Friends in Beckenham

“I always ask for a specifc style for my son, but most barbers don’t deliver. Ibrahim nailed it and everyone there was so lovely.”

“I was lucky enough to discover Louisa earlier in the year and have become a regular customer. She always gives me a super,easy to manage cut. She is very personable and friendly,as are all the staff.A great little salon! Sandra Browne”

“Extremely professional, amazing service. I get my haircut at both stores Clock House and Bromley road. I have been coming here for a while now and commute from East London. Highly recommend coming to either store and getting your haircut done at IB’s and can assure it’ll turn out great!”

“I have been visiting Toolstation, Beckenham on a regular basis for nearly a year. It has become like a second home! Customer service is excellent and nothing is too much trouble. Items can be easily ordered, if not in stock and can be returned if not suitable. Michael Tasker served me today and has done on many previous occasions. He is a charming young man, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and goes out of his way to help. I was not rushed or made to feel a nuisance, especially when others were waiting. I am always treated with the utmost respect. I would also like to mention Ed, who has served me on many occasions in the past too. He has always been patient and helpful, especially when deciding which handles to choose as I was replacing all my internal door handles. It was no trouble for Ed to open several boxes of handles so I could make a decision. He also carried two huge tubs of Wallrock paste to my car, without hesitation. These two young men are a huge asset to Toolstation and I hope they will be rewarded for their excellent service. I have also been served by many other members of staff and all have given the same high standard of service. Well done guys and ladies! Thanks to all of you.”

“Great company, customer service is great they're all very helpful they're very fast reliable and professional I would highly recommend”

“Rizwan Ali at Leaders has now helped me sell two properties, and I am delighted with the results. Riz is highly accessible and responsive to queries, and has been supremely efficient both in chasing solicitors and in concluding sales. My enormous thanks, Frieda”

“The team at Langford Russell Beckenham are amazing. Kelly and Eddie managed to find us good buyers, quickly, in a tough market and were amazing at pushing the sale throuh across the whole chain. They were friendly, always responsive, and from what we heard and saw were honestly much better than the other local agents in our chain. If you want agents who make the whole process of selling in this country much much easier definitely give the team at Langford russell beckenham a ring.”

“Too the wife and daughter for her birthday, booked in advance on their website, which was easy, and got a confirmation same day. Saturday evening was very busy. The atmosphere was nice , the service was very good and the food was hot, fresh tastie and very filling , and they don't automatically add service charge to the bill”

“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!”

“I’ve been a loyal Daisy Grey customer since 2023, and in that time it’s become far more than just a coffee stop for me — it’s been a constant companion through every stage of my academic and professional life. The team is consistently warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming; they remember faces, orders, and even the little details that make you feel like part of the community. During my undergraduate degree, the outdoor heaters kept me company through countless study sessions. As a teacher, I found myself back here on early mornings, planning lessons with a cup of something extra hot (which they never fail to get just right). And the outdoor plug sockets? They witnessed the highs and lows of my master’s degree — drafts, deadlines, and all. The coffee is always delicious, reliably smooth, and prepared with care. Their pastries are just as unforgettable: the croissants are always fresh, warm, and perfectly flaky, and the banana bread is genuinely the best in town. The fact that the staff remember my regular extra-hot order says everything about the personal touch that sets Daisy Grey apart. I regularly drive an extra ten minutes from work, even on my shortest breaks, just to get a Daisy Grey coffee — it’s genuinely that worth it. Daisy Grey isn’t just a café; it’s been a backdrop to my growth, a comforting constant, and the best local spot I’ve ever had the pleasure of calling “mine.” Highly recommended.”

“We live just up the road and thought it was a greasy spoon. How wrong we were. Poached is a postage stamp size gourmet breakfast restaurant. The menu is innovative. The service is warm and friendly. That totally know their coffee (fresh roasted beans on sale here too). A delightful place for breakfast (and probably lunch too. As a bonus they have a live train times board and do takeaways. 5 stars all the way.”

“I’ve been here several times now since its recent opening. It’s a pretty looking place with a good selection of food both savoury and sweet. Staff are welcoming and you don’t feel pressured to leave. All in all a good local cafe to go to either with friends or alone”

“Been here many times and have always had a warm welcome from the owner/manager and the staff. Natasha is always so helpful and friendly. We normally have the set menu that is great value. We will be booking for Sunday Lunch next week.There are a lot of restaurants in Beckenham beginning with the letter P but none of them compare with the service and food at Papilios !”

