayPal system, don't worry they also take credit and debit cards. We ordered a mixed dozen of the Shiraz (2011) & Cab Sav (2010) on the Tues and it arrived by Fri, postage for a dozen was free to anywhere in Aus. We checked our order with the owner and he was very polite and helpful. We have since become members of the winery and will definitely be visiting next time we are in NSW. A good Aussie winery, producing a top quality, chemical free, drop.

Myself, the wife and kids, found this place on a Saturday, when looking for a place to have lunch. This cafe did not disappoint. The staff are very friendly and attentive and the food was tasty with ample portions on offer. There are limited choices from the menu and most are pastry or bread based, however, it hit the spot and was good quality. There were vegetarian choices as well. The coffee was very good and there was a good selection of healthy drinks in the fridge for the kids. They are also a bakery so we were able to take home some good quality loafs. All in all a good experience, I would go back.

I recently took my boys to this zoo and we loved it. It was set up to educate adults and kids alike about various African and Australian fauna and the staff did this with a passion. The keepers are very friendly and helpful and the experience is similar to that of an African safari. We have since been back and had another unique experience. When we went the restaurant was being renovated and a catering company was providing hot food. This food was poor quality and grossly over priced, so recommend you take a picnic until the restaurant is functional again. This zoo has become a regular event for the boys and I, highly recommended.

These guys and ladies will sort you out for a professional, quick, stylish trim or style cut for a reasonable price. They are very friendly and welcoming and will remember you after your first visit so that next time they will feel like old friends. The only draw back is the queue of people waiting which speaks volumes for how popular they are. They are also good with little ones as they cut my 4yo and 20mo boy's hair. They only take cash.

I take my wife and kids to the Ceres Enviro Park most weekends. The liscened cafe provides tasty, organic food at a reasonable price. There is plenty of variety on the menu and I would rate the coffee as the best in Melbourne. The cafe is child friendly with a large enclosed playground with tree house, caves, boats and a train carriage with activities within. The cafe and park operate with a sustainable philosophy in mind. The decor is rustic and outdoorsy with a comfortable farm like feel. This place has become a weekend tradition for my family.

With my wife, 4yo and 1yo old boys in tow we arrived at the common man with high hopes for a hearty meal, a glass of quality red (milk shakes for the boys) and a kid friendly environment. All these expectations were met. The staff were welcoming, attentive and fast with service. The food was top notch and the selections of wine and beers were good, a few more red choices by the glass would have been great. The kids were kept entertained by a large selections of books and colouring activities. All in all a greating wining and dining experience, we'll be back.
