    The awesome German Feast can actually be ordered even if you are not of German decent! Try it and see.

    If you've got a big appetite I strongly recommend the German Feast with scrambled eggs and a side of hash browns.

    They've now expanded into a back room. The place is now far larger than it ever was, so waiting for a table is a thing of the past.

    Pretty good, but I prefer the Pancake Manor in Brisbane, or the Pancake Parlour in Canberra.

    Compared to last time the pancakes were cooked, big advantage. They weren't that busy (Clipsal & the Fringe) & service was mediocre. Hot Chocolate was tepid, water glasses hot from the dishwasher

    Waited 25 min on a totally dirty table without being noticed (we waved etc.). Plus extremely loud (baby's and complaining customers about mixed up orders...) We left.