“We went with our 2year old daughter and she had an amazing time. Staffs are really great. Easily reachable by public transport too. Lots of things to engage the toddler. Highly recommended”

“Ryan Spencer was very helpful and solved all the problems that we encountered very quickly, which made the service brilliant. Highly recommend!”

“We came for a Sunday roast. The food was exceptional, huge portions and lots of options (including multiple veggie options). Decor is beautiful. Service was lovely, staff were very professional. The atmosphere was nice but died a little when the music went off around 8.30pm and it implied that it was time for everyone to leave. Also the 14.5% service charge seems steep for Beckenham.”

“I had had a busy day about in Bromley and arrived early from that to a reservation I'd made that day for early dinner (18:15). Prices were properly reasonable for such fine dining. The presentation of each course was spot on, I'd even say en place, buuuuut not my element at this time. The maître d' was professional and courteous. I felt a bit under-dressed but braved through and they brought no attention to this and treated me. At some spirit auguery advice, my royal self reluctantly avoided steak this evening, going instead from chef's suggestion menu, the seared scallops and then sea bass. The scallops were grilled, and tender rather than rubbery as I sometimes 'expect' of scallop. I'd had some grilled halloumi around lunch tiem, and joked that scallops would be right out to pair with halloumi. I think there is this. The sea bass were served seared with skin on, and a sweet tomato salsa, with a potato tower of some kind. Service were quiet and excellent. I did not once feel rushed and I NEEEEED to return for some côte de boeuf or rib-eye some day soon. This should be written. I'll be needing dress better suited. Until then, I recommend that you do visit Branded Bromley if you should. ~ Lord Amadea-El, 6 November 2025 35:35 gmt24”

“Been using them for years and all my family and friends, Paul and Chanel always go above and beyond, obvs,if they can!”

“I phoned Beckenham dental centre on Sunday morning as I was in extreme pain from two teeth being extracted fom another dentist on the previous Wednesday. I was amazed I could be seen. The receptionist was very understanding, I had to wait a little but only about 15mins. I'm grateful I was seen at all. I think the dentist I saw was Dean, very pleasant and explained everything to me. He did an exam and took an xray of the extraction. He diagnosed dry sockets, washed them out and packed them, gave me the correct course of tablets. I'm an extremely nervous patient and loathe going to the Dentist, he completely put me at ease. I was even more flabbergasted at how reasonable the cost was, I was expecting to pay quite a lot and it was about a third of what I thought it would be. I would like to thank all the staff that dealt with me on Sunday 22nd June and would certainly recommend this Dental centre.”

“I e been using this mail studio for years. Their value is in how well the place is run. The manager is on top of all customers. Always best to call and book first, but they frequently allow walk ins. I also use their Dermalogica facials, if you go for the 1 h 10 minutes, you get the most awesome massage too. I have visited many of these places over the years, and this time I’m happy to stick with just Orchid Studio. The image show my nails after 2 weeks, as an indication on how well the get stay on.”

“Top Award Staying Open Later than Tesco.”

“Took my son for his birthday on monday and had the best experience-from being greeted warmly at the door,to being seated and beyond. The food was fabulous. It was so good to experience good old fashioned hospitality- it was great and will definetely put this place back on my list. Thank you!”

“I came here with my partner and children. Delicious food and drinks. Friendly staff. Relaxing and gives out nice holiday vibes. Family friendly. I definitely want to go again. Thank you.”

“Come in here with family for Lunch and had Kaci and a gentleman serve us who was top notch this place from food to service has drastically improved best it has been in a very long time. Thank you to Kaci especially as her service was top tier and will make the best manager one day. Thank you for the chef as well as all the food has Improved drastically”

“Always fully stocked would appreciate if the house department was a little bit bigger but hey Ho at least it’s got a house department. The food is always fresh. The staff are very helpful in general just love shopping at Waitrose in Beckenham.”

“My Stay at Beckenham hotel was very pleasant. Clean rooms, great welcome and good breakfast. I will be back soon.”

“This is a favourite in our family and always a place we recommend. We’ve been coming for years! The food is cooked with passion - always delicious, and the service is unbeatable! All staff are lovely and the owners have become like family to us. Every time we are there we look forward to the next! We’ll be back soon guys, please continue to bless Beckenham and beyond with your amazing food and services! A1 ❤️”

“The staff were very lovely, they worked with a smile on their face which was refreshing. The room was clean, bedding towels, bathroom etc. The heater was easy to work and warmed up the room relatively quickly. The only thing missing was a hairdryer which was disappointing.”

“Very Good Restaurant and Hotel in London”
