Very lucky to have a place like this basically in our backyard! There were a few flags up preventing us from being able to walk all the way around. As we were visiting in winter all the beautiful hydrangeas were unfortunately not flowering. I can only imagine how beautiful it would look during summer! Was relatively quiet when we visited which made for a lovely experience.

Beautiful and well-kept spot, especially when the gardens are in full bloom. The sinkhole itself is impressive and easy to access, with plenty of photo opportunities and shaded areas to relax. Parking right at the site is limited, so it’s best to use the larger parking area shown on the map just a short walk away. Entry is free, and visiting in the late afternoon is extra special when the possums come out.

Umpherston Sinkhole is one of Mount Gambier’s most beautiful and peaceful attractions. The moment you walk down into the sunken garden, you’re surrounded by lush greenery, hanging vines, and perfectly landscaped terraces. It feels like stepping into a hidden world. The place is very well maintained, with clear pathways and plenty of spots to sit, relax, and take photos. In the evening, the resident possums come out, adding a bit of charm and excitement to the visit. Best of all, it’s free and easily accessible. A must-visit spot in Mount Gambier for nature lovers, families, and anyone looking for a unique and calming experience.

The sinkhole is easily accessible with free, nearby parking. Visitors will be impressed by its look, featuring carefully landscaped gardens, stairways, and paths for exploration. The surrounding park is also well-maintained. It's especially worth a visit in the evening to watch the possums emerge from the crevices.

The Umpherston Sink-hole in Mt. Gambier is certainly worth a visit. The garden is picturesque, with quite a variety of plants for such a small area. It's peaceful & relaxing. There are viewing platforms which allow for photo opportunities, & you can climb down via stairs if you'd like. Going down into the garden is not an option for those with mobility issues, but viewing the garden from the first platform is still worthwhile. Several visitors did just that while we were there. Entrance is free, & although there were visitors coming & going, it didn't feel crowded. Parking was free on street, with varying time limits. Children should be under adult supervision at all times.

During our stay in Mount Gambier, we made sure to visit Umpherston Sinkhole, also known as Balumbul, and it really lived up to the reputation of being one of the best free attractions in town. Located just off Jubilee Highway on the edge of Mount Gambier, it’s easy to access with plenty of parking available nearby. Entry is free, and while the gardens close at dusk, you can return in the evening to see the resident possums, which are friendly and often come down looking for food. Walking down the steps into the sinkhole, you’re greeted with a beautifully maintained sunken garden. The terraces are lined with flowers, hydrangeas, lush ferns, and trailing vines that make the entire place feel almost magical. The garden dates back to 1886, when James Umpherston first transformed the limestone cavity into a peaceful retreat. Today, it’s still well kept and offers plenty of great photo opportunities. Around the site you’ll also find toilets, a kiosk and picnic areas, making it a lovely place to spend a relaxing hour. Do note, there are a lot of bees in one corner of the sinkhole—harmless if left alone, but worth being mindful of if you’re allergic. An absolute must-visit when in Mount Gambier.

Visiting this sinkhole was like stepping into a secret garden carved by time itself. Surrounded by vibrant greenery and thriving plant life, the entire area radiates a peaceful, almost magical energy. The natural walls are draped in moss and vines, creating a living tapestry that changes with the light throughout the day. What makes this place truly special is the atmosphere — it's serene, untouched, and full of life. Birds chirp overhead, the air is fresh and earthy, and the gentle rustling of leaves adds to the calming vibe.

What a great info centre, We went there tuesday the 22nd. It really ties in the whole area from Englebracht caves and the diving under MT Gambier. All the caves systems, Fossils and so much more information. Free to enter, toilets available, Wheelchair accessible, Close to public transport. The two lady's that were on shift were great and easy to talk with. A very pleasant place to stop on a holiday

A must-stop for anyone visiting Mount Gambier! The staff here are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable they helped me plan my day perfectly and pointed out some hidden gems I would’ve missed otherwise. The centre is clean, well-organised, and has lots of brochures, maps, and local info. You can also discover all the best places to visit in Mount Gambier, from the Blue Lake to nearby caves and gardens. They even sell souvenirs like bags, accessories, and bottled Blue Lake water a great way to take home a little piece of Mount Gambier as a memory. There’s plenty of parking, clean toilets, and some interactive displays that make it fun for families. Definitely worth stopping here before exploring the area!

I wish I got the woman's name who was the first of all the centres we visited to actually greet us and ask if we needed anything, and actually got out a map then showed us where and what ....Friday last week 7/2/25 Thankyou.. , you were then at Engelbrecht Caves with Sanjit, who was equally as good as you,..t.his knowledge of the caves was amazing, for someone who has only being doing it for a year.... The other places you sent us to.... also awesome,...have added photos Of Umpherston Cave, Tantanoola Cave, Englebert, Little Blue Lake..Allandale sinkhole, confusing to find, yet right in your face, it's in the middle of the road, shame they don't clean it up so we can at least see where and how the divers enter...something the council could do....so all the info you have us was well worth it ...Thanks again...To both you and Sanjit

I went to the visitor centre at the sink-hole. There is a range of souvenirs, local drinks, photos, general information from around the area. The assistant behind the counter was friendly and helpful in with purchase. Make sure you call in, mount gambier is such a beautiful place, you won't be dissapointed.

Helpful staff and lots of info about the area. They’ve got maps, brochures, and a few displays if you’re into local history or geology. Good spot to stop if you’re new to town or want to plan a few things to see. Clean and easy to find with plenty of parking.

So much information and very welcoming and friendly staff. You can also buy the soft drink that is made locally in Mt Gambier. My daughter loved the blue lemonade as it turned her mouth blue! Good walk through for kids with a bit on history about the place.

Must visit. It got a little museum at the back, fun for everyone to have a look. Kids could get a $1 pack to do while adults read or enjoy the display.

This place is fantastic! Great vibe, super friendly staff, and a unique, delicious menu. I came in for lunch and enjoyed it so much that I came back the next morning for breakfast. Both meals were excellent. The ingredients are top quality and everything was full of flavour. The big breakfast could be a little larger, but the portion size didn’t take away from the overall quality. Definitely one of the best spots to eat in Mount Gambier. Highly recommend!

Everything just perfect. The Shashuka was spot on, Great flavor. Chili Crab scramble has kimchi in it. They made the kimchi smell less strong so the whole dish is very harmonized. Perfect place to eat.

Great salads here! Nourish bowl with pumpkin falafel was delicious, as was the selection of 3 daily salads. Staff were really helpful, friendly, welcoming and polite! Can't get better service from a cafe! Hot chocolate was excellent 😋 Highly recommend, especially if you're vegetarian or vegan, or just love salad! 👍

☕️Lovley, cute spot for good coffee and food. I ordered the breakfast burrito and a cappuccino as take away and it was great. While I was waiting inside I had a look around and it felt very comfy and warm. The staff was great, very friendly and efficient. Coffee definitely hit the spot. Would come again!

The best breakfast place we’ve ever been to! Everything was so fresh and delicious. Especially the Cocowhip (and best coffee)— it was like coconut ice cream for us, and we still can’t forget it. We haven’t found anything like it anywhere else! 🌴✨

Went to Presto for brunch with a friend. Great cafe. Clean bright and great atmosphere. Ordered scrambled eggs on sourdough and corn fritters. Both were delicious! Fresh and tasty. Coffee was really great too. I would recommend this place.

