i took advantage of a half-price promotion and started getting these boxes of snack nuts/chocs/etc delivered. is a great idea if you are really busy and want something to arrive so you can eat. not a great deal of food for the price but you are paying for the convenience too.

if you are cooking and need something that is a bit unique then this is the place! has a wonderfully stocked store full of gourmet cheeses, meats, cooking utensils, books, etc.

great place to get advice, cooking lessons. foodies will have a field day here.

great store

lovely place to meet and have a coffee and cake. very squashy so i wouldnt recommend if you have a pram or small children, lots of things for them to touch!

have a delicious array of foods to purchase to take home or eat there. also have a great display of hard-to-find grocery items that are a little bit premium and unique

only used to visit when i needed something special but wandered in recently and was really pleasantly surprised at their range of casual wear that was reasonably priced.

picked up a nice casual tshirt that was on special. the staff member was so helpful and generous with both her time and effort.

would highly recommend this place for shopping - both the clothing and the service. great.

Newest bakery in racecourse road ascot. Has good specials for bread on the weekend. Cheap coffee and large range of lunch selections, such as pies and salad rolls. Also has a sandwich bar so can make up sandwiches and rolls for you.
Great range of cakes that taste great

This review is for Kitchener Road Childrens Centre, Ascot QLD

Brilliant occasional-care centre for children between the ages of 15 months and 5 years. Open from 8.30am to 12.30pm Monday to Friday, your child can attend up to 3 sessions per week.

The staff are so kind and caring and the facilities are fantastic. My son loves attending this centre.

I wish more people knew about it, we only found out about it after being referred by the kindy next door when i went to enrol my son.

bread is generally pretty good here. a shame they dont have any of the 'healthy' loaves that other chain-store bakeries have, such as hi fibre or chia. just your general run-of-the-mill breads.

have good deals - buy one loave and 6 rolls for $6, or 2 loaves for $6.

if you attend at the end of the day (and get the right staff member!) they are generally happy to give you two breads for the price of one.

i'm not a big fan of shopping at coles and woollies but this is just so close to my house that i cant help but stop here to pick up a few things.

shelves are generally well-stocked. it gets a bit crazy around 5-6pm when it get crowded but a good place to shop if you wanted to do so outside of peak times.

Receive superior service from both the Doctors and reception staff when we visit. Children are bulk-billed. Never kept waiting for lengthy periods like at some surgeries. I get my children's immunisations done here, they have a health nurse attend regularly, all free.

It never ceases to amaze me as to the genuinely friendly nature of the reception staff and medical staff. They are so kind to me and my small children.

Highly recommend.

Best cinema around. Good prices, much cheaper than event, especially if you want to visit before 5pm. Worth getting a membership as you get a big discount.
Lovely atmosphere, great sets. Love that you can drink alcohol during movie.
