Interest in Watford

“I have never seen such a harmonious, caring and friendly team of doctors and receptionists. Even a tooth extraction can be pleasant, quick and painless. I think my 6-year-old's words, "I'M NOT AFRAID OF THE DENTIST ANYMORE," speak for themselves. Thank you”

“My two children have been with the same dentist for ages. Amish is great, always friendly. Get reminded for appointments by emails and phone. Would highly recommend.”

“Great service and very good food. Try the loaded chips... With meatballs sauce and mince... Melted cheese. Also try the Kumpir megameat with buffalo sauce and sweet chilli. You will definitely not go anywhere else... Love this place.”

“Came to the salon today for waxing and eyebrows and I can honestly say I won’t be going anywhere else now! Janvi was brilliant, she takes the time to talk to you and get to know you and the gentleman at the front desk was lovely too. The place is clean and tidy and I would definitely recommend! Thanks Janvi - very happy customer!”

“I have been coming to Sorella for years for my balayage using toner. I have been seen by both Emma and Devon who are absolutely incredible. Most recently Emma has coloured and styled my hair and it looks amazing. A natural balayage with a sun kissed look perfect for summer! Definitely would recommend this salon to all!”

“I by chance drove past and called to see if they could fit me in for a wash and blow dry. Couldn't have been more accommodating and fitted me in. Had a lovely lady called Ellie who was so kind and did my hair lovely. Would definitely recommend,even the other customers were lovely. Had a lovely chat. Will definitely be back.”

“Very nice, convenient and value for money! Welcoming staff too!”

“Hanako Brings Japan to Watford When I was looking for authentic Japanese food nearby, a few restaurants came up. But Hanako immediately caught my attention. Just from the Google review photos of their sushi and sashimi, I could see the craftsmanship. The presentation looked simple and neat, not overly decorated, but refined in a way that reminded me of true Japanese style. My Japanese friend and I were so excited that we arrived before the restaurant opened. The owner kindly let us in early, which was already such a warm welcome. Inside, the atmosphere was cozy and felt just like a small restaurant in Japan. The menu was easy to understand with clear English, and allergy information was clearly shown. On top of that, the owner kindly explained some of the dishes to us as well. I ordered the nabe udon and a sashimi sushi set. My friend had the shoyu ramen. The portion sizes were quite big for us, but because everything tasted so good, we finished it all. The flavors were very authentic but also easy to enjoy for people who may not be familiar with Japanese food. If I had to describe it in Japanese, I would say it has a 優しい味, meaning a gentle and comforting taste. We had a lovely chat with the owner. She told us that the tuna sashimi is 本マグロ, which is bluefin tuna imported from Japan. That truly impressed us, and you could taste the quality. Everything felt so fresh and nourishing. What surprised me even more is that Hanako has been open for 23 years. That’s nearly the same age as me. It made me think about how Japanese food wasn’t very common in the UK back then. I can only imagine how much this restaurant has gone through over the years to continue sharing this kind of food with the community. I wrote this review to share my appreciation for the food and people at Hanako. If you’re reading the menu outside and not sure whether to go in, I really recommend you try it. This place is a hidden gem.”

“This place was 10/10, I did not order in store but I ordered from Deliveroo and I had to come and leave another review. This is the tastiest Caribbean food that I’ve had in Watford and I’ve lived here for 20 years. In fact, it’s probably the best I’ve had anywhere in years. The flavours were amazing, you can tell the jerk chicken came straight off the jerk pan, it was so flavourful, the rice and peas was rich in coconut, the macaroni could’ve had a bit more flavour, but when you eat everything together, you can’t even notice. The portion size was massive, it could easily feed two people. I also got a Jamaican dumpling on the side and it was so, so good, it was soft, sweet, and pillowy. I will recommend this place to everyone if you want a good Caribbean dish.”

“grabbed a coffee here this morning, the best coffee I have had in a long time and I could not believe how cheap it was. £0.90p for a fresh flat white.”

“Chilled out family restaurant serving fresh tasty food. The service is excellent too. They also have a nice selection of desserts.”

“Had a paneer tikka Kathi roll, fries and a can of Limca for £8.90. Food was served within minutes, piping hot. Fries were really crispy and the portion was a good size for one. The paneer tikka roll was filling and tasted very delicious. Not too spicy. The kathi roll was a flaky paratha that crumbed a bit but tasted really buttery and crispy. Staff were friendly and helpful. We dined in and the lady at the counter brought our food to us. They clear and clean all tables as customers leave. They have veg and non veg options. Would eat here again.”

