Best Restaurant ever, Overall!
The Farmers Bistro is unbeatable in terms of value for money, effeciency, style, atmosphere, service, management participation, etc, etc, etc. You do not have a meal here, you have a memorable EXPERIENCE. Everyone here, from the manager to the staff is super efficient, friendly and above all, CARING. WELL DONE, We will definitely be back, as we have been so many times before. Manager (Tiaan) overheard us talking about our house registration which came through and surprised us with champaigne without us expecting anything! Such a wonderful gesture!! Brilliant customer service. Well done!!! We asked if we could buy 8 leather table mats. We said that we would be coming past again next Wednesday. These are ordered from the Cape. He went out of his way to organise it and we are picking these up next Wednesday. A man of his word. He manages 4 restaurants!!!! The waiter who served us the last 2 times when we visited the restaurant is Fortune. EXCELLENT service from him. Makes every visit enjoyable. But each and every staff member is exceptionally well trained and it shows. We use to akways go to Spur (not to take anything away from them), but from the first time we tried Farmers Bistro, we never went anywhere else. If you drive past Alzu and do not visit Farmers Bistro, it is your loss!

Review saved by Fortune!! Excellent restaurant all-round
We had lunch at Farmers Bistro today. This was our third visit here. We always stop here on our way past, just to visit this restaurant. Excellent food, excellent service, allways. Today the waiter said they have zero red wine. Nothing, nada. My wife always has a glass of dry red wine with her lunch. We were very disappointed. The waiter explained that they had issues with ordering. He saw our disappointment and asked one of his managers to make a plan. They quickly went out and bought a few bottles of dry red wine, a good wine, Simonsvlei Shiraz, and the waiter poured my wife a full glass. Well done, Fortune (no 17), we appreciate your dedication. You single-handedly changed a possible very bad review into a 5 star review. I hope your management sees this and acknowledges you accordingly!

DSTV needs to disappear of the face of the earth. Sooner rather than later!!
DSTV Box Office rents out movies for R40 per movie. You pick it on the DSTV channel. You get charged R40 on your DSTV account, WITHOUT FAIL. 100% ACCURACY HERE. I only gave 1 star, because I cannot give a zero star. They do not deserve 1 star. When you want to watch your movie, it does not load. This happens as often as not. Say about 50% of the time. Has ZERO to do with internet or connectivity or anything else!! Then you phone tge DSTV helpline. Shame....poor imbeciles!! Even though you give them ALL the info (to answer to the: - by now, well known nonsense questions they ask you), they still ask you their scripted questions!! ***??! But hear this one: This is hillarious!: They ask you for the "rental code" of the movie. DSTV has not been using rental codes for possibly 4 or 5 years or longer now.. And I tell these *****s this every time I phone them, but they insist that they are right and you are wrong. But DSTV NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, EVER, fail to charge you tge R40, EVER!! I am so glad that we cancelled our Premiun subscription as of today, 31 Dec 2025. SO glad to see this bunch of ****** disappear out of our lives FOREVER!!

NexGen Computing: Brilliant Service!!!
I had Superior/Excellent service from Nick at NexGen Computing today. I bought an MS Office software package from them and I was extremely upset because I thought it was a ****, when I was not prompted for the product key to register the product. It was a lot more than jus that, but anyway, I attacked the company from the start. Nick responded. He was immensely professional and went out of his waty to assist me throughout the whole process, which took a very long time, late on a Saturday afternoon/evening. Brilliant service, perfectly legit business, most professional and very good pricing!! Will definetely use them again, if needed in future. Thx Nick!!

Dial Direct BAD practice
I just got off the line with a Dial Direct consultant. I was told that you lose your entire payback bonus if you put in a windscreen claim. And I phoned them because when I wanted to put in a claim through my app, the app told me the same thing. And the consultant confirmed this. So, it's the only insurance company that I know of where you lose your entire bonus of three years because you put in a windscreen claim. I can understand if you put in a vehicle damage claim, but not a windscreen claim. So, you've got no control over this. We're driving in a country where there's lots of trucks and cars and pebbles on the road, and you get damaged on a windscreen. So, if you want to have insurance where you get penalized for that, then you must go to Dial Direct. I think everyone should be aware of this so that you're not caught when you're considering taking the insurance cover from Dial Direct. So, the best thing for me to do now is to claim and then cancel my insurance and go to another insurance company. Because if I don't claim, then I've got to pay for my full windscreen and then hopefully get a bonus in three years' time. But my bonus currently is about R13,000. In three years' time, it'll be a lot more. So, I'll lose all of that because I put in one windscreen claim now for a few thousand. So, that's not worth it. So, rather than me paying insurance premiums for the next few years, I'd rather just claim and then cancel my insurance. And then I'll go and look for a proper insurance company that doesn't do this.

BRILLIANT SERVICE FROM WILLIAM & ANTONIO AT WOODFORD CAR HIRE RICHARDS BAY
Woodford Car Hire Richards bay gave me EXCELLENT service when I rented a vehicle from them this weekend. They suggested a better rental deal for a longer period, which worked out less expensive for me and had more insurance included. Further to this, William Kietzmann and Antonio Hartley were VERY professional, friendly, extremely competent and it was just an immense pleasure to do business with them. I had a few queries after I left the dealership, and they answered all of my concerns efficiently and unbelievably promptly! The controls and procedures were so good, with pictures and videos of the car and the process, all seamlessly electronic, without any piece of paper in sight !

Mc Donald's Piet Retief -Stay VERY FAR AWAY!!
Bought 1 strawberry Mc Flurry and 2 Plain Sundays in cups this afternoon. The strawberry Mc Flurry looks more like a Mc Cotch..terrible. The 2 cups were only half filled with ice cream. An absolute disgrace! I will highly recommend NOT to visit this place. They clearly like to take their Customers for a ride.
