This episode is about an Italian restaurant in Toorak on Grange Road in Toorak in Melbourne. There’s dedicated parking outside the restaurant and the restaurant is completely level throughout the restaurant and there’s a public toilet across from the restaurant which is kind of accessible but could be a little bit narrow to get access to but the restaurant itself was accessible and they also have...

Went to the Oz Comic Con this weekend at the Melbourne Showgrounds for their Christmas edition. The building was completely accessible to everyone including a ramp going down to the lower level where the exhibits were located and they had two separate disabled toilets available in the exhibition hall that they were having it in. Then there’s an outdoor area where they have food trucks available fo...

Went to see the stage show performance at the Comedy Theatre in Melbourne which was called A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens the author. This theatre was pretty accessible with a temporary ramp going into the building and had an accessible bathroom with a working lock on the door. The only accessible seating area is the stalls area of the theatre as there’s no elevator going up to the second le...

In this 5th episode I talk about my two local cinemas Rosebud and Sorrento cinemas. I mostly go to the Rosebud Cinema as they have 5 screens there and they show movies more often then Sorrento Cinema does which only has 3 cinemas. But the Rosebud location is bigger and better and is completely 100% accessible to everyone as they have dedicated disabled parking bays directly outside and then there’...

This weekend I attended the Oz Comic Con over the June Queen’s Birthday Long Weekend at the Melbourne Exhibition and Convention Centre and I also attended another convention here earlier this year which was the Melbourne Disability Expo which I think was held in March or April this year. The whole entire building was fully accessible including several disabled toilets which were quite roomy and ha...

I recently had lunch at the Rosebud Pub in their bistro area and the whole building was fully accessible and there’s a dedicated accessible toilet area next to the bar. However the door leading into the bathroom area where all the bathrooms were located seemed a little bit heavy on the door which also opened inward along with the disabled toilet room door as where it opened inward as well. It woul...

Went to a restaurant in Chapel Street in South Yarra in Melbourne recently called Chapellis and it’s located at 571 Chapel Street in South Yarra in Melbourne but they didn’t have any accessible toilets in the restaurant other then a accessible entrance on the side street. The restaurant was only half accessible but if you need to go to the toilet you’ll have to find somewhere else to go but the re...
