He gives really good advice and his experience means he is right when discussing the choices or options. Really friendly and funny, he makes the tattooing session really pleasurable. Highly recommended!”

“Had a full english brakefast which was tasty and cheap. Am 6,4 tall and one plate was more than enough for me. Fair prices. Waited 5-10 min for a food. Food tasty and the lady was so nice to us. Thank you!!”

“Had breakfast here for the last two days couldn't ask for a better breakfast and better service. Id recommend this cafe should be tried if your in the area.”

“Like a scene from a Guy Richie movie. It’s your typical east London greasy spoon, only in Essex. Very friendly staff, spotlessly clean and great grub. I’d recommend it”

“Have visited the Salon recently quit a few times and had the honour of having my hair treated and cut by dana! What an asset to the hairdressers!

“A Hair-Raising Experience in the Best Way Possible! Alright folks, gather 'round and let me tell you about a little gem called Starsky's Barbers in Tooting. I live in Morden, but when it comes to getting that fresh trim, I'd hop on a unicycle and juggle flaming torches just to get to Tooting – that's how good they are! Now, let me share a story with you. One time, my son's afro was lookin' like it was auditioning for a 70s blaxploitation film, and we were in a mad rush to catch a train. We dashed into Starsky's, and the barber, like a hair-whisperer, said, "No problem, I gotchu!" And, man oh man, did he deliver! This guy transformed that wild mane into a work of art faster than you can say "shear genius." It was so good, I half-expected a standing ovation from the other customers! But the real magic of Starsky's Barbers is the vibe. You step in there, and it's like being at a comedy club where everyone's a headliner. The atmosphere is always jovial, filled with laughter and hair-larious wordplay. It's like a barbershop quartet, but instead of singing, they're slinging top-notch cuts and making you feel like part of the crew. So, listen up, people! If you're looking for a spot where the skills are razor-sharp, and the laughs flow like a finely groomed beard, then Starsky's Barbers in Tooting is the place for you. Trust me, it's worth the trip – even if you're not coming from Morden!”

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

“Convinced that this is one of London best kept secrets!! Had the most amazing curry when visiting for my dad's birthday. Service impeccable! Will definitely be returning. This is the best curry I've had.”

“Verdict • Food Quality: High-quality ingredients, particularly the fresh-cut fries and customizable, juicy burgers. • Atmosphere: Casual, loud, and dominated by the iconic red-and-white checkered theme and stacks of peanut oil boxes and potato sacks. Don't forget the free peanuts while you wait! • The Price/Value Question: This is where Five Guys can be polarizing. It’s significantly more expensive than traditional fast food. You are paying a premium for "fresh food, not fast food," but the service style is still fast-casual. Final Score: 8/10”

“Hot salt beef sandwich was delicious. Generous size too and great value for money, good to see this little cafe has survived during this pandemic.”

“Quick, fast and for the price, quality was definitely there! Good value for money! Everything's halal except the gyoza just because of a potential chance of cross contamination, very good for them to point out! Would recommend for going her for lunch and on the go!”

“Best service ogi was quick and accommodating for our friendship tattoes”

“We were here for my daughter’s pizza making birthday party. Although there were some issues with finalising the details prior to the party, on the day of the party itself, my daughter and her classmates all enjoyed the experience thoroughly. Each child received a starter, their own designed pizza and dessert. The party was mainly managed by Julianna who was a great host in making sure everything went through smoothly without it feeling rushed.”

“☕ Caffè Nero – Relaxing Vibe & Great Coffee Caffè Nero is one of my favorite places for a coffee break. The atmosphere is calm and cozy, with soft lighting and comfy seating — perfect for reading, working, or catching up with friends. The coffee is rich and smooth, especially the cappuccino and flat white. You can tell they care about quality, and the baristas usually get it just right. I also like their pastries and paninis — fresh, warm, and tasty without being too expensive. Service is friendly and efficient, even during busy hours. Some locations can get crowded, especially around lunchtime, but there’s usually space if you're patient. Overall: A great spot to relax with a well-made coffee and a bite to eat. It feels a bit more relaxed and personal than some other chains. ⭐ Rating: 9/10”

“Great place for chilling out with friends. Me and my mate go around there to play some pool every weekend, never had a bad experience. The staff is nice and very helpful. Really recommend this place.”

“Big enough local convenience store for you to find essential items.”

“My favourite home store! I bought a dinner plate set but when I opened the box at home one of the plates was completely cracked. I came back the next day and exchanged them with no hassle and the staff were very helpful”

“Staff were helpfull but as a spurs fan i broke out in a cold sweat and started itching looking for a football kit for a family member 9 year olds kit over £100 over priced thrift shop!”

“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!”

“I can't say enough great things about our weekly visits to Ask Italian. It's become a Sunday family tradition that we all look forward to every week. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to unwind after a busy week. What truly makes our experience special are the wonderful girls, Niki and Anna. They are consistently friendly and attentive, always going the extra mile to ensure we feel welcome. Their genuine interactions with my kids add an extra layer of joy to our visits. It’s heartwarming to see how they engage with them, making them feel special and included. The food is consistently delicious, with a variety of options that cater to everyone’s tastes. Whether we’re trying something new or sticking to our favorites, we’re always satisfied. Overall, Ask Italian feels like a second home to us, and we’re grateful for the fantastic service from Niki, Anna and all the staff. If you’re looking for a place where you can enjoy a great meal and feel like part of a family, this is it!”
