“I invested in Bethan Gray's Brogue leather coffee table a number of years ago and admire it in my living room every day. Beautiful piece and top class workmanship.”

“I recently stumbled upon this gem, and I'm so glad I did. I actually spotted it from the bus, and it was easy to find from there. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was incredibly welcoming. The staff was not only friendly but also very knowledgeable, offering some top-notch recommendations that were right up my alley. I also really enjoyed the fantastic smoking lounge downstairs—it's the perfect spot to relax.”

“Great service, get all my jewellery from there and if I ever have an issue it’s always replaced :) highly suggest”

“Amazing tattoos done by Kerie! She is not only an incredible artist but also a wonderful person. Her studio is clean and tidy, and she maintains a highly professional demeanor throughout the process. I strongly recommend her to anyone looking for quality tattoo work.”

“Best Indian food I’ve experienced with best service Wish all Indian restaurants were like this, they always treat you with respect and deliver the best as i’ve been using this restaurant time to time over the period of 4 years ( and wish them the best )”

“A chefs perspective of ottos it could not get more French when you walk in your transported to France. The owner is a French as they come! I thought the goats cheese soufflé was one of the best starters I’ve ever had. The scallops were also as good as it gets. The service on the starters wasn’t the best they got our starters mixed up the front of house manager took our order so that was his bad the younger waiter had to take the embarrassment for it!. I did find the front of house manager abir all the place pacing up and down the restaurant looking quite bored at times but he is good with customer with his old school approach and jokes and he’s certainly knows what he’s doing. It was quiet that night so maybe that was the mistake and the pacing up and down. As for the rack of lamb the theatre was great but the lamb was as good as roar in my opinio. I forgot how rare the French cook meat. That ruined it for me and in my opinion English peolple think that is to under cooked the worst part was the fat had not been rendered down and was very raw and tough also the whole lamb was under seasoned and it needed some sort of peas maybe as a purea?! It ruined rhe meal for me I said to my sister I’ve only cooked a rack of lamb a few times so these guys should get it bang on cooking it most nights but they messed it up big time! They should ask how you want it cooked because once it’s been carved that’s it you will have to flash it in a pan which will ruin it to cook it more! execute the cooking right b4 you bring the theatre out I would say I have never had pomme soufflés b4 I wanted to get them to see what the hype is about they were exactly how they should be looks wise a work of art crafted by a mater of his trade! They are extremely hard to make so hats of ro the chef who did them for me sadly as I expected rhe flavour was not great just like a crisp with no seasoning the salt had not even stuck to them again all about the theatre but lacking in seasoning. They would be better served with some sort of Hollandaise or aioli not the jus. The Apple tart was to die for and the chocolate pot and the after dinner truffles were not very impressive . It’s a great restaurant I would not return I would say it’s the sort of place most people would only go once I would not say it’s worth the price tag for normal people anyway. I know my food and how hospitality runs so I like to leave an honest chefs review of restaurants. I would like to say the younger guys in the team were very professional and knew what they were doing shame they have to make up mistakes of others but it was an experience I wanted to show my sister a higher class of food and service and it did deliver just a shame rhe lamb was not right. Whej it came to the bill I was not willing to pay the 12.5% tip I wanted to tip what I thought it was worth they wanted £30 service charge well I put 10£ for it and of course like all fancy places and most places in general in london they make you feel bad for it and it can create a scene my £10 was a fair tip they shpuid of been happy with considering the service they had given me and tbh this bugs me about these places I’m not from the 1% my bill is already very expensive why embarrass me in front of other guests and my sister not all guests have endless amounts of money and don’t take it personally if people cannot pay the service charge it’s optional some people are hard up and save for a meal like this. Thanks to ottos for the experience it’s something I will not forgot the French know how to eat drink and live that’s for sure there food brings joy all round the globe they are very passionate people when it comes to hospitality.”

“Petra is an amazing host, really attentive and welcoming. Thanks for a lovely Xmas meal”

“Always had good quality food and service. Never had any issues.”

“I visited yesterday to shop for jewellery for my wedding, Clair was incredibly helpful and knew exactly what pieces to show me/suggest after making an effort to get to know me and my style, I was allowed to try on many pieces and Clair offered her opinion which was really helpful. It really was such a special moment and I can't thank Clair enough!”

“We tried this restaurant as we just moved to the area. What a pleasant surprise. The food was lovely, abundant and at a very reasonable price. We loved the atmosphere and the team is so welcoming. Excellent customer service, we felt pampered and at home. Much recommended.”

“We visited here for Afternoon Tea with Father Christmas. We were a large group of 10 (adults and children). The venue was beautifully decorated for the festive season. Food was delicious and offered alternatives for the vegetarians in our group. Joe Banana was the entertainer for the afternoon and he did not disappoint. The Father Christmas was very good. Plenty of activities for the children to keep them occupied. Would definitely return.”

“We had amazing shopping experience at store.. Farhat was very helpful and patient with us and served us very well.”

“I went into store this morning and had the pleasure of Hannah helping me and my Incredibly “over shopping” 4 year old. She was engaging, helpful, patient and genuinely lovely to hang out with ten mins while we figured out what we were doing. Thanks Hannah x”

“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!”

“Best jewelry store and customer service. They really care and made my dreams come true. Thank You!”

“Lovely staff member i was served by today i caught her nametag Sophie. I believe she was new but she was super super kind and made our experience so warming and personal, enough for me to ask her opinion on choosing my ring! Also a shoutout to the man who seemed to be training her and helping her on the till he was really friendly himself and seemed to really be genuinely caring to helping her learn. Was lovely x.”

“Tasty food, ordering on website was easy, delivery wasn't too long, paid by card when delivered which was handy, menu selection was good. I would order again.”

“Really loved it here, new restaurant on boardwalk in Lakeside, was on the way to Wagamama but saw this and walked in. Service, Food and drink along with the restaurant and location are nearly faultless, or they were for our visit. Good bits Cocktails: honey bee and rum crumble delicious Starters: Lobster bonbons and King prawn and Lobster bites dish, presented beautifully and delicious, was piping hot also Mains: Ramen broth with sirloin, spicy and interesting, better than Wagamama (bit more expensive but worth it). Wagu burger with truffle fries, very hot and fresh, moist lovely texture Bad bits Am really being critical here and these are mentioned as to help the restaurant Glass stuck to table (I pretended to be a magician and two waitresses couldn't move it) table and / or glass obviously not clean and dried 100% Fantastic meal and visit, thanks very much was first meal out in a long time Good luck with this new venture and we will return soon Waitress spilled a bit of my cocktail”

“I went in there today to look for some jewellery and walked out with a new piercing, so so happy with my it and the service was amazing. I got served by a woman called Ellie and she was so amazing she was kind and very professional! I originally wanted a different ear piercing but she talked me through it and we both thought it would be better in a different part of my ear and I just think shes such an amazing and honest person. I’ll be coming back to get pierced by her very soon and so will my sister. Really good experience here x”

“Ordered on just eat, arrived on time pretty much. This Chinese seems a bit spicier and hotter than others, I quite liked it tbh. I’ll be eating from here again so I definitely recommend their food.”
