You can dine in or get take away. Translation sometimes gets lost so it might be wise if they got a caucasian on staff for those of us who can not pronounce things the right way. These people are happy to add in or take out ingredients, something a lot of places wont do and their food is always very tasty with good flavour right to the end of the food. The takeaway is not 3/4 rice as with some places, pretty good value for money. Get help if you want to phone order - this can be difficult if you cant get across what you want as they are not good with english. Main thing, food is pretty good.

Approximate cost: $15

I like this place, its funky and cool, makes me feel a tiny bit younger but they seriously need to get some systems in place for ordering and ditching yesterdays sandwiches that are sitting soggy bottomed in their display cabinet. Food is not bad, value - hard to judge but service, total shocker. I have dined in and raced in for takeaway - big mistake. The order taker serves tables, makes toast, makes coffee and when done takes the next order. Very frustrating.

These are the only Fish and Chjip shop I have ever come across that do crumbed fish properly. They dont shove your dinner in a box, they wrap it like fish n chips should be. Here is a big tip for you - ask for a large tub of tartare sauce - they have them out the back and you will have enough for two meals, best tatare (beside mums)ever. I respect that they do not open in Sundays but I really wish they did. I highly recommend their great friendly service, and very delicious fish n chips.

Approximate cost: $10

What an amazing little tinket of a gallery. I have been meaning to write this review for a little while and yet another purchase has spurred me on to do so. Very helpful staff, even a little something not on public view was made available for me to consider.
I love that this gallery does showings for artists who simply have no where else - but the work is certainly far from amateur. If you are looking for some life for your ounge, hall, bedroom or even outdoor dining area pop into this tiny little gallery and have a poke around, they are very helpful, particularly a little lady called Shini.

What a refreshing change, young ladies who clearly had been drilled in the art of service. I recently had to update my broken workbag that has to carry laptop and a myriad of daily objects but did not want another briefcase. This charming, well presented young brunette so so helpfull that I actually purchased a couple of items. Not at all pushy just suggestive and gave me options, real options. She listened to ehat I needed and found me a good selection to um and ah over. Everyone is having bag sales so you will get a good price but for service - you can not go past this little shop.

Approximate cost: $40

What a chauvenistic bunch these blokes are. If you want to be treated like an idiot and obviously dont have your boy shots on then do visit this bunch of wallies.
They only talk bloke and are as helpfull as the most annoying mosquito you have ever experienced.
Good product range but service for ladies is just not at all a priority.

Approximate cost: $fair

I have used this service over the last few years and had a few good experiences with accomodation and a few average. My last two bookings have been totally mucked upand the office people at Take A Break were not at all helpfull. I was a little disappointed with their attitude and their lack of consideration towards a customer.

When you can buy in bulf, this place saves you a bundle and the cut of the beef is always really good. I like the layout of the shop, its really wasy to find everything, its well set out and very clean. When you buy small quantities its not as well priced but still a lot better than the supermarkets and most importantly its all good quality.

Approximate cost: $well priced

Its very unfortunate when your dog goes in happy and well socialized and comes out after just one day at this place with dog bites and a vey nervous disposition.
Do not use this place. The staff are aweful.

Approximate cost: $overpriced

I have used this company on three occassions for my work in the last few months. They are very helpfull, go out of their way to fond you the right car and are very flexible on price and time considerations. I highly recommend them.

Approximate cost: $39 per day
