We have been coming here over many years, but last Friday afternoon they lost my business. I wanted to buy 2 fruit whips (frozen yoghurt blended with fruit) to take away to put in the freezer for use the next night (we have 3 young grandchildren who stay over on weekends & it is their ‘treat’, but going into Hastings St on Sat night with 3 kids is not fun!). But I was told that they can’t do it take-away, despite the fact that I’ve been getting it on our holiday breaks for the past 2 -3 years. When I mentioned that, the girl told me that she has been there for 12 years & they don’t do it, because they can’t get the quantity right - I’m not sure how they get the quantity right when it’s in the regular sized cup?? All I wanted was the regular size, but in a take-away container - heaven forbid if I got 2 tablespoons extra, rather than washing it down the sink!!

It was only once I approached the counter again that she removed the product from the fridge. In the following days the person that consumed the tea fell ill. I have never left a 1 star review and I have never been so upset with a response...
Read moreI’m giving them a one star because I grew up eating this ice cream in Noosa, Brisbane & Gold Coast. They used to be the best, offering a variety of flavours with whipped cream, topping and a pecan nut. Jamaica almond fudge and rum & raisin were the classic favourites. Today there was no Jamaica almond fudge in sight. The rum & raisin tasted like milk with sour and bitter raisins and the Easter chocolate and caramel flavour also tasted like milk. The only chocolate flavour was a solid piece of cheap chocolate and no caramel taste at all. To say it was a disappointment is an understatement. A childhood favourite has been ruined. Gelatissimo is better than what I had today. I don’t think I will be going back ever again. I’ll just hold onto the...
