Decorating in Grays

“I walked in here for the first time in 9 years and it had changed drastically, in a positive way. I was greeted with smiles which instantly lifted my mood. I came in here for the pool, which I must say, is the best pool table I’ve played on, immaculate. The service was second to none, and il be coming back.”

“Great shop with great staff! Was super helpful to get what I wanted! Great shopping experience!”

“My partner and I were in the area, and looking for a full English breakfast. We found it! This place is fantastic: good quality food at very reasonable prices; friendly staff; and a welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely visit again if I'm in the area.”

“You can’t go wrong with IKEA! Also really great to just arrive there and have a ridiculously cheap breakfast before you walk around. I think it’s an absolutely wonderful idea and I hope they keep doing it for a long time. The place wasn’t too busy, even though it was a Sunday, and the checkouts were fast. It’s always an easy place to get around, and you always seem to find exactly what you want to fill in those little spots in the house.”

“Great Christmas shop nice staff..got all we needed”

“I do love wilko I always end up spending more than I intend to. They have such a wide range of items in here as it's quite a big one. Everything is neat and its easy to find items. The staff are helpful when you need something however, there never seems to be enough staff as I'm always looking around for one whenever I'm in there. The shop is super bright so it looks more spacious. I always find things I need in there.”

“We were served by Scott today and he was very friendly and helpful. My mum managed to get her curtains and cushions from the Thurrock store and we loved having a good look round all the departments. We also had a pot of tea in the cafe which was lovely. There’s so much to browse in store that we need a tea break! Dunelm is one of our favourite shops and we always head there first for beautiful quality housewares.”

“A very clean and nice store, everything is well stocked and they have a wide range of products.”

“My favourite home store! I bought a dinner plate set but when I opened the box at home one of the plates was completely cracked. I came back the next day and exchanged them with no hassle and the staff were very helpful”

“We were seated fairly quick even with the normal Friday rush. And plush we had our little one and push. Got seats which had plenty of space for all of us. Food came quick and friendly helpful staff. Easy to order via the app or online so no need to wait in the queue to order food.”

“Visited the lakeside store on 22/4/25 in the evening to purchase a suit, required some assistance to find a specific size. While unfortunately unable to find the particular size jacket (in this and 3 other stores), the assistance provided by Natasha to try and help was above and beyond. A credit to your store, she was very helpful and professional.”

“Highly recommend!!! I had my bridal shower here, a party of 10, and the staff were very catering to our needs, allowed my friends to set up early before I arrived and helped with the tidy up of our own stuff as we left. They allowed us to take our time and enjoy the party, even past closing hours for them. Decor is up to date and modern. Food was fantastic (we had the afternoon teas). Overall great experience and will defo be coming again to bring more family and friends in the future, definitely worth the trip!”

“I sent my clients to this showroom for the first time and Jamie was super helpful. My clients were very happy with the level of service he offered. Nothing was too much trouble. Thanks Jamie!”

“Amazing food and fantastic staff. Went above and beyond for my son in law who got chilli in his eye and took him to clean it out with an eye bath. Will definitely be going back”

“My favourite furniture shop in the UK! Good quality furniture at great prices. Our whole hone is furnished from here!”

“Kim was A* I've been to this store many times & the smile service friendliness above & beyond all the staff in the store big thank you for your help and support”

“Donna was fantastic, she helped us choose and design our dream kitchen. She is obviously very experienced and knows her stuff. She wasn't pushy and has a great personality. We are really pleased with the quality of the units and service provided. Would highly recommend! Thank you Donna!”

“Excellent company, all staff are really friendly and can't do enough for you. Good for trade or personal business. Credit facility offered.”

“Really nice helpful staff. Got just the sofa I needed for £4 a week”

“I had a good experience buying my bedroom furniture with the help of Ghalib Rahman (Iby). From the first meeting during the measure-up, he was friendly, attentive, and mindful of my budget. He wasn’t a pushy salesman which I appreciated. He understood that I wanted the room to look good but also be practical, and he worked perfectly within that. Iby kept me updated all the way through and even helped expedite the delivery. The delivery team were also great — friendly, efficient, and got everything safely up to the first floor. The charter pack was a real help when it came to fitting. The after-sales team were equally good and helped me resolve a small issue quickly and without any hassle. Overall, recommended.”

“Helpful, obliging, not particularly expensive. Also repair electrical appliances at a reasonable cost. Sorry they moved from grays to South Ockendon as they were only a 10 minute walk from where I live. If what you want isn't in stock they will order it for you. A friend of mine had a new hob supplied and fitted, and highly recommends them”

“Came to collect a sofa and needed help getting it into my car but thank god for Joe Cann who stayed past his hours to help me out!”

“Give David a raise!!!!! His service was phenomenal and extremely quick. He was polite, friendly, and very helpful when helping me receive a replacement pair of headphones as well as helping me become a nectar card user. I don't usually leave reviews but David's service was just to amazing that I had to leave one!!! 5 stars is an understatement for his amazing work. THANK YOU DAVID!!!!”

“I really like meat balls and mashed potatoes here. Delicious and cheap. Deserts are good. But less meal selections. Good place to have lunch during the ikea shopping. Heavily crowded, but you will find a place to sit as there is enough space.”

“I'm sure other people have had bad experiences but honestly I couldn't fault our experience with Fabb Lakeside at all. The sales rep (can't remember name, sorry!! Lady with a Brummy accent?!) was so polite and friendly and definitely not at all pushy. We came back twice really unsure whether to go ahead and buy the sofa but at no point at all felt pressured.. in fact it was totally relaxed. She was very helpful when we had questions. We were told about 6 weeks which seemed very good for a large corner suite and would have been satisfied even if it took a little longer but 6 weeks after purchasing we got our call to say it's ready for delivery. Delivery was quick and tidy, they took all the rubbish with them. Genuinely couldn't fault a single step in the process. Maybe we were the lucky ones but considering we're super happy with our sofa and it was about £1000 cheaper than similar sofas elsewhere, I'd still say to consider this place!”

“Visited the cafe today for lunch, staff are very pleasant and helpful. Food reasonably priced will be back soon.”
