You can grab them for under a $15!
Red Beetle Cafe
Known for their easy grab-and-go meals, Red Beetle Cafe has some amazing options for under $15! Eat their house-made sandwiches such as their Turkish Chicken Pesto Roll with mayonnaise, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and avocado, all on a Turkish Roll. For veggie lovers, grab their Veggie Turkish Roll with grilled mixed vegetables, pesto, olives, spinach, and feta. Eat at your desk or head out into the sunshine and lap up those rays.

Find Blue Marlin at Shop 11, Caroline Springs Blvd, Caroline Springs VIC 3023.
Nandos
Another great grab n’ go option is Nandos! Although they are known for their chicken tenders and roasts, don’t go past the spicy chicken BLT ($12.95), the vegetarian Halloumi ($12.95), or their Double Chicken, Cheese and Bacon Burger ($13.95). Bask in the sunshine at their large group tables – great for a late lunch after a meeting. If you have some change, splurge on some chips and a drink.

Subway
Grab a whole footlong sub filled with your favourite fillings for under $15! The best part about Subway is that you can pick and choose your sandwich. Some of our favourites include the Chicken and Pepperoni, Teriyaki Chicken and BLT! It’s our go- between meetings or for an after-work treat.

5 of the best desserts at Central Shopping Centre
Enjoy a sweet treat or savoury bite at some of our favourite dessert spots at Central Shopping Centre in Caroline Springs! From Sticky Date Pudding to your favourite Cold Rock concoction, Nutella pizzas and more – check out five of the best places to check out for a post-dinner treat:
Cold Rock
A Caroline Springs classic – Cold Rock is a must-go for those balmy summer nights. Pick from a load of flavours as your base (including vegan / dairy free flavours), then select your mix-ins! The team will then smash it up together for you to enjoy. You can even order 1L tubs to enjoy at home (…or in store, we don’t judge!). Our favourite combo is a chocolate base with choc chips, a brownie and fudge sauce. If you are celebrating a birthday – Cold Rock also does ice-cream cakes too. Find them at Shop 26/13-15 Lake St!
Red Beetle
The team at Red Beetle have a great range of desserts on offer – over ten available! Munch on their sugary cinnamon apple crumble pancakes or one of their moreish New York cheesecakes. If you prefer to drink your dessert – they make an incredible Baileys Hot Chocolate! We also have a soft spot for their easy-to-grab Chocolate Brownie Muffin too. Find Red Beetle at Shop 23/13-15 Lake St.
Burgertory
The best sort of dessert is one after a sinful burger at Burgertory! Indulge in their house-made Baklava – puff pastry sandwiched between different flavours including Biscoff and Nutella, red velvet and pistachio, just to name a few. If you are grabbing something to share, their delicious donut fries with chocolate sauce are a must-have. Find Burgertory at Shop 15B/13-15 Lake Street.
Pizza Addiction
Smashed down a margarita pizza and on the hunt for something sweet? You have to grab Pizza Addiction’s Nutella Bite. This bite is similar to a Calzone – soft bread sandwiched between Nutella and dusted with icing sugar. We give it a 10/10! Find Pizza Addiction at Shop 3/ 218-222 Caroline Springs Boulevard.
Madame West
Some people prefer to end their evening on a savoury note, which is why we love Madame West’s cheese platter! Choose from a variety of cheeses from That’s Amore Cheesemonger, some fresh fruits and crackers. Don’t forget to pair it with a classic cocktail like a Negroni or an Espresso Martini for a night cap. Find Madame West at 15a/218-222 Caroline Springs Boulevard.
