The pizza from Charli Bean is absolutely delicious. Huge, generous with toppings and very traditional and tasty. The staff are lovely and helpful. I really hope this business does well because it’s fantastic!! Have had yummy takeaway coffee from there over the last few weeks!

What a breath of fresh air for McCrae and the plaza. These guys have opened up breakfast lunch and dinner on its way as is a liquor license. The coffee is quality and can recommend the chilli eggs and can’t wait for the pizza and night time trade. Young fun team.. disappointed to read a negative review when they have only been open 8 days… who would do this to a new business. Coming together nicely guys and girls! Keep up the great work