One of my all time favourite regional cafes in Australia! We made a detour on our way home to Adelaide from Halls Gap just to have lunch here. This place never disappoints. Food, coffee, juices, matcha all spot on. Real hot chocolate and tasty treats. Fresh takeaway salads as well. Don’t miss this place!

This Cave Garden is far less good compared with the Umpherston Sinkhole, which is a few minutes drive away. If you have visited the Umpherston Sinkhole and don't have enough time, I highly suggest you skipping this Cave Garden. It's pretty small, less nice gardening, with rubbishs inside the deep sink hole. I reckoned better maintenance might make this Cave Garden more beautiful and attractive (perhaps lack of fund from council?). As the Umpherston Sinkhole is so stunning and it is such a nice underground garden, and situated so close to this Cave Garden, otherwise this one might still be good for visiting.

Made a short visit to the sinkhole garden. Look beautiful on the outside but after you take a short walk down and look carefully into the hole, you will see plenty of junk inside. We spotted a shopping trolley, chairs and tyre rims! What is wrong with those people who threw it in?! Nevertheless it still look beautiful from the outside.

The Cave Garden is a unique natural feature situated right in the middle of the city's bustling center, offering remarkably easy access. ​Convenient street parking is available nearby, and an hour is more than enough time to explore. While undeniably accessible, it is significantly smaller and less aesthetically dramatic than the Umpherston Sinkhole. Unfortunately, the garden's natural beauty is somewhat diminished by scattered litter, likely brought in by the wind, which has a noticeably damping effect on the overall experience.

For such a naturally beautiful landmark, it was incredibly disappointing to find it filthy, unkempt and full of litter. We'd been so impressed by all the other beautiful sights in and around Mt Gambier. This was a huge let-down and was heart-breaking to see how this beautiful place is been mistreated and neglected.

Lovely place to visit, always well maintained close to all amenities, coffee and library great to go if raining, turns into a great water feature, also have the Party after The Parade held there following the Christmas Parade. 🏞️☔🎄

The Cave Garden is a well-known attraction in the heart of Mount Gambier, located directly behind City Hall. This large limestone sinkhole has historic significance, as it was once the original water source for many of the town’s early settlers. For me, it’s a place I’ve visited many times since childhood, and while it remains an iconic site, I feel it has seen far better days. The surrounding grounds are well maintained, with lawns, pathways, and signage in good condition. There are multiple viewing levels accessible by both stairs and ramped paths, making it easy for most visitors to get a close look. From the upper level, you can look down into the sinkhole, while the lower paths let you get nearer to the greenery and rock formations. Inside the sinkhole itself, however, the flora could use more attention. It feels a little overgrown and untidy compared to how it once looked, and during my visit, I noticed some unwanted rubbish on the cave floor, which was disappointing. A cleanup and refresh would really help restore its appeal. Entry is free, and it’s open daily, so it’s still worth stopping by if you’re in the city centre. With some extra care, the Cave Garden could easily return to being a standout attraction.

The Mt Gambier Council (Or whatever they are called ) need to spend less money on the "The Blue Bob" and clean the garden up. Wheel Covers and Trolley in the cave in addition to a messy garden...We had the joy of meeting a local homeless person hiding in the garden at 5pm trying to scare us by yelling "Boo" It need a cleaner a gardener and those cameras poiting at The Blue Bob so some kid doesn't stick eyes to it ( And improve it BTW) shold be moved into the Cave Garden

I was on a mission to find some new shoes, and grab a few items I left behind accidentally which actually included my shoe bag. Central shops had a great choice of shoes, Williams shoes were amazing, Kmart had everything the Drakes supermarket was missing, and there's a decent food court where I got some sushi.

Nice little shopping Centre & Plenty of parking. The outside and surroundings could do with some TLC. Plenty of shops and a good variation. Quite a few options in the food court.

New shop ( silly sollys ) opened making the atmosphere great and happy for all the other retailers doung a great trade because of it.

Visited the centre to go to kmart, parking is a bit of a nightmare with the car park accross the road closed off to the public. The centre is well set out and i hot what i needed.

It’s becoming run down and overpriced for renters, some brands that where in there did admittedly go into receivership, but it is very outdated, minimal food service, but it has just gotten Silly Sollys, which apart from Kmart you would probably just go to the market place

Had a great longer weekend with family,good accommodation at Big4 , ok food at local hotel, weather cold but ok

Another quite. out of the way shopping complex. Quick walk from the main shopping centre

Great views of the Blue lake. Very easy to get to. When we went there was easy parking in the street. Quite popular and a brief simple description of the lake and its current use. When in mount Gambier this is a must do!

Wow! The Blue Lake looked stunning in the hot summer sun. It was cobalt blue and glistening in the sun. Free entry and parking nearby. Well worth a diversion en route between Adelaide and Melbourne.

Before I came to this Blue Lake, I didn't know there were volcanoes ever existed in Australia. The information sign told me that the Blue Lake was in fact a volcano carter, but filled up with water now. The day during my visit was cloudy. The Lake was not in a deep blue colour that showed in other people's shared photos. It's one of the few stunning geotechical features in Mount Gambier so you must come to visit it if you are visiting or passing through this little lovely town.

Was cool sight to see doesn't cost anything and parking was easy.

Nice scenery and beautiful place to stop and enjoy mother nature ☺️.

Beautiful place! A wonderful place to look at the Blue Lake in Mount Gambier. Gives you amazing angles to click pictures of the mesmerizing Blue Lake that changes its color to different shades of blue depending on the color of the sky above! Good to visit with children, they will love this place that's full of nature!

I think the photos speak for themselves about how beautiful it is

In August, the lake is a calm, grey-blue, a quiet beauty often overlooked by those expecting its famous bright blue. I saw a stranger offer to take a photo for a disappointed couple, saying: "The light still loves you." It was a gentle reminder that the best of humanity shows up not when things are perfect, but when they’re imperfect. The grey-blue lake became a mirror for kindness, reflecting how we care for one another, not just the view.

Blue Lake is a amazing spot with stunning blue water and easy walking tracks. The views are beautiful, and there are lots of great places to take photos. I really liked the love locks — such a lovely idea that adds a romantic touch!

Really beautiful lake and with the time of the day can see different shades of blue from the lake. Have different view points surrounding the lake every one should visit.

The Blue Lake, located in Mount Gambier, South Australia, is one of the most fascinating natural wonders in the country. Nestled inside an extinct volcanic crater, the lake is famous for its stunning transformation of colour—from a deep steel grey in winter to a brilliant cobalt blue during summer. This unique phenomenon has made the Blue Lake a popular tourist attraction and a symbol of Mount Gambier’s natural beauty.

Visited the blue lake while it was raining, lots of platforms and nice drive around. Pretty on even the most miserable of days.

The beautiful Mount Gambier Blue Lake is an explosive volcanic crater, with a circumference of 5km and a depth reaching 70 meters.

Amazing and beautiful- would be nice to have more parking for people that have a disability. Some one parked over the entry point from the road so we needed to go up the gutter and onto the path which is difficult for someone with a walking cane. People need to be respectful of others.

We stopped in here for lunch as it's across the road from one of the sink holes. Very quiet, not many people in there. I used the QR code to order our food and drink, and it was pretty fast. We enjoyed the food.

Lovely seating options under a covered outdoor area with great gas heaters inside and out to keep you warm. Just lost a star for weak coffee, which is to many people's liking, but when a black coffee is brown, you already know it will just taste more like water, which it sadly did. The food was great though, with my extra crispy bacon on my eggs benedict cooked perfectly, and perfect hollandaise, and the chocolate sauce on the waffles was thick and decadent.

