Plants based in London

“This 50 year old business is surely an institution at this point. The owner tells me that one of the beautifully cared for plants in the window is 30 years old, saying that is was “older than you!”. After Christmas he says it will be time to close as he will retire. The food was delicious. What a loss to the community. This is exactly what makes London, London.”

“Such lovely staff and a warm welcome. They're happy to recommend, advise and are so lovely and friendly. We had Chonqing spiced "meat" and veg (it's spicy be warned) aubergine, double cooked no-fish, and vegan cumin spiced lamb. All were really really tasty and so similar to what they're imitating that you don't lose any of the textural qualities of if w You were just in a normal Chinese restaurant. Delicious food, nice atmosphere and very affordable. Highly recommend”

“One of the best restaurants I have been in London The food is amazing - freshly homemade, very tasty and very good - the mixed grilled is my favourite but everything we tried there was very good. Even we don't live nearby we make sure every few months we go there. The team is very friendly and they make you feel at home. The design of the restaurant is very cute too. Definitely we will be back soon. The food was so delicious that last time we even didn't take pictures of the mains hahah”

“Excellent coffee. Service with a smile. We didn't eat but we did see the 'English Breakfast' Looked fantastic! We'll definitely come again and order the breakfast. The decor is artistic and tasteful. A relaxing experience.”

“Absolute gem of a place! We were greeted with a big smile from Saniel and enjoyed exceptional service from him and his colleagues. Possibly our favorite meal in London! Great, clean vegan food. We tried the full Indian breakfast, a jacket potato, cakes and masala chai. Highly recommend all of it!”

“Best barber in london, 10/10 service, 100% would recommend.”

“Good store with lots of food options including a deli counter. Surprisingly big selection of good frozen pizzas. Lots of sweets and even a ice blast machine! The staff are really friendly too.”

“It is a very wonderful place, its products are really of very high quality, it is a place we always come to with our family, Nergis is a very good friend, she always helps us and the owner of the place, Caner, is very friendly, thank you for everything.”

“I come regular to buy my stuff. Best place to buy quality products in this neighbourhood. They have lots of varieties of gluten free products, different protein intake products, fresh vegetables, they have best selection of kombucha at affordable prices. You can find all best selected items at one place. And mainly shop atmosphere is very relaxing, hustle free shopping experience I had. Worth to visit this store.”

“Great store. Friendly staff, good products!”

“Hot Stone London offers a truly memorable dining experience, bringing premium Japanese cuisine together with a unique and interactive style of cooking. The restaurant is intimate and elegant, with a warm, understated atmosphere that makes it ideal for special occasions or a refined night out. From the moment you arrive, the staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and eager to guide you through the menu. The highlight, of course, is the hot stone cooking. High-quality wagyu, seafood, and other cuts are served raw for you to sear to perfection at the table, creating a fun and immersive experience while showcasing the exceptional ingredients. Their sushi and sashimi are equally impressive—fresh, beautifully prepared, and rich in flavour. The sake and wine pairings complement the dishes perfectly, and the presentation throughout is flawless. Hot Stone London combines creativity, premium produce, and polished service to deliver a dining experience that feels luxurious, engaging, and truly unforgettable.”

“Visited recently with a group of friends, it too a fairly long time for all of the group to arrive and decide what to order but the staff were pleasant and never pressured us into ordering quickly. We ordered 8 dishes from across the menu. The braised aubergine was particularly good. The crispy chilli 'beef' had a nice sauce but I couldn't taste or see any beef strips, it was just like crunchy strips of fried batter. The other dishes were really good, and the fake egg (in the rice) and fake meats/prawns in the other dishes were really flavoursome. Food was served quickly - 5/10 minute wait for each course - the restaurant was about half full at the time. The food was good value at ~£100 for 8 dishes and drinks. This place used to have a buffet and I'd love to see it return so I could try more dishes.”

“Lovely food, highly recommended haven’t had it in ages because I have not been in the area. Only thing I’m not happy with are the confusing opening hours, I would kindly recommend fixing that (speaking out of business experience). Would be much better if you stick to Thursday-Saturday 17:00 (or 18:00) - 23:00 (or 00:00) and Sunday as it is.”

“Came in for lunch during our London vacation and had a lovely meal at Kitchen W8. The meal was relaxed, but with refined food and service. Very interesting but approachable menu and expansive wine offerings. An elevated neighborhood resturant.”

“Come here frequently with the family as this is now our go to family restaurant with the kids. Great food, perfectly cooked burgers, buy one get one free two times a week and decent prices. Can't fault the place for a sit down meal in Chingfors. Easily my favourite restaurant.”

“I came here a few days ago, after seeing lots of posts on social media. Thought I'd give this place a try since it's only £12. First impressions, it gets really packed and isn't that particularly big, but having said that, the turnaround of customers is quiet fast, they don't spend more than an hour or so before leaving, so more customers can come and enjoy their food then leave without lingering around for so long. The selection isn't particularly vast, infact there isn't much meat/chicken selection as other buffets, but they do have the main stuff, though it can be argued that it isn't what everyone prefers, they have the minced beef dish (not sure if it's the pad kaprow but did taste good), chicken green curry, sweet & sour chicken, chicken massuman, grilled wings, with a chicken biriyani type of dish. On the other side, there's the rice with chicken , noodles (thick ones) and the pad Thai, then the thin rice noodles. And vegetarian stuff. I noticed the selection of food is the same as what others posted when they visited on different days, whether it be a week or months ago, got me thinking they cook/serve the same dishes everyday, thereby leading me into thinking they're taking the 'tried & trusted' approach, if it's not broke then don't fix it, which is fair play, atleast returning customers would know what to expect, so long as quality remains consistent. You'll see how limited the menu is if you ever came, and most of it is either vegetarian or with chicken with the exception of the beef dish. I'm giving it a 5 Star because to me; it's more to do with quality over quantity (I never got to try everything anyway because I'm only human and my stomach capacity is limited), and it was more than adequate for an overseas no-frills Thai buffet, I get it it's no Blue Elephant (before it closed down) nor Sanguan Sri (in Phloen Chit in Bangkok), but it's definately up there amongst other great Thai buffets I tried in London like Thonglor in Tottenham Court Road (the selection there is much more smaller than this, but their quality is definately a notch or two higher than this place). If you're in the vicinity, do visit. Otherwise don't bother travelling for more than an hour just for this, you may be either disappointed or won't find seating (at busy times, ie weekend). Another reason for my score only is because price is relative, and for £12, you get more than your money's worth. If it were a bit more expensive then I'd probably expect more in terms of beef or prawn selection, otherwise scored it 4/5”

