Meeting in Hale

“Dr Ahmed has never failed to deliver. Recently a friend suggested I try elsewhere as it was much nearer to me and was slightly less money. I made the mistake of doing this and regretted it immediately. I like a natural look and left with a very shiny and hard to move forehead. I have now returned to Dr A and confessed to this! I realise that there is a definite art to this and Dr A knows exactly what he is doing. He listens and makes sure the client gets exactly what they want. Incredibly professional man who I would highly recommend.”

“I had the best experience with Hale Bowdon Dental and will not stop recommending them! I had composite bonding and whitening, the booking process was really quick and efficient and I received regular contact regarding my appointments and what's next. The dentist and all the staffs are so caring, efficient and professional. Definitely recommend!”

“We recently sold a family home in Hale (probate) - Peter and his team were especially sensitive to the situation, helped us tremendously with viewings and keeping us up to date with everything. They more or less managed the whole thing. They went over and above what you would expect from an agent, even putting out flowers to brighten up an otherwise empty house for viewings, and obtaining meter readings on our behalf. Best experience we have EVER had with an estate agent - thoroughly recommend. Its the personal touch that means so much. Thank you everyone.”

“Our very favourite curry takeaway kitchen, and we've tried many. They are takeaway only - not torn between serving in-house and takeaway customers, and it shows in the quality of the food and speed of service.”

“Although quieter than expected, who entered the Elk Bar had an excellent night all round..And with Vito the food bar other the road we have a winning combination for a great night out..”

“Great honest service, never feel like I am being ripped off like with many of the big players who always seem to say you need new breakers or tires....”

“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING Atmosphere, taste of food, service, price - everything was PERFECT . Look forward to my second visit”

“Really enjoyed our visit on a Sunday, managed to book online easily, parking was available. Staff were friendly and welcoming and the food came in a very reasonable time, great value and cooked to a very good standard. The children's menu offered choice and well-sized portions. Highly recommended!”

“Firstly I think it’s important to note this is a cafe that is connected to a family support centre and counselling service. It’s cheap and it is supposed to be somewhere accessible for people who access the services next door, as well as for anybody who uses the park. I actually came here not because of this but because I had attended a baby class in the adjoining room, so my friend and I had coffee and cake here. It’s a great little place, so cheap and the staff are friendly too. There’s a seating area outside as well for warmer days. It’s a lovely little cafe if you’ve had a walk in the park or want to meet a friend with your little ones. They also offer a range of food and I’ve-cream in summer, but we always went primarily for coffee and cake, both of which were always spot on. We used to go here every week after baby classes, and will continue to do so after Covid. This cafe definitely deserves our support so that it stays open in the future.”

“Since the first day my daughter started at Hale Day Nursery, she has thrived and loved every moment. She’s seamlessly moved from one room to the next, receiving the same level of care and attention by each member of staff, who deliver learning and development in a fresh and forward-thinking way - one that engages and stretches the children. I can’t recommend the nursery enough.”

“Writing this whilst my pup Bruno is fast asleep upstairs after another great weekend spent with Megan. I’ve used Megan a few times to look after Bruno and never worry a single bit when he is there. She looks after him like one of her own! She’s so easy to deal with and she keeps you updated and sends you loads of great pictures! If you’re reading this you may be considering using Meg and Hale wags…You won’t be disappointed!”

“Did a drainage job ere unblocked the toilets”

“For local residents: the pharmacy located at Shay Lane Medical Centre is now closed, and it appears to have relocated where Lloyds Pharmacy used to be on Hale Road, opposite Booths (it's the same staff, and you can still get your repeat prescriptions arranged through them). The opening times are unfortunately not as generous as the previous ones, when adjacent to the medical centre: I often thought that it never closed!”

“My daughter has improved greatly in her speech, her eating and her overall development and I have to say it's mostly thanks to the kind and sweet staff at kids planet... I have had a great experience and would recommend anyone to go here...”

“Manjunath is a miracle worker! I have been experiencing pain in my right shoulder for months. Had been to another physio with no success. In just one visit with Manjunath, he reduced the pain and I experienced much more, pain free, movement in my shoulder. He is thorough, explained everything to me about my problem and knew exactly where to work and how to work on it. Cannot recommend him and his team highly enough!!!”

“Peter provided a timely and courteous service. His work was both professional and of the highest quality and not hesitate to recommend. Would not go anywhere else in the future for oven cleaning”

“I have been going to re-enhance and have been seeing Martin for around 5 years and couldn’t be happier with my results. He is amazing at what he does and I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else for my Botox and Dermal fillers. Every time I am complimented on my skin, my cheek bones and jaw line it gives me reassurance that Martin is the only doctor I would want to work on my face. I highly recommend him to all my friends and family and want to thank him for his amazing work on my face, his friendly persona and for always making me feel at ease. He’s for sure the reason no one believes I’m nearly 40!”

“I had a great experience with John. He was a very nice person, very professional and excellent too. He notarized a document for me to use in the embassy. I highly recommend John to anybody.”

“You guys are awesome! A year ago when I started my new business I was really worried and, to be quite frank, a bit daunted by accounts and tax. I need not have worried as KMA have made it an absolute breeze. You’ve done everything for me, even the bookkeeping and VAT, which has meant I’ve been able to put all my time and energy into the business and looking after my customers. Everyone in the team is super helpful and friendly - nothing is too much trouble. My first annual meeting was great too. Having gone through the accounts and tax (which I now understand) what I appreciated was David taking the time to discuss my goals for the year and work/life balance with me. Having a different perspective and some practical advice from David on this was fabulous and I know the next 12 months will be better as a result. I didn’t expect to have that conversation BUT it showed that I have an accountant who is on my side and who really cares for me. Alistair Davidson Davidson Media Services Ltd”

“This is a brilliant salon. Billy and the team are fantastic and after years of trying to find a hairdresser I can trust and like, I have been coming here for 2+ years and wouldn't consider going anywhere else. Nicole is a brilliant colourist too - can't recommend highly enough!”

“Just want to say what a great experience and fantastic result with these guys. Ryan Gordon started the process and helped me decide to go ahead with Access2Funding. Samuel Lobb was my writer and listened to me for a few hours (well done!). He did all the work for me which was ace. All I had to do was share a few statistics about our business and people and what we have been doing under the R&D umbrella. Blown away by how easy they made the entire process. Will definitely recommend these guys to my supply chain and clients. Thanks again from the team here at XIC.”

“You book a 15 minute slot and he does a fast and very decent repair for a good price - brilliant. Used for 2 repairs already! Only thing I’d say is not to bother with the screen protector as it makes your touchscreen very unresponsive so ended up having to remove it.”

“Popped in to use the bar as we were waiting for teens to finish a birthday meal across the road. There was nowhere open to grab a coffee at 6.30pm on a snowy December eve. Although we were not dining in we were welcomed as any guest and the service was excellent even if it was for only 2 coffees and a beer. We are looking forward to coming back for a meal soon. Thankyou.”

“Esther is excellent in what she does. Reasonable prices for hale also. They don't inflate the prices like some.. Give them a ring you won't be disappointed”

“Food is consistently delicious, accommodate requests graciously, service is exceptional. Highly recommend.”

“Fabulous little find. We were staying at a an airport hotel and had a drive into Hale for something to eat . Pie was Great north pies £6 absolute steal for this fabulous food x”
