Delicious food!!!! Aamazingly soft, fluffy, light and fresh pancakes that just melt in your mouth. Lots of great options to add on top of the pancakes - sweet or savoury. The lemon curd was the best we have ever had and it should be bottled and able to buy to take home - yum yum! They made our day by highlighting my mum’s birthday and made it extra special for her which was a lovely surprise. Thanks for an awesome and yummy brunch!!! :)

If you are looking for a dining experience that offers both amazing food and a warm, comfortable atmosphere, this is it. We had an all-round great experience. The entrees and main meals were brilliant—well-prepared, tasty, and full of rich flavours. What truly sets this place apart, though, is the customer service. The staff were attentive and friendly, and the owners went out of their way to come out, greet us, and chat with our two children. That level of genuine friendliness made us feel right at home. Thank you for a lovely night

Our first time at Shorty’s we were very impressed. A lovely setting, easy parking, extensive menu and specials, staff were friendly and helpful, and the food was great. I only marked it down a little because it was too cold inside - the air con was up too high.

We came in for the Monday bottomless pasta deal and our waitress Shania was so lovely! She was very attentive despite having a busy section (which she managed well). Friendly, professional and sincere, even when the kitchen was busy. She checked on us throughout the meal and looked after the table well, upselling aditional drinks and organising the next round of pasta. As someone who has worked in hospitality entirely too long, I was quite impressed. Shania is an absolute credit to your restaurant, a genuine gem.
