King St Backpackers is one of the better backpackers to stay in Melbourne. It is pretty clean. I recently stayed there in January and they were more than helpful to assist me with my difficult booking and even when I wanted to leave a day early, they were happy to refund me for that day. Would definitely recommend.

Approximate cost: $25-$35

Nick at Allsorts is so unbelievably helpful. I've dealt with my fair share of sports centres and he is also quick to respond to you and friendly and willing to go out of his way.
The court here is big and the floor is good and shoes don't get sticky on it. It is well maintained.
The only downfall would be that it is a little hard to find at first and it's a little bit on the pricier end of games but it's worth it.

Travelled to Port Macquarie recently and stayed at the Caravan park. The service was very friendly and it was a very decent price. Standard cabins are as expected for the price but if you are on a budget, this is the place to go! Very close to beach.

Leanne was so helpful! I initially enquired about a trip to China and in the end as she was so helpful and thorough, decided to just go ahead and book through her. Recommended to me by a friend, I would recommend Leanne to anyone! :)

I am a theatre director and we have had 2 shows here now at the Tap Gallery. The staff are really friendly and helpful. It's quite unique and has an eclectic art collection downstairs and is available to have your own art exhibits there. I wouldn't recommend eating here as there is a limited choice but coffee is ok while sitting in the vintage lounge.

A very unique coffee experience. You walk in feeling like you've stepped back in time. There were 9 of us coming in for a coffee and late breakfast. Very friendly staff who assisted us in moving tables together so we could all sit together and the food was pretty good too. Very reasonably priced apart from the banana bread at $6! But I think it was organic.
Recommend for a Sunday morning.

We went to Club Tuggerah for my Dad's birthday dinner last week. It was pretty quiet there being New Year's Day but when 12 of us walk in ready for a meal, they were more than accommodating. The food was fantastic if you got the chinese food, however we had some problems with the steaks that were over cooked. So my advice is to order chinese.
They are about to embark on some great renovations too which will make Club Tuggerah the place to be.

Approximate cost: $5-$20

I play poker weekly at Canterbury Hurlstone Park RSL and always find the staff friendly and helpful. The food here is reasonably priced and there are lots of options on the menu. They also have a fitness centre here and function rooms. Caters to everyone and I enjoy coming every week.

Had my sister's 21st there so there were a lot of us. I really like how they take your order on the electronic things and it sends it straight to the kitchen ensuring your food comes out quickly. By the time they had finished taking all of our orders, the first orders had started to arrive. Prompt and fresh and reasonably priced!

Approximate cost: $8-$30

Called to make a booking close to Christmas and they were very helpful and friendly. Our booking was for 20 people and they accommodated us very well. Food was at a great price - 2-4-1 on Tuesday's and we all had an enjoyable time. Staff were friendly.

Approximate cost: $10-$30
