Variety of cafe food good serving sizes various vegetarian and omnivore options, gluten free bread available however I am only intolerant not coeliac so not sure if they're okay here. Usual coffee hot chocolate and tea options with regular, oat, almond and soy milks. All coffees, hot chocolates, iced milk drinks and milkshakes tasted good to me. Friendly staff and both indoor and outdoor dining options.

Stumbled across this AMAZING PIZZA SHOP (that is extremely local for us) some time back and have been meaning to write a review. My wife and I are sensitive to both gluten and dairy, and finding a pizza shop that offers a GREAT GLUTEN FREE BASE, as well as YUMMY VEGAN CHEESE, is not easy. This place offers both AND the bonus factor that the pizza is woodfired! A rare gem for sure. Please see my additional comments on how good the gluten free bases and vegan cheese are in the "dietary restrictions" part of my review. We've tried four of their pizzas: meat lovers (pictured), garlic prawn (?), Hawaiian, and BBQ chicken. So far, BBQ chicken has been our favourite - a little less meat than meat lovers, with the added bonus of mushrooms and pineapple. We ask for less pineapple, and then request additional toppings: red capsicum and bacon (also pictured). Toppings are the most generous we've found in all of the pizza shops we've tried, and taste and balance unrivalled. Every single slice is loaded with ingredients. Value seems extremely good too, at just $27 for the above-mentioned pizza! Other stores don't offer anywhere near as much in the way of toppings and quality. I don't believe you will be disappointed if you try Woodfire and Stone Pizza & Pasta, plus you will be supporting a local small family business. Note: One star less for atmosphere, simply because the shop isn't necessarily "pretty". That's really not a problem IMO though, as the shop is mostly set up for takeaway, and appears to be very clean and tidy. The team also seem to cooperate nicely with one another, as they quietly and efficiently go about making amazing food. No complaints

Foccacia 10/10 taste just like my mother in law’s 🤤 The calamari and charred octopus also absolutely divine, incredibly cooked and paired well with their sauces! On offer for main was market fish, a duck dish and an incredibly expensive steak - we went for the duck and it was surprisingly really really juicy yet crunchy and perfect?? I would recommend if this is on the menu! We then had the rabbit ragu pasta - I’m gluten free nowadays - so I can’t really give a relatable review however my partner said he really loved it!! Next time we’ll try more antipasto as that’s what they’re known for!!!

Great Gluten Free and Vegetarian Options, combined. Could be cheaper, but good overall. Need Gluten Free Desserts and should stock soy milk!