Disappointed to say the least. This was lamb. My friend and I both had the same thing, and even she said the meat in the focaccia was definitely lamb, not steak. It's even cut in strips like they use in their lamb wrap. I told the waitress it was lamb, and she went to the chef, came back, and said no, it's our beef, not lamb. I know what lamb looks like and tastes like. I don't appreciate being made to feel like an idiot and like I was the one in the wrong. They did offer to make another one, but why would I want another one. I was in the mood for a steak focaccia, not lamb. I didn't want another lamb one! After a few bites, combined with being made to feel like the customer was definitely wrong and stupid, I ended up losing my appetite altogether. Really disappointed. The meals Gere just keep getting worse everytime I go here. Sad, because I used to love it before it was sold by the previous owners!!!

A decent place for lunch and breakfast at Mt. Gambier. They have wide variety of options. One of very few cafes with all day menu at Mt. Gambier. Really loved the coffee. We've ordered big breakfast and french croissant. Would have been better with greens, beans and mushrooms than heaps of Bacon rashers and chorizo. Even croissant was served with lot of bacon rashers which is not my liking.

Went for desserts on our visit to Mt. Gambier. Must visit, lovely spot for savoury and sweet toothed alike. Place was clean and the staff were lovely. Four star, took them long before we received our order.

Update: Best eggs and service. Upgraded to 5 stars. Staff are attentive, atmosphere is calm and food is excellent.. a minor request was no problem for chef and results were top flight. : Family breakfast winner. Pancakes & milkshakes for kids were a winner and Eggs Benedict were just right. Highly recommend this venue for meals at reasonable prices, served by friendly staff in comfy surroundings.

Huge portions food Excellent taste Wait time - Average Ambience - Warm and cozy Service - Could be improved, but not complaining much because the hospitality industry is badly affected with shortage of staff and so they could be overworked.

Adventuring in Mount Gambier, my son and I had intended to dine at another restaurant which was closed, so we stumbled into Casa de Tequila. It seems quite new, paint smells like it’s still drying. We were seated immediately, which was lovely, though took a little while to be served (I’m still not sure whether it’s table or counter service). I ordered a trio of dips for entree, my son chose the chicken tacos and I thought I’d go for the quesadilla (normally I’d definitely go a burrito). Indeed the menu is replete with options, as is the drinks list, though it’s not overwhelmingly large. The staff are polite and food gets out pretty quickly. It was fine, maybe a little underwhelming to be honest, but tasted good. Might not go back there, but it was ok.

Really nice service, the steak was on the rare side which I mentioned to them, so they didn't get me to pay for it, which was really nice, but everything else was quite good.

We stopped here for dinner whilst in Mount Gambier. Finally we found decent jalapeno poppers. I had the pork ribs and my wife had the beef enchilada. Both meals were quite tasty and the serving sizes were more than adequate.

Food was decent, but amount if Guac for the chip was hilarious. It was like for a child and even using it sparingly, we ran out of guac half way through our chips. Also you guys need to get a better sauce for the churros because while the Crurros were nice they were let down terrible dipping sauce. I mean we are paying enough for it then please provide better and enough quality food.

As soon as you enter your nostrils are enticed by the subtle yet amazing aromas of what others are eating and what is being prepared in the kitchen. Friendly staff guide you to your table. You are given menus to ponder on. So many delicious choices. Got a couple of margaritas to enjoy. Ordered the Calamari À La Plancha and the Crunchy Jalapeño`S Poppers to start. As we sipped our margaritas we watched as food was served to other customers. Licking our lips at the sight and smells of the meals as they travelled past. For our mains we ordered the Burrito Bowl and Fajitas (Comes With 2 Tortillas) I opted for the chicken option. No words can praise the fajitas enough. I'm a big boy and it filled me up. To the point that I had no room for desert. Compliments to the chef and all the staff. Thank you for the experience

We had the ribs, tacos de Pollo, fajitas and a bowl with snapper. We're not expecting this kind of food when we first walked in as the ambiance was a bit touristy. BUT the food was phenomenal. Absolutely blown away!! Will come again if I'm ever in Mt. Gambier.

Ordered take away while visiting Mount Gambier. Beef 'Makke your own tacos' were good, meat was tender and tasty. Nachos were okay, not much taste in the gauc. Wings coating wad crunch, sauce was sweet and spicy. Corn was ok.

Ordered a big breakfast, was edible and filling. Poached eggs were over done. I read the menu wrong not realising the mushroom, tomato and spinach were sautéed with hoisin sauce. I assumed it was just the spinach, I personally didn't like it and didn't eat it. Juice was lovely. Staff were friendly and efficient.

Pretty good meal today, we had the Chicken Schnitzel burger with a side of wedges and serving of pancakes, which was excellent, thanks

This licensed Cafe is right in the middle of Mount Gambiers town centre so it makes it a great place to pop in for all day breakfasts, lunch and coffees. I dined in. They have indoor and outdoor seating. An extensive menu as well as many cakes and other sweet treats in their dessert cabinet. There is also the daily specials board. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The food was served quickly and was fresh and tasty and hot. Heaps of variety - including vegetarian and gf options. Licensed venue so you have have a cheeky glass of wine or other alcohol drink. Inexpensive, great atmosphere. Highly recommend visiting Collars and Cuffs for your next coffee, breakfast or lunch catch up!

Beautiful food friendly service i wanted to pack this place and bring home from holidays with me so I can go there all the time

Had chicken pumpkin penne pasta and iced coffee. It wasn't a long wait and the food was really yummy. Staff were friendly. The place appeared clean. Iced coffee was delicious. Will definitely go back again.

Yum meal, but a very small serving size for the price. $20 for the eggs benny with bacon on a single slice of bread.

Went in just for a simple breakfast and didn't expect to have an amazing super kickass one! The servings were huge! The staff was super Friendly. The food was delicious! Can't recommend this place enough!!!

Gets busy during peak times but they keep things moving. Food’s usually fresh and comes out quick enough. Staff do their job and the place is mostly clean. Good central spot if you're in town and need something easy. Nothing fancy, just your usual Macca’s with the basics covered.

Waited for 10 minutes 8n the drive through, along with a few other vehicles. Absolutely no contact was made during that time. We then finally ordered thick shakes, only to be told that they are not available. Fast food…….i don’t think so.

Toilets absolutely disgusting!! Food average at best. Spoke to someone to clean the toilet. She rolled her eyes at me and said there’s nothing I can do about it right now!!

The service was slow, like half an hour and i basically had no interaction with a human worker - order on the app, order filled sat on the counter and number called - noone handed it to me...if i hadn't heard my number it would have just sat there. There was noone available to take orders. An old couple had been waiting 20 minutes for their food. My children refused to use the toilets they were so dirty...no toilet paper available in female toilets. Food all over playground. Did not receive all our order. Would nearly say it's the worst Maccas I've been too.

Went there tonight, was siting in the 2nd lane waiting to order , ( NO Contact) I waited as a steady stream of cars passed through in lane 1 ordering . I gave up ordering and reversed out of the drive-through absolutely disgusting service, Went inside and spoke with manager ! “ McDonald’s you need to do better”

This is the second I ordered from you guys and you never get it right, there’s always something missing. Today you missed 10pieces of nuggets and 2burgers. I live 15mins away and i be bothered to drive back to get this missing orders. You asked me to wait for my food for 10-15mins and i did but this is frustrating when you trying to feed your kids and you didn’t end up put their food in.

