The 30 Best Learning in Barnet

“My son and daughter both enjoy coming to Razzmatazz. They love the singing and dancing and always want to perform again home what they have learnt. The teachers seem fun and enthusiastic. It's a really lovely drama school!”

“A great place!!! Fast, friendly, great product at a great price. I’ll be back next time I’m in London. Thank you”

“Brilliant! Really easy to book in, regular updates and very competitive prices. My young daughter also took her car there alone, and was made to feel comfortable. Fully explain all work before it is carried out. Now my garage of choice. Highly recommend.”

“I have just returned from another great visit to this dental surgery. Dr Roshan Devalia was rigorous in his examination and took the time to talk me through his findings. I always feel confident after these consultations. Colleen, the hygienist, took care throughout her work and was gentle but thorough. It is always a pleasure to talk with Neena, the Head Receptionist, who is committed to making the patient experience as good as it can possibly be. She is competent, gentle and kind. I fully recommend this dental surgery!”

“Great Value for Money, very clean gym and doesnt get too busy either, some great classes too Only negative- ca be quite hot and noisy in the badminton courts”

“My child is about to leave East Barnet Bright Horizons and head off to school! And I’m so sad to have to leave we have both had the best experience at this nursery. We have been there since baby room all the way to preschool and every single staff member has cherished my little one and helped them to strive to the best of his abilities! I couldn’t thank them all enough for making us feel like family (Special shout out to Charlene)! Highly recommend :)”

“Contrary to other reviews, this is a good and supportive school with well educated staff and teachers. They are also not extremely strict like other schools which allows students here to form their identities without being stripped of their personal Liberty and freedom of self expression (like some other schools). Multicultural and diverse, you have students from all sorts of different backgrounds which enables you to mingle and form relationships with people from cultures all across the world. The education system is supportive. Staff is supportive. Cantine food is mediocre. I don’t know how things have changed from when I left 5 years ago, but from the time I was here, I enjoyed my secondary school experience. Other schools have it a lot worse, at friern Barnet you were enabled to be educated while not being autonomously ruled.”

“My son has gained tremendous skills since starting at we make footballers and he loves it. I like the small groups almost like one to one coaching. The energy is good. I'd recommend them 100%.”

“Our little boy joined the baby room at The Hyde in February and he absolutely loves it there. He settled in super quickly and has wonderful fun filled days. The staff are lovely, warm and caring and you can see the bonds between the babies and them. The space is beautiful with lots of light, lovely toys and a really nice garden space where they often spend time. They do lots of activities to learn through play and build relationships with one another. He has really thrived since joining and we love how much he enjoys going and feel really lucky and grateful we found The Hyde.”

“Excellent resource which is hugely beneficial for children’s creativity and confidence. Highly recommended.”

“Highly recommend this nursery - clean and flexible environment, friendly staff and owner, variety of activities, not the least happy kid, real value for money.”

“Had a private group lesson with my partner and his parents! They were so nervous because it was their first time doing any sort of dance class. Alex made everyone so comfortable and taught the class in the most engaging and warm way. I would 10/10 recommend her for any one who’s looking to introduce a little dance into their lives in a fun and engaging way ”

“Jeanette has looked after our 2 guinea pigs twice already this year and we cannot recommend the Ranch highly enough. Guinea pigs were well-looked after, nails trimmed and even video links of them playing (which the kids enjoyed watching when we said the guinea pigs were staying in their hotel too). Have already booked again - 5/5 customer service too!”

“A quality artist and all round top bloke, if you need a tattoo you cant't go wrong with going to Jesse, he's extremely reasonably priced for the quality of work too.”

“Extremely informative! Thank you so much to the lovely lady at reception for all your useful advice. And thank you to the vet for a very informative examination of Dylan, and the great advice he gave. We will definitely be trusting Dylan’s care to you.”

