Family restaurants london in West Wickham

“First time trying this place and will certainly go back again. Such a relaxed atmosphere. Good choice of food and not breaking the bank. Menu had variety for lunch and they serve an All day Breakfast too. I had the bubble and squeak with poached egg and the eggs were perfectly done with a nice runny yolk. You go up to the counter to place your order where you will see an array of yummy cakes. I met a group of friends and we were there for at least three hours but you are not made to feel rushed and we sat for a good 90 minutes after our food chatting away. Certainly going to spread the word with friends and family to try this place.”

“Yet another excellent meal at BR4. The cocktails are amazing and I had the delicious homemade asparagus and ricotta tortelloni whilst my friend enjoyed an equally delicious mushroom risotto. Wonderful to have such an excellent restaurant on our doorstep - thank you!”

“Excellent cafe I had the pancakes breakfast number 1 that came with pancakes bacon sausage hashbrowns scrambled egg and toast all beautifully cooked and super tasty. The cafe itself is very clean and tidy with very friendly helpfull staff. The menu is stacked with all foods from super health to super treats and also great milkshakes and beverages.”

“Lovely food, nice big portions and great friendly service. Interior decor is nice and walls are lined with pop culture posters.”

“We had a great time at Harpers. Service is very good and excellent value for money. I definitely recommend.”

“What a wonderful find. Lovely, friendly people, excellent food, very reasonable prices. A taste of Turkey in West Wickham. Recommended.”

“New venue for my daughter's and me. Fantastic food. Had the sea bass on a bed of mashed potatoes with pesto sauce and veg. Was really nice. My eldest she had the fish burger. Which was proper fish in batter. That was also really nice. Will definitely be visiting again. Was not very busy tonight Tuesday.”

“The dough was very soft. Perfectly cooked and the topping was so yummy”

“Newly opened in Coney Hall. Grear Atmosphere, delicious food drinks and cocktails menu . Friendly staff who can't do enough for. Well wort a visit.”

“Outstanding service and exquisite tasting dim sums!!! The Thai Elephant management should be proud of the staff, as Chinese/Thai restaurants are notorious for an impersonal robotic service, however your staff are amiable, attentive, helpful, and knowledgeable (while not being overbearing), and maintaining a professional distance. Looking forward to our next visit!”

“After a lot of years eating kebabs in various locations of the South East- have to say this is by far the best I have ever had! Great food and super friendly staff who remember you- very personable. Can't recommend highly enough.”

“What a place what food will definitely be back again”

“Fantastic food, excellent and prompt service, polite staff and at a reasonable price. This is a great restraunt, and I highly encourage you to go. They were also very understanding of dietary restrictions, and made an excellent vegan pizza for me. The place is certainly child friendly, has what looks like easy access for wheelchairs, and a couple of parking spots outside, though they're not reserved for customers. My only complaint is that I like my pizzas a little more crisp, but I'm sure they would have obliged if I had only told them that.”

“Had a lovely late breakfast. I asked for lightly cooked mushrooms. Came out as I liked them.”

