I think this place is great. They offer such a wide range of little bits and bobs. You know when you are buying a present for someone and it just needs that little something more, well this is just the place to find it. I go there nearly every time I have a friend's birthday coming up

I got some flowers to send to my grandma for a funeral we were not invited to and they were beautiful. The arrangement was so colorful and it looked great. They were a bit pricey but I was happy to pay the price I did

This review is for Leaf Boutique, Aspley QLD

I go here occasionally if I see something in the window as I walk by. It's that kind of shop you don't purposely go in you might just see something. The staff are really friendly and always willing to lend a hand. Overall pretty good

This review is for Maria's Seafood, Aspley QLD

I go to Maria's alot. I've tried out other fish and chip places but none compare to Maria's. They have the best potato scallops in Brisbane I think. They are cheap as well, which is good because you want to go back for more every time. If you go when they are busy you can wait for a long time so I would suggest going and getting lunch or dinner before you normally would so as to prevent being caught in a rush hour.

Approximate cost: $7.50

The cheesecakes here are amazing. They are a little overpriced but they taste really great. Most of the staff are nice enough. Some would rather be anywhere but there but hey you get some good and some bad. Overall Pretty good

This review is for A Head Of Time, Aspley QLD

They are just a little shop but they have quite close to the best value around. I love this place. So they may not have a big corporate name but they are still an excellent place to get you hair cut or colored really anything a big shop would offer. You don't feel like your trapped in having to get a 'now' haircut it sort of feels homey to me. The lovely team of ladies that work there are nice and ask you as your going "is this short enough" or "is this how you want it" it's reassuring to get some help sometimes and they offer their personal opinions as well. Great place

This review is for Northside Orthodontics, Chermside QLD

I loved going here when I was younger. I used to have braces, and out dentist recommended this place and I'm so glad he did. The staff are amazingly nice and you never have to wait long at all. I was quite scared about the whole thing when I first started I think I was in grade 7, so yeah it was a daunting experience. Colin Nelson if you are reading this thank you so much for everything you did for me, you were so supportive and an overall great guy. Thanks to all the staff for making my journey to straight teeth a good one.

This review is for SpiceMart, Slacks Creek QLD

This is a good place to look around if a recipe you want to use has some ingredient you've never heard of before in it. So fun to look at all the weird stuff that fills the isles in Spice Mart, you sort of look at some of the stuff and either think gross or what is that. The isles are quite small which always annoys me. The people who work there are friendly but sometimes a little hard to understand

This review is for Scrumpy's Chinese Restaurant, Aspley QLD

verified email - 08 Jun 2012

I really like going here with a few friends. So it's not the best Chinese food I've had but it's great value for money. All you can eat lunch and dinner is awesome. Sometimes I think it's weird though when I think about it and there is all this Chinese food and then a soft serve machine, little strange but anyway. The staff are friendly enough, though when the chiefs come out to put the new food in the buffet they look a little angry, sort of like they don;t want to be there. Overall quite good though

This review is for Hog's Breath Cafe, Aspley QLD

Generally when I go i share this seafood tower thing with my brother and it is so good. Its got grilled salmon on the top, then i think some prawns or something like that, just finger food sort of seafood things, then curly fries and then salad. I enjoy it every time and the waitresses are all so nice. They don't just brush you off like you're just another customer they treat you like you are the only person in the restaurant. Food is a bit pricey but that's what you get for quality

Approximate cost: $70.00
