Lovely ladies attending to customers here. Had to get a script filled and looked around whilst waiting. One girl was extremely patient helping a dottery old lady with her scripts which was nice to see. An average sized chemist ,aisles are a little tight when others are in there but a lot of,the prices are cheap. Nice and bright and clean.
Next to wollies u can do ur shopping and go collect scripts later

Great new revamped and posh restaurant at the back of the caloundra rsl. Upgrades have paid off .
Menu is a big a5 sheet . We attended a birthday get together friday night during school hols. Surprisingly the place wasnt packed and we ordered and were served in 20 minutes. Drinks took longer to get at the bar,rum n coke,ginger beer,llb $16
I ordered the beer battered fish chips n salad and partner ordered the 350 rump with chips n salad $55 all up. My plate of fish was great,2 large peices that seemed fresh and not boxed,barra was soft and the batter was nice and light and home made.thick cuts ,quite a few chips and a small bowl of salad leaves,2 tomato wedges,id prefer more,1 slice cucumber and grated carrot.although it was nice and fresh they could add more variety. The tartare was a bit sparse for the meal,about 2 tsp in a tiny tub which only covered half a peice of fish. I scabbed the mans garkic sauce from his steak lol that was really creamy and lovely. Quite satisfied with the size and quality of my meal .
Partners steak was supposed to be medium rare but came out a bit rarer than he would have liked but ate it as it was late and were were starving.
Atmosphere was lovely,lights,no noise from patrons overbearing,and we were down the side overlooking the car park.
The other restaurants i side are also looking good so will try soon,have a look and you quite like the food here

Back here quite often so time to review again. Its still my number 1 gelato in the area. Last night I had cherry,choc and pineapple and still was so divine. Refreshing,large cups and packed full. Big bright shop,pay before you choose and go for it. A few tables outside is nice to sit and enjoy in summer or walk down the beach a few minutes away. Partner had his standard pistachio,a new rum chocolate which was subtle but nice,baccio which is hazel nut and chocolate.
Its well worth stopping to try . Costs range from $4/$6:80 .

Very disappointed . We came here last night for takeaway. Place is small,nice and tidy. Lighting isnt too bad and the menu is on large boards. Tv in the back wall and lots of tight fitting single file tables either side of the entrance.
Place was about 3/4 full. We ordered what sounded nice ,2 texas bbq burgers with apple slaw,onion rings and loaded fries and a small coke.
Perhaps their non alcoholic drinks could include something other than coke products too.
We waited 25 min for our order outside on the concrete seat on the street garden ,which I thought was a bit long as the burgers only had shredded beef and slaw on them. Not hard to put together
The burgers were way overpriced for the $10 each we paid,the maroochydore store burgers are much bigger.
The taste was nice ,love the apple in the slaw but not enough of it for the cost.
The loaded fries were nice on top with bacon and cheese but a mushy mess under the top layer and not very nice . The onion rings were really thin and oily ,thats all I could taste really was oil. My burger wrapping paper was so full of oil from the meat that it pooled on the paper. Not good guys
Won't give it another chance tho. Packed out frid nights,sat night we drove by at 6;30 and only about 1/4 full. Prefer the guys at maroochydore. If you're out and about tho go have a try but don't go when its packed,the food may be less greasy and served faster. All up we spent about $38

Havnt been here for ages so thought we would try sunday night dinner.
The service is just so so still,nothing outstanding or that friendly. We ate at the gallery and had sweet lip and salad .wait in line wasnt long,bit confusing as to what menu they were using either the board or a menu that had fathers day lunch on it that finished at 5 and we were there at 7 so they need to make up their minds whats customers are using. Members meals are a little cheaper,a band was playing who were good,bit dead when they finished, crowd was minimal so we found a seat and table easily.
Chinese board menu or regular menu. The sweetlip was beautiful and the salad was just the right amount with more than 1 cherry tomato,lettuce,onion,shredded carrot and beetroot and sprouts and dressing and aoli. Just lovely and didnt wait more than 5 min. We had drinks and also $6 banana split each for dessert. The banana was so skinny tho and small,2 scoops of really nice creamy vanilla ice cream ,think it might have been maleny dairy,choc topping whipped cream and nuts. Was nice but try a bigger banana and be perfect. All up cost $54 prices for food are very reasonable.

This little,thai shop front is amazing.
Younorder at the counter and can see the food being cooked fresh and lovely.
Prices are cheap starting from 9.90 the chicken wings inpepper and garlic is so flavoursome. And only $5 for 4 wings. Service is with a smile and very quick. Dishes come in medium and large and so much for so little cost.
Pad khi g stir fried ginger beef is awesome for $10 .50
Well worth finding in the centre

Quite a few dishes on the menu so everyones taste is counted for.
Add a drink for extra $1:50
Kitchen is clean and bright ,parking in the centre is abundant and not a problem
