“Amazing little store. Wide assortiment of Hungarian spices, sweets, cakes, drinks etc. in the heart of Twickenham. They even sell some books in Hungarian. They were very kind and helpful. My wife was extremely happy to find this treasure.”

“Our son, who is 2yrs old now, has been at Beaumont House full time since he was 11 Months old. We have a very good communication with the staff, everybody is very caring, flexible and attentive to him. He is very happy going to the nursery, that's the principal for us. He loves doing messy play, singing, playing in the garden and participating to lots of the experiences that it is proposed!”

“Absolutely love this restaurant, it is fantastic for veg and non veg entrees. We ordered the tandoori paneer—which came out in a sizzling iron platter, the stewed lamb curry, appetizer sampler and veg momos. Everything was so hot and delicious, flavors were phenomenal and we ordered a second round shortly after! Service was great too, we will definitely be back next time we’re in Twickenham.”

“The Thai kitchen here is first class. The pub is also very nice for a drink or two. But the Thai food is legit, been several times and it's often full, and even more encouraging - a LOT of Thai people eat there. One of the best Thai restaurants in London at the moment.”

“Great old-fashioned pub. Excellent selection of beers, great service and good-quality food. Prices very reasonable for the area as well.”

“I’ve been here multiple times over the years and have always had first class service and quality food. The staff are always super welcoming and friendly and the atmosphere is great. An absolute go to for our group of mates who come here for our reunion lunches and catch-ups. 100% recommend, especially if heading onto a rugby game afterwards! Looking forward to our next visit!”

“For years, Golden Grill has been a staple in the community, serving up some of the best kebabs and Turkish flavours. With an incredible management team that keeps everything running smoothly, this place has built a well-earned reputation for quality, consistency, and great service. Their chicken shish kebab is a must-try—perfectly grilled, tender, and packed with flavor. It’s always cooked to perfection, making it a go-to for anyone craving a delicious, satisfying meal. But what truly sets them apart is their homemade chili sauce—the perfect balance of heat and flavor that takes every bite to the next level. The sides here are just as impressive. From creamy tzatziki to rich, flavorful houmous, everything is fresh and made with care. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a full meal, you’ll find generous portions and incredible taste at an affordable price. If you’re looking for a great local spot to skip cooking and enjoy an amazing dinner, Golden Grill is the place to go. Friendly service, unbeatable flavors, and a welcoming atmosphere—it’s no surprise this place has been thriving for years!”

“Let me be very clear. This was a great pizza find. A great dough base with plenty of toppings. 10/10! The one and only issue was the way the pizza was cut/sliced. My car key would have done a better job. All in all, a really great find!”

“Pleasant shopping experience if you prefer not shop at a larger Sainsbury's superstore Great food and good general home produce choices. Prices are little more than other stores. Staff are pleasant and helpful”

“A wonderful gem of a place. Coffee/tea/hot chocolate and so much more. All expertly made by the very handsome gentleman. It’s lovely to see someone who takes so much care in what they do. The coffee is amazing. Love that Niall can tell you everything about his coffee and where it comes from. He takes great care with sourcing all his ingredients. He will make sure you’re happy with your cuppa and goes the extra mile. His toasties are fantastic and so tasty!! There’s always something delicious to try. It’s so lovely to be able to sit down and enjoy your meal/coffee surrounded by beautiful plants and flowers. Four leaf is set in a family run garden centre right next to the train station. Such a gorgeous place to sit and relax.”

“What a pleasant experience. We were greeted at the door and seated by the friendly "Ben" who anticipated our needs throughout the evening. Ben brought us some complimentary warm focaccia and olives to nibble on while we made our menu choices. The menu has a good balance of dishes and I quickly decided on my choices along with a bottle of Ramaro for the table; I have a soft spot for Sicilian red wine. All dishes were well plated and tasted as good as they looked. The portions were also very generous, perhaps "Mama" was in the kitchen dishing the plates. After the meal, there was little room left for dessert, so I shared a panna cotta with my wife; I have to say that it was the best I've ever tasted. My only regret is that I didn't choose one of the seafood dishes, they looked realy appetizing. My relationship with crustacions has always been one where no matter what precautions I take while shelling them, a jet of oil always squirts out and slashes me on my shirt. Perhaps next visit I'll wear on old shirt or a bib; perhaps both.”

“My dining experience at Shuili in Twickenham was nothing short of amazing. The restaurant has a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. We had a wonderful family dinner at Shuili. The staff were friendly and accommodating, making it a great spot for kids as well. The menu had something for everyone, and the food was outstanding. The food was fresh, flavourful and beautifully presented. The Burrata Chaat was a delightful surprise, loved equally by the kids and adults. Choosing a favourite between the lamb chops and the jumbo prawns was no easy task but if I had to pick, the lamb chops edged ahead with impeccable flavour, perfect texture and presentation. I would highly recommend Shuili for anyone looking for a memorable meal!”

“The breakfast bar arrived exquisitely presented and was absolutely delicious! Highly recommended!”

