The clothes here are cheap and pretty cute. You get what you pay for quality-wise. These clothes will fall apart by 10 washes. But for kids play clothes does it matter? I like to buy clothes which young children can go wild in and it doesnt matter if they wreck them.

My problem is not with this particular store so much as with the head office "policy" - OK, they have the typical "no refund, no exchange" policy for sale items (fine) , BUT I bought a tracksuit which my daughter didnt like the colour of. So I returned next day with purchase receipt and tags still on... and asked to swap the exact same tracksuit just for a different colour. They refused me!! Reason given is they are so scared of "Head Office rules" and apparently they think they could put their jobs in jeopardy if they do a colour exchange on an otherwise identical, re-saleable item. Not happy Jan.

So beware before purchase, they are weirdly rigid around their "policies".

Although I only gave 3 stars for service, I should explain: I've always experienced very good customer service here, just be aware that the students take longer than at a normal salon. But they give great cuts at a fraction of the price other quality salons, so if you have the time to wait while they work at a slower pace, it is completely worth it. I have never had a bad cut here. It's an excellent place to go and the instructors and students should all feel very proud of their professionalism and great energy.

This business is SO handy time-wise plus if it helps some of our farmers a bit more, that's a bonus. I don't especially want to buy supermarket imported food from other side of the world if we can and do grown the same stuff right here.. seems more logical. With Aussie Farmers you know what you are getting.

Innovative company with a great energy and top customer service. Love it.

This place is very cool. Wholesaler of cakes and chocolate direct to the public. I burnt a cake and had to buy one last minute, I turned up there all stressed and they gave me a great huge slab at a very good inexpensive price, and organised it so fast. I had the option to decorate it myself. Their last minute flexibility really saved my butt. As it turned out the cake was good quality too. Big busy shop, probably 80+ customers when we visited. We had a nice coffee there. Highly recommend this place.

Can order online. Must pick up yourself, no deliveries.

Good place to buy casual clothes for around the home, underwear, kids stuff etc. I really like this store it's easy to find things and would shop here first for just good unpretentious clothing at a good price. Also they have some OK fashion / work clothes although I prefer to go elsewhere for a bigger range.

Been here twice and it's now my favourite fish and chip shop in Melbourne. Staff were so nice to my family and the food is perfect. And I think it's actually quite healthy, I got grilled fish with brown rice and greek salad and chips and it tasted amazing. Busy both times but the staff seemed to have it under control, wait time was OK. We did end up spending more than we normally do for fish and chips night - but this is a case of you get what you pay for.
