Staff knowledge in Richmond

“The best Breakfast in the area!! Proper English Breakfast, delicate coffee, super friendly staff, not noisy inside at all... That is what you need for a hangover :) Seriously: the owner/boss is a great guy and it is not only my opinion, the staff says the same too and maybe this is the recipe for Cappuccino success. Always smiling Klaudia and Asia will help you with delicious choices, been there so many times, just love it! Kids friendly place too, no matter how busy the place is. Merry Christmas from Maciej and family... and C u after New Years!! :)”

“I’ve been visiting this lovely café in Putney quite often lately, and it’s become one of my go-to spots in the area. The atmosphere is calm and inviting never too noisy, just the right place to relax, read, or catch up with friends. The staff are always friendly and attentive, and there’s a genuine warmth in the service that makes you feel welcome every time you walk in. The coffee is consistently good, smooth and full of flavor. You can tell they care about quality; every cup feels freshly made. But what truly stands out here is their banana bread it’s freshly baked every morning, perfectly moist, and has that subtle hint of cinnamon that makes it irresistible. It’s simple but absolutely delicious, and no surprise that it sells out quickly during the day. Beyond coffee and pastries, the food menu is also impressive. They have tasty brunch options and light meals that are fresh, well-prepared, and nicely presented. Everything feels made with care rather than rushed or pre-made. Overall, this place has a really nice vibe great coffee, fresh food, and genuinely kind people. Definitely worth a visit if you’re around Putney!”

“I recently visited Artisan Coffee, just a short 5-minute walk from Putney Station, and had such a lovely experience! There’s an Italian barista there who truly stands out – she is warm, hospitable, and has such a kind, welcoming presence. She makes excellent coffee with great attention to detail, and her patience and friendly attitude toward every customer really make the café feel special. It’s rare to find someone so professional yet genuinely caring. Highly recommend this spot for both the amazing coffee and the wonderful service!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review for Toolstation Putney As part of my work with Handyman Arts, I often find myself needing quality tools and materials at short notice. One day, I was doing a job in Putney when a customer urgently needed a bathroom fan replacement. Time was tight, and I didn’t want to keep the client waiting. Luckily, Toolstation Putney was just a five-minute drive away. I popped in and immediately found exactly what I needed. The staff were incredibly helpful, guiding me straight to the right product. The customer service was spot on – quick, friendly, and professional. This kind of support makes a real difference for small businesses like mine. Thank you, Toolstation Putney – you saved the day and helped me keep my client happy! —Khaled Handyman Arts”

“I am so going back there! It was a very quick visit for a few potatoes, however, I saw fruits and vegetables I'd not really heard of before. Looking forward to expanding my knowledge, and pallet, with different veggies! Oh, saw them and couldn't resist.. fresh Queen olives, garlic and chilli. Nearly forgot the potatoes! :)”

“This is a very cosy delicatessen with a great range of Italian products in accessible prices, classics such as Pan di Stelle (my favourite) but also with a carefully selected and sourced choice of cheese and ham from Italy and many other great gourmet foods (Sicilian olive oil and pistachio cream changed my life ”

“I live nearby and love popping in here, usually for coffees and croissants. Nice sourdough bread too. Lovely friendly staff. A little bit of Sicily/Italy in Ham :)”

“We were served by Fabiene and Eric at the Richmond store on Saturday and it was possibly the best sales experience we’ve ever experienced, regardless of what we were purchasing. The store room itself was stunning and from the second we arrived we were looked after brilliantly by both Fabiane and Eric. Fabiane was attentive without ever being pushy, and knows so much about the products offered. We felt very comfortable to make our purchase with her support. She also offered a box of toys to keep our two young children entertained (game changer!) and we were served a hot drink within minutes of entering the store. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Raft Richmond to anyone, and infact already have!”

“Absolutely LOVELY staff. We come here regularly, even when we don't need to buy anything for our pets - my kids love looking at the animals. Always made to feel welcome and always pleasantly surprised at how friendly and knowledgeable the staff are.”

“I recently bought a gift for my wife from this jeweller and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful in helping me find the perfect piece of jewellrey. The selection was also fantastic, with a wide range of beautiful and unique pieces to choose from. The gift was a huge hit with my wife, and I know I'll be returning to this jeweller for future purchases. Highly recommend!”

“Love, love, love caffè mamma. My favourite is the pollo Milanese - followed by zabaglione, fresh, hot and frothy. Their limoncello spritz is also worth trying. Yum.”

“Really excellent Italian restaurant. They fitted us in, despite it being a busy Friday in December. All the meals were delicious, though the tiramisu was beyond tasty”

“This is a good branch. Better than the Balham one IMHO. The pizza was cooked really well and thr restaurant is nicely laid out.”

“Great spot. Full of locals!!! Yummy snacks & coffees! I had the bagel with goats cheese & tomato. It was lovely. Cozy spot.”

