Family friendly spaces in Orpington

“Discovered this restaurant on a friend’s recommendation and it was totally fantastic. Amazing Indian and Indo-Chinese dishes in and around Bromley/ Orpington area. They even gave a complimentary dish for being a first time visitor to the restaurant doing a take-away. The place looks empty but the kitchen was so busy with takeaway orders in these Corona times. Great tasting food as well. Really pleased with the food and have no hesitation recommending this place.”

“Have loved Nandos since eating at one in South Africa years ago. Really tasty and vibrant food, served by friendly staff. Spicy chicken, chips and a very fresh salad along with a cold beer - fantastic after a film at the Odeon. Reccomended.”

“Brilliant for children. Loads to choose from and staffs are extra friendly and helpful. Clean and spacious too.”

“We got some furniture from here and are extremely happy with the pricing, products and the service.. delivery was on time and the delivery persons were very helpful and courteous.. couldn't expect more!!!”

“My daughter has been at Orpington montessori for over a year now and loves it there. She has never once been reluctant to go in, the opposite infact and has a great relationship with all the staff there, regardless of whether or not they are her key worker. The staff are attentive and helpful, children have so many different opportunities given to them and my daughter has made loads of progress in her phonics and writing which is entirely down to the work they do with her. Even when they changed the school day to a 3.30 finish which we couldn't manage, they were flexible and allowed us to continue with an earlier pick up as those were the hours we had already signed up for, with no charge. We haven't got a bad word to say about Orpington Montessori and had a great feel for it from the first time we visited. I recommend this preschool to everyone we know who lives locally and choose to drive to take my daughter there over more local options.”

“Fantastic little find. Descended on this gem with a double buggy and 4 hot and hangry children ranging from 1 to 14 years old. Staff were friendly, food was really yummy, and great prices. All 5 of us were fed and had sufficient drinks on £37! Service is not included on the bill so make sure to bring some change. Staff definitely deserve it!”

“Family run Sushi restaurant which is the best, freshest sushi you will ever try. It is very popular so you have to get your orders early. I've been coming here for many years and the food is always 5 Star. Great quality and lovely people.”

“Excellent place great choices of drinks not expensive and quite friendly staff. Hopefully they can get a bigger space soon”

“Not been to the Atlas since before Covid shut us down. What a mistake on my behalf. Went there as a party of 8. They sat us in square enabling us to talk to one another. The food was outstanding with the Seafood mezze taking centre stage the prawns were fantastic. The mains also excellent. Cannot fault it, also as they do not sell alcohol you take your own which makes it a very reasonable night out. My advice is go and try it.”

“Great place to grab a bite and a delicious coffee. Service and food was excellent”

“Absolutely lovely food,my recommendations is the chicken kebab and the kofte kebab. Will most definitely go back when in the area.”

“Lovely cafe serving decent hot food, nice variety on the menu and specials. Dog friendly, customer service is quick and easy polite staff. Cafe is in good location after a long walk for refreshments and food”

“Lovely quaint little cafe, with very well cooked breakfast. Recommend!”

“Traditional village pub offering a fabulous service & atmosphere. Highly recommend! Totally welcoming and looked after my mum when she was having car troubles near by. Thanks again for all your help.”

“Beautiful park with lots of wildfowl and their babies. Lovely park all year round.”

“Such a great dining experience. The staff were all amazing, helpful and friendly, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was very relaxed. The cocktails were great and the pudding was so tasty. Our son loved the crayons and the games and puzzles on the back of his menu. We were already planning our return before we'd even finished our meal. Loved the app and all the offers on it. We'll definitely be back.”

“Always well stocked and presented, staff are quite active and attentive, easy layout means everything is easy to find. Don't see the manager on the floor much, seen him once in the year or so I've been coming here, that was to open a till when they were busy, although the lady did have to ring 4 or 5 times lol very happy with the shop, enjoy coming here to shop. Also has air con!”

“Great pub. Good selection of drinks that are reasonably priced & great venue; lots of space. Pool tables, darts, it's got the lot!”

“Amazing pub with a great atmosphere, staff were very friendly, respectful, kind and understanding. Some of the staff are fairly new so it’s best to be patient and give them time to get your order ready. The food is absolutely superb, theres a lot of variety to choose from and the chefs give you a lot of wiggle room to mix and match to make yourself the perfect meal. Also a decent selection of drinks to choose from such as cocktails, ciders, ales you name it. Overall it makes for a very enjoyable experience”

“A stimulating, friendly pre school environment providing excellent facilities and outdoor space. My grand daughter attends here and is very happy and enjoys her time there.”

“I can’t praise Bright Beginnings enough. The staff are all wonderful. So caring, it’s like a home from home. My daughter and son both went to the pre-school and it set them up perfectly for reception. They go the extra mile with summer sports events, nativity, little outings to the local area and regular updates to parents on how little ones are doing. They both raced in every morning. It’s was so lovely to see. I would highly recommend anyone taking a look around to see what they have to offer.”

“Friendly club established over 30 years. Nice clean venue with plenty of off street parking.”

“Hollie is amazing with Charlie and he gets so excited when she comes to pick him up!”
