The coffee was lovely. I just got home and called in there on the way. They were super friendly. They had these really cut (and delicious) "bite me" biscuits. Will definitely return

I loved how I could just order a tasting platter for my dinner because everything and looked so good. The sea scallops were cooked to perfection, as was the barramundi and soft shelled crab. I went back the next night to try the Moreton bay bug and ... delicious. You should definitely give them a go.

I've never treated myself to anything like this before. I had a facial followed by a massage. What I loved was the use of natural ingredients in the facial. The massage was sooo relaxing and my back still feels better for it

I had lunch there last week. The sandwich selection is pretty fancy to say the least. I've heard about pulled pork and had it in one of the delicious sandwiches. I went back for breakfast the next morning and the salmon eggs benedict was beautiful.

I just got over the flu and decided to take myself away for a few days and this is where I ended up. First off, he view is to-die-for. The only thing they didn't have was a restaurant but there are heaps within walking distance. The staff were amazing. Nothing was too much trouble and they look prepared for anything that you feel up to. Beach? Deckchairs, balls, noodles ...you name it. Stopping at the pub? Ice buckets. The pool was heated and I could have stayed all day in there. I'm definitely going back!

I used to love this site but for about the last six months a lot of the surveys I complete say "pending" and then for some excuse or another I am not rewarded even though they have been completed. Their reasoning is that they are pending until a final decision has been made to accept them! I'm leaving.

The food here is incredible. Not just sausages and sauerkraut but a simply beautiful variety of dishes. I had the sauerbraten which was beautifully cooked to melt-in-the-mouth stage while my partner raved about the pork knuckle. Lovely atmosphere and staff.

We spent Sunday afternoon hanging out at the Plough Inn. It was lovely just to sit out in the sun with some plates of food to share and a few beers. Ok. It's not the cheapest but I really enjoyed the ambience and the staff were lovely

This is the place to go if you want a cheap, no-frills hair-cut. You take a number and wait your turn. If you're after a style cut, don't go. The staff are relaxed and friendly and it's good to see that there are places around like this. Last time I went it was pretty good.

Ok. You have to look past the service but these are the best kebabs in Brisbane. The tabouleh is lovely and fresh and the chicken kebab that I had today was absolutely delicious. At the prices charged they are obviously focussed on pumping the food out. No goodbyes or thankyous ...just on to the next customer!
