London's hidden gems in Orpington

“Great food at the end of a long day, Wonderfully tasty meat and a good fresh salad, and chips. Well done”

“Tried this place by accident as the place around the corner was not open as advertised. Delighted I did. It's a food van in the shopping centre car park. The queue for lunch was reassuringly long, and with good reason; the food was tasty and generously portioned. Curry goat was lovely, as well as the jerk chicken. It was served with jollof rice rather than rice and peas but that made a nice change. Really nice Owner too. If I'm in the area will be sure to pay him a visit again”

“The best Lash artist !! I couldn’t recommend her enough, I been doing my lashes with Karolina over 4 years, always been a pleasure. Nice and clean place and of courses amazing lashes.”

“Absolutely amazing little cafe. Beautifully decorated, super lovely staff and the best cake I've eaten in a very long time. Nothing was too much trouble, and there happened to be live music on, which was great. I can't think of a single negative thing to say about the place.”

“Very nice food at reasonable prices. Staff friendly and attentive. Would definitely come here again”

“A nice Sunday Lunch after a stroll around the scenic surroundings that Downe has to offer, cosy feel pub, with a big open fire to warm up beside, lovely food, good value for money, and pleasant staff, all washed down with a glass or two of wine!”

“Beautiful food never fails to disappoint always hot and still fresh when it arrives.Wouldn’t go anywhere else but here tried many others but don’t like them.”

“A quaint little coffee shop in Petts Wood. Delicious coffee and a good selection of sweets or savouries. Lovely service. You order at the counter and they deliver to your table which is always nice. The toasted tea cake in particular was lovely and I must recommend it. Fair prices. About the same as the Costa down the road. Homely decor inside and a few seats outside. They have a doggy bowl of water outside which I always appreciate.”

“Belmondo is a quiet unassuming little gem. Personal favourites are the house blend (so good it doesn't need milk and sugar), silver needles tea is the most beautiful floral hug in a cup. All the food is delicious, you will be spoilt for choice but you will love anything you choose!”

“I would recommend anyone that likes coffee to come here, had a great experience and will be back. Thank you very much.”

“A really nice traditional pub that serves a perfect pint of Guinness at only £3.60 a pint. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, especially Kate. Would highly recommend a visit.”

“I booked my airport transfers to and from my hotel in Prague through Prague Experience. I was very happy with the service. Both drivers we had, Martin and Emil, were friendly, courteous and on-time. It was our first time in Prague and we didn't want the hassle of carrying our luggage on a bus or train from the airport. In spite of a delay at customs/immigration, Martin was waiting for us as expected. In fact, Prague Experience had contacted us via cell phone when we failed to show up on time to verify our arrival and provide directions on where to meet our driver. Unfortunately, my phone's battery was dead and I didn't get the call or message. No worries--Martin was still waiting for us in the arrivals hall as promised. On our return transfer, there was no need to call and verify our reservation. We exited our hotel and Emil was waiting at the curb to take our bags right on time. They both spoke English and answered any questions we had about the area. Highly recommended!”

“First time i have used el Kerman. Found the staff friendly’ couldn’t fault anything..”

“Beautiful place for a drink. Big screen TVs. Music on monthly. Plus outdoor seating and covered seating. Area. Excellent transport links as pub is across from train and bus station. Great place for a quiet drink, friends night out, sports nights. Really worth dropping in.”

“Took my messy westie to see Freya today as my usual groomer is fully booked and I’m so happy with the outcome! Think I’ve just found my girlie a new groomer! Happy mumma happy pup! Thank you Freya!”

“Superb place! Extremely spacious, modern, light and bright. A wonderful venue for everyone. Excellent food and staff were friendly and accomodating. We are looking forward to dropping by again.”
