Great guys,friendly,knowledgable and can take and give a joke . Took my ipad down as was having trouble with it,the guy checked it on the spot ,told me he can have a look and fixed it with a hard boot that id tried and didnt work! Typical lol no charge, took ipad back another time before that when they had a different name,same service ,had my ipad for 2 weeks ,replaced it as the new one carked it. . They do repairs on all comps and ipads and laptops . Reasonable costs . Also exchanged my recalled ipad plug with ease , shop is big and very bright,they sell all IT stuff and parking is around the back but limited,not hard to find on the corner opp kmart

Had dinner here after the radiators concert last saturday night. Place looks great and lots of tables and seats right on the jetty or back a little bit under cover. Beautiful surroundings and clean tables. We chose a piece of fish for $9 and extra chips for $2 each so we thought we were getting a decent dinner and 2 drinks coke and a fanta ,not a lot of choice. Cost all up was $34:50. I wandered down to the jetty to grab a table whilst partner ordered .we were starving . He came back with a buzzer and got called when food was ready. Great.
When he got buzzed and came back with 2 cartons i was overjoyed ,food yay lol
Unfortunately what was in the box was extremely disappointing for the cost.! A piece of crumbed fish as small as the palm of my hand and i have small hands! The crumb just fell off when i picked it up and the fish was stiff ,i mean stiff in the middle ,both pieces were actually,felt rubbery down the back of the fish and inedible ,i ate the over thick crumb and tasted the fish,pretty tastless and hard. Was a long wait to go complain so will contact them instead. The chips were very dry and tasteless also, $9 for a tiny piece of fish was over the top. Partner did buy me my mandatory potato scallops which I said were overpriced at $2 each . He got me 2 and that was my dinner as i gave him the dry chips. He didnt eat the rubbery bits of his fish either. Never had fish like that . The potato scallops were really nice tho,thick,nice crispy batter . We wont be eating there again tho ,way over priced . The night was great tho with music,views and company . Great to go for a walk down by the water and eat if you find something in the menu u like

Absolutely the biggest and best venue .
Huge area. Went to the radiators concert last weekend,pleanty of seating on the grassed area out the back overlooking the jetty and bribie and the bay at sunset. We had drinks which was costs of around $12 for a drink each for both of us. Staff are attentive and lovely. We had seats at tables outside .plenty of seats and tables. Toilets are clean and big . Restaurants look really nice will try next time. Pleanty of parking onsite . Concert was free and awesome. Its just so big with pokies area ,bars,eateries. Only thing I didnt like was the fact that kids were wandering around alone and going to,the bar to order their own drink! Think that needs to be addressed . Love the place

This place hasnt been here long,is in the old canoe shop next to the petrol station. They have a of stock and accessories at more than reasonable prices well below the stores. Lovely staff to help,with your needs. Place is just one big store that you can see itmall from the front door. Nice and bright too. Lots of accessories for travel and I ended up buying tags,purse for travel,small backpack and a neck pillow that was only $5 score. Ended up spending a little over $40. Everything is set up easy to find. Love the fact that its suburban and parking is on the side of the store in a parking area.. Saves a lot of hassle than west end parking. Great job guys

Great place to find what I was looking for. Saw adds over time and decided to go check out some much needed new luggage again.
So much stock its hard to choose,soft ,hard .colour. Lots of well known brands too,its like a big warehouse. Parking is on street so be careful.
The prices are below retail. Paid well below cost for my red luggage .$145 for 3 pieces

After another previous instance at a pet shop close by we decided to go check this little place out. Its a garden and pet supplies. Parking is limited .
Place was a bit dark inside but we were greeted and asked if he can be of any help,we asked for what we would,like to look at,tropical fish,right near the front door and he was very knowledgable and help ful but not in our face,so we looked at fish then went out the back to check out the birds,lovely finches,canaries ,budgies,hreat stock of cages and houses ,guinea pigs galore were so cute. Stock was a bit all over the place but lots of it. Garden stuff too . We went back to the fish and bought 2 black mollys $6;50 each and 4 rasboras which we havnt had before. They settled i to the tank with the other fish and we havnt had a problem. So these guys are great,they actually know what they are talking about and the animals all look well cared for. Will go,there again for any needs

Came here looking for new fish. Huge yellow store ,had a wander around and everything was really expensive. Clean and things werent easy to find. Lots of stock and lots of different things for every animal. We hadnt bought tropical Fish for a long time so hadnt looked around at costs. We thought prices for mollies and cat fish were expensive and guppies were $5 each. We ended up asking the girl,and asking for help twice,getting guppies anyway. Girls just work there and have no knowledge of anything about the fish. So off we go home ,tank was clean,sat the fish in the bag in the water for a while then released them. Next day 3 guppies were dead and our large black shark fish that was a few years old and lots of catfish. Cleaned that out and the tank again. Next day the other guppies were dead and more catfish. Told the store something was wrong with there guppies ,told,no,its something we must have done . So we wont be going back. Over priced and sick fish. They do dog washes too but dont have many animals for sale. Supplies are abundant tho ,parking is limited on grounds ,best parking if you can in the stree. Not impressed

Exotic little store
Quite an unusual array of items of clothing
Small store but a big array of clothing
Lady who served me was charming,I eventually decided on a lovely bright multi coloured casual skirt to wear to a party. $45 will frequent again

A little boutique in centre court near coles
I needed a new phone case for my new lumia
Lots to choose from. Quite a big range of cases in the display case, made it hard to choose but eventually liked one red wallet for $25
The girl serving me was helpful and tried my phone in a few cases . Satisfied with my purchase .

Near coles at toombul shopping centre
Was quite impressed with this neat place ,nice colours ,staff were lovely open from 7:30 as well but they do,close early at 4 except Thursday night opened late
They do breakfasts ,coffees ,sandwiches a couple of burgers and the beautiful,open melts we had for lunch after shopping loved the bacon pineapple and cheese for $11 most gorgeous cheese they used ,coffee was so smooth and creamy. Definately worth a try ,not a huge place but worth finding
