Traditional elements in London

“This place is amazing!! There is an incredible range of smoking accessories, papers and lighters! Also Incense, crystals and more!! The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful! I like the atmosphere it's very chill and relaxed shopping :) The Piercier is Fabulous!!! I cannot compliment her enough! I've had 3 piercings here, and each time they were done very professionally. Very clean and hygienic, she makes sure you're 100% informed and happy before the piercings, throughout and after the process!!”

“Afternoon tea at the Rosewood London was outstanding. The setting is beautiful, the food is thoughtful and delicious, and the whole experience feels special from the moment you sit down. What stood out most was the staff, who were exceptional in every way, warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They made the entire service feel effortless and refined. A perfect afternoon and truly one of the best tea experiences in London.”

“Amazing gem in Forest Hill and some of best Japanese style food I’ve had in a long time. Beautiful season specials too and really wonderful desserts. Considering the quality of food I’d say this place is value for money. I look forward to more evenings here. The decor is cute. Nice for a quick meal, solo dining, a date, friendly hangout or special occasion. The waitress is very good at her job and felt really well we were not rushed, well attended to and taken care of. I saw they also do some good take away deals.”

“Had a fantastic meal everything cooked to perfection.Had a starter to share main courses and 2 beers, exalent value for the money.Very friendly and helpful staff. Arrived early evening, got a table straight away only a small restaurant, did start to fill up quite quickly. I'm definitely going back .”

“The lunch and dinner deals are excellent value. You get to pretty much choose any starter and mains on the a la carte menu. I had a xiao long bao and a bowl of noodle for the main, all for under £15. The service was quick and efficient, great for a quick lunch bite.”

“We were in London recently and we wanted to try somewhere different to the other places we had eaten at previously, and we were so glad we discovered Orient. We were greeted by a very friendly young lady who gave my girlfriend advice (as she doesn't like too spicy food) on some recommendations, and I was delighted to see that they done an extensive curry range (as some of the places we had visited in Chinatown previously did not have any curry's on the menu). The decor was very nice and the place was very clean. ALL the staff we dealt with were so friendly and they could not have been anymore helpful, and we were given ample time to browse the menu at their extensive menu range. The service was very quick. On our first visit I got prawn crackers and sesame prawn toast for a starter. And the main I chose a beef curry with Thai fragrance steamed rice. The beef was absolutely beautiful, it was thinly cut and was SO tender and perfectly cooked. The rice was perfectly cooked. My girlfriend got Spring Rolls for a starter, and for her main she got sweet & sour spare ribs, and she said it was absolutely beautiful. On our second visit I got a lamb curry with the Thai fragranced steamed rice and my girlfriend got Pork belly with preserved vegetables and noodles and beansprouts, and again it was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. Another thing I will add is we both got the Lychee juice, and it was lovely, and it went very nicely with our food, and we had not seen this type of juice at other places. And again on our second visit the staff were exceptionally friendly and the service again, very quick. We both were of the same opinion that the Orient will be our go to place for a Chinese meal when we are in London, and we both cannot wait to go back again and sample their delicious food again.”

“Best Chinese and Korean food. I eat here alot of the time.”

“Love, absolutely gorgeous, only one tiny criticism, it’s just a little long for me, and my size is a normal 52, so l would say buy one size smaller.”

“A great hotel with excellent value for money. It is very conveniently located, just a 6 minute walk from Victoria tube station and therefore 25 minutes by public transport from St Pancras station and Buckingham Palace! The room was perfect, spotlessly clean, the beds very comfortable and honestly one of the best showers I have ever had! The staff are very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend it!”

“Great service, food tastes delicious, London restaurant standard. Give it a try,”

“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.”

“I love my new haircut done by Lorenzo! He took on board all my wishes and concerns before advising what would be great for my hair. It is really hard to find a good master in London, I've been to many, they pretend to understand your concerns, but do exactly what you asked them not to. Highly recommend Kaizo! Will definitely come back.”

“Fantastic staff, very helpful and friendly. Always have great experience in the Bluewater store and thank you to Sophie for all her help.”

“What a wonderful little restaurant! Despite having very high expectations due to all the great reviews, my family and I were still surprised at how great this place was. The sashimi pieces were lovely and thick, their signature rolls were delicious but our favourite was the udon (unfortunately not pictured as we were too busy slurping it up!)- the noodles were cooked to perfection. Would highly recommend this place for the delicious food and the lovely attentive staff!”

“Lovely food! Fresh and quick service. Would definitely recommend”

“It was our first time here. My mum who complains about all types of places we visit for food said the food is "excellent". We loved the food and the portion sizes are huge!! Nicely decorated for Halloween, restaurant has a nice ambience. Staff are really friendly. Everything was wonderful. Thank you, we will visit again!”

