Skilled artisans in London

“Having done a few upholstery classes and understanding a little more about what’s possible, I contacted Sharon at Vintique to discuss reformatting my old Multiyork sofa. Her amazing communication skills and ‘can do’ attitude were such a contrast to other upholsterers I had used. My scribbled diagram of my old long sofa quickly became a plan to completely change it into an ‘L’ shaped sofa with the addition of a bespoke built corner piece. Sharon did a video call with me to see the space so she could start to suggest fabrics and colours - and patiently sent me so many samples until we got on the perfect scheme. The finished sofa is a triumph and I unreservedly recommend her to anyone thinking of reupholstering a cherished piece of furniture.”

“I recently had Thomas Carpentry craft a bespoke wardrobe, chest of drawers, and dressing table for my dressing room project, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results! Their attention to detail was exceptional—every element, from the stunning beading on the wardrobe and dressing table to the perfectly executed mirror doors, was exactly as I envisioned. The paintwork and overall finish were outstanding, elevating the entire space. The whole project came together so nicely! Working with Ben and Alex was an absolute pleasure; they were professional, polite, tidy, clean, hardworking, and incredibly easy to collaborate with. I highly recommend Thomas Carpentry for their exceptional craftsmanship , professionalism and dedication to bringing my ideas to life!”

“We want to say a big thank you to the whole team at Stanford, especially Ken, Fiona and Richard. The design process was very thorough. We must have changed our minds over a dozen times, but Ken had great patience with us. We had a couple of minor issues with installation, but the team worked professionally and promptly to rectify. We are delighted with our kitchen and would happily recommend Stanford Design for anyone wanting a new kitchen.”

“L&S were recommended to me by a close friend and I couldn't be happier with the engagement ring that I bought from them. I had an initial meeting with Lyes regarding what I wanted and he created a 3D rendering based on this before proceeding. This perfectly matched what I asked for. The ring was then made within about a month of giving the go ahead and it was just perfect. My partner couldn't have been happier with the ring. I would highly recommend to anyone!”

“Emma is a pleasure to work with, she's been a big part of our wedding fun, from designing my dream engagement ring with Nick, to creating a full set of beautiful matching items for me to wear on our special day. We can't thank her enough for the wonderful pieces she's created us and would throughly recommend her.”

“Have known Rob for quite some years and he recently did my Husbands funeral flowers which were stunning. The funeral Director bought them back to our house and they have lasted so long.”

“Food is amazing. Service is good. Feels like a family owned business. Atmosphere is just ok, but I wouldn’t come here for a special day. The rolls were really good, and I loved the truffle beef and the black cod. We will come back to try more things from their menu.”

“Really good food. Would definately reccomend if visiting london”

“Good value coffee but not cut on quality, not one of the best but not bad at all for the price, nice food, and accompanied with smile and positive service from the staff .”

“Lovely cosy cafe run by Anna & Sylvia who are SO welcoming, friendly, go the extra mile and serve delicious homemade focaccias, pasta, soups & coffee! I love it here, it’s so wholesome and the food/coffees were amazing! I’ve been looking for really well made sandwiches with lots of love & flavour for a while, I found you!”

“We visited this lovely café and were very impressed with the quality of the food and the service provided! The staff work extremely hard and obviously put care and attention into the ingredients and presentation of each dish. This is clearly a popular brunch spot and, although there was a queue outside and a wait, we were still made to feel wanted and the staff communicated wait times to get us seated as quickly as possible. I had the Nutella pancakes, which were very tasty- a generous portion too, served with a variety of fresh fruits. Highly recommended”

“Specialty coffee, rustic, warm and welcoming vibes. Don, the owner is such a nice dude. Coffee is excellent. Homemade tiramisu really good too!”

“I needed two benches for a holiday home where I’m not always there. Hardly anyone could promise accurate delivery details as most outsource it. Corido were fab. They answer the phone (amazing!). They do their own delivery and use WhatThreeWords. So they delivered exactly where I asked even though I wasn’t there. And the benches are great too.”

“Amazing repair service, I cannot recommend them enough. I brought in two rings needing extremely complex repairs. They were very honest and told me they would need to find a new enamel expert for one of them, and called me back after a week to say they had found someone who had come highly recommended but they couldn't vouch for him personally. I gave the go ahead-- and the work was absolutely amazing, But I really appreciated that they were so upfront about it. The second ring, also an antique, had been turned away by countless jewelers in both India and the US as being unrepairable but their jeweler was able to really bring it back to life.”

“We had an absolutely amazing experience designing my engagement ring and also our wedding bands with We Are Arrow. The store is chic, contemporary, and we loved their ring designs. This is definitely not the last time purchasing something beautiful from this store :)”

“Used to visit this shop many years ago when I was working near Lower Marsh and met my husband. He used to pop in and get me little things which I still have. I visited today on what would have been my Silver Anniversary having lost him last year. I bought a little turquoise bracelet and the lady was most lovely to me which really helped.brighten a very sad day. So glad the.shop is still there selling lovely things. Thank you.”

“The gentleman there was so lovely , so kind and made our day, offered us some baklava too, the service is 100000/10. May Allah keep making his business expand!”
