Mietta's Review
Koukla is the cafe section of the long running Dayelsford stalwart, Frangos and Frangos. A homely mish mash of furniture, an open fire and good service and good cafe meals, often using local products, make this pleasant stop near the spa.

Other published opinions

The Age Cheap Eats 2005 "THE op-shop-chic interior - wooden floorboards, mismatched furniture and specials chalked on the walls - belies a seriously good dining experience."

The Age Cheap Eats 2004 "BE warned that an afternoon spent sipping local wine in the sun at Koukla might result in delays to those plans for spas, lakeside walks and the return to Melbourne."

The Foodies' Guide 2004,Allan Campion & Michele Curtis,'This smart cafe picks up and runs with a menu offering well-made gusty Mediterranean dishes.They have good breakfasts while later in the day they serve crisp thin-crusted pizzas and pasta dishes with full flavours.'

AGFG 2004, two courses for $25 or less, wide selection of vegetarian dishes, excellent breakfasts

Vogue Entertaining and Travel, March/April 2003, more casual than frangos and frangos, for breakfast, pasta, pot roasts and wood fired pizza until late.
