Refresh in West Wickham

“They do a wide selection of dishes for lunch, the toasted sandwiches are very nice. It’s £6.75 for a sandwich which is on the expensive side but very filling. Atmosphere is good, this place is clean and the service is good”

“Down to earth, good old fashioned proper pub. Staff beyond friendly. Prices great. Lovely food. No frills but does what it says on the tin. Relaxed and clean environment. Highly recommended.”

“Emailed surgery at 0700 wanting an antibiotic earspray repeat prescription as going on holiday in a few days and no time for appointment. Dr Donya Young emailed me back in afternoon saying ready for collection! Saved me a painful holiday. Excellent service. Very grateful.”

“I’ve used Crafty Barbers many times now and all the cutters, but mainly Elliot. Always had a good cut. Plus it’s a happy, pleasant environment. I use the online booking which works well. So - well done guys and keep it up, thanks.”

“I love this place I had my hair done by Sophie she was Amazing !! Great haircut. Will never be going anywhere else ! Everyone remarked about my hair and how lovely and shiny my hair was. I also had microdermabrasion with christalla I would defo recommend anyone who wants this treatment to get it done. It left my skin so clear and glowing. All staff are professional and very friendly and make you feel very welcome. Thank you agin to all the staff at beautiful you ✨✨⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“What can i say.. I have been going to Brid’s since it opened 3 years ago and I can honestly say i’d never choose anywhere else. Brid has always done my lashes and is honestly AMAZING and does them perfect every time. Overall the salon is BEAUTIFUL, all the girls are so lovely, caring and friendly and its such a nice atmosphere from the start to the end of any treatments.”

“Absolutely stunning space, every pamper treatment you could wish for all in one salon. The moment you walk through the doors, your well looked after by the attentive staff. Every visit I’ve left feeling special! ✨”

“Great barbers. Whenever I go I receive wonderful haircut. Highly recommended…”

“I've used whiteleys on many occasions and have always had great service. Very helpful staff.”

“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!”

“I go to Parkside for my general dentistry and have had my teeth whitened. I've been very pleased with each experience and treatment received. I noticed during my last visit that they now offer facial aesthetics too which I'd feel safe having done there as Dr Sehmi and his team are all very kind, caring and professional. The practice has parking out front which is very convenient and there's a lovely, relaxing waiting area with a view out to a beautiful garden - what more could you want?”

“Amazing salon!! After going to 3 different salons this one was a game changer! Katie transformed my hair from a brassy bronze tone which was from salon dyed and box dyes to a gorgeous blonde balayage. Could never go anywhere else!!”

“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.”

“Absolutely lovely salon. Could not recommend them enough . Always very helpful and professional, accommodating and very reasonably priced . The staff and owners are treating everyone like family always pleasant and chatty. 5 ⭐️”

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

“There is always a warm, friendly, cheerful welcome at Feel Good Cafe. The coffee is first class and the vegetarian Panini are excellent. It takes strong willpower to resist the wonderful cakes. An all-round excellent, independent venue; we recommend it highly. Martin & Hester.”

“I have been getting my eyebrows waxed and tinted in Options. I am so happy with the shape and tint on my brows. The girls are so lovely. They are always so professional and go out of their way to accommodate me with appointments. Always a pleasant experience. I couldn’t recommend Options highly enough.”

“Went in west wickham today and Scarlett/Charlotte made me feel like a new woman after Avin a dodgy hair cut somewhere else This is now my new salon xxx”

“Went to this nail salon today based on its good reviews. I was not disappointed. I had a maniure and pedicure and Vicky did a great job and made my hands and feet look very presentable:) All the staff were very helpful and friendly, and i shall definitely be going back as a regular. I would definitely recommend this nail salon based on my experience today.”

“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!”
