Popped in for a quick lunch and was pleasantly surprised.
The food was tasty, well-presented, and fairly priced. Iced coffee hit the spot, and the pressed apple juice was excellent. My wife had the barramundi, which she really enjoyed.
Overall, it was a good experience. I can’t comment on how it compares to the local competition, but this place definitely caught our eye—and we’re glad it did.

Ordered via menu log. I was a little apprehensive based on reviews but I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered my food about an hour earlier than I normally would have because they do have warnings on their dishes that the wait times may be long.
I called up the restaurant to double check something in my order and the guy who I spoke to on the phone was lovely and helpful. I ended up receiving my food 45 minutes later (much much sooner than I expected due to the estimated wait time).
Food was piping hot and delicious. I think that if other people do have issues with the wait time, please be patient and kind to the restaurant staff when you call in. It’s a very busy and popular place after all. There are warnings all over their menu informing you that wait times may exceed expectations, so order it earlier than you normally would, especially with large orders.

Went here after being first told about Hot Rock Pizza some 10 or so years ago, when my best friend (who passed in 2020) was a frequent visitor.
I can see why he loved it - my pepperoni pizza had a crisp base, lots of flavour and a good tomato sauce. If I lived in the area, I'm sure I'd be greeted like Norm was on Cheers.
Will have to try one of your gourmet/specialist range next time. Recommended if you're in the area and love a good pizza!

Fresh fish and seafood on display, clean, organised shop. We ordered Flake, Chips and a Cheeseburger for takeaway. The flake was the best I’ve ever had, tender and juicy, not greasy or overcooked. Chips were great and the medium serve was very generous! Cheeseburger was tasty, fresh roll and very enjoyable!
Definitely return next time we’re in Bendigo!

The food is always delicious, with generous portions and fair prices. Delivery is fast and everything arrives hot. I especially love their chilli coconut prawns – the flavor is incredible, and when mixed with rice, it’s absolutely amazing. One of my favorite dishes. Highly recommended!