“From the moment you step into Puddleducks New Southgate Nursery, you are greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that immediately puts both children and parents at ease. The vibrant, cheerful environment is thoughtfully designed to stimulate young minds and nurture creativity, making it an ideal setting for early childhood education. One standout feature of Puddleducks is its exceptional staff, particularly Sameerah, whose dedication and passion for her work shine through in everything she does. Sameerah is a beacon of kindness and professionalism, consistently going above and beyond to ensure each child feels valued and supported. Her ability to connect with children on an individual level is truly remarkable, fostering a sense of trust and security that is essential for young learners. For any parent seeking a nurturing and stimulating environment for their little ones, Puddleducks, is the perfect choice.”

“Thank you Sam and the girls for supporting my daughter from the very beginning in ballet, tap and singing lessons. I've seen my little girls confidence grow and she absolutely loves the team there. It's a temporary break we are taking and due to return after summer! Thank you x”

“Amazing and quick service. Friendly staff that solved all of the car issues! Can't recommend enough!”

“I have been attending bodens for about five years now and in those five years I have learnt so many new skills. I currently attend their Saturday morning combined musical theatre classes from 10am-1pm and their tap dance classes on Mondays from 5pm-5:45pm. I also take part in Trinity musical theatre exams which I am very lucky and grateful to do. Bodens has given me many opportunities and taught me many things that I will use in everyday life and in the future. Being a student at bodens has helped my confidence grow massively. They never fail to produce incredible shows where every student is involved and having fun. All members of staff are lovely and are always nice . They encourage us to take risks in theatre and help us understand what life is like in the theatre industry. Not only are the staff kind, but the students are too; they are all very welcoming to new people and are always open to making new friends. I have really enjoyed every moment during my time at bodens so far, and I think other young people should get to experience this too.”

“My extended family and I have been using T and H Motors for over 10 years. They continue to show professionalism and skill in any task on any of our cars. Whether it has been re spraying a range rover, ordering parts for a car that is no longer imported into the UK or just sorting out a difficult problem. They always charge fair and reasonable rates and carry out exceptional work. I am using them again now so I wanted to take the time to add this review because of the time and support they have given me. They are also excellent at servicing and providing MOTs.”

“Lovely, well maintained little rescue for local animals. You can have a drink and a snack in the entrance and then visit the animals. Great activity for small children and adults spending time together. You can also combine the visit to the rescue with a hike in Trent Park. The entrance fee goes to the rescue charity.”

“Slide and swings-weeee Ducks - quack Grass - green init”

“This animal rescue centre is a sweet place that's run by volunteers and looks after animals in need of assistance. You can pay a small fee to visit the animals, which I highly recommend, before stopping for a drink and a snack on your way out. Well worth supporting!”

“I had a very smooth experience at Dr Langdon's Practice, I had to do an emergency root canal and I was very nervous about it. Dr Langdon was kind and caring and made sure I had no pain during the surgery and offered his help in case of any issues afterwards, which I had none. I am now happily using my tooth with no pain or problems. Many many thanks!”

“I cannot praise this business enough. They go above and beyond in anything you need. The professionalism is second to none. The lady who does waxing is amazing. I have personally used Seda and another lady for brows/lashes and they are both attentive to detail. Eliz, master of hair as I call her, knows her products and gives the best advice to suit your colour and hair needs. I have been using them for many years and really should have done this review a long time ago! Both branches are as good as the other. Take your pick!”

“I went to Chloe for my first ever lashes. They looked great. I went to a festival, skiing and almost 4 weeks later they still look good!”

“I can't say enough positive things about Smart Play holiday camp! It was an absolute delight for my children and a relief for me as a parent. The camp is incredibly well-organised with a diverse range of activities that keep kids engaged and excited. From sports to arts and crafts, they offer a well-rounded experience that caters to various interests. The staff is not only friendly and approachable but also highly qualified and dedicated to ensuring the safety and enjoyment of every child. They create a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made my children feel right at home. What impressed me the most was the emphasis on learning through play. They seamlessly incorporated educational elements into games and activities, which is a testament to their commitment to children's holistic development. The flexibility of scheduling and the availability of extended hours were a lifesaver for my busy schedule. I highly recommend Smart Play to any parent looking for a fun, enriching, and safe environment for their child during the school holidays. It's a camp that truly lives up to its name!”
