I walked into this hairdresser to just check it out. I was looking for a cut and colour. I don't get my hair done regularly so don't have a regular hairdresser. They staff member came to talk to me straight away. She was so helpful and had some great advice and suggestions. She was able to book me an appointment exactly when I needed it. When arriving for my appointment they were running perfectly on time. They were super friendly and I was seen to straight away. My hair looked even better than I thought. They were reasonably priced, prompt and friendly. I will definitely be back!
I thought I would try out this small local business. I have tried a few times, but it is shut during the afternoon. It has a nice looking menu, with enough options to suit almost everyone. The food was quite nice although a little expensive. The service was ok, unfortunately nothing special. The coffee was really nice, I will perhaps use it again for a takeaway coffee.
The kids had a good time, but spent a lot of time waiting to jump. The trampolines are set up well and are very safe. It cost about $18 per child approx, and that was for 1 hour of bouncing. It was a good way for them to expend a little energy. It is certainly a bit different, but not something I could afford to do all the time with my 5 kids. I am looking forward to trying one of the adult fitness classes here.
Approximate cost: $18p.p
This fruit and Vegetable shop is very competitive and located right next to the Woolworths at Calamvale Central. They have some GREAT specials. I was there today and got Broccoli and Bananas for $1 a kg each. They also had 500g punnets of Strawberries for $1 each.They have a good selection and are very reasonable. Quality is usually fairly good, although can be a little hit and miss. The service was ok, polite and I didn't have to wait too long to be served.
I love the idea of a drive thru coffee place! We were passing by (very early) and was pleased to see it open. My husband had a cold Frappee style drink and I had a coffee. The drinks were nice and it was a good quality coffee. Service was ok, but they were very busy (I suppose that is a good sign). It is not close to home, but I would definitely try again if I was in the area.
I have had my tax return done here for the past few years. They provide an easy, helpful tax service that was explained to me in simple terms. I got some great advice and useful tips. It was easy to get an appointment at a time to suit me and it has always been on time. Good local business.
Approximate cost: $77
I think the revamped restaurant is a huge improvement. The restaurant is clean, spacious and modern. The food was very generous and good value. The children's meals were huge and there was a good selection. There were not many vegetarian options though. The pub side is always busy on Friday and Saturday night, but I didn't go into this part. The service was average, so this would be the only issue that I might have with the place.
Lovely little local indian takeaway. The food was very tasty and authentic. My husband thought his was a little on the spicy side. The serving sizes were generous. I think the prices were a little expensive, but the food was well worth it. We got takeaway, but they have the option to eat in. Great for a treat.
I had to make a quick trip here today because I had sick children. The pharmacist was extremely helpful and helped me to find exactly what I was looking for. He even recommended things that I hadn't thought of. He was fantastic. The lady at the counter was polite enough. They had a good range of products, although had run out of a children's panadol that was on special and I was looking for, but I was otherwise happy. The prices are comparable and they have some good specials on. Convenient opening hours.
A well stocked and well laid out chemist that is reasonably priced. They often have good specials and good last minute gift ideas. The staff are friendly and helpful. It is right next to the doctors, so very convenient to get a prescription filled. It could perhaps be a little more "pram friendly" though. I first found this chemist as I visited the free baby health nurse here. A great local business.
