What a delightful surprise! When invited to meet a friend here I had not known of its existence as it only recently joined the many eateries along Gympie Terrace but immediately I loved the 'Old English' atmospere with white tablleclothes, fine china tea cups, plates and teapots. It was very busy but the waitresses served us promptly and all the others enjoying high tea or lunches from the extensive menu. We were not hurried to leave after we had enjoyed our delicious baguettes and pots of tea. Definitely a great addition to Noosa's cafe scene and the prices were also a pleasant surprise. I would recommend booking to avoid disappointment.

This is the regular Wednesday light lunch spot for our group. The service is friendly, quick and snacks such as sandwiches, scones, slices are all fresh and delicious. My particular favourite is the cheese platter, enough for two. However you can also enjoy fish and chips from the neighbouring shop with wine or a coffee from the Wine Bar. It is also the booking spot for the Noosa Ferry. Friday nights and some Saturdays also include live music. Our latest visit this week, lived up to all our expectations. See you there next week!

Having bought a voucher online from GrabOne I went to Breeze and received outstanding treatment as if I was a cherished regular. Libby spent time ensuring I got the colour and cut exactly as I wanted. I also received discount vouchers for other visits. The salon also offers massages, facials and nail treatments. So many people commented on my 'new' look which certainly made me feel even greater after such excellent treatment in the salon.

This small, but very friendly cafe was a great hit with our two young friends today as well as the three adults. Nothing was too much trouble and the orange Spiders were a great hit. Us 'oldies' loved the salad and sandwiches. It was also great to see a load of children enjoying craft work at a nearby table. The quality and prices of the food will make this a definite must for future visits.

Sue is the owner operator and currently training my third grandson after successfullly seeing the first two gain their drivers\'s licences. She has a special rapport with youngsters who might be anxious or lack confidence. Her knowledge of the Sunshine Coast, her sense of humour and patience makes her the ideal instructor. Our family really appreciate her special touch.

This review is for Noosa Arts Theatre, Noosaville QLD

What a wonderful sight to see so many children cheering, shouting and laughing at the recent Noosa Arts Theatre's pantomime "Trouble in Nursery Rhyme Land". The huge, colourful cast came out after each performance to meet the children and for photographs. All tickets were one price $12 for this show and no wonder most performances were totally sold out. Noosa Arts Theatre produces almost end to end productions catering for all theatre tastes but bookings are essential to avoid disappointment.

Brian has been the vet and loyal friend of all our animals from horses, cows, goats, pigs, donkeys to our beloved dogs and cats for around 30 years. He and his staff are so understanding and take such wonderful care of the animals and us! We particularly appreciate their concern and sympathy when we lose one of our 'babies' even sending personally written condolences. Even emergency call - outs on weekends or nights are responded to with Brian's concern and understanding

This review is for Grill'd, Carindale QLD

Teenage grandsons chose venue as one of their favourites and we had a thoroughly delicious lunch from the extensive menu of healthy burgers, paninis and salads. They even made a special burger for Mr Fussy with just the things he wanted in it! The chips were absolutely wonderful, double fried and herbed! An extra plus is that it is in the Entertainment Book so buy one main, get one free! Will definitely go back now I have tried it out. Only minus for me was not being able to have a cup of tea with it.

This review is for The Grand View Hotel, Cleveland QLD

Our first time there and it was a huge surprise. Sunday lunchtime and the Emu Point Garden was packed with large family groups and romantic couples. It being so busy, we had to wait to be seated and then eventually call for someone to bring us menus. We also had to find our own cutlery as the staff seemed run off their feet. The food was some of the best we'd ever eaten in a hotel 'beer garden', especially considering the number of patrons. Just wish the meals had come out together as two of our group had finished eating by the time we other two got ours. Then another waitress appeared with our order again! My steak topped with prawns and calamari was huge and so delicious but I could not have managed two! Still that was no real problem. The children's play area is within view but thankfully far enough away for the screams and squeals not to be heard above the loud buzz of so many diners. We felt sorry for the girl singer who also struggled to be heard. There is an upstairs restaurant also which would be ideal for functions.The Hotel is the oldest in Queensland and well worth the long trip we made. Another plus is that it is in the Entertainment Book so you get one main course with the purchase of another!

This review is for Eumundi Markets, Eumundi QLD

As a local who even attended the very first market here in March 1979, I still love to visit almost every week and it's a must for my visitors. It is the best regional market in Australia and yes, I have been to all the famous ones, including Salamanca, Port Douglas and Darwin.Nowhere compares for food, clothing, jewellery, gifts, novelties, entertainment and friendly locals.It should be in every guide book and on every tourists bucket list.