Let me just start by saying, Wow. I can’t even begin to describe my experience as I walked through those doors. As I entered this haven of good times, I knew as soon as I entered I was in for a good luncheon. As I went to the counter I was served by the lovely service workers, and can I just say, the service I received was a 6 star service (just saying). I ordered my food and received it almost INSTANTLY. Beautiful work crew. Brings a tear to my eyes that service with such high standards still exists. Bravo McDonald’s, for the outstanding experience. P.S Nathan is a stand up guy, deserves a raise for all the hard work he’s put in.

Really enjoyed this cave, lots of interesting history and the tour guide was amazing, so much information and pointed out different things that you wouldn't notice on your own. Lovely coffee shop (with great coffee, best I've had in a long time) all the staff are wonderful. If you visit Mt Gambier you have to visit Engelbrecht cave!

The history of these caves is very interesting. I was there when it was raining, it was amazing to hear the water rushing down crevasse next to the caves. Beautifully restored and looked after. It's definitely worth paying to do the tour

Yeah a dry limestone cave yeah unique in many ways just not very pretty or interesting, or well fun.......much better if your a cave diver I'm sure but for the rest of us who pay 15 bucks for a tour really not that great. I guess a look in to say you did and to look at the clear underground lake water.....and climb a few stairs and listed to a tour guides efforts to make the whole experience more compelling maybe.....

Fantastic set of caves which, also can arranged dive tours, mostly grade 2 and 3 divers. The walking tour guide, Luke, has great Aussie humour, making the tour more enjoyable. He is also very knowledgeable with some historical trivia. Highly recommend this tour, opened 6 days a week, closed on Wednesdays.

There are 2 parts for this cave. The blue water is part one, and the other one is part two. The lady who was giving us the tour of these caves was very good as well. Listening to the history of the cave it was little sad to hear, but a great job done restoring and opening them for tourists. Do book the tickets beforehand. Should be in the list while visiting Mount Gambier!!

Amazing tour guide (Tara I think) who made it so interesting. Not one of the showy stalagmites and stalactites type caves, but a dry cave with a great and unfortunate history. The 45 minutes went quickly and I enjoyed it very much. Worth seeing.

This cave may hv a sad history but look at it now, a beautiful hidden gem! The water is very clear blue and only licensed divers have access to it. You can’t just go into this cave without a tour guide and definitely you can take a picture as much as you can but taking videos are not allowed. Crowded of people during the peak seasons, lucky we still got the ticket! This cave is worth and is a must visit!

Friendly, helpful staff. Always clean and super easy to find stuff!

Big W has a large range and I really like the make up specials they have. I did find the Lay-by staff a bit hard to communicate with & unwelcoming though. Overall a good store

Went into Big W Mt Gambier store Tuesday 12th August with a Client. I would just like to say how we were greeted with a beautiful smile from Jaiden ( OMG or was it Braiden, i know it was a very different way of spelling, not with the usual Y) so sorry 😔 but this young Man has exceptional customer service skills rarely seen these days, keep up the good work Jaiden, you brighten customers day & don't stop smiling, i would give heaps more stars than 5, you get 10/10 young Man 😊😉💯

Full of cheap crap clothes and general items sold on price only. However, best price locally fir 64gb usb.

Very nice Big w great range of products

Food court is fantastic many choices of food selections.Plenty of shops to visit.

Did not get what we were looking for - disappointed 😔

A very centrally located park with an easy stroll to cafes, take away and supermarkets. Park is divided by a town road, where the part we stayed in had very large sites, but was very old and lots of perms. Dump point across the road. Personally, I didn’t feel safe - we had a self titled homeless girl ask for a towel to shower (which she was given), people screaming at each other on the other side of the fence, and sirens for most of the stay. Amenities clean and park is centrally located, but not one we would go back to.

Unpowered site for $28. Cheap,good location,but too crowded . The kitchen is not big but good enough. The shower room is clean. Notice 1：the Wi-Fi password is for one device, if you have iPad or laptop need to connect,you need to get extra password. Notice 2 : The fridge is locked, so need to ask for the password.

It was ok. Very tight. Not a lot of space. There was a screw up with our site which we didn't find out till it was dark and the office was closed. Someone else had the same site. Awkward. Fortunately there was a spare site in front of us and they moved there... The facilities are older but everything was clean and worked well. Easy walk to shops and eating places so super handy. The can next to us was discharging grey water into the ground following the camp instructions. Didn't really like that as now you had to walk around the grey water puddle. Yuk. Fortunately we were in a roof top tent.....

Two sections to this park the old and the newer. Based on the tariff it rates highly but the biggest attraction is its central location within easy walking to entertainment, shops and restaurants. Photo of the neighbours

If we were to review the park on their toilet paper it would be 11 out of 10. The best loo paper we have ever come across in a caravan park. Thank You. The staff are lovely and the park is well situated, great camp kitchen and steaming hot water in the showers

We stayed in a Deluxe Queen unit at this park; there was nothing Deluxe about it! Bad Points: The unit was in serious need of an upgrade & general maintenance, very dated. Two lights were flickering all the time (the kitchen light and the fridge light). Two of the water tap handles constantly fell of off. The extractor fan had no light at all. The smoke detector is mounted directly above the cooking top causing it to go-off frequently while cooking or just making toast. The fly screen door would not close properly The internet was useless; it was so slow we could not use it – we had to hot-spot our phones and run the PC over our phones!!. Our unit was directly opposite the toilet and kitchen block (for the campers) so there were campers using it and talking most of the time. During our trip around SA & Vic this was by far the worst accommodation we experienced. Good points: The place was clean & the bed comfortable. We could park right in front of the unit. We only booked for one night!!

This is an old dated very affordable caravan Park if you are not looking for fancy playgrounds. It's s a good place to park your caravan and walk to the town. It's close to everything. Amenities were very clean

Took 10 minutes to get served, dispute it being quiet. The guy and lady who were serving me did not greet me at all, and didn’t even have basic manners. When I asked for a fresh cookie, the guy refused. Worst customer service I’ve come across, won’t be returning. Also, won’t scan my subway card.

I had a really bad experience at this Subway. One of the staff members (who said she was the manager) was extremely rude and kept yelling at me. When I asked her to calm down, she just said “this is how I talk.” Her attitude completely ruined my day and made me feel very uncomfortable. If this is the kind of service they provide, I definitely don’t want to come back here again. Worst experience I’ve ever had at Subway.

The service here and attitude of the staff ( Indian young fellow) very poor, try to avoid go there. No manners.. Only limited option for bread

Didnt have the best experience today, asked for a footlong italian herbs and cheese chicken teriyaki toasted with cheddar cheese, while putting the chicken teriyaki on it he asked if it was fresh or toasted i replied toasted, then proceeded to not toast it and put salads on it and start to wrap it up. We then told him as he was wrapping it that the sub was asked to be toasted, he then said we didnt say toasted at all and proceeded to argue with us about it. He then started getting annoyed and irritated with us. He remade the sub but added old english cheese and the wrong sauce and handled the sub in a bad way so it was split into threes. Normally it is a great place with great food but extremely dissatisfied and disappointed this time.

Usually this subways really good but recently sort of gotten worse Ordered foot long teriyaki sub and they charged two six inches price scamming me $5 and when I said something I was wrong ?? Bad customer service

A very well manage Subway with excellent customer service.

2 nights in a row I have tried going here to get something whilst on break, but the door has been shut and locked as early as 8:30pm. If you advertise till 9pm, then stay open till then.

