Hospitable service in Surbiton

“Adding more context as it is deserved: The team at Vet4life are fantastic every time we go there with our tripod rescue cat. The practice is always immaculately clean (not easy when you handle animals), the staff are wonderfully friendly and professional and every time we have a question, we're given an answer with patience, understanding and elaboration where needed. In short, it's no surprise its such a popular vet for the area and I would thoroughly recommend using them (special shout out to Jenny - our cat's favourite)”

“Highly recommend the Surbiton Dental team for the kind, professional manner and excellent dentistry. I’ve had several appointments with Dr.Jack, who really put me at ease, explained every procedure that was needed. Best dental experience I’ve had to date”

“I saw a Dr that gave me first lot of antibiotics for a chest infection that I had when back after 5 days put on a nuther lot of antibiotics when to see a Dr for my LD check up and I sed to her do I need ennytink for it she no it will go on it own even though I have amsa and I when to see a nother Dr a threw days after and that Dr put me on an amsa pump and I also think it is very bad sending away very sick children even though sometimes we are late cos some people live far and if they get sent by 111 then u should see the very ill children and babies and disabled people like me it very bad to see all those posts that people have put and the people who answers phones should be very friendly and not rude even if u had a bad day don't take it out on outhers”

“My husband has had nothing but kind and compassionate caring at Tolworth Hospital”

“Asma was very understanding from the very beginning. I feared going to a person that would try to force a service on me as opposed to telling me what I needed, and she was the opposite of this - she listened to what I needed and advised accordingly. Asma gave me some skincare recommendations that I’ve started implementing into my routine now. She emphasised a very simple skincare routine for my skin type / what I needed. I’ve already told a few of my friends about her and would recommend her services to anyone”

“Brilliant as always perfect breakfasts brilliant rooms will always stay here when we are down in Kingston. Good value for money and very luxurious.”

“We recently had our newborn son circumcised at Circumcision Clinic London (CCL) Dr Anwar Khan , and overall, we had a very positive experience. As first-time parents, we were naturally anxious about the procedure, but Dr. Khan and the entire staff were incredibly kind, patient, and informative. They took the time to explain the entire process in detail, answered all our questions, and made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. The procedure itself was quick and done with great care. We were allowed to be present and comfort our baby immediately afterward. The doctor gave us clear post-care instructions and even provided written guidelines and a helpline in case we had concerns later on. Our baby was a bit fussy the first day, which we were told to expect, but he healed beautifully within a week. We followed the care instructions carefully, and we had a follow up appointment after 2 weeks. We’re grateful for how smoothly everything went and how compassionate the team was during a sensitive and emotional time for us. We would definitely recommend this clinic to other parents considering circumcision for their child.”

“It was our first time here. My mum who complains about all types of places we visit for food said the food is "excellent". We loved the food and the portion sizes are huge!! Nicely decorated for Halloween, restaurant has a nice ambience. Staff are really friendly. Everything was wonderful. Thank you, we will visit again!”

“Morning sausages cafes nice and clean sausage and bacon baguette very tasty.. get down there and get some tasty grub inside you”

“A pub I've been meaning to write up for a while but haven't been too sure on when to dive into it. It's a local community pub, one of the very few independent ones in the area, but one I barely frequent, and I've not really got a good reason as to why. The first trip I went here, it was a cold covidy afternoon, and I was relegated to the sea of sofas in the garden. Collected together, like the aftermath of a flood having ripped through the front rooms of an entire village, a mish mash of the comfiest seats a pub garden has ever seen. To get there you'd need to hop on through the pub, greeted by locals playing board games with a nod, a lone bloke chewing the ear off the bar staff about the complexities of the Marvel universe pausing only to let you order, or a live band in the corner on Thursday & Sundays. A beer fridge is well stocked, keg beers are your accessible macro gear, but most come for the ale. Expertly kept rotating cask selection; you'll typically find Oakham, Surrey Hills or a couple of obscurer local breweries. Invariably served with a sparkler. The pub itself dates back to the late 1800s, and even used to have a small brewery on site, but it's only since Liz and Adam took it over that it's become this beacon of light amongst a sea of Young's pubs. It won multiple CAMRA awards in the mid 2010s, and continues to champion quality ale. Food wise they've chopped and changed. BBQ burger nights, slow pulled meats and veggie options, cheese nights too, and on the weekend I went they had "Emma" (forgot the IG tag), churning out Middle Eastern dishes, orders coming in early doors on a Sunday. Bar snacks knocking about, but few pubs in the area offer their location up to pop-ups, so it's nice to see the variety. It's a cosy place, you'll not find another one like it really, and to get 2 (good) pints south of a tenner in these parts is worthy of praise alone. Having done almost double digit visits now, I've never had the same experience twice in terms of locals, beers, Rona rules and food, yet the vibe remains the same. Welcoming, hospitable and inviting - a pub fully deserving of all the praise the locals have bestowed upon it.”

“Popped in for lunch on the spur of the moment and thank goodness we did. We were greeted warmly and given the menu and chose, I had lamb souvlaki which was absolutely delicious, the chunks weren't massive like in other restaurants which I don’t like, they were cooked to perfection with strong Mediterranean flavours, my wife had a salad that had avocado and Halloumi with a trio of dips to go with again the flavours were perfect, the atmosphere was great and we will definitely be going again as it’s local for us. Thanks for a wonderful lunch”

“Disability accessible. Ground floor entrance. Toilets on the ground floor. Staff welcoming and excellent hosts, they were very attentive and we felt well cared for.. Clean and well organised. The food is fresh, delicious, and has a good portion. We had more than we could manage, and they provided takeaway trays so we could take it home. There are lots of options for vegetarians. They will also tailor your curry to your taste, i.e., add chillies, make it more spicy or hot for you. The best bit was the trays that were provided with the poppadoms. The variety of choices and flavours were really good. Best chutneys and presentation ever. The restaurant is on the main road with bus stops, which is good. They provide takeaways and plenty of seating for cosy small tables or large groups. We went early so and it was not full but it got busier as the evening went on. One thing I like is to listen to is Indian music, which adds to my experience of the culture and atmosphere. However, the music was cheesy pop like Taylor Swift, but it was not distracting. Thank you for the complimentary liquor and chocolates at the end of our meal.”

“Really good meal and great service. Had sesame prawn on toast for starter... one of the best I've had. Then beef salad and sizzling beef for mains. Followed by Mandarin souffle... all good!!!”

“An absolute gem of a family run restaurant. Been coming here for over 20 years. It has always been consistent over that time. Lovely menu, well cooked food excellent service. A very good set menu as well as a la carte.”

“Lovely Thai place. Quality ingredients!”

“Really good overall. Will come back for sure. Beef was nice and tender in the noodles, brisket beef could have been thicker but tasty never the less. Happy, great crab and sweetcorn soup.”

“My partner and I hired out a space in The Victoria for our leaving party and we had such an amazing experience. We initially booked the outside space however due to the weather being awful, they were able to move us inside last minute. Millena the manager was so helpful and was there for any assistance throughout the day, and the staff were so lovely and accommodating. Everyone had such a great day. The drinks and food from the burger shack was amazing. Would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of hiring out a space for a party!”

“Very nicely cooked food. Very quick service friendly staff”

“The Warwick Lodge Hotel in Surbiton is just what we are after. Very clean and tidy. Comfortable beds and excellent staff – especially Frances who welcomed us.”

“I recently ordered the Chili Lamb Shank from Red Rose in Surbiton, and it was absolutely fantastic! The portion was very generous, and the gravy was rich and flavourful. Highly recommend!"”
