So this Coffee Club I go with my Husband and two children for breakfast. We squeeze in to a table on the outskirt as this child unfriendly Cafe doesn't allow anymore than this. They were not busy - I went up to order despite that squishy weave of tables they won't offer table service???? I order from an unenthused "checkout style" teen and pay $60 - yes really - for breakfast for two and two cookies for the kids.

So the bumbly staff member who was hopefully bound for some type of training spills orange juice over the table and my husband and with no apology throws him a couple dry serviettes does not offer to refill the drink and walks away. 30 minutes later I weave back through the table to ask where the simple bacon and eggs we order are. We eat an overcooked meal and wonder why we bothered.

Approximate cost: $30

Overall Aldi is a great place to shop if you don't mind do a little work for your savings.

Mostly good experiences here I love the range of products to suit almost any home decor. I am very impressed with the level of customer service I received when there was a small problem. I also

This is the most wonderful Hairdresser on the southside of Brisbane. Val is a small business who is committed to looking after her community.
