Selection in Beckenham

“Bought a tree from the shop today very reasonably priced with loads of options in sizes and shapes. Great customer service would highly recommend.”

“Very pleased with the chair cushions and footstool covered. The work is exceptional, with a beautiful finish. All done in less than a week for a good price. Highly recommend!”

“Been here many times and have always had a warm welcome from the owner/manager and the staff. Natasha is always so helpful and friendly. We normally have the set menu that is great value. We will be booking for Sunday Lunch next week.There are a lot of restaurants in Beckenham beginning with the letter P but none of them compare with the service and food at Papilios !”

“I had had a busy day about in Bromley and arrived early from that to a reservation I'd made that day for early dinner (18:15). Prices were properly reasonable for such fine dining. The presentation of each course was spot on, I'd even say en place, buuuuut not my element at this time. The maître d' was professional and courteous. I felt a bit under-dressed but braved through and they brought no attention to this and treated me. At some spirit auguery advice, my royal self reluctantly avoided steak this evening, going instead from chef's suggestion menu, the seared scallops and then sea bass. The scallops were grilled, and tender rather than rubbery as I sometimes 'expect' of scallop. I'd had some grilled halloumi around lunch tiem, and joked that scallops would be right out to pair with halloumi. I think there is this. The sea bass were served seared with skin on, and a sweet tomato salsa, with a potato tower of some kind. Service were quiet and excellent. I did not once feel rushed and I NEEEEED to return for some côte de boeuf or rib-eye some day soon. This should be written. I'll be needing dress better suited. Until then, I recommend that you do visit Branded Bromley if you should. ~ Lord Amadea-El, 6 November 2025 35:35 gmt24”

“Top Award Staying Open Later than Tesco.”

“Really lovely independent shop!”

“This is a no nonsense sports bar and the only one in Beckenham (the others are masquerading as sports bars - no sound on TVs and pushchairs everywhere). The bar staff are brilliant and work hard, plenty of big screens with different sport catered for. I’m delighted to be kept safe by management taking security seriously..”

“GOOD SELECTION OF RED WINE AND ALES AND LOCAL BREWERIES AND BEERS PRICE ARE REASONABLE”

“I have been to this shop a few times and every time they have been friendly and helpful.”

“The guys in this store are so welcoming, always say hello and ask how i am. Im disabled and these guys(all of them) offer to take my basket and help me shop. Ive never had this service in my life. Ive made friends with these guys,Billy,Ryan,Bev and its like nothing ive experienced before. These guys are absolutely brilliant. Coop should be so proud of all these guys. Many thanks ,Nige”

“Very convenient and pleasant shop. Fresh vegetables, meat etc. Could pay with cash. Handy for bus routes 356, 358, & 194.”

“Plenty plenty plenty of nik naks. YIPPEE”

“Wonderful service.. Fabulous wine... The best beer going... Top ratings..”

“Absolutely the best charity shop in Beckenham. The staff are very nice and helpful. It’s always a pleasure to visit. Highly recommended!”

“Only place that has 200 gram cadburys tiffin bar in a 6 mile radius. cadburys pull your finger out and make deliveries to the supermarkets again”

“The creamiest, most succulent pasta in the south east. Just don’t order the vegan dishes - as they are more flavourless than water I think it was just an unlucky experience, so I’ll be the bigger person and look beyond this unfortunate experience. 5* otherwise”

“Discovered flat tyre and luckily wasn't far from this garage. Called up, fitted us in just as they were closing on a Friday afternoon, and did a fantastic job for a great price. Highly recommend.”

“Only wish I'd found these guys sooner .... I visited the shop last week as needed some help with my sofa cushions. Ian couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. Quick turnaround on the sofa cushions and I now have a sofa that not only looks a thousand times better but is comfortable to sit on and doesn't aggravate my knee as I'm much higher up. Such a happy customer, I have a number of other jobs in the pipeline and certainly know where I will be going from how on! It's so refreshing to meet a business who keep in touch and contact you when they say they will.”

“Had a lovely time here with my family. Food was very nice and plenty of tables to choose from. Would definitely go again.”

“We were very impressed with the professionalism and workmanship of Anderson Hardy Kitchens. From the initial design phase, to the advice we received to ensure that the project remained within budget, to the communication regarding timings for the installation and the final finished product. We have no hesitation in recommending them.”

“My dog loves this pets shop i have been taking her there from 6 weeks old now 2 years old she loves the owners and she loves going there to get her dog food and to say hello to the owners that have met my dog at 6 weeks old my dog never likes leaving the pets shop she loves it there x”

“There was a young guy with curly hair who was working there last Saturday. He seemed really friendly and nice when spoken to. Which was something I really appreciated when coming into the shop not in the best mood. He is doing a great job.”

“The best restaurant for miles around. I love this place. The staff are wonderful, the food is outstanding. Its also very reasonable. The best.”

“Had a meal here recently to celebrate a birthday with friends and had a pleasant experience. Elegant interiors and friendly staff greeted us and we were led to our table. It was a bit busy but we didn't feel rushed or that the place was bursting. Good wine, delicious hot chocolate and since it was a Sunday afternoon, we decided to get the seafood starter lamb and seafood roast. The food was delicious and elegantly plated and looked like art. The courgette fries were a bit disappointing though as they were soggy and the coating had all vanished so it felt like we were having raw courgette slices. That tiny blip aside, the afternoon went perfect and the cheesecake at the end made it even more memorable.”

“Lovely coffee shop really close to the station, not the place to be sitting on your laptop (my mistake) it’s hustle and bustle and friendly customer service is great if you’re just stopping by and having a good catchup. But wouldn’t stay for long as it’s a tiny space. Definitely recommend for good coffee and quality baked goods. Had the blackberry danish was so good I forgot to take a photo!”

“Staff friendly and helpful. Quality of food excellent. Large choice of menu. Premises always very clean and tidy. As soon as a table is vacated, the table is cleared and cleaned. Would recommend Hutch's highly.”

“Great pub, fantastic atmosphere PS they don't do food, but their sister pub The Chancery (next door) does an excellent menu!”

“We wanted to taste some wines to select for our wedding and were unfortunately unable to make any of the special wedding tasting sessions but Jess at Majestic Beckenham went out of her way to be accommodating. We had a little tasting session at the weekend where she had already selected wines she thought we’d like based on what we’d told her. She guided us through the different wine options, advised us on quantities to purchase and was just generally fantastic. Amazing service especially as we weren’t even ordering the wine through the Beckenham store as our wedding is in Leicester (we also had great service when we called to place the order with the Leicester store). I would highly recommend majestic if you’re looking to bulk buy wine for an event and want some guidance. Thanks again to Jess!”

“Great little bar serving beers and wines on the Elmers End Green, Enjoy a pint or two and a wine and nibbles while watching the world go by. Fleur and her staff are excellent hosts amicable and friendly. Great friendly atmosphere.”
