This is a great little wellness store with very nice staff. I've been there for aroma massages and enjoyed them a lot! The staff is very skilled and friendly. The atmosphere is very relaxing. No complaints whatsoever :)

If you are up for a nice (sweet) snack, this café has some delicious offerings. They are pretty cheap with most of the bakery things between $1.50 and $3. While they also have some savoury goods, most of them still have a sweetish taste to them. It's actually quite good if you are open for it. Give I a try! Especially as you can get a good meal for just a few bucks if you take a nice combination.

They also have a variety of delicious cakes. But they are quite pricey.

This is a chain of several cafés in Sydney. I'm most familiar with their store in Kingsford, but they also have others in Meriton, Chatswood and Parramatta.

We have brought our car there twice for the regular service. They are doing a great job and the staff is quite nice, but the price is definitely at the upper end.

A friend of mine recommended this pizza restaurant to me. It's nice and cozy inside and the pizzas are very good. Well worth the visit if you are nearby. Service is also quick and deliveries are free.

Approximate cost: $20

I had some good food (especially the steaks) at Maroubra Bay Hotel. It's in a great location just by the beach and it looks nice inside (was renovated quite recently). However, I can't recommend it really during the evening because of the rather dodgy customers occasionally.

Arthur's is one of the best places to get pizza in Sydney. The pizzas are just delicious, the thin crust is really good, the service is pretty quick, and they not too expensive either. The interior design is not so nice, so just head down to the beach with your pizza instead, and make sure to confirm your order - I had a couple of instances where the guy at the counter got it wrong at first.

Approximate cost: $20

This is very nice little café right by Maroubra beach. I really like the decoration and atmosphere inside, and food and drinks are very good and fresh as well. It's a great place for breakfast or lunch on a nice sunny day.

I love the concept. Looks very modern inside, the staff is friendly and helpful, and you can even reserve movies online. Price is also very good and you can get your and return your movies around the clock. Wish they had a slightly better collection of movies - especially the back catalogue could do with some additions.
