The Bli Bli Bulletin is fantastic! It has grown from strength to strength and offers such a lot of local information! Every area needs a local newspaper like this! Mac and Julie do a terrific job!

We have had fantastic prawns and fish from JD's Quality Seafoods. Their fish is always very fresh, and for Christmas, you can put in an order and pick it up Christmas Eve.

Sunshine Castle has been having a grand make-over in the last couple of years, so there is so much going on around there now. A lovely spot for a cup of coffee and a piece of strudel, or some terrific German knackwurst if you want something more filling. now there are markets on the first Saturday of the month, too!

Our poor pink and grey galah was in terrible pain and we didn't know what was wrong. Turned out "he" was a "she" and she was egg-bound! Needed to have the egg removed and a course of antibiotics and in 2 days she was as good as new!

This carpet cleaning service deserves a medal! They came and cleaned a very badly stained carpet, which a well-meaning friend had attempted to clean (but had made worse). They worked for ages to get as much stain out as they could. I would recommend them to anyone needing carpets cleaned.

This is a popular place in Bli Bli. We have had some great freshly-cooked chips and fish. The serve is generous, too. The staff are happy people and the place is very clean.

I love going into - or even past! - this bakery, because the smells are scrumptious! Their breads are very good, and the filled buns, such as Blueberry or Apple are a real hit! Always friendly service, too.

I like the professionalism of the hairdressers here. They are all very well trained and know their work. The staff here are very caring and make you a cup of tea or coffee, which allows you to unwind! The salon offers beauty services as well as hair, though I haven't used the beauty services yet.

This butcher's shop is currently owned by an ex-chef, so he knows his meat. They make their own sausages and have won awards for best in Queensland and for best in Australia! They also have great specials! One of our most favourite is the "Buy 2 kg for a cheaper price". We often save about ten dollars on these deals. And they can cut special cuts or thicknesses if you want. people come from all over the Sunshine Coast to buy meat here.
