Booked a table for 10 of us for lunch on Australia Day. The place was busy, however the staff were friendly and attentive. We don’t wait long for our food and it was good. We Will definitely be back. BTW very kid and dog friendly.

A happy surprise for us including our puppy ! The foods were wonderful and atmosphere was very cozy, natural and beautiful. Most of all, they allowed dogs in/ outside of the place so our kids were very happy to enjoy the great lunch together with our hairy companion. Parking was so easy, utilizing Coles car park, next door. Highly recommend for all dog lovers & families !

The Mona Vale is a lovely spot for families — the outdoor playground is a real highlight, and it's clear that a lot of thought has gone into making the space welcoming for kids and parents alike. The food is also delicious, especially the pizza. 5 out of 5. Just a small note: there is a baby changing table available in the disabled toilet, which is good to have but I think it could benefit from a little upgrade. The female toilet has a little corner which is nice and quiet and which could do so well with a simple Kmart or Target changing table. It would also be good to have a spare one, in case the one in the disabled toilet was busy - especially when there are so many young families over the weekend. I hope this can be taken as friendly feedback!

The atmosphere is wonderful, and the spacious and diverse space is perfect for parties and family gatherings. Pets are allowed, and there's a safe and comfortable play area for children. The food is reasonably priced and delicious. Best of all, the staff's cheerful demeanor is a delight to watch, and the live music adds to the lively atmosphere. 👍💕🎶

Came in for a feed as the kitchen was closed at Modus and tucked into the Fried Chicken burg which wasn’t bad. Stayed for a few more beers with Mountain Culture Status Quo on tap for the Independent breweries and think I saw a Modus tap too, other than that looked like the usual Japanese owned beers on tap that I try to avoid. Not in a rush to come back.
