I probably wouldn't recommend this business to anyone i know because of the customer service and the quality of the things you buy.
I from time to time go in here to see what kind of bargains on the second hand video games and DVD's i can get and sometimes you find something really great, but most of the times it's not so great.
The people that work here seem incompetent and need more training in what they're buying and selling, the staff here just look you up and down, you have to walk up to them and ask them to help you. You can almost hear the regret in their voice when they say "Sure, what can i help you with?"

This leagues club is pretty average, heaps and heaps of food to choose from though! They have an area that has yum cha on Sundays and it is just lovely.
Though go there on a busy night i.e. Friday or Saturday and expect to wait up to an hour for your meal.
The place is quite modern with the T.V.'s everywhere and the smoking area having a lovely view.
Bar service is quick, they have a happy hour on cocktails that goes for 2 hours and cocktails are $5!
Bargain.

I feel like this shop has been open for years, Maybe because it has, Since i first moved here in 2004 it has been open. (How many years before that? i do not know.)
This is a lovely mom and pop kinda store, family owned and run.
They sell and repair bikes, and they're also open 7 days a week!
They will take time to listen to what you have to say and will take time to serve you.
They're so affordable aswell which is awesome!
It's just a real throwback feel when you walk into this store because you don't see many small bike stores like this anymore.
I hope they continue to stay open for a long time, it'd be a shame to see this place go!

This store has so many wonderful things in it, from clothing to ear tunnels. All quite different and alternative. Too bad the customer service has gone down hill. The girls are the register don't even greet you anymore, they're too busy looking down at their phone or are in the back.
As for the price range, a dress can set you back between $90-$150. Extremely pricey, i advise just to buy the dresses you like on eBay because it will turn out cheaper.
Other than that the tunnels they sell here the quality of them are amazing! And they can be quite affordable too! About $30 for a pair.
The store itself is set out quite well, there is room to look around, there's a change room to try on clothes.
You'll defiantly find a cute/alternative gift in here for the alternative person in your life!

I don't have any complaints about stir crazy!
This store is amazing! You don't have to wait that long here, probably max of 5 minutes i've ever waited; It feels like each box can feed almost two people! You'll always have left overs. The servings are massive for what you'e paying for! At lunch time you get a free water! Which is great considering summer is coming up!
They have about 5 or 6 cooking styles here, i usually get the Aussie style and it is amazing! The chicken here is something you can trust, no ugly surprises here when biting into the chicken!
Overall good place to eat, trustworthy, clean and wonderful customer service!

Never get your phone fixed from these guys! I made a big mistake getting my iPhone 6 screen fixed here (It was $160) and then 3 days later i was away on holidays for 5 weeks and within the first week of my holiday the screen started coming off in one whole piece! They obviously didn't glue it on properly because between getting it fixed and to that point i hadn't dropped my phone and i could see the glue melting.
I sent them an email while i was on holidays just to let them know what had happened and i didn't receive a reply back - So i went into the store as soon as i got back, they offered to replace my screen (because they refused to give me a refund?!) i felt helpless so i let them redo my screen, only for it to happen again! The screen itself is not a proper iphone 6 screen despite the technician telling me it was.
Also when i questioned them about why they didn't reply to my email they said "Oh that has nothing to do with us, we don't reply to the emails."
Their customer service was terrible, the materials they use are weak and not reliable, i will defiantly not be coming back here again and i advise everyone to not go here either.

This place is so lovely, the only thing i would have to say i have an issue with is that $13.90 is the cheapest you'll pay for a main meal, the food is great don't get me wrong, just $13.90 is abit much for what it is.
The food was great though, the customer service is marvelous! Happy people working here, naan bread was authentic and fairly cheap at $2 a piece! So that's pretty positive!
Their hours are abit weird though, i defiantly recommend delivery for dinner rather than going in because their opening/closing times can be abit unreliable.

Overall i would recommend this restaurant to my friends and family, and will continue to order from them.

My mum begged me to go with her last Sunday afternoon to try Harrys Famous pies, My mum had a Harrys Tiger and loved it! And i had a traditional meat pie and sauce.
This pie was like, made to perfection. No gross meat, the pastry was light and a little bit crunchy, this meat pie was like the most perfect meat pie i have ever eaten.
The service was quick despite the line being long when we went.
The server was friendly, had a great smile!

This is a great place to get a decent pie if you're looking for one, they also sell other things like pasties, sausage rolls and desserts like custard tarts! Haven't tried them yet but next time i will!

Pretty upset with this business, well one particular driver [redacted name].
The lessons themselves were tedious and i felt like we never moved on from how to turn a corner, how to stop at lights, or how to change a lane despite feeling like i was way past this as i have been with other driving instructors.
I just called to make another appointment as i've been away to the U.S. for a month and he refused to let me book with him again as apparently he has a 2 strike rule, saying that i have cancelled on him twice before.
This being true, but both times being issues beyond my control and he knew that, (also despite never telling me this the last time i called him and cancelled there was no mention that i wasn't able to book again.) I called HOURS well within advance yet he still felt the need to do this, i guess he felt like i was wasting his time? though he felt that getting out of the car and talking for 15+ minutes of my lesson was not wasting my time.
He spends majority of my time talking, and it was switch from important things that i needed to know like road rules, to unimportant things like family life, what he did on the weekend, bad drivers he's previously had etc.
He also will not make up for the time that he makes you spend on the side of the road while he is on the phone.

Will never recommend this service.

This review is for Thai Cuisine , Jordan Springs NSW

Everything about this store is perfect.
There is a man that works at this shop (i've yet to catch his name) and he is so welcoming, happy, and always has a smile on his face. Just a generally bubbly guy.
The way the food is packed for delivery is a no spill solution, he completely gladwraps containers so things like cashew chicken that can be quite saucy won't spill out.
The FOOD itself was spectacular, and extremely cheap. (It's also free delivery within 5 KM of the shop.) Me and my friend ordered 2 main meals, a side dish, 2 cans of coke and a boiled rice for just under $35!
This has got to be the cheapest place i have ever purchased Thai food, every cent was worth it.
10/10, this shop is clean, the food is tasty, and the service is amazing.
This is my new favourite place to purchase Thai.
Will come back again and again.

Approximate cost: $10