Immaculately kept gardens. Beautiful rotundas and flower beds of roses and other plants. Absolutely lovely place to take in the serenity.

Decent little park for a walk or kicking a ball around. Good open space with some shady spots, and the gardens are looked after pretty well. There’s a playground and a few benches to sit on. Handy location if you’re nearby and just want somewhere quiet to chill for a bit.

This park got a lot things that people can have fun. The most impressive thing for me is there got so many beautiful roses, that I only can see in Botanic Gardens in other cities. It’s my first time seeing so many so many different but all so beautiful roses just in a public garden, which is so wonderful. I can stay here whole day, just walk around, smell the different rose scents, enjoy their different looking.

Lovely spot for a leisurely stroll or picnic/barbecue. Well maintained and all the roses and other ornamentals make for stunning photo opportunities. Make sure you take a few moments to enjoy the fish pond over near the bowls club side. Nearer the playground are some of the cleanest public toilets we've ever come across. Overall definitely worth a look if you're in the area - stop and enjoy a moment of peace and tranquillity in the centre of town.

Lovely maintained memorial park. Beautiful flowers, lots of unique roses and Anzac Poppies. Very peaceful and nice place to visit.

What more can you say about this park then absolutely beautiful .

Fantastic park with great parking area . Lots of area for kids to play and all locked up and secure.

The store is well-stocked with a variety of items, from home goods to clothing. Prices are competitive, and the layout is straightforward, which makes it easy to find what you need. However, the customer service could use some improvement, as there were times when it was difficult to locate staff for assistance. Parking is ample, which is a plus. Overall, it's a decent place for quick shopping trips, but there’s room for improvement in customer service.

I was there and couldn't find what I was looking for. When I asked help by staff and got a tantram the lady was throwing down things she was packing out and got a very bad attitude from her not happy very unprofessional and I felt very unwelcome almost like I should be there. A customer should definitely not be treated this way 😭

I keep getting told that at KMart there will always be someone to do your checkout if you ask. That's NOT the case in the Mt. Gambier store. I was told straight out that there was no one to serve me, I'd have to do it myself. 0 out of 5

Went looking for stretchy 3/4 pants and actually found some even in my size and good price ..good quality too...they arent that thin material ..material that had body which is important ..also found out that kmart is going through some new changes...cant wait to see what its all about ...its 2023 and i thought i would share what i bought from kmart for kmart's christmas wishing tree for kids..... l hope they like what i picked

I'm from Melbourne visiting Mt Gambier SA I bought a pair of ear pods yesterday and couldn't get them to work went back this morning and an amazing lady in lay buy department called Fiona went up and above to help me even though it was time for her to go home she fixed my problem thankyou Fiona people like you should be rewarded thankyou again Eva

Helpful staff Good selection of products at reasonable prices. Was able to purchase an induction cooker.

If a store that size can't even bother opening one regular check-out in the middle of the day then my money will be spent elsewhere.

While walking around the Blue Lake, we noticed a tall hill adjacent to it with a stone tower at the top the Centenary Tower and decided to meet friends and make the climb. Be prepared: the walk up is steep, and I mean properly steep, so it doubles as a great cardio workout. In fact, there’s even a defibrillator at the top in case of emergencies, which makes sense once you’ve tackled the incline! Its about 190m above sea level The effort is absolutely worth it though. From the summit, the views are incredible sweeping panoramas of Mount Gambier, the Blue Lake, Valley Lake, and the surrounding volcanic landscape. On a clear day you can see for miles across the lush countryside. The tower itself is an impressive stone structure dating back to the early 1900s, built to commemorate the first sighting of Mount Gambier by Lieutenant James Grant in 1800. There are resting spots along the way, including a chair near the top where you can catch your breath before heading back down. The entrance is via the second gate (not through the caravan park), with clear signage to guide you. This was a challenging but very rewarding walk for us, and a great warm-up before tackling the Grampians later in the week. A must-do if you enjoy history, fitness, and breathtaking views. These are the open hours for the tower the walk is open every day. Tuesday Closed Wednesday Closed Thursday Closed Friday Closed Saturday Closed Sunday Closed Monday 10 am–2 pm

Great view from the top. The tower itself is open when the flag is flying (but you can still walk up to the tower). It is a steep walk up so keep that in mind, a couple of benches on the way up if you need a rest.

360° view from top. 300 meters only from the car park . Very steep going up but don't worry AED machine is on the top for an emergency.

Best place in mt gambier. This is the highest altitude spot in the area. The tower is closed most of the time. But the view from the top is amazing. A 369 deg view of the entire area. You can identify the all 3 craters of the volcano. Valley lake is visible but blue lake is not visible from the top.

The Tower has specific opening days. Even when closed the walk up the hill is worth it. There is a defibrillator at the tower.

It’s a bit of a steep climb to the tower but the views are absolutely worth it. You can see the valley lake from the top. There are also paths for hiking. The tower is not always open but you can go up to the tower and enjoy the views. There is also a giant compass on display and I thought it was awesome. Perfect way to spend a morning if you’re on holiday at Mt. Gambier

Very steep walking up to the tower, the tower is small and nothing particular except for memories. However the best part is the climb. Absolutely enjoyed walking uphill and wide open view of landscape getting larger.

Great food, great name! Love the decor also. Check this place out if you get a chance!

$35 for two Birdhouse fried chicken burgers and fries. Staff were super friendly. Both burgers and fries were fresh and tasty. Would be interested to come back and try a beef burger!

Natural Born Grillers is a foodie must in Mount Gambier. The Dungeon Burger is next-level — loaded with pulled pork, hot honey chicken, cheese, bacon, ranch slaw, BBQ and chipotle sauce. Juicy, smoky, sweet and spicy, it’s hands down the best burger I’ve ever had. The colourful walls and street-art vibe (just like in the photos) give the place so much character, and the food matches that bold energy. Generous portions, friendly service, and flavour that’s unforgettable. Worth the trip for the Dungeon Burger alone. 🍔🔥

We were welcomed in with great customer service and she took our order quickly and the food came quickly too and it was tasty. I love a good beef burger and my husband loves friend chicken burgers. Both were exceptional and so were the onion rings and sweet potato chips. We enjoyed our experience and recommended to anyone dropping into Mt Gambia

Food was fantastic! Great burgers great onion rings and chips too. At first I was worried when we pulled up the place looked dead and empty which is usually a sign to turn around and find another options but something told me YOLO just give it a go. That decision was confirmed when I saw how many take away bags /pending orders were lined up behind the counter. The wait was like 15 mins but the time flew by as we played connect 4. They offer an assortment of board games you can play to pass the time. The staff were very smiley and the vibes were good which was also a big plus. Overall a great experience and I'd highly recommend if your feeling classic American burgers and food.

Has a separate vegan/vegetarian menu!The vegan Spicy AF burger was amazing! Spicy and delicious. Love that they go to the extra effort of having seitan on the menu!

Have been travelling Australia for the past 14 months, and this would have to be the best burgers and fries we've had between Brisbane and Mount Gambier. Great couple working and serving, unsure if they were the owners, well priced, well portioned, and great sauce choices. Well done!

Perfect pasta, can't remember which one. Too bright inside but whatever. Food is amazing

Staff are really friendly. Everyone really enjoyed their pasta - generous portions, full of flavour, super tasty! We got our side of bread and cheese too. About $24/$26 for a main portion & no surcharge for takeaway containers if you have left overs. We will be back, would recommend.

