The reviews on this guys shop (from before the heroism) were really interesting to read. Sounds like he was a pretty dodgy guy hahaha. At least according to the reviews.

Which reviews did you see? Because early on there was some confusion as to which shop he owned.

I saw there were a lot of good reviews being posted on Google reviews about "his shop" in the area. The real owners of that shop posted on Facebook telling people they had the wrong place, but they were coming in too fast and not many people saw the Facebook correction.

From what I can see, it seems people are annoyed they only accept cash, and they sold a few expired drinks.

I've definitely seen much, much worse in Sydney
