Flavors in Beckenham

“Great new place just opened. Italian bites & cocktails, cool decor. Pasta was home cooked & tasted great. Long Island ice tea was mixed the way it should be... About time we had a cocktail bar worth visiting.”

“Novi is the BEST espresso room / coffee shop in the ‘Nam without exception. It’s the warmth of the welcome as much as it is the delights within!”

“Top Award Staying Open Later than Tesco.”

“Great service, fantastic food and a nice welcoming atmosphere. We eat in and have takeaways regularly from here for many years and there is never an issue at all !”

“Absolutely fantastic food at miso everytime. Always Fresh, and good sized portions. Staff always friendly. I also left my wallet there on a previous visit and the man drove to my house to return it! Can you ask for better service than that?! I would recommend miso time and time again, it's been my go-to for years you won't regret it. Thanks again guys!!”

“Always an excellent meal. I had chicken dupiaza and my wife had a vegetable curry main dish. We shared a special rice and a paratha. Delicious meal and excellent staff. I highly recommend, ten out of ten.”

“We have been ordering from Indian Ocean for years and unfortunately we have moved out of the area no but would still order when we go back to the area. Never dissapointed with the food here, I'm half Indian so always have high expectations. We have tried a lot off the menu, all good. Generally order the prawn puree (the stopped doing it with king prawns a long time ago but still good),lamb dish and Korma which I'm not a fan off but tastes good here. Good flavours, not too spicy and not bland. The prices have always been good and so has the service. You always get a random bonus dish for free- the bombay potatoes are great! I look forward to when I am back in the area.”

“The creamiest, most succulent pasta in the south east. Just don’t order the vegan dishes - as they are more flavourless than water I think it was just an unlucky experience, so I’ll be the bigger person and look beyond this unfortunate experience. 5* otherwise”

“Absolutely love this place. Food is so good and the staff are friendly, efficient and chatty. The cafe always feels clean and always has great atmosphere. Will continue to return and recommend! Best independently run cafe in the area.”

“Great pub, fantastic atmosphere PS they don't do food, but their sister pub The Chancery (next door) does an excellent menu!”

“What a find, beautiful food and brilliant service. We had two serving choices for each of us and it was the perfect meal size. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. Simply brilliant food, amazing taste.”

“Just like a previous reviewer, I’ve walked past this place so many times. So glad I finally came in, brought my son, and we had a delicious meal. Guys inside are lovely, service is great, and the food was tasty and well priced. 110 percent recommended, we will be back!”

“Had superb vegetarian focaccia (mozzarella, sun-dried tomato, aubergine, olives). Cooked to perfection, crispy outside, melty inside. Generous portion and very reasonable prices. They also sell authentic Italian products - pasta, oils, pasta sauces. Also delicious looking cakes, which I didn't try, as focaccia was substantial! Friendly, helpful staff.”

“We used Branching out for funeral flowers. The staff were so welcoming and helpful. We had some unusual ideas and they listened and gave advice and the drinks while we deliberated were very welcome! On they day of the funeral were were absolutely delighted with the flowers. They were beautifully arranged, vibrant and just what we imagined. They really brightened a very sad day for us. Thank you so much.”

“Absolutely a lovely experience to dine here! The restaurant is really beautiful and well thought out. The service is excellent, particularly the manager (Ayhan I believe)was so lovely. The food is so good too.”

“This is the only restaurant we use for a curry. The food is amazing with good portions, staff are very friendly and the restaurant is nicely decorated. We are having a takeaway this Saturday and I can’t wait. Highly recommended”

“We visited Yammas Greek Restaurant on Monday 15/12/2025 to celebrate a friend’s birthday, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was excellent – fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. Every dish we tried was delicious and clearly made with care. The service was outstanding. The staff were welcoming, attentive, and made us feel very well looked after, which made the celebration even more special. A perfect place for birthdays and special occasions. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be coming back. Thank you for such a lovely evening!”

“Wonderful and authentic family run Thai restaurant, the owner is very welcoming and charming with his service. The food is delicious and very reasonably priced, I'll definitely be going back! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.”

“Went today this Deli today to get the lovely Italian ham they have which is very tasty. The Deli was quite busy and I they clearly needed another member of the team to help although the lovely lady who served me was so professional and polite. She stayed calm under pressure from people that definitely should be more polite. (Be kind) Manners cost nothing. Well done to Kaley:)”

“Thank you to the lovely M&S staff member who sorted out my returns parcel when I had messed up the paperwork and the packaging! Your help was so much appreciated. I’ll know what to do next time.”

“Friendly and flexible service with a simple but tasty selection of food. Their soup 9f the day and vegetarian wrap proved very palatable. We even received an extra slice of rather good brown bread on the house.”
