Sorry this is not a review post. I just discovered this place. So many good reviews and this place happens to be pretty close to my place.
Problem is, I'm kinda obsessed with my privacy. I even wear my hoodies and mask on when I'm punting (thanks covid)

I don't mind running into fellow punters but I don't want anyone outside the shop see me. When I'm punting I always go around 11PM - 01AM.

My questions are:

1) Around 11PM, would you say the road is quiet? No pedestrians, no workers etc?

2) Think there is a back entrance for this shop. How can I access? Do I take a ramp on left side of the building? Bit confused as it will take me to second floor of the building. I am gonna be driving.

I know I'm being ridiculous but since this shop is close to my place I just want to be extra careful.

I will delete this post when I get an answer since it's not a review post. Also let me know if these questions are inappropriate for the thread and I will delete it.

Thanks guys.

You could have posted the question in general too

Being an light industrial area super quiet after hours. Careful of tight turn at top of ramp especially when leaving.

It's quiet around there even during the day. At night that part of Buffalo Rd is pretty much deserted.

Last time I was there I noticed there was an anytime fitness across the road so I parked in front of that and thought going to the gym would be my alibi if needed 🧠

Yes there is a back entrance to the shop if you drive up the ramp and park your car upstairs.

It would be generally quiet unless you run into other punters coming and going.

You guys are too fussy.

I walk there during the day. The mechanics downstairs at the car shop form and line and applaud and cheer loudly as I walk into the shop.

The mechanics are great fun. They clapped before to me and I bowed, it was great fun. Got to have a sense of humour

I parked in the street 3:00pm Monday and walked in the front door. Cars all over the place outside but not a human soul to be seen in the street

Hi Wall20211017,

If you're coming around 11-1am, chances are you'll be the only car on the road, apart from other customers making their way to our shop x)

Its an industrial area so no pedestrians / workers that late at night.

We also have a back entrance which is located left of the front entrance.

The only downside is that the ramp is a bit tight (which has been an issue for some)