“We had the most fantastic service from all of the team especially Usha who was wonderful in helping with a few challenges as our daughter and partner were delayed in traffic. They transformed what could have been a stressful time into a lovely family occasion. Food quality was lovely and a perfect spacious setting and atmosphere to have a large group together. Would very highly recommend, we a great Sunday afternoon there. A special thank you to Usha for being so flexible, friendly and going above and beyond for us!!”

“Had my birthday party here last night. The staff are always so fabulous and make you feel so special. A wonderful gem of a pub in the heart of Putney. Can’t recommend enough!”

“I had a wonderful experienced here thank you to Theresa my hair stylist. I was a little tense at the beginning as I moved to Richmond a few months ago and this was my first time at Ozzie Rizzo. I had a scalp sensitivity after covid and Theresa was delicate and considerate. I love my hair cut and I look forward to going back.”

“Visitor to London on my way home to Dorset . Just want to say how much I appreciated the kindness they showed me today . Sunday 7/12/25 excellent customer service”

“I enjoy the quick in-and-out no wait in line grab and go experience of Amazon Fresh. I have now been half a dozen times and their food is good value and delicious. Ribs, fries, pastries, veg and fruit all good value and quality. The invoice via Amazon web or mobile app also shows you how long you were in the store! NO MORE WAITING!!”

“Excellent store, good parking available, plenty of EV chargers & local to richmond town centre”

“I had an absolute ball at this place .. I am 51 and was with my 12 year old niece! Climbing and Jumping! Super fun! The slide was ace too!”

“This is the happiest I've ever been at a hotel. Stayed for 6 nights. The bed was amazingly comfortable. Pillows were fantastic (two size options - yay!). The staff is so friendly. Easy check-in and check out. You are close to your neighbors but I didn't hear anyone. The window opened all the way for fresh air. There was also the Eur slot vent with the option to open or close, and an A/C (though I didn't try the A/C). The TV included a handful of channels and the option to login with Netflix. The blackout curtains worked really well (helpful for jet lag). Hot water was hot, water pressure was great. Waterfall and hand held showerheads. The location is walkable to two different train stations. Even in the middle of the night people were walking the streets regularly. It felt very safe. Local pubs had friendly vibes. Hotel bar had travelers in it regularly working or sipping on cocktails. Room came with cotton rounds (yay!), Qtips, shower cap (yay!), hair dryer, body wash, shampoo, conditioner from a good brand. Iron was available on request. Laundry services are a one-day turnaround, drop off morning, get it back at night. Sink basin closes should you need to hand wash. Complimentary tea and coffee in the room. The tea was particularly yummy. The coffee was Nepresso with a variety of pods. The fridge included snacks and alcohol for cost, prices listed. The room also has a safe. The whole hotel was very clean. To set expectations, the room is smaller compared to maybe what someone in the US would be used to (it's London after all). Hangers and one small drawer for your clothes. No full length mirror and no where to place anything in the shower (ie your razor). The shower's a bit tight. No lifts (again it's London) but they are happy to help you with your bags. This place just had a great vibe and getting a good night's sleep is such a privilege when traveling. Highly Recommend.”

“This was my first time dining here, and I was impressed with the quality of my meal. The staff were friendly, the service was speedy, and the atmosphere was relaxed but vibrant. I would recommend Kurk Grill Bar for a light evening meal and catch-up with friends. The portions are just right, so one felt sufficiently satisfied and not over-full, and the prices were more than reasonable.”

“I visited Pizza Express in East Sheen recently, and overall, it was a solid dining experience. We started with the classic Dough Balls – always a winner – soft and warm, with plenty of garlic butter. For mains, I went with the American, which had a nice kick and crispy thin crust. The service was friendly and fairly quick. The Staff were attentive and child friendly. My kids enjoyed the Piccolo menu. I would surely go back – especially with their seasonal offers and kids eat free deals.”

“I love this Costa and I’m a regular attendee! It’s so great having a community in Costa locally and the service is always phenomenal. Guthemberg, Melika and Nurjia are incredible and help brighten my day. Thank you for great service!”

“Quiet hostel with decent rooms. The room I stayed in had a twin bunk bed which was good for me since I was traveling alone. I stayed for one night . The downstairs is a bar in the evening. Overall it was a good hostel with a relaxed vibe.”

“Fixed my old vacumm cleaner for s very reasonable price and its back in good working order. Helpful guy who runs the store.”

“Great service - team was patient and knowledgeable but not "pushy" . Selection was just enough ie choice of 3-4 but not 15 (would be overwhelming for a novice like me). And there was a bit of sales on too so great to have a good price points.”

“Great place for trade products, very helpful and knowledgeable staff, parking is very limited. Would recommend reserve and collect to save time there.”

“Ordered the 9ct gold baby christening bracelet personalised, great quality and engraving. Fits baby perfectly. Quick delivery”
