Nice position to have ice cream after dinner, they have a nice 2 scoop cup take away for a reasonable price. Quite a few flavours to be had. Their sundaes are always fantastic, i have had a 10 person sundae with a group of friends and we could barely finish it! The presentation was wonderful and the ice cream tasted even better. Sometimes the service is slow when its really busy, but the ice cream makes up for it.

Very nice pub upstairs with the latest renovations. They have a great open top roof with a center piece and an awning which automatically comes out when its raining. The new bistro is nice, ive had the burger and chips and it was a very nice meal. Great mood setting and nice venue for meeting up with friends. You can also hire out a section upstairs when having a function (although the area is just roped off). The pub closes at 12 generally but the renovations have really spruced this pub up compared to what it used to be.

This review is for The Courthouse Hotel, Newtown NSW

Terrific pub with lots of character, The courthouse has one of the best beer gardens in Newtown. Nice outdoor area with big sails to cover overhead, does get very busy so the queues for the bar can be quite big but ive never had to wait long for my food to be ready. Great menu with lots to choose from.

Great place! Have been here many times now and the food is tops, really enjoy the fish and chips whenever i go. They have a great cocktail hour on friday night as well as two enjoyable outside areas (one is like a fishbowl). Great place to hang out with friends and the prices are decent for drinks, especially for Newtown.

This review is for Victoria Park Swimming Pool, Camperdown NSW

This is a great outdoor pool in an easy to access location which i enjoy visiting in summer. I have spent time at this pool doing laps or just taking a leisurely swim with friends. The facilities look great (although i have only ever swam). The price isnt too bad compared to other pools and its much easier to get too compared to the beach. The areas surround the pool are also a nice spot to enjoy lunch.

This review is for Clems Chicken Shop, Newtown NSW

Great place for Chicken and Chips or a variety of other take away foods. They have everything from roasts, lasagne, burgers and other fast food options. My favourite dish is their big chips and gravy. The service is quick, however the store is usually busy so you have to be assertive to get served.

A fantastic themed bookshop that always gets my attention. Fantasty being my favourite genre they have many unusual books which i havent seen elsewhere as well as a range of figurines and movies. The layout of the store is good and themed perfectly. Another store i spend too much time in.

Very cool bookshop with a large range of all genres, a shop i can really get lost in if i have enough time! Everytime i visit i find i spend longer and longer in store, the atmosphere of the store is fantastic and 9 out of 10 times they have the books that im after.

This review is for Paris Seafood Cafe, La Perouse NSW

Paris is one of my favourite fish and chip locations in Sydney. They have a fantastic batter which they use on their fish and chips that just melts in your mouth. They also have a nice mix of seafood dishes if im feeling like something different. Everytime i have been there i have been served quickly and by friendly staff. Each time i have received my food very quickly.

This review is for Japan City, Sydney NSW

Cool range of Japanese statues, clothes, ornaments, home wares and furniture. Too many things I wish I could afford. I picked up a really nice chopstick set. The staff are nice but can be a bit hard to understand.
