Excellent pet supply shop. The staff were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable with a bird specialist on staff to provide detailed advice. They were happy to order items in for us, and didn't push for a sale. They have a good range of bird toys, and appear to cater well for other pet owners too.

I was recommended to this place by a friend and they didn't disappoint. The service was friendly and efficient. I got a very thorough eye test and lots of suggestions for my new glasses, as well as good advice on lenses. They were even happy to stay open late so I could collect them after work.

This review is for Waverley Cinema, Mount Waverley VIC

A family-run business which actually supports it's local community. The seats are not top-of-the-range, but they are comfortable and the projection is perfect. The prices are very reasonable, and they have many (not all) of the latest releases just after they come out in the mainstream cinemas.

Approximate cost: $7.50

This review is for Bendigo Bank (Pinewood), Mount Waverley VIC

I have two accounts and several insurance products through the bank. The main selling point for me was how friendly the staff were, and how they make you feel like a valued customer, not an annoyance. After only one visit the staff knew my name. I like that the bank also gives back to the community by supporting local clubs.

I regularly order take-away from them using their clever online system. The pizzas are tasty, but delivery can be slow. The delivery option is a little pricey, but very convenient.

Approximate cost: $15

We tried pizza from them a few times. Service was usually grumpy and slow. Pizzas were very doughy with not much in the way of toppings, and on our last visit they wouldn't accept their chain's own coupons.

A good place to get hard-to-find organic foods, but very prices for many items, even mainstream ones. The cafe has some excellent cakes and caters for a wide range of food allergies and requirements.

A fantastic vet clinic, with two bird specialists on staff. Everyone is very helpful, friendly and caring, and they have a fantastic range of bird toys for sale too.

This review is for Soulmama, St Kilda VIC

A different concept in eating out. You order the size bowl you want (3, 4 or 5 choices), then go to the staffed buffet and choose from the ever-changing menu. The options depend on what is in season, so it is a different experience each time. It can be a bit noisy if the place is busy, but there are fantastic views over the bay.

Approximate cost: $17
