I received a quote to have a tree stump removed from my courtyard. When I got home from work on the day is was due to be removed, it was still there. I had to call twice over three days to find out that they could not fit their machine into my yard. I asked if they could at least cut it down below ground level so that i could plant over it. they said that would be fine and would come around to look at it again. After a week, they had not returned. I called three times and my calls were not returned. That was a month ago. they obviously didn't want to do it so just ignored me until i went away. Most disgusting customer service i have ever received. They could have at least said they couldn't do the job so i could organise someone else.

Approximate cost: $?

One of my fave restaurants. The service is friendly and prompt, and the food is great. We always order extra when we dine in and the staff are happy to put it all in a diggy bag to take home. The best left overs ever!

Approximate cost: $18

This hairdresser works from home and I promise that she has the cheapest services in Adelaide without skimping on quality of service. Deb will be honest with what you want and gives great advice if she thinks your idea may not work - she has saved me a few times!

Approximate cost: $90

Went there with a bridal party for a wedding. We were told we had to straighten our own hair the night before. The girls didn't curl our hair properly and were very rough which made it very uncomfortable as i can't stand having my hair pulled. The diamond clips they put in our hair (which we supplied ourselves) were put in crooked and the curls that they did get right dropped by the time we got home from the salon. We had to do our hair all over again. I sent a complaint to head office and received a reply that basically defended their actions (the reply addressed things i hadn't even mentioned which makes me wonder if she even read the complaint properly) and said they don't give refunds but i could come in for a complimentary 'blowdry and style'. i hardly think I would go back! If i did, I would assume that I would be asked to straighten my own hair before I got there!!!! To sum it up - an absolute waste of money for a job that was done better by ourselves when we got home.

This review is for Andersen's Of Denmark Icecream, Glenelg SA

verified email - 06 Sep 2009

The ice cream here is great and the variety is very good. I think the only problem (along with all shops on Jetty Road) is that in the summer months it becomes extremely busy and the wait can be a bit long but in the end it is worth it.

Approximate cost: $5.00

The shop has the best range of all kinds of homewares and other bits of pieces from manchester to scrapbooking supplies. The prices are also quite reasonable and they have some good bargains.

This review is for Jacks Fish Shack, Glenelg SA

The service is very prompt and friendly upon arrival and is consistant throughout the course of the visit. I like the fact that all the seafood on offer has the option of fried, crumbed or grilled and they have the best garlic bread ever! Their light lunch specials are really good too and resonably priced.

Approximate cost: $22.00

This review is for Glenelg Cycles, Glenelg SA

I did not know anything about buying a bike when I went in there. The service was great. The guys down there explained everything to me so I knew what i was buying. They were also slightly cheaper than the other bike shops. I was really impressed that they assembled it for me and I walked out of the shop all prepared for a great bike ride.

Approximate cost: $599

This review is for Grand Bar, Glenelg SA

I have been here on many weekends and during the day, it is a great place to chill out with a few drinks however, during the summer and weekend evenings I find it gets too crowded and can often be uncomfortable. The dance floor is too small.

I have been here on many occasions and I have never had a problem with their food, service and prices. The place is always clean and the food is always served efficiently.

Approximate cost: $8.00
