Nurturing families with Pregnancy Massage, Induction Massage, Post Natal Massage, Childbirth Education and Birth Doula Support in Melbourne. A nurturing, prenatal massage with a difference. Not only does Sarah Goldberg of Nurtured Birth have over 15 years of experience providing quality massage, but she is also a fully trained and experienced birth attendant (doula) who truly understands what your body is going through - and about to go through. Prenatal and postnatal massages are offered in the Nurtured Birth rooms in Windsor, or you can utilise Sarah's mobile service for a massage in your home.

Sarah's personality is beautiful, she inspires trust, her voice is soothing. If you're worried about getting a massage at your last stage of pregnancy because some practitioners might be a bit "brusque", you don't have to worry about that with Sarah because she is very gentle and also respectful. I highly recommend her.

Borsch, Vodka and Tears

Reviewed By LikethetripFantastic - Ontario's Near North, Canada

Went here with my son and his friend in Easter Monday. The place was packed but we got a great little table right at the front in the window. Great vibe from the mostly young crowd. We each ordered from the Mains-- goulash, lamb chops and a schnitzel dish. All were excellent and we'd recommend any one of them. Hearty food that is traditional but with a twist.

Morris Jones Bar & Restaurant

Morris Jones has been lovingly restored from the 1887 landmark heritage warehouse building and modernised by award winning architect Russell & George. Located in the bustling Windsor end of Chapel Street serving ‘Cali-Jap’, a Californian take on modern Japanese, by executive chef Matthew Butcher, we are one of Melbourne’s leading restaurants. Come and indulge in our inspiring dishes alongside an array of specialized signature cocktails.

This is not our first visit to Morris Jones. We have previously had dinner here for a birthday. This time we were having lunch on the weekend. We prebooked the booth out the front (great spot). Our French waitress provided very attentive service. The set lunch menu was amazing. I ordered the quail for entree, wild barramundi for the main and the violet crumble for desert. There was special on Moët and Chandon so we ordered a bottle.
Very highly recommend given this restaurant a go.

Mt Erica Hotel

Reviewed By MelbournePixie - Melbourne

Obviously this recently renovated pub is providing a new and exciting space for the locals because over a month in we could get to try it. The pasta dish with asparagus and broad beans was excellent but the steak meal overpriced with a dollop of salad that added to the oil level of the steak and oversized chips. Good selection of wines and a great red we will try again but go at a less popular time. It’s was simply too noisy tonight.

Wonderland Bar

Reviewed By MrDavetheSarks - Melbourne, Australia

Okay, I can't necessarily say that this is the best bar on Chapel street, but it is certainly getting really close. The one thing that I thought was really cool was the vault, which looked like it was part of an old bank, that has been converted into a private room. Also the outdoor area is magnificant, despite it being on the road. While I have never been a fan of outdoor Seating on the sidewalk, Wonderland makes it up by having some really comfortable couches, which means that you can sit here and enjoy the ambience of Chapel Street.

Windsor Siding

Reviewed By Victorianlad - Melbourne, Australia

This park played host to a railway line linking Windsor and St Kilda for a few short years around 1860, but that was closed when the direct line through South Yarra opened - hence the name 'Union Street.'
Until about 1978, briquette trains used to shunt at Windsor on their way to Dendy Street, Brighton. I can recall many wagons being railed in from Victorian country stations in the 1970s with the famous E class electric locomotives hauling the goods trains.
Today, Windsor Siding has a playground for children, a tennis wall, an oval of sorts, some lovely Callistemons and Eucalypts growing well and a skate park. It is a pleasant inner city park.

La la Land

Reviewed By MrDavetheSarks - Melbourne, Australia

The problem with having a bar in Chapel Street is that there are quite a lot here already, so I guess you either need a theme that sets you apart from everybody else, or you simply have to be so cool that everybody flocks there just because. Unfortunately, other than the fact that the place is really red, there is nothing about this place that really stood out for me all that much. Sure, he does have a decent happy hour, and some comfortable couches, but then again so do all the others. Anyway, while it isn't a bad bar - the service was okay, and the atmosphere quite decent, there wasn't much about this place that would really draw me back.

10. The Windsor Workshop

115 Chapel St | Level 1, Windsor, Stonnington, Victoria 3181, Australia +61 421 042 251
