This review is for Kingsgrove pub, Kingsgrove NSW

verified email - 14 May 2016

This pub was done up a little while ago, it was a bit of an old man pub, now it's a nicer. It has an internal courtyard and a veranda. There is a large gaming area which is somehow classed as outdoors so people smoke in there.

They have. Good selection of beers on tap and the wine is alright. The bar is a little expensive though.

The resteraunt food is ok, nothing special. The Thai food is nice the western items are a bit average. The kids menu which is very cheap is also quite low quality, cheap very processed chicken nuggets, fish fingers which dont taste nice at all.

There are lots of regulars there who are........ A little rough around the edges shall we say. They tend to be on the front veranda which is also a smoking area and there is lots of loud and colourful language so it's not a good place for children.

I've tried to like this place but it's just a bit average.

I had a couple of bad experiences with these guys and I hate being critical but really it too far.

Good
In general they are good mechanics and are nice people. Pricing is ok for the area

Bad
They are always late, you say you need to pick up and 830 they say sure and then don't show up till 915. If it was just once I could overlook it but it's been all 4 times I've used them so early pick up is a no go.
The last time I went there aside from being late they didn't complete the job and I had to go back which I hate.

Lovely atmosphere. Really friendly staff.

The food was lovely, really refined versions of classic Greek food. The watermelon salad is spectacular.

It's on the expensive side but very nice

Ever feel like you have discovered a hidden Gem? That's what the resteraunt at the Mortdale RSL is.

Great food, delicious burgers, wonderful kids menu, good variety. This is real food, not your standard club fair, good ingredients, made fresh and it's cheap! For the price my expectations were low and it was all beautiful

They have a wonderful play room, small but all the toys seem very clean and well cared for.

It is a club atmosphere so nothing amazing there but nothing to complain about either.

Highly recommend for a local night out

This review is for Dooleys, Lidcombe NSW

Let's start with the good.

The staff are lovely
They have a play room
The food is on the expensive side for a club but very nice when it's nice. Risotto is good, fish is always lovely and the kids meals are nice.

Less good
The play room isn't in great, the ball pit is good, TV is on abc kids, not bad. there are paid games so bring change and prepare to be nagged by your kids. The other toys and the little tables and chairs aren't in good repair or particularly clean
The food is usually good but their pizza is ordinary and their ice-cream Sunday is ice cream with cheap topping and canned whipped cream in a beer glass, looks and tastes bad.

We will go back as its a good place for a family group.

This place is fantastic!

We has a few of their small bites and some cocktails and they were all beautiful. Beautiful ingredients and very creative mixes of flavours. 4 items off the small bites and we were full, could have eaten more as it was all so delicious but 4 really was perfect.

Great atmosphere and lovely friendly staff.

The only down side was that we were sitting right up the back and there was the occasional smell from the bathrooms, book a table near the front and it won't be a problem.

I have always had lovely experiences at Ikea Tempe. The shop is new and is very roomy. The cafe area is huge and great to take kids as they have play space, the food is pretty good considering the price.
The furniture is always kept is great condition

The fish is Beautiful! Calamari is soft and beautiful.
They are very helpful over the phone, told me what was the best fish for my pregnant sister (and where right)
And they use recycled paper packaging which I Love!!!

This review is for Macchina Espresso, Kingsgrove NSW

verified email - 16 Aug 2015

I really wanted to like Macchina as they have 2 shops in my local shopping centre but they are making it hard.

I Love coffee and have an espresso machine at home. When i saw they were a roaster i was excited. If you go in for bean really you need to leave time, lots of time, because it takes them forever! The young staff on the register have often found my request for beans confusing and don't know what to do and its hard to get the managers attention as they are often chatting with their regular customer (which is nice because they are building a good community vibe but can be frustrating if you want something).

Last gripe is that they use cheap and nasty Soy milk. It really tastes bad.

The food they do is actually pretty yummy. Looks and tastes amazing.

The cafes both look beautiful, really stylish and its nice to have outside seating.

The Baristas are pretty good very professional and quite fast
