They do have good quality pizza, but the price is pretty high for what it is, which I am usually okay with if the product is really good. Their biggest downfall is that they don't let you change the toppings on pizza. Well they never let me when I asked on more than one occasion. This takes away the enjoyment of the experience when you have food allergies/intolerances. It is the only place that I have found will refuse to change their menu for their customers. I realise that some people go overboard with changes but I think that simple changes or at least an option to allow you to design your own pizza would be a simple way of joining all other pizza restaurants in providing a good and flexible product option for their customers. If they just did this they would be back in my top list of great pizza restaurants. So as long as you do not have allergies, intolerances, and like the combinations they present in their menu it is a good pizza restaurant.

The place to be on a friday night. A little disappointed that they changed the conditions of their $5 shopper docket meal voucher so you saved less, but still they do good food. Only ever had trouble with them achieving a difference between rare and medium rare with their fillet mignon, but their schnitzels are good. Good hotel food, good drinks, local entertainment and their security are friendly to those who behave and respectful and fair with those who don't behave.

The staff are good, the food is good, the atmosphere is the same as all the other stores but still good all the same. I also like their deals that they put in the local paper sometimes, just gives that extra incentive to choose them over somewhere else. Worth the visit

Love the program, good way to find out new products and websites that interest me. If it is of no interest I haven't lost anything and if it is of interest, only gain. Always nice to be rewarded for my time and I also like the variety of things to do that they offer, surveys, email, games, shopping etc. it keeps things interesting especially when you might have finished all the surveys and so on.

Quality seafood at a good price, what more can you ask for when you don't want to come home empty handed from a fishing trip where you caught nothing, or simply when you didn't have time to catch that big fish you dreamed about. Seriously worth a visit. Only wish they did Hot chips again.

This review is for 3 Beaches Pharmacy, Hallidays Point NSW

This is a very nice community pharmacy that has the right balance! They are friendly, professional and efficient. It is a small pharmacy which provides an invaluable service to the community and although the range is limited by size they stock quality products and brands which is something I appreciate.

I find they are very good here. Sometimes the staff you get are excellent but there are a few who aren't as good, and by this I mean that they are not as customer focused or careful, but this is something that is to be expected from a different range of people and experiences in a business. What I like though is the head pharmacist is excellent so any business with good leadership is bound to only ever progress in the right direction. I would still be quite happy to recommend them, and they have good opening hours.

This review is for Qantas, Sydney NSW

verified email - 23 Nov 2010

Mostly Qantas is an Okay airline, and to give them credit for the good, they do seem to have good service and staff work well within the strict guidelines that puts constraints on the industry (I used to live with a flight attendant so I know there is a lot more to things that go wrong and annoy us than we realise). There is one major frustration I had with Qantas when on a regional flight from Wagga to Sydney then a connection with Aeropelican to Newcastle (this was a few years ago when Qantas did not do flights to Newcastle). I was flying because I had a very important family event in Newcastle and couldn't get the day before off in order to drive. So it was important that I got to Newcastle by the afternoon. I organised my flights with generous time between flights and would have had three hours to spare in Newcastle if all went to plan, and if it didn't it would have still meant I was early. The Qantas flight was delayed because of THEIR plane having mechanical problems, so the flight left late but although it would be tight, I knew I would make my connection, except due to various reasons I can't remember what they said, the flight took longer than it was meant to, so the staff came around to check who had connecting flights so they could call the airport midflight and arrange for us to be put on the next available flight...I was very upset and angry when they refused to even contact aeropelican simply because they supposedly had a policy where they don't communicate with other airlines. I felt this was very stupid since all of this was out of my control, the first delay was their fault and I could not exactly make a phone call mid flight! I was very lucky that aeropelican were more flexible and they fitted me on the VERY LAST flight for the day and I was only a little bit late. To add to the problem, when I got to Newcastle, I found out that Qantas had lost my luggage and not passed it on to aeropelican (because although Qantas wont talk to another airline, the luggage transfer between airlines seemed to be a standard thing for them...when they aren't losing the luggage)
