The 10 Best Refreshments in Chislehurst

“Lovely coffee & cakes. Great to have a hot drink in a cafe (and loos) in the Rec!”

“Anna is brilliant. I have loved my results from laser. I will continue to use Parfaire clinic for all of my beauty treatments!”

“Took my daughter here after she had a terrible experience at another salon and we couldn’t be happier. Her hair is the best I have ever seen it, she has been so happy the whole way home and has taken photos to send to all her friends. She also remarked how comfortable she was for the entire appointment and how there wasn’t any of that horrible atmosphere you can get elsewhere. We won’t be going anywhere else. Thank you so much”

“An excellent haircut and a lovely relaxing experience! Max listen to me about my hair concerns, he gave great explanations, in fact , I was told for the first time what hair type I have ! The colour and cut i can't fault even though it'll take about 6 months to get the style right while waiting for hair to grow, I love it! All the staff are friendly, best of all it's a relaxing atmosphere.”

“Been going Envers for about 3 years now since I moved to chislehurst and continued when I moved to Bromley. Always friendly and prices have been solid for a few years now.”

“Highly unusual pub giving the appearance of a flower shop when you enter but hiding a small bar with extensive selection of very fine craft beers and ciders at the back. Lovely quiet atmosphere for drinking and chatting with great staff. An absolute must stopover for anybody passing through the Chislehurst, Bromley, Sidcup area.”

“Came for a quick drink, came here a few years ago and really liked it, still a great place. Went on a Sunday lunchtime, not the best time because it was packed. Didn't stay to eat but if you do want to then I recommend booking in advance if they take reservations. We sat outside which was fine since it was a nice day. Friendly, welcoming and helpful service from the gent behind the bar (possibly the manager/owner). Very family orientated feel to the place. Very cosy inside. Good choice of drinks at reasonable prices.”

“The food was great , very tasty . Maybe to spice for me but the flavours were amazing I would go back to try something else . Great dessert”

“This little gem was an amazing find Hosted a Baby Shower here on Saturday and cannot express how accommodating The staff were. Dan was very flexible and encouraged us to decorate, provide a playlist that he played through the function room sound system, he allowed us to go in early before the booking to decorate too. There is plenty room for a sit down occasion or a full disco/dj party. A back door leads out to the garden and a separate area too. The room has plenty of sockets and a bar, buffet food is an option too. Had an amazing time and everyone complimented on the venue and how quaint, country-feel yet quirky it was. Perfect, Thank you !”

“This is hands down the best salon in Chiselhurst …all of the staff are super friendly and kind, and they’re all very good at what they do. You can tell when someone enjoys their job and these women definitely do and it shows through there work. They go above and beyond for elderly customers which I think is very admirable and are even very well trained to work on children’s nails… I have on several occasions brought my elderly mother and my youngest daughter whose 7 to the salon and we have all gotten our nails done and everytime they come out perfect. My daughter knows all the girls names and constantly asks when we can go back lol. I’ve had massages , facials, eyebrows just about everything done here and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Keep doing an amazing job girls.❤️ The salon itself is always clean and warm and even the cups that they serve hot drinks in are spotless which you don’t get in many salons these days! These girls are always doing something and I just want them to all know how much we as a family appreciate them❤️”

“I have been going to Enhance Beauty Lounge for several years now. The treatments are high quality, whilst affordable and the service is always friendly and professional.”

“Absolutely love this salon. The staff could not be more friendly, welcoming or attentive and the results are always amazing. I get beauty treatments at the clinic next door and there is a lovely almost family-like vibe when you visit. You feel really at home and the stylists (especially the salon owner Virginia who I always have cut and treat my hair) are perfectionists and so professional. Highly recommended. UPDATE!! Still visiting Virginia many years on in her new salon (which is lovely!) and need to add extra love for her on here (with photos of the magic she can work). Despite moving out of the area further into Kent, and being a non-driver, I’ve still been travelling in to visit V for cuts/colours, and, in general, sticking to a fairly conservative and natural style. However, as someone with hair “lazyitis”, I got in into my head this year that a perm would be a quick and easy “wash and go solution”’ to the usual cons of styling long and frizzy hair, and booked an appointment at a London salon “specialising in perms curly hair”. I’d had an upmarket West End perm back in the 1980s as a tennybopper and loved the look and was expecting a similar head of bouncy, spiral curls. Instead I was left with completely damaged, distressed, dry and colour stripped hair, which - not only wasn’t curly for the most part (it didn’t fully “take”) - but even worse was dry chopped prior to the treatment with no wet cutting afterwards, leaving me with completely uneven ends, half wavy/half straight brassy, dry frizz. This London salon were very slow to respond to my concerns post-perm and even advised me via text to “snip the long bits off myself” (!!) before asking me to return for a “repair job” when I persisted that I was hugely disappointed. However I was very wary and I knew they’d make my hair even worse if I did return (stating they’d cut straight across - probably dry cut again). Thankfully V rescued me, and when I arrived asked if I “wanted my old hair back”. I didn’t know such miracles were possible but I went into V’s salon looking like a famous TV scarecrow and left with a me that felt like my human self! V put enormous effort into colouring my hair to a beautiful chocolate brown (my natural shade) cutting off the damaged and uneven ends and showing that, even though my hair is now irreversibly permed, it has the versatility to be styled in other ways, including sleek, straight and bouncy. I cannot express my gratitude enough for Virginia’s effort and attention to helping me in dire straits. She heard my concerns before our appointment and ensured ample time was booked in to address my disaster. She has a real respect for your hair and loves to work with whatever natural flair you have, helping you minimise the elements you’re not fond of. She’s hugely dedicated and passionate and, outside of her skills, she’s also a really lovely human being who you can’t help but enjoy spending time with, often putting the world to rights. Thanks so much Virginia! I’ve attached some “before and after” photos to show the miracles she can work.”

“We hosted our daughter’s 1st Birthday party in the Star’s private function room (a beautiful room). Elle did a fantastic job and ensured that the day ran smoothly! I had a lot of specific asks and requests and Elle did a great job in fulfilling them. Communication from booking to the event itself was great. On the day Elle pre-empted all our needs, the chef was great, food was lovely and the service from the staff was very friendly. We will definitely be back for the next big celebration!”

“Great little shop. Staff are lovely!”

“Gary was so friendly and welcoming. Excellent vegan sausage roll and oat milk latte (which I had never liked prior to trying it here but was offered a try of!). Lovely little place to sit in some winter sun”
