Best tasting ice cream ever. Their base flavours alone have a HUGE variety, and then when you factor in lollies, it would take you a lifetime to try all the different combinations possible. And choosing and watching them get mashed together is half the fun of it. I love this place, even though the prices are a bit high, it's still worth it for the taste.

Approximate cost: $7

Great chips. Seriously it's getting harder and harder to find a good chip out there now and this place has them. Crisp, cooked through, just the right amount of salt and I don't know what they have in their fryers but the chips taste so good. These guys are also open quite late and have really nice gravy too.

I had THE best tasting drink ever there. I cannot remember the name for the life of me but it was the best drink I've ever had. It was nearly bright pink in colour if you've ever had it before, I will be going back again this week for sure and I'll update this to let you all know, you have to try it. My friend also had a very nice tea there but we only had drinks, I'm going back for a meal this week.

I locked my keys inside my house and needed to have my lock picked after hours. It wasn't very late but since it was after hours it cost $155 just to have him come over, take less than 5 minutes to pick my lock, take my cash and drive off. I can understand that after hours it might be annoying to get off the couch and drive 10 minutes but really, $155 for 20 minutes work is a bit rich.

Approximate cost: $155

I was renting through Ballarat Real Estate for 4 years and I reported and re-reported problems over and over and they never sent anyone to fix them. Some of the things were fixed, however after a year and half of telling them that the fan in the bathroom and the ONLY heater in the house weren't working, they still haven't been fixed. If they can leave a tenant without heating throughout winter, I don't see how they could really be nice to anyone. I feel sorry for anyone that gets stuck in a house being leased by this company.

I've gone back to Vic 3 times with 3 different cars and the last one I brought to him was my girlfriend's. The first time I went to him I needed a roadworthy on my first car. He gave me so much information and told me so much about my car and how to easily, and cheaply, fix it up to roadworthy condition and he only charged the normal roadworthy rate. Next time I came to see him after fixing everything, because I was only there for 20 minutes while he checked back over the original issues, he only charged me 5 bucks and sent me on my way. He is VERY knowledgeable with a wide variety of cars (I've taken a holden, toyota and mazda to him) and he charges fair prices and it an absolute pleasure to deal with.

This is one of only 2 places in Ballarat I've ever had my hair cut over 6 years here and every time it's been great. I never really ask for anything special and I'm a guy so I guess it's not hard to get right but yesterday my girlfriend had her hair cut there and they did an amazing job. Also, the main reason I started going was because I never have to wait more than about 10 minutes from walking in off the street to having my hair cut with no booking.
