I've bought a gift there and a small pencil case once and the quality of the goods was terrific! The atmosphere of the place was great. The staff were fairly friendly and the shop was filled with vibrant colours, everywhere u look! I found the goods a little expensive but overall it was a good and worthwhile experience.

I've been there only a couple of times myself and while they are cheap and of fair quality, i have found there to be little topping and far too much cheese. It is quick to congeal and they must be eaten almost straight away. Despite this, the ingredients are fresh and its a fairly clean place. For the pizzas that you get, the price of $7.50 reveals that it is relatively inexpensive for the quality.

Approximate cost: $8

Terrific burgers and their chips are also a delight. I've only eaten there twice but they do not hold back on the quality! Fantastic!! No other fast food chain (eg. McDonalds, Hungry Jacks) is a match for these burgers. They took a little while to arrive with the food but it was all worth the wait.

Very neat and orderly. Most books at a reasonable price. Extensive range of CD's and books all stacked nicely. However, few people to assist customers in such a large shop. Found i was waiting in line to pay for goods a little too long. Otherwise, not bad.

This review is for Village Cinema (Knox Gold Class), Wantirna South VIC

Tickets were horrendously expensive for sitting in a recliner chair with only a few other people sharing the room with you. I would almost have preferred to be with 30 other people in a cinema and laugh with them when the movie was funny and cringe when it wasn't. $30 per person and no attachments, all drinks and pop-corn were at an extra cost.
However, the movie itself wasn't too bad and i was in good company, which made the experience worthwhile.

Approximate cost: $30 +

It is clean with rich colours and a pleasant atmosphere. Service is good with friendly staff, although i guess it can vary with chain businesses. It is certainly the best set of chain cinemas. There is plenty of leg room and staff are generally very organised, with everything happening in an orderly fashion.
Overall, a good experience.

This review is for Hoyts, Forest Hill VIC

I found the standard of hoyts in forest hill to be of a far lower standard than that of Eastland. Although the service was fast and effective, the seats inside the cinema were uncomfortable with little leg room. The screens themselves i found small and the atmosphere lacking in quality.
However, the prices are attractive. Tickets are far cheaper than at Village cinemas although it is obvious why.
I would visit again if i was going to see a movie i wasn't positive i'd enjoy anyway.

This review is for Fitness First, Wantirna VIC

I began at Fitness First because my friend gave me a free weekly pass to try it out. It started off well with very friendly people and good facilities. There is no pressure to be the best or the whole "you're not fit enough to work out on this". It's a relaxed environment.
However, on the other hand... Its is sooooo expensive! A quote i received estimated the cost to be around $1000 a year, which for people who aren't working full time, is usually more than they can afford.
Overall, a good but costly past-time and one that can be undertaken at a cheaper price.

This review is for Hog's Breath Cafe, Wantirna South VIC

I have been there now twice and both times it has been a very satisfying experience. Although the time we waited for our food and the friendliness of the service could have been speedier and improved, the food was of good quality with more than decent amounts. I ordered a garlic, mushroom steak and it was delicious! The atmosphere was pleasant and although i found the prices a bit of a drawback. They're not cheap.
However, overall a good meal and i would certainly visit again.

This review is for Vermont Value Vet, Vermont VIC

We have been in Vermont for several years now and have never found fault in Dr Meredith's practices. She is kind, sensitive, caring and was very understanding when we had to put down one our most loved pets. All the staff are friendly with lovely smiles and lively personalities.
