This review is for Natural Therapeautic Massage, Booval QLD

verified email - 26 Nov 2013

For a massage clinic in the middle of a shopping centre, this is actually quite good. It is relaxing from the minute you enter. The lights are lowered, they play soft music and you can smell the faint incense. The minute you walk in, you forget that you are in a shopping centre.
The massages are relaxing, but not therapeautic. Don't expect to get anything that fixes deep tissue problems, but you will leave feeling relaxed.

Approximate cost: $80

This is a relatively new company to the centre. They are fantastic if you have something electrical that has broken down. You can just take it to them, they will assess the damage, then call you with a quote and timeframe.
They also buy old phones and computers from you. You don't get a lot of money for it, but if it is broken down- it is better than nothing right?

This review is for Booval Gentlemans Barber, Booval QLD

This is a typical old fashioned barber, there are not a lot of them left any more. It is a little shop, with woodgrain benches, chairs to get the beards shaved, they even sill use a straight razor!
Cheaper than a regular hairdresser and if you have a man like I do that won't go to the hairdresser, take him here!

Approximate cost: $15

Have been going here after a trip to Woolworths for years. Every time I go there, I am reminded why I continue to go back there.
It looks like youy everyday 'all you can eat' chinese foodcourt stand. But they do it for you, 3 choices with rice or noodles. This means that they don't need to make excess. They also have the most delicious chicken sticks, spring rolls and dim sims. Great to take home in a takeaway container, because it is as good as any fresh cooked chinese restaurant.
The girls behind the counter are always super nice.

Approximate cost: $10

This review is for A1 Sushi, Booval QLD

This area of the shopping centre has a lot of new stores.
This is one of the best new additions. There is not a lot of places around Ipswich that you can duck into to get something filling and fresh.
It is a little bar like store, with just a sushi cabinet. Your normal selections, mainly cooked chickens and seafoods. No optional extras, but that makes it very easy to pick up a few rolls while heading out the door. Great idea!

This review is for Raceview Fish & Chips, Raceview QLD

Have only ever eaten here once. It wasn't terrible, just not worth returning- there are better options in the area.
The shop is huge, but the space is not very well utilised. There is fridges packed around the outside, with a big empty space in the middle. Only one table. This could be a nice little café to dine in at.
The food itself was typical of a takeaway seafood reasturant. Deep fried, lots of salt to give it flavour. Nothing flash.

Fabulous little bakery. For such a small little shop front, there is such a huge selection of items. Cakes, pastries, savoury rolls, hot foods and drinks. Not to mention all the breads behind the counter.
The staff don't mess around, they get your items, take your money and send you off. Not really rude, just efficient.

This review is for Hot Bread Bin, Newtown QLD

Simple little bakery. Bread is a good price. Only problem is that there are not a lot of variety for a bakery. If you are just after a loaf of white, grain or wholemeal- they have plenty. But if you want a big choice of sweets, or different types of bread like vienna, French sticks or cob loafs- they don't really do it.
Staff is always very friendly and happy.

This review is for Billy Mac's Bakery, Brassall QLD

Would often visit here during the day for lunch when I worked close by. They do amazing food- sandwiches that are so huge you need to hold them with two hands. Baked goods are always so fresh and sometimes the bread is still warm!
Always welcomed with a big happy smile from behind the counter. Be warned though, when you say you are just heading down to Billy Mac's, be prepared to have to buy something for everyone else ;-)

This review is for Walker Pender, Ipswich QLD

This company has been my family solicitors for as long as I can remember. Most recently used them when I bought my house. They are quite expensive- but what solicitors aren't. However, you get what you pay for. They are very thorough, don't mess around- so don't expect them to have a laugh or a joke with you.
The receptionists are always very professional, well dressed and spoken. Highly recommend Walker Pender group.
