“Tried the new Big Arch last night, asked for everything to be made fresh. Man it was awesome, decent weighty burger that gives the quarter pounder a run for its money. Chips were on point the guy at the window was really friendly.”

“I love mcDonald. Anywhere I go to any city, I trust this franchise. I must complement this store in Chartwell mall . Their service, Friendly attitude, is the best in all stores that I have visited . There is a lady Jyoti , she is amazing. She is alert , precise and helpful. Even when she is busy she still helps to get correct points [technical issue] . She guides her team in a polite manner which makes them relaxed during peak hour. Great team player & leader. I recommend this store. Good experience !”

“Generous sizes, the food tastes as good as it's expected from McDonald's, and more importantly the night service actually sells shakes”

“Always tidy plenty of room inside,the parking suffers from being too successful at times, however disability parking is right next to the main doors. I left my wallet in there and they kept it behind the counter for me,even made certain it was mine lol. The food is always hot Breakfast finishes at 11am though.”

“Kinda the expected quality of McDonalds that SHOULD be done. Tasty, still "fresh" as in not room cold or stale, the meat is cooked well, quick service from the app (8 minutes biking and I got the order immediately), and the workers and environment are peaceful and friendly. Given, 7am is not a common time for people to come in.”

McDonald's Cambridge runs with a burger‑led menu and a relaxed pace. Service stays present without fuss. Wait times are contained even when busy. Combinations read bold but stay balanced. Plates offer...

“The only thing bad about Raglan Boat Charters is that eventually it'll end and you'll have to go home - and that will be a sad time. Raglan Boat Charters is a great experience. The staff are amazing, friendly, informative, helpful, will bend over backwards to help you out or get you on a tour. We did the sunset tour on a perfect night and it was a blast. In a truly Kiwi experince, Fish and Chips were delivered before we left - the perfect entree to what was to come. We took a tikitour around the Raglan harbour where the sights were enjoyed and the history of the harbour explained. Birdlife was plentiful, as were the stingray! The Captain gave us a few of his secret fishing spots - but you have to do the tour if you want to find out more about that. As we cruised around, a wicked soundtrack of sing-along party hits played and created a really fun atmosphere. The cruise was more than 90 minutes - incredible value for money and an experience you'll be wanting to repeat quickly! 10 stars.”

“Fantastic local brewery with awesome beer, staff and atmosphere. Best of all they are dog welcoming. Treats and all. In dog we trust.”

“We were treated to a beautiful authentic French four course dinner last week and it was simply superb! We often visit for lunch, and every time we are greeted with wonderful service and even better food - this dinner was something extra special though! Merry Christmas and we'll see you again soon!”

“This little gem of a restaurant truly lives up to its high Google rating. As a connoisseur of Indian food, I was impressed by the quality of the dishes. The samosa entrée was superb, and the chef accommodated our request for a combination prawn and chicken madras, making it perfect for sharing and easy on the wallet and waistline. The meal was complemented by a delicious garlic naan and friendly service. This restaurant is a valuable asset to the Raglan hospitality scene. Give it a try; you won't be disappointed.”

“Fantastic hand made udon noodles, freshly made with a delicious dipping soup base. The fried chicken was crunchy and flavoursome. Generous portions. Small restaurant with only 3 tables inside but also 3 outside. Friendly staff, oudl definitely come again”

“Great selection of sushi and top tier customer service. It really does live up to its name ‘wow sushi’, highly recommend!”

The kitchen at Hell Pizza Te Awamutu takes a pizza‑first path and lets the food speak. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Plates offer plenty without weighing things down. A sensible spend for the spread.

“Always awesome. As a couple we would visit Bootleg at least monthly and each visit is just a great experience. The venue is comfy, rustic, an excellent example of giving life into an old building. The staff go out of their way to welcome us and free tastings are part of the experience. I am not an avid craft beer drinker, but there are so many other options, cider/sours/ lagers...the rhubarb cider when on tap is amazing. Thanks Bootleg team”

“Had a wonderful first session with Pai, she did an amazing job at releasing tension. Best i’ve had in Hamilton!”

I would die for this sushi shop AMAZING FOOD AMAZING QUALITY! I hate subway Silverdale very bad food compare to this. I remember having a whiff of the sushi sent me straight to Japan. The food here give me a bittersweet sense of nostalgia.”

Yellow sushi keeps things Japanese‑leaning and focused on flavour. Views add a quiet lift to the visit. Service stays present without fuss. Sushi and hot dishes come out clean‑flavoured and precise.
