We stopped here onced to pick up a light lunch of salad and sandwiches. The food was relatively moderate and enough to keep you full till your next meal. Then again, there are plenty of eateries and bakeries along Main Street to fill you up, should you go hungry again. Apart from the food and accomodation service, the building is a photography favourite as it has a huge horse head wall sculpture with an iron metal bell next to it.

I really like the set up inside, there is an upper and lower dining level which creates a really nice atmosphere. Last time I went to the stables I had the vegetarian risotto which was fantastic, big serving too so I couldn't get through all of it. I also had two latte's which were also above expectation their star barista must have been on shift that day. I didn't even realise that this cafe was part of an accommodation service, there certainly don't advertise that part of the business in the cafe, so I can't really comment on the cleanliness of the bedsheets,; but if I ever get hold of an ultra violet light I'll keep you guys informed. There is an outside seating area available as well and the great thing is that there is a window set up where you can get bar service from outside too, this is great for the lazy in you.

This place offers ( in my opinion ) the best buffet lunch and dinner every day. The buffet offers a large variety including soups, salads, cold meats, curries!!!, German specialities, roast vegetables and meats, chips and much more. Also they have dessert buffet which are delicious. Last time I went there with some friends on a Sunday. Beautiful venue. Many people were there and there was a birthday party as well. The food was delicious and I wish I could eat more. My favorite food on that day was plum glazed pork chops. They had roasts, pickles, fried food, samosas and rice and curry and many more. The waiters are very friendly and they will come and pick up the used plates and cutleries.

However, other than that, there really wasn't all that much about this place that stood out in my mind, I guess it was the limited beers available, and that the service wasn't as good as some places. Yeah, it was okay, but certainly nothing grand.

Actually I wanted to go to Melbourne for a week, but I was too busy. Amble Bed and Breakfast in Hahndorf did the trick. I wouldn't usually pay $200 for an overnight stay, but I wouldn't usually stay in a bed and breakfast either so...there you go. Amble was really lovely, and I wasn't let down in any respect. One of the cleaners did accidentally walk in while I was changing at five minutes to checkout time, but that was more of a humorous incident than a let-down. The property is really beautiful. The couple who run the place have made a beautiful garden that surrounds the three separate little cottages, which back onto a big field with horses and beautiful trees. We stayed in the Amble Wren Cottage which was excellent. DVDs, free wireless, a television, miniature kitchen, sweet green oak tree wall-paper, cosy lighting, a heater and a spa. We didn't leave except to demolish all of Hahndorf's sausages and beers, stumble back and fall into the spa. Which, while we're on the topic, looked out onto a beautiful view of the countryside. The owners were very friendly but not invasive (well except for that one accident), the wifi was reliable and I got to watch Me, Myself & Irene in bed while drinking champagne. What more could you ask for? Oh, and complementary locally sourced breakfast ingredients - eggs, sausage, bacon and OJ. And fancy chocolates.

You can choose between three cottages, Wren, Over and Fern, each beautiful and stylish in their own unique way. All the cottages have a spa, come with breakfast provisions, chocolates. I figure $200 isn't really that bad, especially when your getting breakfast and free wifi, and parking isn't a prob. I've gotten cheap stays elsewhere where I've ended up having to spend heaps on extras.

If that was all there was to the store I really wouldn't have given it much time at all, let alone write a Yelp entry! But there is something else that makes this little store super cool.....little junk animals! In the front court yard is a selection of Mice, Ants and Pigs, made out of scrap metal that look super cool! I have put up a couple of pics, so make sure you check them out. The ants in particular are right up my deviant ally, complete with bazookas and mini-guns. They are a pretty decent price too considering the work and creativity that has gone into them. I wouldn't go up to Hahndorf just to check them out, but certainly poke your head in if you are around the area!
