This review is for Mrs C's Cupcakes, Penrith NSW

verified email - 05 Oct 2014

I was very excited to see a cupcake shop in Penrith after moving here from Newcastle so I was very eager to try! We went in and asked for 6 cupcakes. The girl serving wasn't very welcoming, no smile, no how's your day going etc.
They don't take eftpos which is fine, but there is no sign saying this anywhere which I think would be good.
The cupcakes themselves were very good! Not dry but not too rich either. A great range of flavours too.

Approximate cost: $3.75 per cupcake

My husband, 2 year old daughter and I went here for breakfast on a weekend. We thought we could see some people rafting while we ate. Unfortunately there was no rafting on the day we were there, but that didn't matter. Its still a beautiful spot for breakfast or lunch looking out towards the mountains with all the water around. There are grassy areas too where our daughter was able to run around while we ate.
The food is very reasonably priced and they have a good selection. The coffees are great too!
Will definitely be back!

This review is for Outback Steakhouse, Penrith NSW

This was the first place we visited for dinner after moving to Penrith from Newcastle. We were very impressed! After a not so great first impression by the woman on the front counter, things only got better!
The food was delicious and plentiful! The cheesy fries are some of the best I have ever had! The 4 steaks that we ordered were all cooked exactly how we asked for them. The kids meals are a great price and a good selection too.
Prices are a little high but I feel it was justified as the food and service was so good.
My only complaint was the table we were sat at was too small for all of the food that was bought out!
Very much looking forward to the next time we go back!

Yummy, fresh food and a great selection with some menu items I haven't seen at other cafes. Great size meals too.
Great atmosphere and outlook over the Hive area and sitting out on the verandah is great as you almost forget you are in a shopping centre as it is quieter and away from all the foot traffic.
Definitely will be back!

We got take away from here for dinner the other night and I was a bit dubious as we have only heard bad things. We were told that our order would be 10 minutes. Pretty much exactl 10 minutes later our order arrived. Fresh and hot and cooked well.
The prices seemed a little high, but the food was delicious! Very tempted to eat in now and try some other menu items.

Had lunch here today for the first time and we enjoyed it very much. Meals were flavoursome and generous in size. We sat outside and watched the RAAF planes flying around. Nice setting and the staff we interacted with were all very friendly.

My 20 month old daughter had a procedure done here in the Day Surgery. We were all very well looked after and the nurses were great. They gave my daughter a bravery award and a bunch of helium balloons after her operation and a nice range of food and drinks for her. There was complimentary tea and coffee and comfy waiting areas. Highly recommend.

This review is for Amici's Italian Restaurant, South Brisbane QLD

We had lunch here after spending the morning swimming with our daughter. We had never been to Southbank before so were wandering around trying to decide what to eat for lunch. We all love a good Italian restaurant and the smell of this place lured her in. We were not disappointed!
Was a great place to sit and people watch, with river side views and street views. We had trouble deciding what to get as there was a great selection! The meals were large (without being ridiculously large) and great prices too. The pizzas are fabulous - so yummy!
Definitely recommend!

This review is for Motel Monaco, Ipswich QLD

My husband, 1 year old and I stayed here for 3 nights while visiting friends in Ipswich. It was very central to Riverlink Shopping Centre, a great playground across the road, plenty of places to eat and close to the highway for easy access to Brisbane and the gold Coast etc.
The rooms were very spacious and very clean. Well equipped with flat screen tv and dvd player, reverse cycle air conditioner and ensuite.
My only problem is it is a little bit noisy being on a main road and you can hear through the walls a little, but it was bearable.
Will definitely stay again if the occasion arises.

Approximate cost: $99 per night for a triple

Stumbled across this cafe while holidaying in Ipswich. Had breakfast here and it was great! Good quality food, almost like home cooking.
Service was fast and friendly and prices were reasonable. Will definitely go back if we are in Ipswich again.
