This restaurant is quite small and only seats a few but the food is so good you will be happy to do takeaway. We dined in on this occasion and there were 7 of us in total. the staff are fairly attentive but it is hard to walk in between the tables especially with hot plates. drinks are normal restaurant prices. i think any shortcomings which there are not many other than tiny picky things the food more than makes up for it as it is fresh and taste just how it says it will and should. the duck is extra special!

My husband and I called in to grab a quick lunch a few days ago and found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. We ordered our lunch and it arrived really quickly and was reasonably priced. The salad was fresh and the vegies I received with my lamb cutlets were nice and firm not sloppy. The meals are really so you will not leave hungry at all.

Approximate cost: $23.00

When looking to spring clean my home and continually running out of time I contacted Lifestyle Cleaning Services and they had someone at my home the following day to do all the jobs i needed doing. The neatly dressed staff member arrived on time with everything she needed to clean my home from top to bottom including the environmentally friendly cleaning products. After a quick walk through the home to confirm what I needed done the lady jumped right in and the job was amazing. Everything was sparkling! The window cleaner had arrived and was set up ready to clean inside and outside, screens and tracks. Again the job was without fuss or bother and the glass gleamed. I would definitely recommend this company to the fussiest of people as you will not be disappointed! There was nothing I could fault on this job either in the home or my beautiful windows.

Best trip to the hairdressers in a long time. First time I have been here and I had a cut, colour and straightening. I was in a bit of a hurry but I was so impressed with the outcome.
Service was excellent, great knowledge on colours etc.
Not the cheapest but well and truly worth it.

Have I found the new Sunday haunt or what?
On a nice Sunday drive out to the Hunter Valley we called in here for lunch seeing they had a kids play area set up and a huge jumping castle. The meals we ordered for the children were huge and they also got an old style choc top ice cream included all for $10.50 per child with heaps of choices too. Hubby and I had three entrees we shared between us.....kilpatrick oysters, duck spring rolls and a to die for garlic prawn pate. Best food in a long time. Hardly seen the children after they had eaten...too busy playing! A wonderful young man set up his speakers and guitar and played a lot of covers that were really chill out songs that really topped off a great Sunday afternoon. We sat for hours eating and enjoying a wine. Service good, you order your meal and get a beeper that goes off when they are ready for you to collect so it was hard to rate service. Everyone in the bar etc was friendly enough though.

We took our four young children last week to try out this Restaurant that I have heard so much about. I went in really expecting it to be really average and was pleasantly surprised as it was quite good especially considering it is a buffet which I normally avoid at all costs. The kids had an absolute ball picking and choosing what they would have on their plate this round. The dessert bar was a hit as well. I have only given a three star rate for service as our plates were cleared so fast so they deserved a five but the lady and gentleman at the front counter couldn't organise a cat fight and there wasn't too many people standing there plus we had booked in advance.
A huge variety of food to suit everyone, no matter how fussy you are there will be something you will eat.

Do not ever bother staying at this place! Right from the beginning this was a mess. We rang and booked at 7.30pm for the following night and when I rang to co firm the following morning what time check in was they said we have no reservation for you tonight, you were supposed to be here lastnight. First problem! So after explaining they had obviously booked it wrong we managed to get a new booking for the right night. When we arrived we checked in and got the keys and head to the room which had not been cleaned or made up from the guests prior to us...nice! They found another room for us and then the staff kept wandering in with their keys bringing towels then face washers then hand towels all without knocking once! Head down to the bar and you are greeted by the rudest barman ever and pay $25 for two drinks at happy hour so hate to see it at cranky hour! The rooms are very old and don't bother getting the breakfast included as it is filthy so save your money and go to McDonalds! The TV didn't work either so as long as you can lip read you are good. This was a suite so I can only imagine how bad the lesser rooms were. I was very surprised how bad this really was as Novotel is part of the Accor group which I thought was always quite good.

Approximate cost: $260 per night

We went to the bistro today for a Sunday lunch outing with the kids and how disappointing! It started well when we walked in and it was quite busy....sometimes a good sign but ended very quickly once meals arrived. The children ordered from the kids menu and for $8.50 they got a sml drink, meal and ice-cream. All four children ordered a different thing and they all came out squashed in a bowl. My son ordered lasagna and chips and it was slop piled on top of his chips so he hardly touched it saying it was yuck, my younger son ordered pizza and chips and wouldn't eat the pizza......what 3GS old turns down pizza so must have been bad! My daughters ordered calamari which she loves but said it was horrible and my younger daughter ordered nuggets which I think was the only edible thing out of all four. $8.50 for chips is a little steep seeing that's all they could eat. We never bothered with the ice-cream through pure fear of more disappointment. I ordered tempura prawns which was really prawns covered in batter...blah!! The meals came out quite quickly so I suppose that was the only thing the place had going for it. Such a shame as it looks the part and I was really hoping to enjoy a nice lunch out so maybe we just caught them on a REAL bad day.

Approximate cost: $18-25

I am relatively new to this service but Craig is the loveliest man that has the very best fruit and vegies. Completely home delivered each week, the truck pulls up and when Craig opens up the sides you see the freshest produce, honey and ginger cordial. He is more than happy to cut you something to try before you buy but you will not be disappointed. I have bought watermelon and it has still been good a week later not like the filth you get from the supermarkets that is yuck two days later. If there is something you are chasing they will source it for you so don't be afraid to ask. Definitely give him a call and see if he delivers in your area.

I travel to go into this store, it is well priced and has a really good range. Take your pet in for a look as they have snacks, toys, leads and beds to suit all breeds. I really like their rewards program as you actually get somewhere not like the other major pet stores. They offer products for most pets eg snakes, fish, rabbits etc as well as the usual cat, dog and birds. The staff always offer to carry your things out to the car if they are heavy or awkward which is a lovely helping hand sometimes. I tend to mostly buy my bedding for rabbits and chickens and the really large bags of dog food to feed my crazy lot!
