I love Gloria Jeans flavoured coffees. The shop at Highpoint is really tiny, and not inviting to stay there for long, so perfect for takeaway. Not as nice or complete as other shops of the franchise. The staff are very hard-working and friendly, and service is always prompt, but paying 6+ bucks for a small flavoured coffee is a bit too much and really I doubt that I will go back.

Dumplings Plus (Highpoint Shopping Centre, Maribyrnong Vic)
I prefer this shop on the ground to the one on the 2nd floor in Highpoint.
I like their steamed dumpling baskets; they are generous in size, fresh, and the filling is good. My fav dumplings are the chicken & ginger, and the prawn & chives. My main complain is that they tend to be over-steamed, so the dough gets a bit dry and sticky after being on the hot cabinet for a while. Also, I found big chunks of shell from the prawns inside the dumplings.
Good cheap jasmine tea pots.
Very friendly accommodating staff.
If you cannot finish your dish, ask for a takeaway container!
It has a very friendly staff, quick service and an ample seating area, however, the tables lacked small dishes to put the sauces.

La Porchetta (Highpoint Shopping Centre, Maribyrnong Vic)
If you are hungry and craving carbs in the Highpoint shopping mall this is your place. They have a mix of pasta and pizza dishes, with different sizes on offer. I had one of their small pizzas (the sausage, broccoli and ricotta) and it was very tasty. Not bad, but not good either. The small size is more than enough for lunch.
Friendly caring staff.
Outdated premises.
I found the prices on the high side for what they serve, but this is Highpoint.
