Unique london attractions in Dartford

“Whilst Central Park is closed for the night, this outdoor theatre comes alive. So if are travelling by car, don't forget to park in the Acacia Hall car park, and not Central Park car park as it will close before the show ends As an outdoor Theatre the overall experience depends more on the weather than the performers, but I must say I've been impressed with both. There are very nice toilets here, being so new and well equipped, but I suspect the ladies are too small for the venue, especially when filled to capacity. The stage is well lit, but it is little more than a raised platform so don't expect West End production values. As there is no seating plan, anyone with a mobility or visual disability may find it easier to arrive later and take up a front row or side position that facilitates a quick and easy exit. Also I'd recommend brining a small picnic, as there are no interval ice cream or drink options here. Best of all was the low ticket price for a high quality show.”

“I have been attending Barry's weekly ukulele group at the Orchard Theatre, Dartford for about 6 months now and, I must say, his teaching and coaching is superb. I have played guitar for a number of years and thought I knew music but Barry has taught me SO much more. Excellent!”

“They are well prepared and as safe as can be in this covid world. Cleanliness a priority. The stylists are friendly and helpful. A good positive experience”

“It's our local kebab shop but it is our favourite. Food is always beautifully cooked and delious. Portions are generously sized. Only critism is they don't take card so always need cash with you.”

“Great atmosphere and very friendly service. Hair cut is great, it looks so much better and even though Mark was running late, he took his time and it shows. Very happy”

“What a lovely tea room. Ate in there today and the food was delicious as normal. Cakes are amazing too! Staff are really friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend this place to eat.”

“We were visiting from Texas and my mother in law planned a trip here because my 7 year old son is obsessed with Birds of Prey. This was one of the most amazing experiences we had while in England and life long memories my son will have. The grounds are immaculately kept up, the birds and all animals are well taken care of. They have meerkats, pigs, goats, lambs, and huskies along with so many birds. The bird experience was amazing and watching their keepers explain in detail about each one made it incredibly fascinating. We will visit again in the future 1000%. There is a little playground on site and plenty of parking space available. Also the drive to the Eagle Heights is a breathtakingly beautiful one. Gorgeous views and it is close to a small little village like town.”

“Great service and value. Delicious Indian twist to the ‘bubble’.”

“This place is one of our favourite local spots! The quality of the food here is second to none for anything in the area. It is very well priced, well stocked and the staff are great! If you are ever looking for a bite, the dirty goujons or the kebab are superb and they offer a wide range of sandwiches which you can customise to your preference. Regularly eat here and will be a continued customer.”

“A perfect place for a pint or two. Good beer well kept.”

“Must be my 10th visit to the lads at Stone Barbers, I'm always happy with the service I get. Proper traditional barbering services, including hot towels and wet shaves.”

“Lovely little walk around the lake at the back of Bluewater. Wished I had known about it when my daughter was younger. "The very hungry caterpillar" trail to follow, answering questions along the way. Fact boards dotted about the trail with info on different wildlife around the site. Little wooden play area. Can feed the ducks/geese but signs say NO BREAD. Bird seed or defrosted peas is better. Will go again!”

“Great food, great coffee! friendly staff. Deffo be going back. Top notch ✌️”

“1st timer and really enjoyed it, highly recommended”

“Love it here, you have to be a member to enjoy the atmosphere, bar staff are very welcoming.. Love it here, everytime..”

“Just took the family to Pirate Cove Adventure Cove and adopted the Crafty Wizards Pre-School attitude of "yes I can!", the holes are fun, some more challenging than others! Not too far down the A2 from our pre-schools. Give it a go for a fun, outdoor, creative themed crazy golf session! The quad bikes are fun too.”

“Top quality cafe, great food, reasonably priced and helpful and friendly owner and staff. Perfect cafe. Only used for a couple of days while in the area for a wedding but would use this gem of a place all the time if local.”

“Food is always hot and of the highest quality. It does get bit busy but normally you can find seats fairly quickly. A lovely place to chill out for a while.”

“The odd fellows is the most friendliness pub in Dartford best beer always live music”

“Great traditional pub with real ales. Darts, Football on 3 screens. Pop in for a pint. Always get a friendly welcome and good Beer”

“An amazing cinema with a great viewing experience. It boasts a massive range of screens with a good handful being IMAX. The drinks are refillable and quite cheap. All seats in EVERY screen are reclining and tickets do not cost much, and cost less on certain days. Altogether an amazing cinema.”

“Free ample parking. Nice combination of well maintained main routes as well as narrow footpaths to immerse in nature. A hidden isolated spot if you look for it”

“Was utterly an amazing store. Staff were very impressing. Highly recommended.”

“Arthur and his wonderful team saved us tonight when our Christmas party was cancelled elsewhere. They pulled out all the stops....service was impeccable, food amazing and all for such a reasonable price. Highly recommend a visit.”

“Always helpful, have been using Virgin since it's start and would use no one else.”

“Great service from Jasper as always. I have built up great rapport with Jasper in the last few years over a love for watches. I went in to the store to see if they had the Bremont Hawking edition and Jasper asked me if I knew much about the watch. He explained all the details to me and was so enthusiastic which was great! Everytime I go into the store Jasper remembers me which is a great feeling. Such a credit to the store! all other staff are friendly and helpful too.”

“Enjoyed a lovely veggie Sunday Roast, which was delicious and cooked to perfection. They also had 0 alcohol Gin, which not many places have. Great setting and friendly staff, would recommend!”

“First time here and we were so impressed with both the food and service. Location is stunning and we took a walk around the lake afterwards. We had the calamari to start with ravioli and chicken for the mains, both delicious. Highly recommend.”

“Had a lovely meal, the food and drinks arrived quickly after ordering. Most of the staff couldn't do enough to help you and make you feel welcome, especially Melissa, she is a real asset to the team. Melissa met us at the door and was so bubbly and inviting that I've had to mention her. So great there are healthier alternatives to the menu like the corn on the cob, and the new tenderstem broccoli as sides. Really great meal, and will be returning again soon. Keep up the great work guys x”
