pizza here is fantastic, i haven't had pizza as fresh as this before and it was cooked to perfection. haven't tried anything else there yet but they do hav kebabs etc. well worth a try i will say you wont go back to pizza hut or dominos. price is abit more expensive but well worth it for the fresh taste.

vets 4 pets are fantastic they take good care of your pets and they make you undestand any problems. they also do pet grooming and i know for one thing my dog loved going to the vets so i guess that speaks for itself. great service and definately cheaper than most other vets.

its great shopping at the village. overall the place is not that big like TTP and other shopping centres. I like to shop at several different places ie big w for bulk items woolies for groceries foodland for meat etc. the village makes it easy to shop at all these places and it doesn't ware you out. i always get great service and quality. You always find a car park close to the doors and there is great shops like go-lo and great coffee shops. the best thing is that i dont have to walk a far distance to go between the shops like i like to do. definatley a great place to shop and their website has great info aswell,

i have never had any great experiences with mechanics being a woman i always feel like i get ripped off. I took my car to Midas Car Care Centre as i looked on websites for good mechanics and i liked the fact that this car care centre is managed by a woman. I felt very welcome there and i was met at the reception by the manager and i was quoted correctly and it was explained to me exactly what was going to happen. i also got phone call about one of the problems with my car (i already knew the problem but wanted to see what they would tell me about it) the whole experience was great and totally recommend them to my friends especially female friends. price was fantastic aswell.

Recently took my daughter to the movies for the first time as she is 3. I took her to Odeon as i was on a budget and Odeon are very cheap for a cinema. It cost us $7 per person which was great. We got two tickets popcorn drink and two chomps (choc bars) for $20 which i think is great value. The theatre it self isn't as big and glamourous as the othe hi tech cinemas but i still really enjoyed it. My daughter loved the movie and was so excited she got to to the movies. Will definately take her back there again

Approximate cost: $7 per person

This is a cafe with a great big indoor playground for the kids to play on. this is a great idea especially on the wet and cold days that the kids drive you crazy. There is a fee for the kids only adults are free. The only down fall is that you aren't allowed to bring your own drinks or food which is probaby because most of their income comes from the food and drinks. but water should be allowed to be bought in.

Hungry Jacks Children's Birthday Party. My daughter recently had her birthday party here. It was great all the kids had a great time and the adults got to sit down and relax. they had provided party games with prizes for free food and drinks at hungry jacks which was great. Overall the kids had a great time on the play equipment the price was great for what you got ie party room, party bags full of crayons colour in books etc food for the kids and free refill drinks for the kids. a free coffee or tea for the adults, kids had fun for an hour and a half. and best of all no mess to clean up. would definately recommend for kids birthday parties.

Approximate cost: $5/child

Kwix Stix is Chinese food and i was very surprised when our family ate there. we went on a Tuesday nite and kids eat free (1 kid per 1 paying adult) the resturant was very pleasant with a great atmosphere. the food was fantastic and was more than we could eat. The service was great and very fast.  it cost us $33 for a two course meal for two adults and the kids received a huge plate of food each for free which was great. would definitely recommend going there. they also have take away food.

Fantastic place to take the kids. I have been to the gorge once so far but will definitely go back. it is like a zoo with loads of animals to look at like monkeys (who are very cheeky) to alligators and penguins. i think the most amazing part is that you can walk through the wallaby enclosure and feed the wallabies, they are so friendly and great with kids they feed straight from your hand which the kids just love. you can spend hours just with the wallabies. you can also hold koalas there are three session times and this is free. overall you can spend a whole day there with the kids and it wont cost you the earth and the kids can just run around looking and interacting with the animals.

Approximate cost: $adults $13, kids $7, Students and Pensioners $10 kids under 3 free

My daughter has been at this centre since she was 10mths old she is now 3. It originally was Hutchinson child care but abc bought them out. i wasn't very happy that my daughter was going to an ABC centre but as the staff didnt change i kept my daughter there.  It goes to show its not the name of the centre that makes a child care its the staff that make a child care a good child care. My daughter loves it there and has great friends in the staff and other kids that go there. we are made to feel like it is a second home for us and always feel welcome.