“Oh my gosh! AMAZING FOOD. This was an experience. Everything was so, so good certainly a recommendation for any foodie. And if you’re a vegetarian you have hit the jackpot. The orange wine here was also super peachy and a big recommendation to anyone who enjoys orange wine. I would certainly recommend to book a table prior though.”

“We stumbled upon this gem right after leaving the subway. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted and chose a table near the entrance to soak in the city vibes. Our waiter—whose name I regret not catching—took excellent care of us! For an appetizer, we went with the pickled vegetables (highly recommend: yum!). My husband chose the lamb for dinner, while I leaned into the authentic Italian experience and ordered pasta. All I can say is: yum, yum, yum! My pasta was beyond delicious. I even joked with our waiter that it was “not good,” and he laughed and said, “I’ll let the chef know.” Then came the tiramisu… so good I had two servings and barely wanted to share. The cherry on top? Our waiter packed me a to-go serving, which absolutely made my night! Definitely recommend stopping by, it’s so worth it!”

“Very good shop with all the items you need.”

“Good price for products Excellent customer service - so nice to be able to dial a number and get directly through to a helpful person who cares! Will certainly be a repeat customer”

“A customer for over five years ... once again today given knowledgeable, helpful and thoughtful service. Whether it's vitamins and supplements to treat an acute issue or for proactive support to boost one's health, they give great advice and recommendations. The team is always friendly and Nell in particular has helped me several times - always steering me in the right direction. If you are keen to learn, they will help you learn about different remedies, products and pricing options. A big thank you to the Chelsea Health Store :)”

“Olive & Thyme is a delightful organic shop that truly stands out in its offerings and service. Every visit here is a treat, with their wide range of fresh, organic produce and eco-friendly products. The staff are exceptionally knowledgeable and always ready to help with a smile. Whether you're looking for specialty health foods, organic skincare, or unique culinary ingredients, Olive & Thyme has it all. Their commitment to sustainability and community well-being is evident in everything they do. Highly recommended for anyone passionate about quality organic products.”

“The Pizza was amazing one of the best Pizzas I ever had, I ate there with a friend and we both got the same Pizza, the one with Basil and Mozzarella, the waiting Time was also really short we barely had to wait for our Pizza to come, If I remember right it was under 10 minutes, the Homemade Lemonade was also delicious. Also the Athmosphere was nice and it was quiet and it was really easy to enjoy eating your Pizza there. Together with Drinks and Pizza we paid about 30£.”

“Great staff who were very welcoming and helpful. Gave us a free appetizer which was delicious. We ordered the kkangpung and chicken katsu udon noodles which were both very tasty and well priced. Would deffinitely recommend and go back. Only issue was my lack of chopstick skills”

“Absolutely love the pizza and the special sauce only they have”

“Absolutely the best in the area! I often drive from Hersham because there’s nowhere else nearby with such amazing coffee, delicious food, and a great atmosphere. Highly recommend!”

“Located at Feltham nearby,it is so far the best Nepali restaurant I go to dine with my dear wife on our dinner night once a month.I strongly recommend Chilli momo,steamed momo,chatpate,Aunti ko Aloo.Also,every Saturday at the end of the month,they offer ''Unlimited Momo'' steamed momos(chicken,pork & veg) specifically for £13 per person having as many as plates as you want within 2 hours!Not a bad deal innit?Moreover,they got happy hour well as on every Friday & Saturday.they got music band live which you will have to check on their Instagram page for updates or so. The atmosphere is vibrant with good music as well as gives the vibe of pub as if it is Nepali version of Wetherspoon. Service wise,the staff are hard workers and dedicated in providing the best service whole-heartedly.A huge shoutout to Trishna for being amazing and cheerful staff in providing excellent customer service going extra mile as me and my wife felt welcomed as well as cared for! Highly recommended & definitely coming back for sure!”

“Great atmosphere and service! Food quality is very good! The lychee martini is probably the best in London!”

“We were walking along the riverfront and looking for a place to have a few drinks. None of the usual bars caught our eye, but the cocktail mene here did, so we went in. I have had the burgers before, and they are delicious, but I was pleasantly surprised by the cocktails too. The vibe and atmosphere was great too! Not just a good burger joint;)”

“Stopped into the Harrow location on our way back to the Midlands and had a really pleasant experience. We didn’t have a reservation but the lady receiving guests showed us to a table for two straight away. There were plenty of patrons but the atmosphere was pleasant and not too noisy or overwhelming. We had the butchers block and a selection of drinks that had plenty of fresh fruit and ice served with them as advertised. Our server, Nicole, was very friendly and welcoming and was attentive to our needs, as well as those of a large party seated next to us. She had a warm and approachable demeanour that helped two out of towners feel at ease :)”
