Since the last review in 2011 this woolies has had a MASSIVE make-over. It is slick , modern , massive and easy to navigate. It has a bright airy feel is nice to shop in. The fresh food section is pretty impressive.... good range and good looking produce. I love the health food isle there, well stocked and on par with health food shops for price. Self service is a breeze - I've never, ever waited to be served there. There is some awesome indigenous art decorating the exterior of the building too which I appreciate.
This Op Shop is AMAZING . What a little gem , jam packed with bits and bobs. Divided into different zones, the layout of this op shop makes it nice and easy to navigate. Clothes in one room, kitchen the next and furniture has a dedicated space towards the back. Well priced - old fashioned pricing which is what I like about thrifting. Well worth a visit
Nice friendly staff at this Post Office . Everything you might expect is here and the wait times are pretty good! . Can't ask for too much more at your local PO. They also have a great little range of well priced gifts and knick knacks.
This is the perfect old fashioned butcher. He is the friendliest bloke around and seems to know everyone. We popped in looking for a nice rump steak and he showed us that and more. They have a great range of deli items (the olives are awesome) as well as a well stocked little pantry section. A real surprise selection - coconut sugar !! They even have a little freezer filled with yummy treats. Support your local small business and if your'e around Alstonville - support this one.
Such a great bookstore. So nice to go into old fashioned book shops with old fashioned service! The cooking section is awesome, heaps of healthy cookbooks and the art section is also well stocked. They have a great range of gift cards also- perfect to get a gift all sorted in the one store. I would love if there was a bit of a sale section.... sometimes on a uni budget it makes life a bit easier. Otherwise, perfect. Also ... how could I forget COFFEE , how awesome that you can get a coffee here! makes for an experience rather than a quick shop
mmmmmm yummy YUM CHA and dumplings here at Red Ginger. On a cold day I love popping in for a little selection of plump delicious dumplings / rice balls / bits and bobs. Always fresh . Always delicious. Great range of condiments to pop on top (chilli sauce yay) . I love the unlimited green tea at the tables too. Not much seating so get in early for lunch. Red Ginger has a great range of homewares and lots of cookbooks too if you're in need of some inspiration. Love it .
Utopia is a nice little find in the heart of Main st Bangalow. Yummy Campos coffee ... and delicious treats (even raw vegan ones yay). The mains are nice ... not standout , but nice. I love the space towards the back of the cafe. Light and bright with beautiful views.
I like Blackboard . The coffee is consistent and the dining deck is GORGEOUS . Really beautiful on a sunny day . The food is a tiny bit lacklustre for me though. The menu is great if you like your classics - Eggs bene/ Fish & chips etc ... But if you're looking for something a bit different or new this isn't the place. Staff are nice and it's definitely worth a visit just to check out its amazing location
YUM ! No wonder all the locals pack this place out. I went with my partner on a Friday night and luckily they squeezed us in without a booking because this place is a gem! Fresh , vibrant , tasty thai ... not that soggy underwhelming type . I had an awesome thom yum and my partner, a green fish curry. Fish is local and the veggies fresh as it gets. I had a nice glass of red and we were so full we skipped dessert. Very reasonably priced and the service was warm and friendly AND with smiles (my favourite!) Best Thai in the area
Beautiful / gorgeous/ hippe bohemian luxe vibes in this store. A sea of floaty kimonos, summer frocks, dressy numbers, boots , jewels!!! Everything you might possibly need or want. I LOVE the prints on their fabrics. Whimsical , soft , florals mixed with bright paisleys and tough but girly leathers. Staff are wonderful and helpful. This is my go to for special events . (I'm a casual special events attendee though) . Think beach wedding quest attire. Go there! You'll love it
