Overall this place is great! The setting was nice and relaxed and sitting outside was lovely and natural. The cafe has great organic food and homemade rockyroad! The coffee was lovely but the meals were the best. They are slightly pricey but you definitely get what you paid for.

Approximate cost: $20

This review is for UQ Sport Fitness Centre, St Lucia QLD

I attend this gym and have been a member for about a month. The staff weren't particularly helpful in signing me up although I only have good things to say about the actual gym. It is a tad busy, which is expected considering it is the only gym on campus although the equipment is easy to use. It is a bit small but there are lots of machines to use. The classes are my favourite though, the PT are interactive and helpful.

Approximate cost: $15 a month

This is a great practice and the staff are caring and lovely. Dr Ma listens and chats to you about any little thing and is very patient. She is great to diagnose and will test anything under the sun to provide an answer to get you on track to good health. There is a reason I keep returning!

I always enjoy eating here. The setting is quite nice and natural which allows you to relax and take a study break. The food is quite delicious and is the service is fantastic, the staff will often have a chat. The coffee is also good and they are often fast if you have somewhere to be.

I enjoy going to this place for fish and chips although the service is very slow. It takes about 30min+ to receive a meal. Unfortunately, the meals are a bit expensive but on the upside it is tasty. The positioning is perfectly close to the beach so once you do get your food its nice to take it down by the water.

Approximate cost: $10

Can't ask for better than this. Classic pub meal by the beach. It is nice to sit outside and has a nice atmosphere. I ordered a burger here and was not disappointed, it was very tasty. The prices were reasonable also. The only bad thing is it took awhile to get our meal. I will definitely be returning though.

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Pizza Caffe, St Lucia QLD

The pizzas are very tasty here! They are cheap for uni students which is great but the food is still of high quality. The menu is extensive so if you are craving a particular pizza they tend to have it. The wait is generally a bit long, but the end product is worth it. I keep coming back, one of my favourite places to dine on campus.

Approximate cost: $10-15 a pizza

This review is for Flawless MUA By Courtney, Brisbane QLD

I was a bridesmaid at a wedding where Courtney was hired for the makeup. She was organised, punctual and very professional on the day which made it a lot less stressful for the bride. The makeup was beautiful! She listened to the details of what was wanted and it turned out exactly how the bride described it. We want to thank Courtney for her amazing makeup and friendly service!

This review is for Cafe Tara, Strathpine QLD

This is a cute, little, out of the way cafe in Westfield Strathpine. I have only ever had coffee here but it is wonderful every time! The staff are so polite and willing to have a chat to you. The setting is also nice and away from the busy shopping area so its an ideal place to stop and take a break!

Approximate cost: $4 for a coffee

This review is for Ambassador Hotel, Redcliffe QLD

If you want a classic pub dinner by the water then this is the place to go! The food is good, I have had steak and salad here and they have both been good meals. These guys are located on the water front which makes the view quite nice and relaxing for dinner and a beer after a long week.

Approximate cost: $15-18