Food was very tasty and staff do good job

Yes very very nice foid very fresh an i do recommend going there

I like all the food in Fasta Pasta, my daughter ordered kids lasagna which is really delicious. I like the mushroom sauce for steak, which is milk based, a bit different as normal mushrooms sauce I have had, but it’s delicious. The only issue is the chips in steak meal is too salty, it looks the chef didn’t put the salt evenly on the chips, some are very salty, some are ok…

Pasta actually was faster at Fasta Pasta. The service was quick, friendly and an overall enjoyable experience. Food was delicious and came with free bread always a bonus! Maybe bring your ear muffs so you don’t get overstimulated, (noisy in there).

Haven't been here for many years. Service was friendly & appreciated the door opener/greeter. Meals priced from $25-29. Meal was fine & no complaints

Caffe Belgiorno – Decent Pasta, Average Pizza ★★★★☆ / ★★★☆☆ The pasta was nice (★★★★☆), but the pizza wasn’t as good (★★★☆☆)—it lacked the quality I was hoping for. I ordered two different takeaway pizzas, but neither met expectations. They offer a wide variety of dishes, which makes it difficult to maintain consistently high quality across the menu. I’d need to try more food to get a better sense of what they do best. Overall, a decent experience, but some dishes could be improved. Thanks

Food is excellent. It came out fairly quickly and was hot and very tasty. The penne Dijon was excellent and chicken and Cranberry Calzone was also fantastic. Service was fantastic. Staff were friendly and efficient. The Cafe has a great warm atmosphere, however as I am an old bugger, it got a little noisy for me at times. The price was extremely reasonable. Overall a place that I would happily recommend.

Good value. Good service. Orders placed at bar and you find your own table, but staff are attentive & friendly. Pasta great with a glass of the house red.

Ordered 2 pizzas, they were good, size is fine. Binch of people, were there on a Sunday. Reservation might be helpful. Staff was friendly. Little loud as all is just in one room.

Delicious Carbonara pasta - definitely a memorable choice and one we would travel for! Pizza was solid without exciting the crowd... we tried the prawn and prosciutto. Cheap and cheerful pricing with a great restaurant vibe! Worth trying!

The food was good, the atmosphere busy. We managed to get our food in a reasonable time. The service was lacking though (if that's what you'd call it). Had to order at the bar and couldn't catch a smile from the wait staff even if you tried. Also were quick to clear the plates, would clear mine as soon as I had finished eating before my partner even had a chance to finish his meal.

Beautiful building and glorious food. Staff were friendly and courteous. Thank you

So I like a pizza well done and no matter how many times I ask shops just never cook it right. Travelling to Mt Gambier for work I tried 23acres pizza and not only was the pizza 10 out of 10 they actually listened and cooked it exactly how I like it. Well done guys I will absolutely visit again on my next trip.

We both had yiros for lunch on Saturday 6 Sept. For the price we had high expectations. Although lovely and fresh, unfortunately we were let down. At first it appeared there was enough meat but only in the top section. It dwindled off to just a salad wrap! Very disappointing.

Best pizza we have ever had, we dined in, Staff very friendly and when we got up from the table to ask for a takeaway box, Before I even got there the young man already had them in his hand to give me. Awesome service 🙏🤩😍

Bit weird. I assume the owner is the bald guy throwing his arms around like he’s on some sort of power-trip (or substance). Girl behind the counter looked miserable and didn’t want to be serving. Food was ok, nothing special, just ok. Price was ridiculous. Handy being in the supermarket complex, but the vibe was aggressive and angsty, not fun and happy.

We ordered two serves of loaded fries delivered. It was terrible. It had hardly any topping and it was over cook Ed and completely dried out. At 20.- for a vegetarian loaded fries I would have expected a bit more. We have ordered previously and it was always okay. Not fantastic but okay. This time it was very disappointing.

So so disappointing on the lack of service given yesterday. Sat there for half an hour waiting for my online order, that was ready and left sitting behind the counter for 20 minutes of which not one person behind the counter bothered to call my name after telling me to sit and wait for my name to be called. I had to approach the counter again to ask 'is that my order sitting up there' to which the reply was 'oh sorry'. It sat there for 20 minutes. The staff could see me sitting there waiting and not once did they even try and figure out that the order sitting up on the counter was mine. They just left my order sitting there and me sitting there waiting. I will not be back.

Was watching their tiktok live and because I pointed out that a staff member used their mobile phone and then hung up and begun handling food without washing their hands I was muted and had my comment deleted. I wouldn't have bothered to write this if they simply had of acknowledged, I wasn't rude either.

It's really great! Right next to the Blue Lake. You can take a walk along the Blue Lake every morning and evening. The facilities are complete, and the rooms are clean and tidy. Friendly and helpful staff. The children’s most favorite are the jumping pillow and the indoor heated swimming pool, which has two slides and a shallow area for the little ones. Highly recommended.

What a great Holiday Park, it’s located between the lakes area. the Blue Lake was spectacular, on our day it was a dark royal blue. The park was very clean, there were plenty of modern facilities and amenities. Many families with children enjoyed the pool and water slides. Everything was well laid out and designed with comfort and privacy in mind. The ladies at reception were super nice, warm and helpful. Thanks for a great stay.

An amazing holiday with the children. The place was modern and clean with everything we needed. The on-site jump pillow and indoor pool with water slides were a hit with the kids. The Cafe had delicious snack food with coffee to match. Located right next to Blue Lake made early morning walks simple. Definitely will be back again.

Second stay here - first time in a villa! And just as amazing as our first visit. Really friendly reception staff. Beautiful upgrades since we were here last, nice coffee from the cafe. Indoor water slides a hit for the kids even though it was a tad on the cooler side. Lakeside villa spacious and very clean. Definitely will be back. Thank you

A fantastic family-friendly park with welcoming staff. The activities organized in partnership with Australian Bush Buddies were a highlight for the kids. The pool water temperature was perfect for little kids to enjoy time in the pool and the slides were enjoyed by all. Conveniently located near the Blue Lake and just a short drive from town, it’s the perfect spot for families to relax and enjoy a memorable getaway.

A beautiful clean well maintained park to stay in, the 2 bedroom unit was spacious and comfortable, the park includes indoor heated pool, jumping pillow and small playground. Is really busy during school holidays. A small walk to blue lake look out points and animal conservation park, 4 night stay for family of 4 we had a wonderful stay.

Fantastic family park. Our cabin was very nice, clean and great size for family of 4. Playground and pool excellent for children. Loved the cafe. We all really enjoyed our 3 night stay

this park was such a gem! went on a gloomy weekday with ample of parking spaces and we were the only the ones there. saw a few wallabies, kingfishers and a herd of kangeroos hopping across the field to hide from the rain! ☔️ very quiet place and the animals doesn’t seem too bothered by our presence. the place is well maintained with walking paths; highly recommended even if it’s raining 🙌🏼🦘

The Valley Lake Conservation Park is a beautiful spot located right next to the Blue Lake and beneath the Centenary Tower. It’s a peaceful escape where you can immerse yourself in both native flora and fauna while enjoying a relaxing stroll. There are a few different walking tracks throughout the park, each offering something a little different, from open grassy clearings to shady woodland paths. We spent around 45 minutes wandering through at a leisurely pace and came across several kangaroos and wallabies grazing quietly, which made the experience even more memorable. The boardwalk section provides great views across the wetlands, while the walk along the edge of Valley Lake itself is equally scenic. The area is well maintained, with clear paths and interpretive signs that explain some of the natural history and wildlife you might encounter. One feature I particularly liked was the bird hide (sometimes called a bird blind). It’s a simple structure with small viewing windows, allowing you to observe local bird species up close in their natural environment without disturbing them. Combined with the wetlands and native plantings, it makes for some excellent photo opportunities. If you’re visiting Mount Gambier and want a quieter, more nature-focused experience, this is an ideal place. A calm and rewarding walk surrounded by wildlife.

