Always very friendly and helpful. There are other convenience stores closer to home but I prefer to shop here because of the people who own/run it.

Resolved a knee problem with a fairly simple, affordable solution and no more pain, quite an incredible outcome after discomfort and pain for so long.

We stay in Jack's Cottage which has 3 bedrooms as well as sofa beds so there's heaps of room for us and the 3 kids. There are two trampolines, a pool, bikes of all sizes, a garden swing, toys, sandpit and heaps of things to see. We were taken down to see two new-born calves the last time we were there. It was relaxing for us and the kids had a ball...then fell into a deep sleep every night from all the exercise and country air. I think winter is my favourite time there but spring is wonderful too and summer is great because it's warm enough to swim.

Approximate cost: $150 per night for the whole family!

Great service, they know their stuff and they're happy to help make choices either for your own garden or for gifts. We used to get sand from them for the kids' sandpit years ago, I think they still have sand/gravel etc. Lots of gift ideas other than just plants, too. Their prices are reasonable and we've never bought a plant there that hasn't flourished (and that's no mean feat given my lack of gardening expertise!).

Prompt, professional help with preparation of the pens we had printed; they arrived in a timely manner despite the numerous public holidays we've had lately. We were pleased to be able to order them through a Sunshine Coast company rather than from elsewhere in the country. They were able to match or better prices quoted elsewhere and the pens look great.

We've been patients of Eckersley Medical Centre since it was recommended to us in 1999 after we'd moved to the Coast. The staff are great, they make a real effort to make you feel welcome and Dr Beall is excellent - he's great with the kids, they look forward to the visits and trust him completely. He's also been particularly supporting during health issues that needed sensitivity and compassion, we're really grateful to him for the level of care and his knowledge in these situations.

Great selection of really different gifts in most price ranges. They even have gifts for men. My favourite gifts are the chinese checkers sets and the Van Gogh coffee mug sets although it's really hard to pick favourites from such a wonderful array of items. Handy location and they even have Books of Buderim at the rear of the shop so don't forget to walk through to the back.

They say they have the happiest chefs but I think they have the happiest customers as well. Great tasting food and it's all prepared fresh as you order it. They're quick, efficient and very friendly. Whether you're dining in or getting takeaway the food is wonderful.

Approximate cost: $15

Great, friendly service, reliable (they actually turned up on time!), reasonable prices, quality work. They provided feedback and guidance re placement of light fittings to maximise the effect which was superb as we didn't have a clue. It was great to experience good service, great workmanship and a friendly face as well.

Approximate cost: $300

Food was pretty good, serving sizes were filling, decor is a little worn out but parking is great in the evening as the remainder of the shopping complex is closed so it's quite handy. They handle large groups pretty well however seating is outside for anything more than a small group.
