People are very friendly and very focused on the animals.

Clean workspace and use good products.

This is a good cafe but you might not want to go there for the coffee or food. Selection is not huge but its tasty.
I go there mainly to be able to drink my coffee in peace without kids hanging of my lap! they have a great playarea for younger children.
Atmosphere was very casual and staff were friendly.
Also got a nice little gift shop corner.

Approximate cost: $10-15

This review is for Sultans, Boondall QLD

We tried this restaurant despite mixed reviews online.
We were not disappointed!
Great night out with delicious turkisch food. The fact that lots of Turkish people frequented the place should speak for the authenticity of the food. My husband and I shared the mixed dip platter which was huge and we could barely get through the main (mixed grill platter) which we shared as well. The bread was homemade and superfresh!
Friday and Saturday they have a Belly dancer come and perform and she was good. Nice bit of entertainment!
We definitely will go back there, hopefully with a bigger crowd!

Went there for lunch and thought the prices were really good. Great value - had an average size cooked breakfast for $11.50 which was delicious and filling.
They got some good specials on and a good variety for a cafe.
Coffee was the way I like it so would definitely go back there.

Approximate cost: $11.50

This review is for Bounce & Play, Chermside QLD

What a find! greaat place to have a coffee and cake - thought the pricing was ok - not too expensive.
fantastic place to go to after a long shopping trip with the kids.
Or you get to chat to a friend while the kids are occupied on the climbing and bouncing equipment.
PLace was tidy and suitable for 0-8 year old I would say.
they also had some Easter colourings and crafts at a special table for the kids.
I will be back!

This review is for The Vietnamese, Fortitude Valley QLD

We were taken there by friends - what a find!
Yummy food with very fresh ingredients. Authentic cuisine!
We ordered way too much as some of the entrees (like make your own spring rolls!YUM!) could serve as a main! very good value.
We payed about $80 for 4 people but without drinks. It's BYO.
We'll definitely come back- already know what I want to eat!
A must if you are in Brisbane!!!

Approximate cost: $12-22

This review is for Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, Fig Tree Pocket QLD

verified email - 29 Mar 2012

We had a fantastic time there (once all the japanese tourists had disappeared!). It's a little pricey but if you live in Brisbane then the yearly ticket is well worth it and you have your money recoobed in 2 visits! With this ticket you also get discounts on animal food and cafe food.
Best thing was to feed the kangaroos - they are very tame. next time will concentrate more on the koalas!
Staff were very friendly and explained heaps when we asked them stuff.

Approximate cost: $34p. adult

This review is for Cold Rock Ice Creamery Aspley, Aspley QLD

verified email - 29 Mar 2012

I love there ice - creams and you can create a new combination everytime. No boredom!
Great to get some before a movie - you are allowed to take them upstairs!
Most of the time the quality has been great but recently just before our movie started I found some tiny pieces of plastic maybe from a wrapper - should have complained but didn't want to miss the movie. I'm sure they would have dealt with it professionally!

Approximate cost: $AU$ 5 plus