“The meal we knew would be great, but to be honest it was it was phenomenal... The service was genuinely brilliant, we felt more like one of their friends than customers... Absolutely amazing place... thank you so much.”

“I’ve been here twice now, and both times were great! The portions are huge. The big breakfast is no joke. The food is delicious, and the service is amazing. The pesto was so good that my friend even got one to take away. I haven’t tried any of their desserts yet, but I’ll definitely be back to give them a go! Side note: They only accept cash so don't forget to bring some cash with you!”

“I visited Aetos Taverna as I would always walk past it and wanted to try it. I love Greek cuisine and it is fair to say that it did not disappoint me at all. The food was full of flavour and the portions are very generous. I often come here with family to enjoy dinner or lunch. The atmosphere is very friendly and the family staff make you feel like home!!”

“Delicious pizzas, cozy atmosphere and great service, the perfect combo!! As an Italian, this is the perfect spot that makes you really feel at home. I became a regular customer since I discovered them. Everything is simply unique, from the Italian style aperitif (£15 drink of your choice plus a stunning board full of delicious things) to the amazing pizzas! The waiter Corrado, is extremely kind and friendly. Really recommend this place, you want regret!”

“Great atmosphere if you sit outside. There are usually plenty of tables that can accommodate you even without a reservation. The staff is very polite and considerate. The food comes quite quickly. I loved the takoyaki, prawn tempura, and salmon don. It is a great place for Japanese food.”

“Amazing food. Not our first visit and for sure won't be the last. If there's a restaurant I can suggest, this is the one. Keep up the good work Menara. You have a loyal customer here. Thank you”

“Was fortunate enough to get a last minute dinner reservation at the counter, which was a great experience! The restaurant is a short walk from Old Street station. Nest offers seasonal menus and my visit was during Beef Season. Unfurling the wax-sealed menu revealed two set menu options, the short menu or longer signature menu, which I went with. A wine pairing is available however I chose my own drinks. Over the next two hours I was treated to eleven courses of incredible cooking. Despite being Beef Season the menu was interspersed with some seafood and vegetable items as well, although they had found creative ways to incorporate beef in many of the courses. I enjoyed all the dishes but some of my favourites were the tempura oyster with bone marrow mayonnaise, the sirloin carpaccio and Highland beef. Sitting at the kitchen counter added to the experience, you could tell the chefs were passionate from the way they worked together and the way they explained each dish and how they had made it. To drink I had a Nest Negroni and a glass of Slovakian red wine, both of which were excellent and served promptly. The drinks list is extensive and will suit most tastes. Nest is in an area with lots of competition and certainly holds its own. It was a great meal and I would love to return to try another season!”

“The food at Yasmin was absolutely delicious - one of the tastiest meals I have had in a long time. The staff were friendly and attentive and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We will return.”

“Lovely small takeaway please, crispy bhajiya on spot…. So delicious can’t get enough of them. Staff are friendly too”

“Had they same dishes compared to Aladin from across the street, the food was much better and the chapatti’s were made fresh and the lamb vindaloo was delicious, and they serve alcohol.”

“As good as it gets in one of the best cities in the world for culinary. Well worth the Michelin star as the food is exquisite and the experience is outstanding. Having lived in Seoul for 2 years, I can honestly say that Sollip provides the quintessential tastes and aromas of Korean cuisine without ever overpowering any dish. Wizardry on a plate and provided by an excellent front of house staff. Loved it”

“Very tasty food, nice and fresh. Guy is very chatty and friendly. Is a nice spot for a quick lunch while you are about in Canary Wharf. A chicken gyros box within the most tasty that I have ever had! Come down and support small businesses like this”

“Wow, wow, wow — what an unforgettable experience! The moment I walked into Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, I was blown away by its sheer scale and beauty. Everywhere you looked, there were rows and rows of seats stretching endlessly, making it feel absolutely grand. The stage setup was massive, with a stunning ramp that stretched all the way into the middle of the ground. Sitting close to the stage gave us the perfect view — we could see Arijit up close, and at the same time, the breathtaking sight of the entire stadium lit up behind us. The production quality was mind-blowing. From the digital visuals to the lighting, sound, and overall presentation, everything was world-class. It wasn’t just a concert - it was a complete experience that blended music, visuals, and atmosphere into something magical. This wasn’t just another show; it was history being made, and I feel lucky to have witnessed it.”

“We had the absolute best time at this gem of a theatre. Arrived early and spent time in the gorgeous bar, where the drinks were on point. Ordered food to enjoy during the movie. The theatre itself is kitted out with two person sofas. You pick where you want to sit beforehand. There ain’t a bad seat in the place. Our food and more drinks were delivered before the show started. The service was excellent, friendly and prompt. Can’t wait to come back here again. Thanks for a great night!”
