Very cheap and the best service! Such yummy stuff. All you would expect from a bakery + they have a few items that they are really good at. Their do some really yummy croissants and if you can handle the cream a good Bea sting.
Very cheap too.

This review is for Simply Hair, Emu Plains NSW

The best hair cut i have ever had! They are always happy to carefully listen to what you want and add helpful suggestions based on my hair type. Or i have been super adventurous and told the girls they can do whatever they like and have always ended up with a beautiful hairstyle that really suited me.

I have been going to this hairdressers for about 8yrs and know the old owner who hand picked and trained the girls now working there and then sold them the business. So i know they are passionate about hair and giving the best service. Also now live outside the area and still have not found a hairdressers that are as good or as cheap.

Allan is the owner and main butcher of this little shop.
Has a great range of free range meats including rabbit (he personally knows the guy who has the rabbit farm).

Have walked in many times not knowing what i wanted for dinner and have been offered very helpful suggestions. Also has an uncanny ability to estimate how much (kg) you will need to feed 3, 4 , 5 + 1 kid and someone with a small appetite(me).
Top quality meats. i often stock up while I'm visiting before heading back home.

This review is for Diggies Licenced Beach Cafe, North Wollongong NSW

This is a lovely cafe and although you do pay a little extra for the location i can vouch for the fact that it is more than worth it.

Tip: if you can manage getting up around dawn it is just magic to sit with a coffee and watch the fit freaks jog past very good motivation to take a walk along to the beautiful Puckies bushland area just ac cross the creek.

Approximate cost: $5-9

This is a great little Irish Pub. It is just a little quirky with a boat hanging from the celling. Great service, one of the best beer gardens I've been in complete with an old train carriage.

Approximate cost: $12-20

This review is for The Blaxland Tavern, Blaxland NSW

Pretty average pub if you sit in the beer garden its OK. They do have some cool local and other gigs on that are great to watch here as the normally dark inclosed space becomes perfect for an intimate gig environment.

They should have a ++ for quality and service. I am an animal lover and work with animals and can tell you that the animals in this pet shop are happier than most pets. They are so happy as they get all day attention and are very healthy. There stock a good range of most animals including birds.

Most of their animals are already very well handled and tamed (this is mostly in reference to their birds).

The advice and knowledge that all of the employees possess is just tops and they are happy to spend as much time as it takes to make you feel a very confident animal carer.
