Billy’s Lounge

Reviewed By TwoSheds57

A day with seniors today snd a very nice day it was to. But, they weren’t asking me for cafe recommendations and that’s how we ended up at Billy’s Lounge. Its current three rating would have excluded it from my list if I’d been choosing places to go. I’m not always right of course. Sometimes it’s good to go to a place like this just to help gauge how good much of the rest of Melbourne’s food scene is.So, how was it then. I’d say just ok and largely endorse the current low or mid range rating. I’d give it 2.7, just above a pass. It’s a pleasant open cafe/bistro with a modern fit out. It was doing a very good trade when we arrived and we were told we might have to wait up to 20 minutes for our meals. The menu looked ok with some reasonable sounding dishes on it. We were served quickly and pleasantly. I started with a coffee which was average but ok, I thought. No prizes but no no major problems either. I had the chilli scrambled eggs for main. It had decent heat but with an unusual spice or spices which left a slightly odd after taste. On the plus size the dish was moderately well presented and was a decent size. There was a good serve of bacon as I’d added that as an extra. The grilled chilli on top of the dish was a nice touch. The egg itself in the dish was cooked reasonably well.I also tried the bruschetta. I’ve never encountered one like it. The tomato was cut into long slices instead of being diced. The bread (not toast) barely had any oil on it so it hadn’t softened and was excessively chewy. The method did not make it easy or pleasant to eat. On the plus side one of our party had the arancini balls and enjoyed them. Overall, it’s an average place for me with fairly prosaic food. But, it was a pleasant and convenient place in the middle of Westfield Doncaster to prop and have a nice catch up.

Loved this place and found it through the Entertainment Book! The breakfast I ordered was scrumptious and my friend had the French Toast which was truly yum!Needs a booking as it’s quite limited seating and the car park is small too.Highly recommend for something special.

We had a business meeting at this place and really enjoyed their lamb salad. My colleague ordered the burger on beetroot brioche bun with very nice hot chips on the side. Serving is huge and worth the price. Service was good. We will definitely visit this place again.

The Shingle Inn

Reviewed By Snapshot22

The menu descriptions sounded delicious, but when the dishes came out we were horrified - we thought they made a mistake and brought out something from a kids' menu. seriously! For $16.90 a plate from the lunch menu, you would expect a decent sized portion. I ordered a lamb dish and I could not see a single piece of lamb in it, just a big ball of flour and cheese sitting in some tomato sauce. The inside was cold and while the staff were very helpful and and brought me another one; just good service alone could not save the situation. We paid way too much for what looked like stuff that came out from the frozen food supermarket aisles, heated or fried up. The burger was small , grilled chicken inside it was dry and tasteless and didn't look grilled; fish and chips were so puny in portion my 2-year old could finish it. Simply horrific experience that has left a very bad taste in my mouth. If we hadn't paid already, I would have refused to pay. The wait staff are not to fault, I just can't believe the business owners dare to operate like this! Even the cakes were on the pricier side when there are better-tasting ones elsewhere. Go elsewhere.

Mozza Pizzeria Napoletana

Experience dining as you do at Nonna's house when visiting Mozza Pizzeria on Doncaster Road in Doncaster. This trendy, casual restaurant mixes dark wood panelling with quirky touches such as a Vespa scooter and eclectic artwork to set a chilled out vibe,

We all had a great meal except for my calamari, won't order it again, it was a bit rubbery, much to my disappointment!!Service was great, very attentive and friendly waiters. Atmosphere was lovely on a nice balmy night and sitting outside undercover. It did get a bit loud, but that's like most restaurants these days. I will definitely go back. Bruschetta pizza is delicious.

Cherry Hill Tavern

Doncaster's favourite with great food and beverages, kids area, TAB facilities & much more. Make a reservation now!

Reviewed By McMillan46

Some many months back we visited and left disappointed as the establishment was not able to assist with a Gluten free menu. Today we returned as they had promised a new menu was in the making. NOTHING HAD CHANGED. The menu had no highlighted options. Meals when they arribed were presented with Luke warm chips and the salads came with no dressing. A very disappointing time especially for those who had poor options for their meal. We are so sad to hear your experience with our Hotel was an unhappy one. If you would like to contact the Hotel and speak with a manager, we would love to hear from you, and try and work out how to improve our Hotel. We try hard to accommodate everyone and do have Gluten free options on our menu. We hope to hear from you soon. ThanksThe Cherry Hill Tavern 9841 8122

Celebrated a friend’s birthday last week, and had dinner here. The food was reasonably priced and the staff were helpful and friendly. I had the seafood paella, and so did the birthday girl.Am planning to come back soon.

We were happy to stumble across this café which was the only one open early morning Sunday. Nice coffee and great bacon and egg sandwiches. Cozy atmosphere inside with friendly and efficient staff. Happy to recommend and look forward to returning.
