Destination experiences in Gravesend

“Loved Mitch K's acting as the doctor and him occationally appearing right behind us!”

“The staff were exceptionally quiet, attentive, and professional. They offered helpful suggestions that made our dining experience even better. Everything was perfectly served—truly appreciated!”

“Very rarely is the service anything other than quick. Friendly staff. Stock levels are usually very good here. It depends what you're after but out of around 20 visits I've only needed to order for next day collection in store once.”

“Absolutely amazing experience, I explained that I had only had my nails done Wednesday and they were so kind about it, advised me not to go back there because the acrylic was done to thin and they hadn’t applied anything right. A massive thank you to the lady that works there, I think she’s the owner, she made me feel so welcome, as I am autistic I struggle to go to new places and speak to new people but they were amazing and so understanding, had an amazing chat, so so happy with my nails, definitely going back”

“There Southern Fried chicken wings and chicken streaks are tasty, easy to cook in the air fryer with handy air fry instructions and parking easy with refund for parking fee of £1.”

“Girly's is a nice bouquet. There's plenty of nice smart clothes and outfits to choose from. There is always something to find.”

“Friendly staff, organised process, good quality on products sold”

“Very good barbers! They helped cut my hair and it looks so much better! The wet shave they offer is also very relaxing and the blade they use is sharp enough to cut through all that hair (I went with a clean shave and I dont think I saw a strand of hair left!) Keep up the good work! I think I'll have to keep coming here to get a good cut shave for a night out with the lads!”

“We used Popup Arcade for my sons 9th Birthday. We had 30 children and every single one had an amazing time. Out hosts were fantastic especially Nico who made sure all the kids were gaming and having a fun time. I’d definitely recommend using these guys for a gaming party.”

“Had my eyebrows tinted and waxed this morning by Kara and I’m over the moon ! Kara is an amazing beautician & has been over the past few appointments getting my eyebrows back to good condition & a better shape, after a previous beautician messed them up! Highly recommend. 5⭐️ treatment. Thank you so much Kara xx”

“THE 'DAWN' OF A GREAT HAIR-DAY - My financial circumstances changed therefore I could no longer afford to patronise the high-end, exclusive and expensive hair salon I used to. As all Ladies know, a 'good' hair-dresser is a necessity not a luxury because all of us want to look our best and having our hair looking its best not only enhances our entire 'look' but also gives us self-confidence and self-esteem which are both important for our mental and emotional health so the hunt was now on for me to find a local hair salon that I could afford on my very strict budget so I consulted Google Chrome for a five-star rated local salon and one came up which had five-star reviews on all their reviews and that impressed me and gave me confidence that my hair would be well taken care of and I was right. The Salon is: 'drum-roll'........ Dawn Claire Salon, 82 Parrock Road, Echo Square, Gravesend, Kent, DA12 1QF. I made my appointment and went last week and was immediately impressed by the location, decor and immediate attention and smile I got as soon as I stepped in from a lovely Lady who ushered me in-to a beautifully stylish, contemporary and fully equipped salon. I was immediately checked regarding my name and appointment, offered refreshments and all the cordial, complementary enhancements politely and kindly which impressed me and put me at ease that I am in the right place. My hair got serviced on-time and that impressed me as I have been to salons in the past where you are kept waiting for ages after your appointment time. I was asked questions about my hair, what I wanted and my hair was examined too which told me that they were highly qualified professional hair-dressers and I was right! My hair was excellently dealt with professionally and no time was wasted and all the staff I came in-to contact with were professional, polite, friendly, kind and efficient and the atmosphere was organised with every-one working and working well as a team, controlled, relaxing and pleasant and the toilet area I used was squeaky clean which told me a lot about the very high standards there which I was further impressed with. When my hair was finished I was astounded and in shock because my hair was such a diabolical mess when I came in that I thought it was impossible to make any-thing of it so I am now their new Client for life and with all honestly the high-end expensive salon I used to go to comes second to this one!! I can-not recommend them highly enough to every woman who cares about her appearance and wants to look the very best she can at any age and stage of her life as I do and the 'icing-on-the-cake' is that on my budget, I can afford it!!”

