Activity packs available for kids, toilets have a change table and seating arrangements include couches, tables for two or four & communal dining with bench seats or bar stools. My only little bugbear is that they have Thankyou branded soap bottles in the bathrooms and have refilled them with cheap soap... Which kind of flies in the face of the Thankyou brand. Other than that, it's awesome, by far the best cafe in the area and even better than its sister restaurant 'Kofi Bean' in the Main Street. Love it.

Who would have thought that in the middle of what is outer suburban industrial Lilydale one could…read morefind a cafe that is a very big cut above the usual chips and pie industrial estate take away shop? The Lilydale General is brand new and it's obvious that the creators care about good produce and know a thing or two about what the public are wanting these days. I spied products from Mount Zero and milk from Jonsey's Dairy. The fit out is great, though the music choice when I was there did nothing to add to the atmosphere. Metal? In the afternoon? In a cafe that has decor reminiscent of an American Diner meets hipster Melbourne Cafe? Very odd indeed. My long black was decent enough. Any bitterness I'd chalk up to the darker style roast of Coffee Supreme, rather than the technique of the barista. It's certainly going to be where I head when I find myself on the way out to the Yarra Valley and in need of a hit. Hopefully next time I'll be here at the right time for breakfast as the menu has some interesting options including fish tacos and pancakes!

One star for "cuteness", and had a clean bathroom (although the womens needed the trash emptied)…read more There were 3 people at a table when I arrived. 4 people visibly working. Nobody acknowledged my presence. I had to ask if I can sit. Was told I can sit anywhere but order at the counter. Separate wine counter that said tastings till 4pm (its only 3) but it looked shut down. Despite looking at the menu and display for 15 minutes, nobody seemed to care. From what I gather on my own, they offer a small to moderate amount of wines from the area. Those available to taste are written on the daily board. Despite selling reds and blends, none of these were offered to sample before purchase. Not really a meal place. Menu consisted of a $32 cheese platter of 4 small wedges (2-3 bites) of cheese and a small container of chutney. If you wanted meats or crackers to eat these on, theze are purchased separatly. Small shop items available to browse, mostly sauces and marmalades. Nobody seemed to care I was there or that I left. Was not worth the drive for what they offer, nor the service they don't offer.

I love this place. It's a genuinely lovely brunch destination…read more The seating recently changed, it's a little more like a restaurant than a cafe like it used to be. Not necessarily a bad thing though! The menu is seasonal, so you'll have to have a look online for the most recent one. They try to use locally sourced ingredients, from farms and bakeries. The wait staff are fantastic, they really seem to care about your experience. If you have any problems, they are more than happy to help. I've been here multiple times and am never let down. It is more expensive than most other places around, but for what you get its worth it. I had a share platter recently and the choice was amazing. There was meat, dips and other yummies to choose from. Such a treat! We had two between four people and it was spot on. There's parking across the road, with a pedestrian crossing too.

Beautifully presented food that tasted great.

Will definitely return to sample some more of the menu, as they had some beautiful sounding items such as cinnamon pancakes. The coffee was genovese. They were quite proud of genovese's Melbourne heritage; I just wish they would have a look at some of the amazing boutique roasters we have available in Melbourne that are among the best in the world. Tea on offer from T2 and yarra valley tea co. Included the normal offerings of herbals and "English breakfast" etc. The room was fairly small, but well lit. The staff were friendly without being cloying. The place got very full at lunch time, but the staff managed nicely. All up, the food is worth returning for, but if you want great tea or coffee, you will have to travel further towards the city than croydon.

In summer it is a great place to relax with the parrots and other bird life. In winter a spot by the fire is sort after, and a warming experience, but i still prefer the balcony with heaters. Stonehouse Cafe is a family run business and located in a historical building. The menu has traditional European and modern Australian cuisine and i can recommend the chicken burger. Filling and fill of flavour and juicy chicken. They do coffee well and the cake cabinet is tempting, look at your own risk. The staff are fast and friendly and I would feel confident recommending this place to locals and tourists alike.
