Awesome work and friendly guy, its always a pleasure to ask him to fix my shoes. The only business worth tipping!!
He charges very little to make keys and fix shoes, and always polishes your shoes for free.

Went there 4 times for acupuncture based on a friends recommendation. My usual practitioner in the city was on maternity leave and i thought i'd try them. It was all very unprofessionally run and disappointing. They charge substantially more than other practitioners, hardly spend any time with you the patient and even worse, bring students to stand over you to guess what is wrong. I previously had such a good professional practitioner so i was not ready for this. The lead practitioner would hand me to a new practitioner who knew nothing about my condition or history, one session they left me in a freezing room (a good acupuncturist will cover your body during treatment as you must relax for acupuncture to be effective) and no matter how many times i called for help, no one could hear (as i was at the other end of the hall). Overall a really bad experience, over a month on treatments and they still had no idea what was wrong with me. They also kept little to no record of my condition and constantly had to be reminded what i had.
It seems business is now thriving and they dont care much about new clients. So i stopped going and returned to my usual practitioner who didn't experiment on me.

I've been getting treatments here from Nicole and Trevor for well over a year and its been wonderful with my chronic condition. They have been more helpful in a year than my doctors and specialists were for a decade. I have received acupuncture from other people in the past but none have measured to the professionalism of these two. I'd recommend them any day. They spend more 1 on 1 time with you than any other practitioner and also charge less. They even let you decide how many sessions you want, unlike others who create a sense of guilt in the patient of she doesn't want to continue.
Wonderful!!!

Although this is not my local Bunnings, i return to it often as the staff are so incredibly nice and helpful! They certainly go out of their way for you, and genuinely want to help.
So much so that a few weeks ago, one staff member Paul was nice enough to change my popped tire for me! He was so gracious about it, and wouldnt accept any tips.
Thanks Bunnings Thornleigh, you rock!

the 4 of us ate here one night on our way from the airport, and we were all pleasantly surprised by the delicious taste of all 4 meals we ordered (we shared). Their servings were generous and the price was reasonable, but the taste was amazing!

We made the mistake of ordering ribs from this place. They seemed to have a special so we thought they know how to serve ribs. When the food came, they didnt bring us any extra plates for the bones, even after we asked for something to place our bones in. Then when we asked for napkins to wipe our hands with (obviously when you eat ribs with your hands, you need to wipe them clean), he brought over a piece of blue Chux wipe!!! My partner was socked. Then they charged us $80 for the very average meal and service.
Wont go back again.

This review is for The Clear Skin Clinic, Double Bay NSW

Ive had 5 treatments here for my acne and the results have been great. At 28 i was still breaking out badly and nothing i tried previously worked, until a colleague who had great results at the Clear Skin Clinic 7 years ago recommended i try it. After 7 years her skin still looked good, so i thought id give it ago. I had tried everything else without luck.
It can seem costly upfront, but considering all the money people with acne spend on useless products, its well worth it.
Im now needing less extractions, and everyone has seen the improvement in my face. im very happy!!

Approximate cost: $95