Very nice area for picnic or outing. There's many lookout points at this lake. So many birds, ducks in these area. There's playground for kids too. Very serene and beautiful sceneries too. There's ample parking places.

I love that this free! Beautiful nature walk, with board walks, well kept paths and incredible wildlife. Great for bird identification enthusiasts, kids and animal lovers. Wallabies dancing around everywhere!!!

It’s a beautiful, beautiful conservation park. Very serene and scenic. Extremely well maintained. We saw some kangaroos and koalas at the conservation park. There were also lots of different types of birds around. There are lots of places to just sit down and take it all in. It’s a good place to take kids.

No entry fee at all! The visit was great value as you got to see a few different types of flora and fauna. We saw adorable wallabies - adults and babies, an echidna, a very unique goose, some local flora, and many types of birds. Although we didn't see as many animals as we thought, it was a great experience and as a local, I recommend this spot for locals and tourists to visit for a walk and to learn about our local wildlife.

Beautiful view up the walk. Mind you, this is behind the big blue lake view. Look up for the centenary tower in google maps and head there. The walk-up to the Centenary Tower is steep and slippery (may) without proper footwear. I was here when the tower was not open. Fresh air, gorgeous view as you walk up there is magnifikat.

This was a hidden gem ! Worth a visit if you still have some time to spend in Mt Gambier.

It's underrated!! Best views of the valley lake and the play ground. You might find the views better than blue lake on a bright day. Due to sun's position the view gets better in the afternoon.

You can see Bird View for Valley Lake from here. Also, can see a little bit of Mount schank and Centenary tower. On the opposite side, we can Mount Gambier Town from top. Good lookout point.

The walk was not the greatest but the view was better than centenary tower... if you can I would reccomend going here

It’s an aesthetic drive on a short windy mountainous road, shaded on one side by the mountainside edge and its flora, and on the other side, an open picturesque of the town below. If you choose not to drive, there is also a footpath at your convenience, canopied by trees and bushes of the local wildlife and fauna. During the day it presents itself as a nice scenic view overlooking the lakes and the town, depending on which direction you choose to face. The view of the valley lakes is clear and enticing, with a vast array to view from the balcony. At the bottom of a veiled staircase, you can reach a concrete gazebo, which encompasses a distant view of the opposite mountain, peaking atop it the Centenary Tower. At night however, though there isn’t much to see on this side of the lakes, as all you will see is a sea of darkness and the silhouettes of trees in the moonlight, but on the side of the town, it is a harbour of lights in the distance. Yellow, blue, red, green, white... It’s a timeless captivating view of Mount Gambier at night, one surely not to lose its charm anytime soon. And if you head to the Gazebo, at the bottom of the stairs, take a seat on a chair, you can see the illuminating yellow torch that is the Centenary Tower, contrasting against the night sky, with constellations of stars spiraling atop you and it. It has a notorious reputation, Potters Point. A place for lovers, for tourists, for drug dealing… But it brings all of these people to, for the same reason more or less: It is a secluded, picturesque location, that upholds an inconceivable aura to it, both day and night.

Great view of the lake and city.

Great little walk and good view,you can make it a longer walk by going up to the Tower

We’ve been to numerous events over the years and we’ve only had positive experiences. It’s a fantastic facility that’s right in the center of town. 🫶 Amy Shark was high energy and put on a great performance 🎭 🙏🙌

Love this cosy friendly place and its shows. I hope they add more regular programs/shows

Great theatre, very modern & clean. The set up was fantastic. We went to see Leaving Jackson which was absolutely fantastic.

Great comfy atmosphere to enjoy live shows. Tonight's show Steve O was by far brilliantly funny and sick all in the one!

Human Nature live in concert, Fantastic experience

Great place, seating is good, great little bar.

Great venue for arts events. Friendly staff and clean, easy access areas. Suggest easier QR code on entry. Foyer did not have them until customers went up stairs to mezzanine.

Well designed, roomy and light-filled display space. Thoughtfully presented Art Work. Gift Shop has interesting and unique stock sourced from local contributors. Guy Detot exhibit was excellent.

Fun and educational. Interesting free doco on how the lakes formed from volcanic activity. Other exhibitions all beautifully displayed with some interactive activities for the kids.

An excellent regional gallery with some stunning pieces in its collection. The free film Volcano is incredibly informative and a must for anyone visiting this area and southwest Victoria

Most stuff closed for changeover. They had a room with aboriginal art from the 90s which was cool! Lady at front counter 10/10 would be friends with, she was kind af. Good selection in giftshop also. Managed to talk my GF into some art classes as well ;) sneaky.

Thoroughly enjoyed this gallery. The faces of our elder exhibition was great. There is a weird big blue blob out the front though. Kinda looks like Sully from monster inc but more depressed.

Had the chance to visit the exhibition on experimenta life forms and really enjoyed it!

Lady at information center, said it was a must to visit & she wasn't wrong. I watched the 11am session of the volcano movie. Went for an hour and it had my attention the whole time. Fantastic history of the volcano's. I was blown away by the information. The art gallery was just as great. Such great local talent. And some for purchase to. Beautiful modern building.

Stopped for a picnic lunch at Vansittart Park and Botanical Gardens in Mt. Gambier and the facade of Bricks & Mortar Coffee Co. caught our attention. An enticing aroma of coffee greeted us at the threshold, and the lattes served up did not disappoint. Lots of seating inside and outdoors streetside. It is a welcoming environment, and the team is friendly and engaging. Would have picked out a pastry from the display and lingered a bit had we not had to get on our way.

In reference to their sign ‘this is the place I told you about’… this most definitely is a place that I was told about by a colleague who said B&M has the best coffee in the Mount and they didn’t disappoint! Great coffee! Small selection of wraps and other sweet bites. Got Melbourne vibes from this place, would definitely revisit when back in the Mount.

Beautiful coffee shop. Spacious and friendly and right across the park

Stopped here for a flat white on our way through Mt Gambier but the staff were friendly and the coffee was really nice. Coming from a Melbournian I am a snob! Haha.

What a great place to start your day - excellent coffee, friendly service, reasonably priced, the place has its vibe...

absolutely wonderful customer service and experience overall. atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing. love the matcha and chai

I agree with other reviewers, best coffee in Mount Gambier. Prompt and friendly service, just superb coffee, I think their cups are slightly smaller, I like that because it means your coffee tastes better, not to diluted... quality not quantity! Easy parking out front to pick up a coffee on the go. Update Apr 23, still great coffee!

Awesome service! best experience I’ve had at a zamberos. Was served by Tori, excellent customer service food was impeccable. Couldn’t recommend any higher!

Fastest I've ever been served I reckon. Jim was an absolute champion, steller lad I say! Service was friendly and the atmosphere was ecstatic! Highly recommend and will be coming back for more 🤘🏽🤌🏽

Was served by Tori. She made the best burrito I think I’ve ever had from zambreros! Customer service was A1. Highly recommend this establishment

It’s hard to screw up a food chain business, but this place is made brilliant by the awesome customer service. The guy who served my girlfriend and I was quick, welcoming and super helpful for both us and the staff members he was helping train. I didn’t catch his name, and I know he’s only here for a bit, but if this is the standard of the senior staff, the place is in good hands.

