I love that you can create your own meal here from a variety of fresh ingredients. Always, fresh, fast and delicious. Great for when I've lost the will to cook!

This review is for Doctors At Coomera, Coomera QLD

Finally! A doctor that listens and takes my concerns seriously. Reception are friendly and effiecent, they confirm your appointments the day before. Doctors are professional, friendly and thorough. They have recently stopped blanket bulk billing, but children, pensioners, etc are all still bulk billed. I had food poisoning once and was throwing up so they gave me a shot that stopped that straight away. Not sure if that's standard practice elsewhere ( I doubt it) I was so thankful at the time!

This review is for Espresso Laundry Service And Dry Cleaning, Arundel QLD

Had to wait for service, noticed shop was quite dusty whilst I was waiting. They don't have the facilities to launder my big doona normally so I had to get it dry cleaned, I was a bit dissapointed about that as where I live previously it was no problem.

Service was friendly, however I feel that the person I dealt with needs more time to practise thier english before being left to work unsupervised, poor thing was very nevous.

I also think they should pre - disclose when they are sending your item to another company.
Not a bad job, thought $28 was a bit much though.

Approximate cost: $28

As I was looking at shoes, I tried on two sizes and then accidentaly picked up and bought the pair I meant to put back on the shelf. I didn't realize until the next day when I went to wear them and they felt like clown shoes. I though I had buckleys chance of exchanging them as it was my problem but I asked anyways and was super relieved that they let me exchange them, no questions asked. Seriously. Problem solved in 30 seconds flat.

This review is for Harbourtown Discount Fruit And Vegetables, Biggera Waters QLD

These guys run some crazy discounts at times (iceberg lettuces for 9c each...). And thier everyday prices are generally quite good, however they achieve this often through purchasing 'seconds' - overripe, underripe, inconsistent sized or bruised products, which in itself is not a bad thing but this needs to be taken into account when purchasing and planning when or how to use a priduct. And it's hard to get good service from the register staff, it's better to approach the back door if you need help or want to know if they have more of something.

Best buys, the lettuce at 9c, 50c punnets of perfect cherry tomatoes, $1 bunch of shallots that was as fat as a 2l softdrink bottle and about a metre long!, the most amazing plums I've ever eaten, 2kgs of yellow beans for $2. Have an awesome range of decent bunches of herbs too.

Always worth a look if you're in that part of town.

I don't get here often enough anymore... I've never had a bad experience at Big Dad's Pies. Delicious, tasty, fresh pies in a clean shop, with friendly staff.

This place is decked out in fast food Mcdonalds colours, but don't let that put you off. The menu is simple. Grilled chicken, lamb, or beef kofte are available either as a burger, wrap or plate with rice and salad. Chips, drinks are also avaiable. As is an AMAZING fruit salad. I've been several times and never had the same fruit salad, it changes daily to whatever is good, and it is obvioulsy cut to order. This place is fast, friendly, cheap, clean and serves tasty, fresh food.

Approximate cost: $5-11

Love these guys. I am signed up to their email newsletter, and am a regular shopper there. My favorite special was a $9.99? a kilo msa whole rump (better that supermarket quality), with 12kg free chicken pieces and a free butterfied lamb leg.

They are always happy to help and slice for free.

Went in after a short sleeve shirt (in the middle of winter lol!) Lady at counter was very helpful redirecting us to their Harbourtown outlet. Checked out some of the other stock there, was all very nice looking and resonably priced too.

Super Butcher provides quality meat normally .bound for overseas markets via thier retail outlets and also via thier website. When you walk in it's really cold inside, but they saw I was cold and offered me a jacket to borrow. They have everything! And they have it in bulk! And they'll even slice it for you. But it's actually very approachable. I go there to get lamb shoulder because I can't find it anywhere else. Staff are very helpful and even offered me recipes to match what I was buying. The thing I was most impressed about is that they do as little as possible to the meat prior to sale which gives you more options when you are getting it sliced or diced or whatever. Check out thier website and thier newsletter.
