Best places to shop in Barking

“I have tried to take my 4 year old son to several barbers. He would always cry and scream and the barbers would always pull a face. FINALLY a barbers my son enjoys his haircut at. This will be our 2nd visit to King barbers and my son is very happy and I am very happy with his haircut, I would definitely recommend king barbers very friendly and definitely a good haircut.”

“Very professional happy everytime I gt my son's hair dun.polite individuals excellent service.”

“Super Ukrainian Food and Treats at a Locally reachable Shop”

“My main supermarket. staff very friendly, spacious car park, well stocked and convinient opening times!”

“Cut a Pomeranian really well , so pleased I found his place”

“A brilliant example of a decent local cafe that there is a real lack of in Barking. Popped in largely by chance (the place we wanted to grab lunch was closed) it looks a bit worn down from the outside but once we got in, really good cafe style English breakfasts, generous portions/good value for money. The biggest thing I wanted to stress was the staff, both really attentive from customer service perspective and just really nice folk! Would heartily recommend and will certainly be back.”

“Big thanks to Matt at the Barking branch who went above and beyond for me today. The system was down so none of my local branches were able to confirm the exact brake calipers I required, after having purchased incorrect ones (even though I used my Reg to verify fitment) he found a way around ECP's technical issue at the time (ie sourcing my vehicles PR code) in order to confirm the exact parts I needed, it was quite urgent as my car was awaiting parts at my local garage on a ramp. Matt was helpful from the outset, whilst waiting for my parts I noticed he had a good rapport with the other customers in branch as well. Make sure you guys at ECP look after him, he's a great asset to the company, quite the opposite to the service at the Bow branch that frequently displays little to no telephone etiquette plus don't alert you when your parts have arrived via click and collect. I'll deffo be purchasing from the Barking branch from here on out!”

“I come here all the time! Even on Christmas Eve 6:30am or New Year’s Day afternoon. I never have an issue and the staff are lovely and friendly! The staff are always helpful to me on many occasions. Yes sometimes the queues can get long but who cares when you all waiting to pay for something you need? Thank you for always helping”

“Clean and affordable but the best thing about this place is the hospitality. Mehwish was sweet, accommodating and just a top notch employee. Would absolutely stay again simply based on her hospitality. 5 stars!”

“Very helpful and friendly staff, been using them for years and can see the pharmacist most of the time when unable to see the doctor. Overall I recommend them.”

“I walked past this shop so many times and never walked in. Then I had to get emergency eggs and OMG, what a jewel! All kinds of Easter European and Balkan foods heaven! Cheeses, meats, cured sausages, Balkan cheeses, maze, smoked fish, fruit and veg... it’s amazing! So, so happy I found it!”

“From the moment I first spoke with TC Coachworks I knew straight away that my car would be in very safe hands. Tony confirmed very quickly that the car could be repaired despite the insurance assessment and provided a very reasonable quote for the work. I was kept informed of progress throughout and the car looks like new. Absolutely delighted with the results and highly recommend this company.”

“Behrooz was very professional and meticulous about his work. I made a few tweaks and he was very accommodating. I was delighted with the end result and would highly recommend him”

“The best dance studio in East London with professional teachers and many different style in reasonable prices!”

“Victor has been my barber for over 15yrs. His knowledge and experience in the art of barbering is displayed in his precision and quality finishes. No haircut is too complicated, and no style too difficult. He caters for all types of hair, and the hours of dedication that he puts into his craft is second to none. If your looking for a haircut, there’s no better barber to turn to. Make your way down to Wellcutt in East Ham and ask for Victor. You won’t be disappointed.”

“Simply Bedrooms came to install bedroom furniture for us after a year long rangling with Bensons for Beds which ended up in us getting a refund an buying the same thing from Simply Bedrooms. I wish we had found them first! We paid for the installation service, the guys that arrived were polite, clean and tidy, and professional. They worked quickly and efficiently. I will def recommend the company to my friends and will order from them again when the need arises.”

“The owner and his assistant are super nice, efficient and always do great job. We have taken our dogs here for 5 years now - they go in looking scruffy and come out proper clean and beautiful.”

“Hands down, honestly the best mechanics in East London. If you're lucky enough to get your repairs completed by H, he'll offer nothing but honest advice and carries out all work to the highest standard. He's also unbelievably humble, attentive to detail, highly efficient and hard-working... he'd drop anything he's doing just to ensure whatever you need is done and you're back on the roads asap. This place truly puts their customers first and i feel privileged to have found this place. He deserves every bit of success and growth. I'd use no other mechanic and haven't used any other for a few years now and will highly recommend his service.”