“Everyone enjoyed their food, the matcha was really good, the music really good and the actually inside of the cafe is gorgeous. All the servers were really nice & accommodating (especially Lisa! she took great photos for us) even though we had a big group. Overall had a great time and would definitely come back!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing dining experience at this Thai restaurant! The Prawn Tom Yum Soup was bursting with flavors—spicy, tangy, and absolutely delicious. The Prawn Tempura was perfectly crispy and light, making it a delightful appetizer. For the main course, we enjoyed the Chicken Garlic and Peppers with Rice, which was cooked to perfection with just the right amount of garlic and spice. Overall, every dish was delicious, and we will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic and tasty Thai cuisine!”

“Mohammed was incredibly nice and customised my order appropriately to fulfil my wants for both rice and chips. The lamb here was wonderful with generous portions and worth the price. There were even more delicious looking skewers of meat grilled up fresh that I would love to try.”

“This is for Nandos at the mall in WATFORD junction. The employees are very alert and welcoming as soon as you open the door. They are very organized and you can order your food by scanning a bar code or you can still do it the old way by going to the till. The fries are second to none. I enjoyed my food and I was full. I have been to this restaurant each time I am in the UK. Check it out”

“We had our daughter’s christening party here over the weekend and the team were absolutely amazing. A huge shout out to Amber, Rod, and George - you truly went above and beyond!! The food was fantastic — so many of our guests commented on how delicious everything was. From helping with preparations and decorating, to sorting out drinks ahead of time and even organising the music, you made sure the whole day ran seamlessly. We couldn’t recommend The Royal Oak enough for a special occasion. Thank you so so much for making our celebration so memorable! — Sarah & Tom”

“Elaine is such a friendly landlady! Always feel welcome. Forgot my phone once and the team not only kept it aside for me, but even charged it for when I picked it up! Absolutely stellar every time! And really good quality beer!”

“Popped in late Sunday morning to have a tyre looked at. Ali said it would be around 30 mins as they check all of them when on the ramp (not sure what it's called). Popped down to the coffee shop just past the lights & they were done when I got back. Finished when I returned, no issues found & the tyres were all pumped up. Nothing to pay - which is a surprise but wonderful in this day & age. Excellent service from Ali & Lopez (?), I'll be back when new tyres are needed. Thanks fellas!”

“Truly outstanding customer service at the best prices in Watford. Excellent work done to my car. Industry leading professionalism and care. I can't recommend this place enough. 5 stars is too low, but it's the most I can offer. Thank you!”

“Definitely our favourite pizza for miles around and the service is amazing too. We ordered through Just Eat but the app was behaving strangely so we phoned the restaurant. They confirmed our order was ready but no delivery driver had shown up after waiting a few minutes longer we ended up going to collect the order ourselves and they gave us some free brownies by way of apology!”

“Thank you Adam for squeezing mum in Saturday before Christmas, you and your stylist saved her day and Christmas. Everyone commented how lovely she looked and it was down to you guys. Brilliant to have free parking outside due to her mobility issues. Thanks again. Hope you all had a great Christmas and have a happy healthy safe new year.”

“I have been a customer for over 17 years and have always had good experiences with the service and quality of the products, especially the meat. Medina has a large selection of pantry products, sauces, spices, fresh produce, drinks, and snacks to suit different tastes. Their meat and chicken are always fresh, reasonably priced, and displayed. The butchers are accommodating when asked for a special cut. I no longer live locally, but I travel to do my monthly big shop of Asian products and halal meat. No other butchers have equalled quality and service.”

“Staff was good and helpful when I got there to collect my parcel”

“Going into the shop I felt immediately welcomed, Jake was so lovely he really helped me understand by explaining and demonstrating on how to use the products, very informative and polite. Will definitely go back to Jake in the near future for any problems. He was also very friendly and patient as I had many questions.”

“In a town where culture, the arts and music has been allowed to dwindle for the best part of 15 years, the Pump House is an absolutely vital part of the local arts and music scene. It provides an essential space for music and theatre in a way no other venue now does in Watford. From amateur theatre and kids theatre groups, to live music of all sorts, Watford would be artistically poorer without the Pump House. It should be supported and protected at all costs.”

“I’m so happy with the service from Cooper’s Estate Agents. A massive thank you to Sasha for going above and beyond what was expected of her. She has been incredibly supportive, patient, and helpful throughout the whole process, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her continued guidance. Truly outstanding service – highly recommend!”

“A fantastic experience with Andy and Andy. They moved my piano from a tricky location with care, patience and persistence. Very nice guys and a credit to what seems to be a well run company”

“Just bought a beautiful, delicate, gold pendant chain for my daughter’s birthday. I had spent ages online looking for something I thought might be cheaper. But the quality and price of the necklace I bought at Jackson’s is so much better than anything I found on the internet. Excellent value for money and brilliant service. Will definitely return.”

“great deal for lunch 2 courses just for £13 ordered fries halloumi and beef Lasagne both of them taste very good can ask to take away if you can't finish them The service is excellent, definitely worth it to try”
