Nice atmosphere, but very expensive for food for the family. Cabinet is quite minimal. Using the Alternative brand milks which I personally don't like in coffees. Nice bar within. Better for a date night than a day out. Playground close by is great and a dairy for cheaper food!

We ended up coming here on a Friday after finding the place we intended on going to had closed. We have enjoyed the food at the General at the Mount in the past. Had a very enjoyable meal here. I had 200g eye fillet steak which was excellent and cooked perfectly to my liking (medium rare). My wife had the crusted lamb fillet, also excellent. I noticed they have a special price steak on Thursdays so might be back soon.

Customer service was exceptional, and service was fast. I can't rate the food as I ordered a coffee it was delicious. The only thing that I would recommend is getting equal or splendors as the artificial sugar they use does not cut the mustard. All in all great place great people beautiful surroundings.

Love this place, never had a problem eating here or the original in the mount. Always great staff, helpful and friendly.

Both the lamb and steak were faultless,cooked to perfection exactly as requested. The sauce that comes with the lamb is truly exceptional and the beef jus we could have drunk in a mug. The meals are large and vegetables are included. A real highlight is the staff. They're young, international, friendly and efficient. When you combine that with a nothing is too much trouble attitude you know there is a good team. Well done and thank you for our 3rd perfect visit

Visited for mother's day this morning. Service was excellent , despite the fact they were very busy. Polite staff, prompt orders and delivery of coffee to the table. I ordered the eggs benedict and I am being 100% truthful when I say they were the best I've ever had. The poached eggs were served on sourdough with a homemade sauce which was absolutely delicious. They also added a charred broccolini which added further layers of beautiful flavour. Top notch. My son loved his pancakes, husbands meal was great and the coffee was excellent. Top marks! Thank you Maude!