“Excellent service and really good and helpful staff.”

“Took my daughter here today and I can’t thank them enough she had the best experience, the man and lady that did her ear piercing was so lovely and put my daughter at complete ease and her ear piercings are perfect Would highly recommended them to anyone My daughter and me couldn’t be happier”

“Been using Sparks for over 30 years. Brilliant place for professionals and diy. Get everything you need in one place with knowledgeable and helpful staff. Wood cut to size if needed and tools and equipment available. Deliveries locally incredibly cheap. Highly recommended. We need to use places like this rather than the diy supermarkets that make huge profit on things like small packets of screws and nuts and bolts. Try them for yourself!”

“Another great meal at Bartellas. Love this place! We ordered some olives which were delicious and a generous portion and a bottle of Picpoul de Pinet which was excellent. I had a lunch of chicken saltimbocca with mushroom sauce and garlic potatoes, my friend had an amazing burger and we shared a side of spinach. We had tea and coffee afterwards. The staff are excellent as was the service and friendliness of our fabulous waitress, Vendi. Well done team!”

“So we were looking for a nice restaurant to celebrate my wife's birthday, with our two kids. My wife is a lover of seafood so found really positive reviews for The Boys Italian Seafood Restaurant. It's hidden away down Queen Street in Gravesend - a quiet area of the town close to parking. OMG - this is heaven if you, like my missus, love all foods that come out of an ocean or river. What can I say. Great food (couldn't fault anything at all), very good service, very friendly family run business, reasonably priced too. They specifically made a fresh pizza for our three year old son (it was delicious by the way). If you, like us, love seafood....or if you want to grab a freshly made true Italian pizza, then I'd recommend The Boys anytime. We're so impressed we will be going back real soon.”

“Great salon to have your hair done with excellent service and experienced stylist. Highly recommend.”

“Always go here for my full body massages! Always very professional and I come out refreshed feeling as light as a feather! Definitely recommend.”

“Hidden gem, traditional Indian dishes, the best tandoori chicken, tasty curried lamb and the most amazing naan bread. Reasonable prices and attentive service. Highly recommended”

“Staff are fabulous, Andrew McKay top man”

“Great spacious room, deeply clean, extremely quiet (only 4 rooms), definitely efficient double glazed windows. Hot shower, comfy bed and all new from carpet to linen and towels. The owner ROB and one of the cleaner went the super extra mile to look for my lost AirPods. They even looked in the laundry rooms and he was even willing to look in the big communal bins. What a legend!!!! Thx again x Lovely also the friendly lady (maybe an other owner) who checkout us out even if passed the time, as late. There are property meeting down the pub for Samuel Leeds inner circle. Definitely, this place will be always on our list for the guests or speakers.”

“Food was quality burgers were delish! Best dirty Fries I’ve had Much much better than five guys! Beer was ice cold! What more could you want”

“Been going here for years, lovely food, good prices and quick service. Polite staff too.”

“Just had a lovely young lady called Kat, go out of her way to check the stockroom for some items not on the shelf. She was fast efficient and friendly. Thanks to her we'll be having a lovely JD tonight.”

“We went to this Restaurant for my Dad's 50th (he was 49 at the time) the food was great and there was nice music and the service was great the waitresses are very friendly to all of us there was 21 of us in a big family but I do highly recommend this for birthdays and anniversary's!”

“Great hair cut for my 11 year old. Nice friendly staff, reasonable prices”

“Really good fun! Interesting concept whether you have knowledge in music or not. Great hosts who are more than happy to assist if you need it. Just to be aware that the location of it can be a puzzle itself so if you’re not aware of the area, look on their website for instructions as the map does not take you directly to the unit. Looking forward to the next room in progress!”

“We booked our holiday with them, they organised hotels, flights and transfers. Very satisfied with the service and prices quoted”

“We at Godalming & Farncombe bowling club recently bought a set of ditch mats. The company was very easy to deal with, honest & straight forward. Goods arrived when they said they would. Would certainly recommend them & use them again.”
