Picnic food in London

“10 items belly buster is a flavour holiday Wonderful service every time we visit”

“What a gem! We had a late lunch in the park there. The staff was lovely, we had a chat and suggestions what to order. Soup of the day was amazing and the savoury tart was well seasoned and had plenty of cheese. Dog friendly and a lot of vegetarian options. Will be back!”

“Brilliant Co-op branch! I recieved excellent levels of customer service and the staff were very helpful and friendly. They were very cheerful and motivated! Normally (when will we ever see normal again) this Co op branch gets extremely busy and jam packed Monday-Friday during lunchtime and it is impossible to browse the store properly. The aisles are narrow and you are constantly heaving and pushing your way through people in the queues and other customers with baskets doing their shopping and others thinking about which Sandwich to have for lunch. However, for a small store there is a good product range and variety with a wide choice of clearly labelled vegetarian and vegan products. The bakery is absolutely delicious and it tastes very fresh and will go down as a treat for you. I strongly recommend the custard doughnuts, milk chocolate cookies and the croissants (very soft and fluffy). It is slightly more expensive than Tesco and Sainsburys but the quality is good so you are getting a premium product for the price.The store is well organised and the design is great but expect to be in a battlefield Monday-Friday lunchtimes (obviously not now because of lockdown). Overall, I highly recommend shopping here and the meal deal tastes and boasts wonderful quality throughout it is amazing and is worth the £3.50!”

“Nice place for your food condiments and drinks”

“Good customer service. Also good collection of snacks”

“Best coffee ever! Wild bean cafe make the best cappuccino in carshalton and the staff are so helpful and friendly. I am a regular customer and there are long queues in the morning for the brilliant coffee. Don't bother with a coffee shop. It won't be as good and the staff are exeptionale.”

“Amazing food and great service!”

“Very nice place for a little park brake A bit pricy and not mutch choice in food but beer is good ;)”

“Very good service”

“Hefiz at Harris is so amazing! Best prices!!! Even up to £1 to £2 cheaper on products then the 24 hour shop next door! Super friendly!!”

“The staff are very friendly and welcoming”

“Food and drinks I get from here are never expired, nice prices, very nice people.”

“Booked a takeaway a couple of hours in advance so it would be delivered just before the football. Arrived spot on time; was all very hot and the portions were massive! All the food was very, very good and I liked the extras such as a tray of salad and the free starter offer. Delivery guy was friendly, had the exact change ready and wasn't expecting a tip (he got one though). Will definitely be ordering again from them.”

“Organic corner shop / supermarket / coffee shop. Very friendly staff and quite knowledgeable of eco-friendly affairs. We just stopped for coffee and a pastry, sat outside in the sun. A very nice experience all round. For what it's worth, they also have a great selection of single malt whisky bottles.”

“Banstead Vintners is a superb, independent wine merchant. They are invariably friendly and happy to talk you through your purchases, respectful of budget, and never try to up-sell. Their knowledge is second to none as well, and will guide you well if you give them a little idea of your tastes. A superb business.”

“Oh my gosh, I have never thought of a cafe in the park being a contender for "nicest cafe in the area" vibe, but this is exactly what Mountsfield Park Cafe is! My favourite cafe in all of Hither Green and Catford. The fact it's in Mountsfield Park is an asset too, I love nature, and the whole vibe is very non-pretentious. Every single staff member is consistantly lovely, so even when I turn up looking a bit rough for wear, I don't feel like i'm not welcome :) Before this cafe, I really wasn't fussed or could taste the difference in coffee, but now i've gone back so many times (because their coffee is delicious) that I can now taste the difference in other cafes ha!! I'm going to move out of Hither Green soon but i've already thought about how I can still regularly come back to this lovely place and park. It's been a really consistant highlight and peaceful thing to do”

“What a fantastic cafe and pleasure to work with. I asked them to cater for my daughter's birthday party and it was such a fantastic experience for a very stressed mum. The food was very delicious and all the guests gave me such good feedback. Martina was very friendly and patient with me answering my million questions and requests. More kids parties coming and I know who to trust for food. So happy I found this gem!”

“Fantastic breakfast sandwich. Had a bacon, sausage and egg and was possibly the best I've ever had from a cafe. Will definitely be returning!”

“Very helpful good selection of quality items reasonably priced”

“The restaurant has a lovely warm atmosphere. Food was amazing- fantastic portions and good prices. The staff were also extremely friendly and accommodating. Would recommend!”

“The best Christmas tree I have ever purchased”

“have been twice so far and plan on going many more occasions Would highly recommend the elderflower lemonade and ANY of the tacos The truffle mac and cheese with panko fried chicken was also perfections. Amazing service, 10/10 vibes and the food is hands down the best mexican i've had in london”

“The Boathouse Design Studio is a brilliant working hub sat on the Thames in a great historic building. The owners have done a great job making it an appealing and relaxed environment, and visitors are always impressed! Not to mention the Flying Cloud Cafe outside which is perfect for a coffee and a bite to eat with nice scenery.”

“Delightful place. Great menu, fantastic healthy food. Reasonably priced and well presented. Beautiful surroundings by the garden centre. Flawless service and they made sure my dog had a bowl of water to drink. Will come again!”

“Lovely views from a cafe across the rolling hills near Upper Warlingham Station. Very clean cafe and clearly a loved cafe. It was idilic to have a bit of breakfast in the sunny weather.”