“Amazing food, beautiful decor, great atmosphere, and wonderful staff with a good sense of humour. Tables are usually for 2 or 4 (with indoor and outdoor seating) but they pushed some together to seat 6 of us together. Can't recommend enough!”

“Lovely and fresh Italian food. The ravioli portion was made by Yolanda Hadid. Nice atmosphere and friendly service.”

“I worked in London for about two years and was staying near Tangawizi. I ate there a couple times a week many many times over that two year time frame. I absolutely love it there. The food is phenomenal and always has the highest quality ingredients. The service is exceptional as well. Eight years later, we returned to the UK for my 60th birthday and I wanted to visit them again due to the fond memories I had. Our dinner this evening was just as phenomenal as ever. The flavors and freshness of the ingredients was incredible. The King tandoori shrimp are a favorite of mine and I literally got another order for dessert rather than a normal dessert. They thought I was joking when I ordered it for dessert! I travel frequently for business and have had the opportunity to eat at many phenomenal restaurants and they are at the top of the list with the best! I’m so happy they made it through the pandemic and now celebrating 20 years. I would highly recommend Tangawizi!”

“A very Authentic and delicious Indian food served here. Will definitely come back again!”

“10/10 local caff. Great breakfast, £12ish for a big full English with tea and a can. Friendly and quick service too!”

“This place continues to offer great service, food and drink, after years. Very impressed that they offer a few interesting drinks as well as coffee. Their tea range is great and very happy that they sell hojicha latte. Pastries are great quality and good value for money. Good playlists as well, and team are always friendly and helpful.”

“An excellent Sunday lunch at The White Swan. Not that many tables, so we'd reserved for 3x in advance, but just a few days before. The weekend before Christnas, so we were pleased to be fitted in. A lovely table right by the bar, immediately friendly service, a drink for me, whilst waiting for the rest of the party. The Sunday roasts were excellent, great pudding as well. Highly recommended ...”

“Good coffee, cute decor, really good range of lunch foods. Service was a little cold to begin with but it improved with each interaction. Overall a nice cafe and good to support independent business”

“A lovely place to grab a hot/cold drink and a good range of snacks and ices, situated right next to a large children's playground park and picnic area. Toilets are accessible too. A few minutes walk from Ham cross- river ferry boat and this café is conveniently located between historic Orleans, Marble hill and Ham houses. All of which are fantastic places to visit, if you have the chance to. Well worth a visit!”

“1st time and it was a lovely pub near the Rugby (and I could park my motorcycle in the street). The young staff were welcoming, even when I asked if I could have 3 pints of Naked Ladies, if I wasn't being wound up by my buddies who drink there regularly for rugby. BTW they have Erdinger in bottles, including alcohol free so I could enjoy a beer.”

“We had reserved a Christmas lunch for ten individuals at a different Green King establishment. After receiving only generic confirmation emails and no further communication, we visited the pub a week prior to our booking, only to discover it was still under construction. Dec, the Area Manager, was present and clarified that a mix-up had occurred, and our reservation should have been canceled. Following some concern, Dec successfully rebooked our lunch arrangements at the Barney Arns in Twickenham. Our visit to the Barney Arms was met with exceptional service from Chloe, who demonstrated remarkable helpfulness and understanding, effectively alleviating any concerns we had. Our Christmas luncheon was exceptional, characterized by outstanding cuisine and a superb ambiance. The staff provided exemplary service. Dec, Chloe, and the team provided exceptional assistance. We will certainly be rebooking for next year. Thank you for making our Christmas Day truly special.”

“Incredible food as always I’ve never had a bad experience here. It’s such a welcoming atmosphere inside and I’ve never had to queue up to wait to sit down or had to wait for a long period of time for my food to be ready. Excellent price for the generous portions and really friendly staff.”

“An amazing place with great food, drinks and extremely hospitable! I had a great time and would 10/10 recommend.”

“This is a lovely little French restaurant, with pretty French music! The French bread and caper butter was very delicious had to order more bread to finish off the yummy butter! My partner ordered the scallops and I got the pea soup - both very tasty! The decor is lovely, wooden floors and velvet blue sofas. The veal and plaice was quite good and the dauphinoise was excellent! Would definitely recommend and want to try the lobster ravioli next time!”

“Very nice. The coffee is a reasonable price, and very good quality - it doesn't taste like a dark roast so there is lots of room for the lighter flavours to come out. The staff are lovely. Unusual armchairs to sit in, or more traditional seating towards the back. Lots of accompanying food is offered, with gluten-free options available. It's so much better than a chain brand - and independent businesses are worth supporting. My cappuccino was £2.40. Loyalty cards are available. This could well be my favourite coffee in central Twickenham since The Coffee Lab closed down. Well worth a visit.”

“Our son lives in Twickenham and this is our ‘go to’ hotel when we visit. Great location, clean cosy rooms and friendly efficient staff. We sometimes take our evening meal here and have always been very happy with the quality and choice. Good beers too. On one or two occasions we’ve struggled to get the television to work. It’s not a straightforward system so it can be easier to simply connect to the Internet and use my iPad. Aside this small niggle the hotel is perfect for us and we will continue to use it. Watch the room prices though, they can be very high on certain rugby match days.”
