I recently went to Lombards to purchase party goods. The staff are shocking! People were waiting with 1 girl serving whilst another 2 sales people walked around! I ordered a helium tank to blow up 40 balloons and the tank only blew up 20. They did refund my money for the error. They definitely need to work on their customer service skills.

The food at 4 Doors is delicious. The staff are lovely and I have been there 3 times and on all occasions they have been friendly and prompt with the service. The donuts are delicious!!! The only thing is that it is a bit pricey for the food.

Approximate cost: $20 - 25

This review is for Kiddies Dental Care, Essendon VIC

I booked my son to see the dentist at this specialised childrens dentist. My son was previously frightened to see other dentists due to a bad experience. Upon entering this dentist, it was cosy and very inviting for children. There was a small table with colouring sheets & pencils, 2 televisions for children to play the Sony playstation, books & toys. The dentist himself was wonderful! He was very gentle and explained everything calmly and in a way that my son also understood. Luckily his teeth are great and no other treatment was needed but I also didn't feel like I was pressured in having x-rays or other cleaning. My son was excited about his new toothbrush and special toy he got to chose for having clean teeth and for being a good boy. I won't be going anywhere else!

I popped into this butcher shop recently and was stuck on what to cook for dinner. The butcher recommended marinated lamb and I must say it was delicious. The meat in the case looks very fresh and the butcher is really friendly. Customer service was just like the good old days!!

I recently had my second child at Northpark and the midwives were wonderful. I was having a hard night one particular evening settling my baby and the midwife was terrific consoling me and my baby. One particular midwife - Lee was outstanding! Thankyou for making my stay enjoyable & relaxing.

This review is for Footprints Plumbing, Eltham VIC

I called Footprints Plumbing as we had a leaking tap that was dripping uncontrollably. Out of 3 plumbers I called, Peter Bell was the only person that called me back and also managed to come out to my house within the hour. He went out of his way to fix my tap and was friendly, courteous and professional. Will definitely use this plumber again.

I have used this company before and were ok. However this year were completely HOPELESS! I arranged an appointment with this company 3 times and all 3 times there was an excuse. The first time they showed up on the wrong day. The second time they phoned due to the rain - which is fine. The third time they phoned to say they had to re-schedule due to a family funeral - fine again. The fourth time not only did they not ring, but they didn't show up again! My husband and I wasted the day sitting at home and there was no message left on our answering machine, no missed call and no courtesy phone call! When I did ring the following day, they didn't even have my booking written in the diary!!! They don't provide a mobile number so if you try to call on the weekend, you get no answer and have to wait until the week day! These people have no idea how to run a business and have wasted my time more than once!

This review is for Vivere, South Morang VIC

My husband and I dined for lunch on a beautiful sunny day with our son. We sat outside in an enclosed area which was perfect with a child who brought along his trucks! My son ordered a milkshake and I was excited to see that the waitress brought it out in a take-away coffee cup with a lid and had the straw inserted in the sipping section. Perfect size and perfect as it was spill proof! I commented on just that little cup made a huge difference and we didn't have to hold it for him! I ordered a calamari salad which was superb and my husband ordered linguini with meatballs which he raved about! I will definitely dine here again! Perfect food and wonderful service!

I purchased a gorgeous pair of boots but upon taking them home and trying with different outfits I realised that the boots were far too tight in the foot and an exchange or refund was required. The sales assistant at the store plus her manager were more than happy to do either. I had passed the 2 week refund policy but I was more than happy to exchange. They totally went out of their way to assist me in buying a new pair of boots that suited my lifestyle and feet. They took their time showing me different styles and were extremely friendly. I left the store feeling satisfied and happy about the wonderful customer service that I had received. My new boots are beautiful!

This review is for Sutherlands Child Care, Diamond Creek VIC

I would like to comment on the terrific job the early learning teachers do at Sutherland's. My son absolutely loves attending day care and he is thriving in his learning and social skills. The Director - Veronica, is a professional woman who is also caring. I am allowed to call during the day to see how my child is going. The teachers listen to the parents and cater for the child's individual needs. My son is seen as an individual - not as a person in a large group! Thankyou so much for making this experience extremely pleasant. I really feel like you are family.
