Enjoy a meal surrounded by the wonders of the deep at Driftwood Café – the newest attraction at Lots of Fins Aquarium mega-store in Narre Warren.
Owner Paul Furlong is proud to say that his is the first store in Melbourne to have a fully-fledged café in an aquarium.
Now that Covid-19 restrictions have been eased, visitors are able to enjoy a socially-distanced meal, with staff focusing on providing a more gourmet experience: think homemade pastries, pies, sausage rolls and quiches, toasties, muffins, focaccias and slices, premium Ugandan coffee and spectacular drinks piled with freshly whipped cream.
“Our goal is to provide the best quality, service and variety – our shop is based on the wow factor!” Paul explains.
Dine-in customers will find themselves seated in front of a 15-foot aquarium that is sure to mesmerise.
Best of all, with every bite customers are supporting a global community: all profits from Lots of Fins go towards supporting communities in need overseas.
It’s something Paul is incredibly passionate about, and the reason why he re-established Lots of Fins four years ago.
Over the years he has set up more than 25 orphanages and rescue centres, drilled fresh-water bores and wells, and provided free concerts to bring joy to whole villages.
Lots of Fins’ 450 square-metre showroom has been open for exactly a year now, and has attracted a steady stream of customers keen to grow their home aquariums. It will soon be home to nine more three-foot tropical plant display tanks, as well as vivarium terrariums.
“I can safely say we have the biggest range of tropical commercial fish and aquatic plants in Melbourne,” Paul explains – and that, coupled with his enviable 20 years of experience in the industry, is the reason why he attracts customers from across Victoria.
“This shop is the best I’ve learned in 20 years in terms of quality, variety, presentation and customer service.”
Lots of Fins is currently offering a 20 percent discount on small aquariums. Plus, present this article instore at Driftwood Café when you buy one drink to get another free (offer expires 21 June).
