I love this little terrace-converted cafe. Unfortunately though, so does everyone else in the area. So often I am forced to line up for 5-10 minutes before I am able to be seated. The coffees are sensational - you must try the signature maple mottle. The staff are all friendly, albeit busy. The food is fresh and comes in generous servings. There are also plenty of magazines and newspapers to make you feel just at home, and to not want to leave.

This nail salon is a standard Asian-style nail bar. The service is satisfactory, and the prices are relative to others in Sydney. I don't have any negative comments about the establishment, nor are there any outstanding features I feel are worthy of complementation. They offer OPI nail polish products which is great, and also has them for sale at a good price $20. If you are looking for an easy, no-fuss mani/pedi I would recommend this business, however, if you are looking for a little more indulgence/luxury I'll suggest you visited elsewhere. The staff are all very sweet.
Approximate cost: $40
I had the pleasure of stumbling across this salon online, and was therefore surprised to find that she provides spray tans as a home business. However, don't let this deter you - Nic is just so lovely inside and out. She is careful and pays great attention to detail. My spray was perfect! The $20 intro offer is also an added bonus.
Approximate cost: $20
The food itself is fantastic - fresh and healthy. The service however needs improvement - the staff never seem to be happy to serve. I almost don't even feel welcome visiting.
Wendy is not only one of the most experienced hair removal technicians in Sydney, she is intelligent, caring and always manages to make any situation into a laugh. I thoroughly enjoy my visits to her. What differentiates her from other 'chain' salons, is her attention to detail - she doesn't miss a square millimetre.
The staff at this store were extremely unprofessional and unhelpful. They refused to assist me, and instead gave me a phone number to call. The person on this phone was disappointed that the Pitt St store could not resolve the issue face to face. I left the store on bad terms with the staff member, who behaved as a child fighting in a playground. I tried to phone them every day for a week following, with not a single answer or return to my message.
By far, the best facial I have ever experienced. The technique used is science based, and the technician is passionate about achieving a result. In addition to this, I was so deeply relaxed I almost fell to sleep. For all booked in - you're in for a treat.
Thanks, I might check this place out next time I am in Paddington.
