I have been here twice now and will continue to return. The service here is great, they remember your name and serve you with a smile. They are also very quick in serving and making the coffee. The coffee here is tasty and cheap. The hidden away location makes it perfect for a quick study break!

Well, this place is certainly interesting. Inside has quite a clinical feel to it but I liked it, the whole atmosphere made it very different to a lot of other cafes. The coffee of course was great, the beans tasted lovely and the coffee was made well. The set up was also good as it gave you a choice to sit outside. The service was also excellent and the coffee was served with a smile. I am always drawn back to cleanskin and would recommend it to anyone.

We recently visited the restaurant in the lobby for breakfast after attending a wedding the previous night. The food was very tasty and included fruit, hot breakfast and pastries in the buffet. We were slightly disappointed with the service as the food kept running out but the food at least was of high quality. The staff also took a while setting us up a table even though we had a reservation from a few months ago. Although the location makes up for most of that as the mountain view was beautiful. Not sure I would return though, the breakfast was not of amazing quality but still nice.

My cousin recently got married at this wonderful venue. I was a bridesmaid and as soon as we got there we were greeted with amazing service. It is important to make sure wedding go along stress free and this was definitely the experience we had. The owners were calm and organised and made sure everything was up to the standards of the bride. The rooms were vintage and absolutely beautiful and the food served at the reception was great! They never rushed anything and the event ran smoothly. In addition, the location was amazing and view was perfect. Thanks Toparies for a great day!

This is place is just a short walk from many nice restaurants in West End so it's easy to go along after dinner for a sneaky cocktail. The waiters are quite lovely and actually come up to take drink orders rather than having to walk to the bar. The cocktails here are really nice, when I was there they even served mine in a tiki cup! The outside area is nice and relaxing, perfect place to catch up with friends!

Seriously amazing Greek food! I had a dinner plate with marinated meat, salad, haloumi and chips and it was seriously amazing. The food is very tasty and the portion sizes are big so you get a lot for your money. The restaurant is also byo so you can enjoy your meal with a nice wine and enjoy the West End atmosphere. I would recommend this place to everyone, and I have!

I was a bridesmaid at my cousins wedding and we all got our tans here. The ladies who worked here are amazingly nice and helpful but I wasn't too happy with the actual tan. We asked for light but the tan came out really dark, after a few washes it was ok but maybe need a new brand or formula. Also there were no paper g strings available, which are normally offered at other salons. Regardless, the service was great.

My computer recently crashed and I had a number of important documents saved that I thought I had lost. A family member recommended this business and I was definitely not disappointed. Although the problem could not be fixed (my hard-drive was corrupted and required new parts), Kurtis was able to retrieve all my important pictures and documents and did so with a friendly smile without throwing technical jargon in to confuse me. I highly recommend his services to anyone with computer issues.

The set up of this pub is quite nice. The hotel is quite open which accentuates the lovely view and positioning near the water at woody point. I have been here repeatedly and have enjoyed every visit. I ordered the fish and chips on one visit and I found it quite enjoyable. Another time I was there for a function where the catering was also lovely. The staff are so great and friendly making it a pleasant experience. Great food, great staff and amazing setting! Always a great time at this place :)

The food is great here although the service is waining. I ordered the chicken pizza and it was very lovely although it took about an hour to get my food. The fit out is quite nice though, it was a nice rustic feel which suits the restaurant. The waitresses are fairly friendly although barely check on you to see whether you need anything. Overall a nice meal can be had here if you are willing to wait.
