This hair salon it beautifully decorated and looks amazing. They have a facebook page which looks great and have lots of pictures of trendy hairstyles which I has aspired to have! So I thought I'd try them out, even though I knew they'd be very expensive. I booked an appointment, got there on time and was left waiting 15 mins as they were busy. Frustrating as I had a lot to do that day. I had my hair styled just to try them out - no wash, just curls put in my straight hair. I was asked if I'd rather ghd curls or with curling tongs and I didn't really know so chose tongs - neither were recommended for my hair type or any sort of advise was given. It took about 2 hours for the lady to curl my hair. To give her credit she tried really hard to be precise and went to a lot of effort to get it right. I told her that curls very rarely held in my hair very long so she spent extra time on it. It looked good immediately after it had been done but unfortunately the curls fell soon after and I ended up recurling bits myself later. It cost $65 so I had expected more. I wouldn't go back for other treatments as a colour is 200+ so way to much for what you get.

I enjoyed the crepes here. They were tasty and had plenty of filling. The coffee on the other hand was not so good - it was vittoria coffee which I'm not a fan of though. Service was great and they were very friendly. I would go back for a casual breakfast or lunch if the coffee was better.

Approximate cost: $15

The restaurant itself is a bit shabby and could do with a renovation or at least redecoration. But the quality of the food and the price makes up for this and it makes for a great midweek restaurant. It is also BYO. They offer lunch specials - around $10 I think which is great value. Also good for takeaway and the most reasonable priced Thai restaurant in Thirroul

Great Thai restaurant to eat in as the interior is nicely decorated and inkeeping with the style of the theatre. The food is a bit more expensive than the other Thai restaurants in the area but is good quality. They also do $10 lunch specials. The choo chee barramundi was amazing - perfectly cooked and crispy on the outside with a beautiful curry sauce. Every dish I've tried has been perfectly cooked and full of flavour.

This is a great restaurant thats very popular with the locals. They do 2 and 3 course specials during the week which makes the price fairly reasonable. The staff are very friendly and do their best to ensure happy diners. The food is beautifully presented and tastes amazing. Good wine list also. Look out for the specials on the board.

This cafe does amazing coffee - one of the best in the area. Good breakfast and lunch also. Service is good and staff are always friendly. Expect a bit of a wait at the weekends for coffees. Nice outdoor area at the back and the front with comfy couches to relax over lunch. Highly recommended.

The tan was great from here but can only afford to have it done here on special occasions at $55 a pop. The colour was good and the overall result very natural. I had a facial here also which I found very relaxing

Had heard about this as having great pizzas. When we tried them we found them average and they didn't live up to expectations. We were there on a saturday for dinner and were very surprised at how many children were there! Good for families, not for couples. Sevice as ok.

Good pizzas but not great for eating in. More suited to take away. Casual dining may be suited for families but for a couple it was a bit to casual. Good for midweek meal and the prices were reasonable

The food was nice but not as good as expected for indian food at that price. The real draw of the restaurant is the view which is amazing. Desert was good. We waiter was a bit pushy, but backed off after a bit. There is no atmosphere there and not somewhere we felt inclined to stay around after we finished our meal. Drinks were expensive also.
