Top 30 Best Welcoming environment in West Wickham

“Absolutely the best barbers in the area. Can’t fault them. Very friendly and very polite. Highly recommend this place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“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”

“Wonderful and very helpful people. They've guided me through the set up of a tank, with sound and bespoke help you wouldn't get online. The fish and indeed all products are well looked after and there's a lot of choice. I got Harlequin Rasboras and Tetras, plus loads of plants... And thanks to great advice all thriving. And i'll be back for more very soon!”

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

“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.”

“My friend recommended the clinic's hypnotherapist, Lynda Martin, and I duly made appointment to see her. I've never had hypnotherapy before and felt apprehensive but I needn't have worried as Lynda is so warm and professional that I felt completely at ease. Moreover, The sessions with her helped me deal with my issues. I think about them differently now, which is life changing. I would not hesitate to recommend. Thank you.”

“I have had many treatments at katherine's for the past two years. I have radio frequency on a regular basis, eye lash lift and tint as well as mesotheapy. katherine is a lovely girl, extremely knowledgeable with tons of experience. Her treatment room is really relaxing , beautifully decorated and smells georgous. I totally recommend katherine she is amazing.”

“Excellent Pre-school. Really loving and caring staff. Could not recommend them enough”

“Wow, what a fantastic night. From weeks of rehearsals and gitters on the weekend of the big extravaganza that was the Spotlights production of 'The Wizard of Oz" I have to say what an amazing drama group Spotlights has been for my daughter. The show was fantastic. I also should say that she was more nervous about performing in the show that she was about doing her SATS! As someone who needed a little boost in the confidence department Spotlights has been transformational for my daughter. She loves every aspect of it with Drama and dance being her favorites and singing 'not so much' (even though I think she's got a great voice) but when it came to auditioning for her school play she wasn't scared to stand in front of the whole class and the year six teachers and do her thing. She knows how to project her voice so she is clear and can be heard at the back of the school hall without being scared and without mumbling - something you really notice with the other kids at school. That has such a knock on effect in real life. She's not afraid to put herself forward for things and speaks up more now. When she comes out of Spotlight sessions on a Saturday afternoon she is literally beaming. When I suggested she stops Spotlights when she moves to secondary school I just got 'the look'. That's not going to happen. She has more drive to become a better actor, dancer and singer to get bigger and better parts in the end of year show. Learning lines is becoming second nature and that has really helped her in school. The last word in this review really has to go to Faye and her team. My daughter really loves going to Spotlights and that is more down to the atmosphere during her time there than what she is actually doing. The praise and encouragement she gets each week from the teachers makes such a difference. You make a difference - more than you know. Thank you for all you do.”

“It was now under a new management with improved and reduced price”

“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'd been poling a few years before I started at Fearless pole, but had a break through COVID. I was really anxious to start a new class but Annabelle was so lovely and helped me find my confidence again! She's a great teacher and her classes are always great fun!”

“Great barber, new guy Simon is very talented did my beard and hair exactly how I wanted. I haven’t had a cut like this in ages! Highly recommend.”

“When I started here my back was painful all day every day, both top and bottom. After a great first session I felt my requirements were really listened to and had no hesitation in signing up. Dr Trishul has been absolutely fantastic with my care, as have all the staff at AVID. They have been a joy to deal with. Over the 4 months of treatment they have been friendly, professional and always had a smile on their faces. I can now walk with no pain, run more and most importantly be fully active with my young family finally”

“We have always received fantastic service at UK dry cleaning. Not only with dry cleaning, but also for shoe repairs - recent shoe repair was completed to an excellent level. We tried local cobblers, etc - but none were able to assist. UK dry cleaners were able to help and the outcome was exceptional. Highly recommended.”

“Sweet, modern/ised without losing its charm. Food good value and well prepared. Friendly staff.”

“All the staff at Manor Park Dental Practice are fantastic and always very helpful and accommodating. The front desk staff in particular Teresa go above an beyond to help. I regularly see Mr Rattan & Lauren King for check ups and hygienist appointments and cannot fault them. They are superb at what they do and I would never think about going anywhere else. Thank you.”

“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”

“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!”

“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.”

“A fantastic team, with first class service. I was looking for a new practice to register, and began by using the emergency service they offer, seen within an hour on a Sunday! I am usually very nervous visiting the dentist, but the team always made me feel at ease and explained everything thoroughly. I am a very happy patient, and I cannot recommend them enough.”

“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”
