Came down to Cold Rock after school on a Friday afternoon...it's pretty busy full of kids at this time by the way. I liked how I wanted to try a new flavour so they gave me a little sample on a spoon first. Glad they did too because donut flavoured ice cream sounded better than it tasted. I stayed with my favourite: macadamia with maltesers and hot fudge. The kids enjoyed bubble gum with gummi bears and mint with crunchie. The service was friendly, the store was clean and it was comfortable eating outside on the tables. The only flaw really is the cost of their product....not the best value in my opinion so we go there rarely because of this.
Saw the reviews on Womo and decided to give them a call since I was about to renew my husband's car insurance anyway. After a lengthy and thorough phone conversation with a pleasant staff member they offered me a premium that was considerably more than I was currently paying elsewhere but after "speaking with the manager" they competitively beat my current premium so I swapped to Youi on the spot. A $50 saving is nothing to be sneezed at!
Went to a children's birthday party here and thought it was a litte bit disorganised, loud and chaotic for supervising parents BUT the kids had a great time! The reserved tables for the party are close to the lanes and I thought having a separate party room would keep all the children contained a bit better. They have plenty of distractions in the form of arcade games etc so not all the focus is on the actual bowling. A host with a loud voice or megaphone is in order so that everyone knows what's going on. The kids were all fed (I think it's around $20/head) and they LOVED going bowling and sharing the lanes but I think the trick is to keep the group to a smallish number so everyone finishes their game at the same time and there are no delays.
Approximate cost: $20.00
When you need an experienced professional in the field who deals with kids on a daily basis, who is calm, supportive and genuinely cares to see an improved outcome then taking your child to The Kid's Counsellor is an important first step towards resolving any issues you may have with your child's psychological or developmental management. For a fee your child may also be observed in their natural school environment too so a better understanding can be obtained of their behavioural tendencies and social skills. It's good to get an objective point of view, advice and referral if needed.
Rented a caged ute to take a few loads to the dump this week and it couldn't have been easier! Just called the 1800 number, told them which location I'd like to pick up from and...job done. Paid $81 for 9 hours use which also entitles you to 100km free. (cheaper if you want just a tray back ute, not a caged one) We got a fairly new Toyota Hilux, a joy to drive. Will definitely use them again in future.

I'd been wanting to go to this place for awhile now because I heard it had earthy homemade yet gourmet style food and it didn't disappoint. The coffee was really good and the poached eggs with cornbread toast and crispy bacon was fantastic! If you like an eclectic ambience with a cosy feel then this place is for you though it's breezy and quieter to sit out the back. Very friendly owners with helpful suggestions and prompt service.

Had the exterior of our wooden 2 storey renovated Queenslander home professionally washed by Reclean and thought they did an excellent job. Cobwebs, bat poop etc all gone. The house looks fresh again!
The job took about 4 hours by one friendly guy with appropriate tools. Quotes were comparable to other companies and these guys just seemed so much more professional right from the get-go.
The communication with the company was very efficient and courteous both before and after the job was done. Can't say anything negative really. I'd recommend them and get them to come back again next time.
If you prrefer to buy Australian made products by Australian owned companies then this is the store for you! They stock a huge range of Aussie groceries, baking items, cleaning products, confectionary, toiletries, laundry products and more, even Ugg boots! I went there specifically to get some OzKleen products like Mint Kleen multipurpose benchtop spray, Shower Power and Mop Power. The staff were super friendly and took my purchases out to the car too. Be sure to check out the clearance shelf for near expiry items. Highly recommended!
Took my sister here this afternoon for a birthday treat. Loved the bright yellow decor and the crooning music playing in the background. I had a deluxe chocolate obsession thickshake (made with Connoisseur ice cream) which was just heavenly and delicious but a little pricey at $7.90. We shared a family size cone of wicked thick cut chips which were seasoned beautifully and came with a small tub each of tomato sauce and aioli ($9.90). All day breakfast is served here ranging in price from $9 right up to $18.90 for the Big Breakfast. Great range of shakes, burgers, sandwiches and a pretty display of cupcakes and muffins on offer too. Parking available under the building. If it weren't for the prices, I'd love to visit more often.

I am so glad I took my 5 year old son here for his first blood test. Karen was so good with him knowing he'd be scared but she took his blood carefully and without any problem at all. Free sticker for my brave boy! There was no waiting either, walked straight in. I suggested they put QML on the Stafford City Store Directory Map too because I couldn't find it - it's located within the doctor's surgery waiting area next to the chemist.
