The Party Hive is an excellent place to go hire a helium tank and balloons if you feel comfortable inflating your own. The helium tanks are quite easy to use although make sure you park close to the door as they are very heavy when full. The also have various other decorations and party supplies.

I go to Natural Living at Belco markets mainly to get nuts, they have a big range of different kinds generally organic. They staff are always helpful and there's also a big range of gluten free cooking products and various natural health supplements.

I've been here a couple of times for a basic manicure as they do them very cheap. The staff aren't very friendly but they get the job done quickly and without fuss. I wouldn't go here for a specialised treatment such as gel or shellac as they just don't seem to take a huge amount of care in their work.

I went here for a manicure and gel nails and it was a fabulous experience. The salon is stunning, beautifully designed and the staff are great. I love the service of them having a big espresso machine and making you a delicious drink whilst you relax and enjoy their services.

I had my ears pierced here and found the staff to be very friendly and calming through the whole process. The facilities are very clean and neat which is exactly want you want from a place that offers piercing services.

This shop is a total blast to be in! There are hundreds of costumes for both kids and adults, all well made and a reasonable price. They also stock lots of decorations like balloons and helium tanks for hire.

I went here shopping for decorations for my son's first birthday cake. The lady working was incredibly helpful and made sure I walked away with items that would do what I wanted them to and that I was confident in using them. The range of small decorations such as different coloured sprinkles etc is enormous and there is also a vast selection of ready made fondants, books, cake making tools and more. I'd love to do one of their cake decorating courses sometime as I've only heard great things.

Binara one is conveniently located at Crowne Plaza hotel right near Casino Canberra. It has comfortable tables and the bar staff are well trained. Drinks are reasonably priced for the city but the food is a little expensive.

Lovely Indian restaurant at Isaacs shops. They also do delivery through the Eatnow app with 10% off the first order which is great. Big servings and delicious curries.

These guys are great for actually testing your pool water and helping you to get the balance right. They explain everything really well and offer quick solutions.
