The 30 Best Restaurant atmosphere in Orpington

“My 1st visit was November 24 and somehow I got mixed feelings for this place. After reading good reviews and that they have been rewarded one of the best when I went there felt a little disappointing. Stuff were absolutely chaotic and shouting to one another not paying attention to clients. The menu was missing many meals who can you have a fish section and only serve prawns and no other fish. I ordered keema naan and it was crispy and had like a blob of meat in the middle. Most of the food I eat in other places is far better. The atmosphere with this blue light is blinding.”

“Absolutely love this place! Our favourite Turkish restaurant. The food is always top quality, full of flavour and beautifully presented (just look at the photos!). The service is consistently amazing, the staff are friendly and go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Whether it’s the grilled meats or the delicious desserts, everything is spot on. Highly recommend!”

“A true family run authentic restaurant. The owners put their hearts and souls into it and it really shows in the quality of the food, service, and atmosphere.”

“My first time at this fish and chip shop It was a great experience. The food was lovely and freshly made, their staff were really welcoming and friendly. Highly recommended to pop in!”

“Thoroughly recommended. Not large, so worth booking ahead if visiting at a busy time. Wonderfully friendly and caring service and a great brunch menu. My vegetarian wife found the choice a little limited, particularly as avocado had run out We look forward to another visit”

“Friday evening visit at the brazzerie. Excellent food. We had the venison puff , salmon and burger. The chicken bites were yum but overall wonderful experience. I will be back. The only issue I had is that it would have been nice if they took our coats to hang rather than fold them around our chairs. They did that for others so I'll let that pass for the first visit.”

“Great food - the fish soup is full of flavor and supplemented with a small basket of tasty bread, king prawn risotto is super delicious Good service, only £14.8 for two courses at lunch is absolutely worth for value Only a small drawback is that the cappuccino is just fair”

“My friends & I went to this superb restaurant for lunch today. I have been here on numerous occasions. It never dissappoints! . My friends loved it. VIV’s new favourite. I had mussels and skate for main. Vegetables cooked to perfection. I could go on and on how good this restaurant is. Looking forward to coming back soon. 5⭐️+”

“It was my birthday meal and everything was perfect. The pork belly bites are like candy that is sticky and melts in your mouth at the same time. My friend has mushrooms on toast to start and they were yummy with the combo of shrooms and that sauce. We then both had burgers - she beef and me chicken and they were excellent. They were very accommodating she didn’t want the bacon on hers but I did. The fries were so good and stayed hot for a long time. I also had an Islay old-fashioned - heavenly. We didn’t have room for dessert but they brought us out a couple of brownie bites and the were divine. I would definitely eat here again.”

“Had a very good dinner with my friends and our daughters. The food portions are very generous and the local Turkish red wine was great. The service was lovely too. Will definitely be visiting again”

“Love this cafe, second times this rounds. Found a rice dish too. Love the environment, great services from staff always smile and polite. Definitely favourite cafe on this area”

“An exquisite little gem with an amazing staff, delicious food and great drinks. Highly recommended!”

“Lovely place run by the college and the students great food and amazing service and all very affordable, would recommend to everyone”

“One of the best Chinese restaurants in Orpington. We ordered Tofu, and it was delicious, literally melting. The Pork and Chicken was really nice, it was recommended by the staff. The staff is really friendly. A reasonably priced restaurant must visit.”

“I took table 11 then Georgina took my order and she was very helpful and polite food was served in good time by Ben who was very professional and well mannered food was spot on and excellent will definitely go back there soon thank you.”

“Me and my wife came here and I honestly have no bad words to say. Firstly the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and just pleasant to be around. They seemed to enjoy working there which is always good to see. The food was incredible and loved everything we ordered and the staff even helped pick and amended orders to please us. Again great service. The place itself is lovely with music in the background at the perfect volume as not too loud or quiet. Also had an old fashioned cocktail which was very very good (and I’m a stickler for an old fashioned!). Will definitely be coming back again”

“I highly recommend this place! The pizza is absolutely fantastic—delicious and full of flavor. I’ve also ordered from them several times for parties, and they never disappointed. The quality of the pizza and the service are consistently top-notch. Keep up the amazing work!”

“I went for a meal here for my friends birthday, had a great time and the food was tasty and filling. The atmosphere was nice and the staff were friendly and attentive. I didn’t have too much food wise, but my friends meals looked amazing. For my drink I had a sex on the beach cocktail, and it was great for the value.”

“Wonderful meal delivered this evening. Friendly delivery driver, hot tasty food and we thoroughly enjoyed all of it. Thank you”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely love this Nando’s! The food is always hot, fresh, and full of flavour — exactly what you want from a proper peri-peri fix. The staff here are friendly, welcoming, and super efficient, even during busy times. The restaurant is clean and has a great atmosphere whether you're popping in for a quick bite or having a relaxed meal with friends. Shoutout to the team for always delivering great service and making each visit a good one. Can’t fault it — one of the best Nando’s around!”

“Our first visit to 5 Guys Orpington. Found the place and with easy free parking right outside. We ate early so the place was a little quiet , however very clean and tidy and happy staff team .Excellent service and fantastic hamburgers . A little at high price end but worth it. Special mention to HARVEY . He talked us through the menu and explained how the place works. Also hamburgers and meals were great . You can definitely notice the difference with this high quality. We would definitely use this restaurant again. Thanks Harvey !”

“Great food and attentive waiters. New items on the menu which look good so we will be back to try. Popular with our friends who travel from outside of Orpington to enjoy. Only slight comment is about the lighting, please please change ‘bright’ light bulbs for ‘soft’ light bulbs to make a better ambience. Just turning them down doesn’t really work as they are too harsh but everything else Amazing.”

“When entering creams Orpington I was absolutely amazed at how much option there was for dessert, I love the fact you can see all the food being made infront of you and you can see all the selection of ice cream on show at the front of the shop, after being seated we scanned a QR code on the wall and began to search through the massive selection of desert on offer, in the end I went for the cookie dough in the photo and could not had loved it anymore, I will definitely be going back and can’t wait.”

“I booked an afternoon tea in a pod for myself, my mum and my aunt today. I have to say that Fiona was absolutely AWESOME!! She attended to our every request with a smile and some great chatter. Fiona is a true asset to the Mulberry Tree at Ruxley! GIVE HER A RAISE!!! The food was outstanding too. A really lovely afternoon tea with the best scone I have ever had in my life. So thank you to Fiona for making our afternoon so special. And thanks to the kitchen for the beautiful food. I booked this afternoon tea as an early Mother’s Day treat and I am so glad we went. It was perfect and I highly recommend!”

“Food is delicious and portion size is good. Ordered Mushroom chow mein, mixed veg fried rice, schezwan chicken and salt and pepper chicken. Much better( price wise as well as taste wise) than the competitors in high street…wish they had dine-in options as well!”

“We had the most amazing experience with the Greek Way. Katerina and her team were so friendly and accommodating to our needs. They travelled roughly 60 miles to us and the food still came hot and fresh. Everyone absolutely loved it at our work event. The tzatziki was beyond mouth-watering we would have all eaten a tub each! The meats were super tender and we had great options for our vegetarian's and vegans. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Greek caterer - we wouldn't look to go anywhere else. Thank you so much again!”

“I have had many bred shed burgers and breakfast muffins in my time. What can I say, always banging food. I always visit when I'm in the area. Chicken burgers are definitely my favourite. Onion jam with sausage muffin is all must. Yes, a little pricey but quality for sure. Thanks Ben”