The food is amazing, Jesse had great service and was very easy to understand great person and a funny bloke, the place is spotless not loud nice and quite in the store overall great service.

Oh, me dear! Let me tell ye about me delightful experience at Zambreo in Mount Gambier, where I had the pleasure of meeting a lad named Jessie! Now, I may be a hundred years old, but I still have the spirit of a jigging young one, and Jessie brought a sparkle to me day that warmed me heart like a fine Irish whiskey. As I strolled into the establishment after a long, tiresome drive, I was greeted by the most welcoming atmosphere. The place was as clean as a whistle, sparkling like the Emerald Isle itself! The music wafted through the air, lifting me spirits and making me want to dance a jig right there on the spot. Oh, how I do love a good tune! It felt as if the very walls were whispering sweet melodies of joy, inviting all who entered to partake in a feast of flavors. Now, let me tell ye about Jessie! What a gem he is! So talkative and full of life, he made me feel as if I were chatting with an old friend rather than just a customer. His kindness was a breath of fresh air, and he certainly didn’t skimp on the toppings! Each ingredient was piled high, as if he understood that a hearty meal is the best remedy for a weary traveler. I could almost hear the echoes of the Irish hills in his laughter, and I fancied for a moment that he might have a wee bit of Irish blood running through his veins! The food itself was nothing short of fabulous! Fresh and bursting with flavor, it was a delight to me taste buds. I savored every bite, feeling as though I was indulging in a banquet fit for a queen. Jessie’s attentiveness made the experience even more special. He checked in on me, ensuring my meal was to me liking, and his cheerful demeanor made me feel cherished. In conclusion, if ye find yerself in Mount Gambier, do not miss the chance to visit Zambreo! With Jessie at the helm, ye will be treated like royalty, and the food will leave ye singing praises. I left with a full belly and a heart full of joy, ready to dance me way back home. So, here’s to Jessie and the wonderful team at Zambreo! May their kindness and service shine bright, just like the sun over the rolling hills of Ireland!

Great food, great service, great location. My husband loves the burritos and I love my husband!

We were staying in The Commodore and after many days of travel wanted to eat something fresh, not deep fried and healthy. We visited this place casually and were pleasantly surprised. We were late and Restuarant had only few customers eating. Quite comfortable seating and car parking on side street was also easy. Pleasant welcome made us feel like home. Food is out of the world. So nicely and freshly prepared (quite fast also) and what an amazing taste. Excellent value for the money. Recommend this place highly for Asian food.

My husband and I (from VIC) are visiting the town and we decided to spend our dinner here. We are lucky that the place wasn't so busy on a Friday, and we got our good spot. Foods are awesomely delicious! Service is superb! We didn't wait long for the food coz we understand how Asian foods are prepared. The place is spacious for family dining as well. Good lightings which is a plus. Love the Korean chicken, and chef's 3 choices. We highly recommend! And thank you for such great food and services ❤️

Had the panang curry, tom yum fried rice and mixed vegetables. I felt the panang curry was a little lacking, the beef could be a little bit more tender and some vegetable could elevate the dish. It was literally just beef, coconut milk, curry paste. The tom yum fried rice was delicious, and the prawns were large. Vegetable was delicious too. Service was excellent.

Fantastic food especially the Tom Yum Prawns. Friendly service. Wish we lived closer. Went out of our way to go there again. Recommend highly!

Very friendly staff.. Yummy food.. Amazing smiley service.. Love it.

Just had a fabulous dinner here. Thank you for accomodating us as last minute booking. I tell you, this place is really aware with covid restrictions and you could find hand sanitizer even on every table they have. The service was great but waited for the food was a bit long. Overall we are happy because of the delicious food. The location is in the heart of Mount Gambier so it’s very easy to find and park beside the street too. We will come back! 😃

My husband got take away 2 mains with rice. One was supposedly stir fry but was drowned in “gravy” no taste what so ever and sweet & sour chicken, terrible tasteless food. Do yourself a favour, do not waste your money.

Great friendly service from bar manager as we're the rest of the service staff. The pork belly roast was the best I have ever had. Absolutely delicious 😋 would recommend this hotel to anyone passing through or stay a few nights .

SO AMAZING! My partner, friend and I stopped in after a long drive and got amazing service. Staff were so lovely and helpful. Place was clean and looked amazing. The food was a whole new level of amazing. The pork belly was definitely a favourite with us and the gravy that comes with the schnitzel. Tristan was are server and bartender. He was so lovely and friendly. Very happy with him and will be back for his service!

Great Service, especially Brett and Janelle Great cocktails. delicious pan fried chicken Rooms were ok - hood value, they do tell you there’s noise from the club on certain nights, I stayed a week night which was quiet.

My man and I had one of the best meals ever here! Delicious and the best quality and creative food! Huge compliments to the chef! Quick service and above and beyond your average pub menu!

While this bar is clean, modern and boasts something of an upperclass air…its main let down is the staff (all 7 to specific) standing around in a huddle while patrons are waiting to be served…. The boys (who wear neat pants and Macs Hotel Shirts) working their butts off…. The girls touching their breasts in revealing clothing for supposed “content” this makes for a very uncomfortable and unprofessional environment.

Went for dinner, it was very busy but the service was excellent and the meal a good size

Hands down one of the best pub meals I have had. I had the chicken and it was cooked perfectly. So delicious, great service too.

Thyme at the Lakes – Mount Gambier ✭✭✭ Cocktails – 3/5 Appreciate the staff for replacing a cocktail we didn’t like, but overall, they need improvement in flavor balance. ✭✭✭✭✭ Entree – 5/5 The Honeyed Kataifi Avocado Prawn was a perfect combination of crispy kataifi, tender prawn, and creamy avocado—full of flavor and beautifully presented. ✭✭✭✭ Mains – 4/5 The Greek Lamb Rack and Angus Eye Fillet were cooked well and packed with flavor, but for the price, there was room for a little more refinement. ✭✭✭✭✭ Service & Extras – 5/5 Staff were welcoming and attentive. The complimentary zucchini soup shot was a fantastic touch. ✭✭✭✭ Ambience & View – 4/5 The city view was lovely, adding to the atmosphere. Overall: Great food, friendly service, and a pleasant setting. A bit pricey, but a solid dining experience in Mount Gambier. Would recommend! Thank you 🙏

On a recent trip to Mount Gambier with the wife we came across Thyme in the lakes. What an absolutely beautiful meal. The presentation was beautiful and the flavors were amazing. Great views over the town. Nice cosy place and a beautiful atmosphere. There was a celebration happening while we were there and it wasn’t loud. Big space. Great service and friendly staff. Would highly recommend.

What more can you ask for, eating beautifully prepared food in a stunning location. We were looked after so well by the lovely, friendly staff, a special mention to Chloe for her exceptional service and great sense of humour. A very clean and well cared for restaurant, it’s great to see sparkling clean windows which showcase the view.

Food was amazing. My beautiful dessert was a work of art. Our wonderful host Angelina was also lovely

Great food and amazing service. The staff were warm friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend if you are visiting Mt. Gambier

Good food, nice quiet weekday lunch and friendly staff

It was such a perfect day today, warm and cosy inside overlooking town while enjoying dishes that were faultless in both flavour and presentation. To top it off the service was outstanding. When in town next I will definitely be back. Thank you.
