Destination in Kingston Upon Thames

“Is such a shame Porters don't own year- round and all fruit and veg any more. ... but they still keep a great selection of plants seasonally, and always with a smile and good advice if you need assistance with your purchases.”

“Kevin and his son Adam are the best. Did an immaculate job with my kitchen 9 years ago and never had any problems. Recently had a faulty hinge and no questions asked they replaced it for free after 9 years! Best service ever. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough, still get lots of compliments for our kitchen especially the custom built floor to ceiling cabinets!!”

“I recently finished booking an Africa experience with Yellow Zebra for early 2027. Sebastian, our Yellow Zebra Safari Specialist, put together a variety of options for review after listening to our wants and needs. Based on his first hand knowledge and experience, he guided us through developing and finalizing a once in a lifetime private tour for our group of 8. The tour includes time in Cape Town, Victoria Falls and 3 different safaris. During the non-pressured planning process, Sebasian was in constant communication with us and very responsive to any inquiries. Once booked, we were seamlessly introduced to Kristen from the Yellow Zebra’s Operation Team. Kristen was very helpful in finalizing the details of our trip and will support us during the trip. Sebastian still remained our main contact for any further pre-trip planning. The great service Yellow Zebra has provided, makes me very confident that we are going to have an awesome trip.”

“This was my first time getting a tattoo, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the consultation to the actual appointment, everything at True Tattoo was amazing. As soon as I walked in, everyone was super friendly and welcoming. Vil was awesome — really talented, professional, and easy to talk to. I absolutely love how my tattoo turned out and can’t wait to go back to finish the rest. I’d highly recommend True Tattoo to anyone, especially if it’s your first time getting inked!”

“Ordered this evening for the first time and wow, even my partner who is Italian agrees it’s one of the best we’ve ever tasted”

“One of the best boutique cafe in Hampton Wick (South West London). The Barista is very attentive to detail.Superb desserts, delicious homemade savory food, sandwiches, including vegan options. The homemade soups are great especially in cold days and is a great alternative. Stylish interior. Nice staff. The lady "Simona" is very friendly and she makes everyone feel welcome. When shopping in nearby Kingston Upon Thames, we always go to this cafe.If you are tired of the big branded coffee shops and you want to have a really good coffee, this is the place for you!”

“Lovely piece of Portugal in Kingston. Delicious food, coffee with great friendly service. Well stocked wine "library". I asked for a recommendation for a medium priced red wine to accompany a steak dinner. It wasn't too much trouble for the owner to recommend from the wide offerings, which was much appreciated.”

“This place is under new management and is truly changed for the better, the new rotund boss has made some brilliant changes. Tom who resembles the jolly round butcher we all grew up with, has rebranded as a ‘Tea and sausage sandwich emporium’. You can come and enjoy your pot of lapsang suchong and bacon sarnie until late afternoon. The colourful range of local clientele also makes each visit similar to a visit to the zoo! Well worth a visit! Honestly the only coffee shop in town that is worth frequenting!”

“5 Stars – Incredible Massage Experience I had an amazing massage and honestly, it was one of the best I’ve ever had. The therapist was professional, attentive, and made the whole experience relaxing from start to finish. The pressure was perfect – firm enough to release all the knots, but still soothing. What impressed me the most was the technique and knowledge of the body. It wasn’t just a routine massage – it felt personalised and therapeutic. I left feeling completely relaxed, lighter, and pain-free. If you’re looking for someone who truly knows what they’re doing and makes you feel comfortable throughout the session, I highly recommend booking. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“I sawJade today , very nice clean calm environment . I enjoyed my treatments thank you Jade .”

“I had a botox treatment here for my damaged hair yesterday, and the result was amazing! My hair is now soft, shiny, and healthy. The team was incredibly kind, professional, and friendly. I’m beyond satisfied with their service and care — I’ll definitely keep coming here and highly recommend them!”

“Luciano knows how to cut curly hair very well. He listened to what I needed and then allowed me to relax quietly during my cut, which I really appreciated. A great haircut, I will return for the next one!”

“Had an amazing experience at the barbershop today. The owner is super friendly and has such a bright, welcoming personality. The attention to detail was next level - I walked out feeling fresh and looking sharp. Highly recommend this spot if you want great vibes and a perfect cut!”

“Lucy was so kind and helpful! Her honest advice really made a difference when we were choosing our sofa for the lounge. The order even arrived earlier than the estimated lead time, which was a lovely surprise. We’re very happy with our purchase and have just returned to the store to order more furniture for other rooms — and we were delighted to be assisted by Lucy again!”

“Had an amazing experience with Gibson Lane. Ben Jennings was incredibly helpful in finding us the perfect house to rent that met all our requirements. Throughout the entire renting process, he supported us and helped us secure the property just in time, despite a few challenges along the way. The team is professional, responsive, and really good at what they do. Highly recommend Gibson Lane!”

“Honestly hands down for another GREAT roast I’ve had in England. And the fact I got a table on the day was even more surprising. The pudding it’s the best I had so far!!! I can’t thank enough to the staff politeness.”

“Great customer service . The girls went out of their way to help us and we were delighted with our purchases . It made our day as we had such bad customer service in other shops including John Lewis !”

“Went in to get a suit and after a brief discussion of what I wanted the gentleman went and fetched a suit without measuring me or asking my size. It was nearly a perfect fit, just needed the leg length taking up a little bit. Polite, attentive, and very professional. Wonderful customer service.”

“Hands down best coffee in Kingston. Lovely and friendly staff and efficient service, even on a very busy Sunday. Toastie was delightful! Would recommend!”

“Deserves more than 5 stars, the whole process even for someone who's never been to a hairdresser was relaxing and stress free. I enjoyed each step of the braiding process and time went on by so quickly that my hair was already looking perfect and natural after a nice friendly conversation. Not to mention within one day I was able to get my hair type and colour extension! I totally hidden gem of Kingston. Very friendly, would recommend to anyone!”

“Kat has been cutting and colouring my hair for years now - definitely recommend her! I rely on her advice a lot. The salon staff are always welcoming and helpful, even when it’s super busy.”

“Today was my third appointment with Marialla. Had keratin treatment today with a trim. Good price, lovely classical music and pleasant conversation. Always a pleasant experience. Mariella is professional, creative and works around your schedule. After years of going to hairdressers I feel I have found a gem. I hope you find her too!”

“Fantastic service. The team were friendly, kind and professional. The haircuts were on pont. Exceptional blend and trim. Value for money for a high quality service.”

“A fantastic independent jewellers with exceptional customer service. Purchased a simply stunning vintage ring, even had the paperwork verifying the quality of the stone. The staff are friendly and highly knowledgeable. Cannot recondmend highly enough. A great shopping experience rather than using some characterless high street chain. Will definitely visit again.”

“We had a wonderful experience at To Kefi! The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. A special thank you to our waitress Romina, who was so sweet and kind — she looked after us and our two girls beautifully. She even arranged for the chef to make some pasta for our little one, which we really appreciated. Thanks also to the chef for going out of her way! Excellent service and lovely people — we’ll definitely be back!”
