We confirmed we were after take away coffees, she politely told us to head to the counter. The attendant at the counter was so friendly and welcoming got our order from us. We slyly checked out the place while waiting. The menu looked great and reasonably priced. Our barista gave us a holla once the coffee was up. As we walked out the guy who served us was waiting on a table over the far side and nodded and smiled as we left. Who are these people that work here.... can they possibly run training sessions for all other hospitality outlets across the country.... On another note... my coffee was fantastic. 5 stars creamy cafinated milky lush coffee.....

Employees clearly work as a dedicated team as everyone was VERY friendly and attentive, even when the place was packed.

Fantastic, open, comfortable atmosphere with a hipster vibe, but people of all ages were filling the seats and seemed to be enjoying it all, too.

Okay, it really isn't anywhere near as flash as the ones you would find in the inner city, but for a regional coffee shop it certainly does have some charm about it. As usual I ended up grabbing a pot of tea, and that certainly did the job that I was looking for, because it wasn't bad at all. Oh, and the service was pretty good too. It is certainly a place worth checking out if you want some coffee in Mildura.

After a drive around voicing my disappointment about some apparent 'advancements' made in the last 5 years since my last quick visit, a friend suggested they could take me somewhere that would restore my faith. Driving through the impressive gates of Varapodio Estate the first thing I noticed was that it has a very relaxed feel about it & I suddenly felt transported to the delicious Italian countryside - something about being surrounded by olive trees, the gorgeous sunny day & laughter coming from inside the café made me immediately comfortable! It was a busy time but the owners Donna & Joe made a real effort to attend to each of us individually & as Joe led us through a very informative (& delicious) product tasting we got chatting about how the café came to be & I learned that this family owned business is a very clever take on diversification in an often harsh environment. The café is brimming with purchase options - from the estates' own divine olive oils (made on-site), high quality soaps & creams, afternoon tea selections & items from surrounding producers, I opted for a couple of gift bags of award winning infused oils & am now addicted to their caramelised balsamic vinegar! Varapodio Estate has such a unique & respectful nod to family history that honours the bond of family & the land. I loved this place! My top tips are: 1.) Make sure you take the time to sit on the veranda at the front of the café overlooking the olive trees, it's really pretty special & wish I'd seen it at night! 2.) Take a few minutes to learn about the oils from the owners - it's really interesting & at the same time you get to sample each one! 3.) Grab a bottle of the caramelised balsamic vinegar & the augmented lemon & lime oil too..these are my two faves & as I can't just pop in to get another bottle Joe has agreed to supply me via mail!

Mind you, that pub was something like 5 km away from the centre of Mildura, so I guess there is that.

The taps beers are great, and the service is pretty awesome as well. Yeah, definitely a place to check out.

We thought it would be a nice treat even though they were $12.50. They were the most horrible thing I have ever eaten! They tasted nothing like Shiraz and were filled with cracked black pepper!! At first I passed it off as it being the peppery Shiraz flavour from the wine, till I bit into a piece of peppercorn! I had checked the label prior to buying them and black pepper was NOT on the ingredient list. No one could eat them so I melted them down to make into something else. I did call the company direct to tell them how disgusting they were & that the label was incorrect but they didn't really seem to care.
