Met a friend for lunch and was a bit disappointed. The lunch menu is quite limited, although reasonably prepared and presented by friendly staff. The place itself is a little grotty and in need of a good tub and tidy, even maybe a bit of maintenance on the cubicles. Then comes the surprise, the wow factor is their coffee it is just amazing and I will definitely return for morning coffee and sit outside to read the paper and relax.

Recently I purchased a product from this organisation and asked them to deliver direct. Purchased Thursday and I received a call from the receiver Monday to say goods had arrived and everything was in order, 3 day delivery to the Sunshine Coast is exceptional. Their pricing was by far the best, even better than Ebay by about $60 which was a great saving considering the product was under $300 and the delivery fee was included. The quality of products they carry is excellent all good brands. I will certainly shop here again.

WOW!! What can I say. I needed to find a new GP and did some online research and I liked what they said on their website, so went ahead and made an appointment. Everything they claim on the website is fulfilled. I arrived about 5 minutes prior to my appointment and checked in I had been able to download the new patient form and complete it before going so that saved a little time. The reception girls are just wonderful, very efficient without losing their friendliness. I didn't have to wait very long and was impressed with the Dr I had chosen. I needed to have physio and was given a choice of where I wanted to go, and I decided to try their in house "Activate Physiotherapy" and again I couldn't have asked for better - it was same day appointment. There are numerous services in this medical centre which is so convenient. I will certainly try their podiatrist next time. They are very well organised and professional in their approach to patients.

We walked in and were greeted with a very friendly smile and how can I help you. Coffee was served exactly as it should be, smooth and flavoursome, not burnt bitter or so strong your spoon could stand up in it. The accompanying cake was delicious. Even though we didn't have lunch we did take a look at their menu and it is quite varied and we certainly will return to try it out. There were quite a few people at the tables when we arrived but this didn't mean we weren't served promptly and in a very friendly manner. We will be back.

Recently I suffered a "trigger finger" which required surgical correction. I was referred to Dr Kevin Huang at River City Upper Limb Services. Amazingly I was able to obtain an appointment within a week of making contact, and then secondly I was booked into day surgery within another week. So all in all within 2 weeks my problem was resolved. I found the whole experience to be absolutely outstanding (if any surgery can be so quoted). Dr Huang conducts his practice in an extremely professional manner and displays the utmost empathy toward his patients whist being very personable and friendly.

Went in really just to check out what was available. There were quite a few good specials and in general not bad. They not only sell Golden Circle products there is quite a good range of other brands as well. Service was average, the queue was quite slow in moving. Parking is easy. This was my first time and will go again to stock up, however make sure you check use by/expiry dates some can be quite short. Also its a good idea to check out the specials on their website. It is my understanding that the outlet is not owned by Golden Circle. The owners have a deal with Golden Circle to sell overstock, short expiry dates and damaged packaging. I think this also applies to the other brands as well. All in all the value is quite good.

This is a small bulk/self serve type butcher. The quality is the best and prices are very reasonable. It is a cold room that you walk through, make your choice and take to the cash register. They provide jackets for you to use while in store. Meat is packed so that no messy dividing up is required if you want to freeze. A friend recommended this butcher knowing we are very fussy about meat and it has not disappointed. It is now our regular meat supplier. Opening hours are 7 days

The bakery offers a good variety of freshly baked products. Every time I have been in the staff have been bright, cheerful and very friendly. Bread is sliced to your liking or left whole the choice is yours. A good range of breads, rolls, buns, cakes, slices etc. Sweet and savoury whatever your taste its in the shop. Great for picking up something fresh and different for morning or afternoon tea.

SADLY NO LONGER IN BUSINESS

WOW!! Not only the best Kebabs around, they also have Pizza which can only be described as delicious - more like homemade. Service is friendly and fast, servings are abundant and flavours exceptional. Great thing is that they are open until late so tempting for a late night snack on the way home. Plenty of easy parking as they are attached to the BP Servo next to the Pool Shop and Spar Convenience store.

This is an Australian company that trades via ebay under the name of fitness_and_safety. I recently purchased a wrist strap to help with carpal tunnel syndrome for the other half. They were by far the cheapest and I took a punt because I could pay with Paypal. I was pleasantly surprised: the delivery was very prompt and postage cost very reasonable. Their communication was excellent, from advising me that the product had been mailed to thanking me for giving feedback. The product was very well made and the instructions for use were readily available. So far the product seems to be assisting with the problem.