“SUMMARY: Lovely friendly cafe / restaurant. Consistently good. We've visited on different days at different times - always hard-working, polite, diligent, and serve great quality food and drinks. Today's pictures are on a Sunday and the place is very busy - but we don't mind. It can be a bit noisy - but it's a cheerful chatty noise. We have been here when it's super-quiet and peaceful, so it's up to you to choose a good time depending on your mood. THE MENUS: Great choices of breakfast, healthy options, Mediterranean, brunch, lunch and snacks. We're never bored with the choices. Today's photos are the grilled chicken salad after the gym. Substantial, fresh and delicious. See photos of the menus. PRICES: very fair and reasonable - generous portions. DECOR & COMFORT: Contemporary look, nice, comfortable and a choice of indoor and outdoor. At the rear there is more outdoor seating in a cute yard but is down some steps. THE SERVICE: Always good. Very attentive and well trained staff. Eye contact and a genuine concern to make your visit good. They will change things, fix things and want to do the right thing for you. TOILETS: Very clean, smell-free, large, adequate with baby-changing fold down table. Step-free level access for buggies and wheelchairs. See photos. BUT... no handrails for the disabled which really would be a bonus. There was a chap in a wheelchair in the café when we visited, and it would be so much better putting a few more facilities for the less able. (Additionally, the Café entrance step could be corrected to allow for step-free access. It's very small, but I know from experience that even these small steps can be stressful for the less-able.) Finally, regarding the toilets: it is a fashion these days to install really high-powered hand driers. The one in this toilet, like many, is DEAFENING. At some stage, the law will change and these will be removed. Illogically loud. (And you can't put your wet fingers in your ears whilst trying to dry your hands! ) THE LOCATION: Busy part of West Wickham near a cross roads and the local council gym-swimming pool. So, parking outside is on the meter - see photos. The street across the road is free is you can find space (except 1-2 pm, Mon-Fri... be careful, you will get a ticket!). Or, pay to use the gym car-park. OVERALL: You can see from the ratings that The Grind is well respected and loved amongst the locals, the elderly, the young, parents with children & babies, groups, alone, the lads from the gym, the girls on a chatty afternoon... well liked by all. Cheerful, lively, successful. Well done to The Grind. We'll be back!”

“Lovely play cafe for little ones, no big structures so it tends to be smaller kids and a nice small space so you can sit and have a cuppa or lunch or amazing cake and always have an eye on where little one is. Highly recommend x”

“Went there for a double birthday and an anniversary. The food was excellent, and the service was brilliant”

“The food was great, but what I liked the most was their bruschetta. Omg it was delicious!! I am going back there just because of that chopped tomato well seasoned!! The parmigiana di melanzane was very good too, very comforting for a cold evening.”

“Food is amazing! They have one of the best Chicken Tikka Masala dishes that I've ever tasted! Staff are very friendly and attentive! The Manager even came and thanked us for coming before we left and was very friendly and warm to talk to. Overall I had a very enjoyable meal.”

“Lovely place to eat. Nothing is too much trouble and the staff are always so attentive. Food is excellent too...highly recommended.”

“Excellent. Perfectly cooked rice and noodles, yellow bean chicken one of the best I have ever tasted and the chicken satay avoids the excess peanut that so many have and has a gentle but delicious heat in the after taste. Take away ready spot on time. Very generous portions - I'd shared the meal with my adult son and he took the rest home for the next day! Highly recommended”

“I visited here on Christmas Eve 2022 with my brothers and mother. We were served by a waiter called Ted who was beyond friendly, considerate and catered to us massively. Considering how busy it was being Christmas Eve, Ted made our experience a breeze and was the most accommodating waiter we could have asked for. Would 100% revisit and if you have Ted as a server/waiter you will be the luckiest!”

“I cannot thank the staff enough for the amazing pizza making birthday party for my daughter and her 15 friends. Brilliantly run with minimal stress; the kids had the best time!”

“Nice venue. Went on a Saturday and although it was quiet and there was a dj playing 80's music we still had a little boogie and a good laugh!”

“I have passed by this place several times without really noticing it, but was recommended by a friend. Excellent. Perfectly cooked rice and noodles, chicken satay one of the best I have ever tasted. Highly recommended”

“Great sandwich, it was very filling, steak n cheese with all the trimmings.”

“Food is amazing. Street food or thalis.. everything is perfect and mouth watering. We all enjoy your food, even my kids like Samosa Factory :)”

“Following my cousin's funeral, we held the wake at The Railway. I'd ordered a buffet, tea and coffee for 40 people. We were allocated an area of the pub which was just the right size. The food was all of a good standard, and catered for a variety of tastes - and it was plentiful, so it was good value. The staff were all very helpful. I'm glad I chose The Railway for this occasion.”
