The 30 Best Unique stores 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.”

“Novi is the BEST espresso room / coffee shop in the ‘Nam without exception. It’s the warmth of the welcome as much as it is the delights within!”

“Top Award Staying Open Later than Tesco.”

“I just love this shop. Beautiful skirts, tops and Jelly Cat toys galore! Me and the kids can’t walk past without popping in. Plus the staff are super friendly and helpful. Also great for last minute gifts for kids, adults, grandparents! Pop in if you haven’t already”

“Really lovely independent shop!”

“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.”

“Special mention to the staff, particularly manager David, who went above and beyond in making sure my bike was safe while my Mum and I watched the Downton Abbey film! So helpful and a pleasure to chat with.”

“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!”

“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”

“Wouldn’t get a tattoo from anyone else. Hollie and the team are so talented, welcoming and accommodating. Have been several times and I have been nothing but over the moon with Hollie’s work. For the (more than reasonable) price you can’t get better!”

“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.”

“We have tried a small number of groomers in the past and Hugo has been so nervous and reluctant to go the last groomer, due to an incident... But then we found Eddie's!! The girls are absolutely amazing, Hugo runs up the stairs to see them and his tail is happy wagging the entire time. He always looks extra handsome once he comes out! I am so so happy with their service and would recommend to everyone. Also, the shop is amazing and we always get the best treats when we go!”

“Been coming here for months now , I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Dan has designed my sleeve and I am extremely happy with it. The tattoo technique and art is amazing ! Alex is great to , amazing colour work. I am certainly a loyal customer. Highly recommended for first tattoos and tattoos in general. Thank you for everything ☺️”

“From the moment you step inside, the aroma of freshly ground coffee and buttery croissants wraps around you like a cashmere scarf. The interior? Think sun-drenched nooks with velvet armchairs, vintage bookshelves, and fairy lights that twinkle like captured stars. It’s Instagram-worthy without trying too hard. I ordered the lavender honey latte and the avocado toast with poached eggs and truffle oil—and let me tell you, my taste buds threw a party. The latte was silky, floral, and perfectly balanced (not a hint of soapiness, which is a lavender crime I’ve suffered elsewhere). The toast? Crispy sourdough, creamy avocado, eggs cooked to runny perfection, and that truffle oil… chef’s kiss. Portions are generous but not overwhelming, and every ingredient screams quality. The staff? Absolute angels. My barista, Leo, noticed I was sketching and brought over a tiny complimentary matcha madeleine “for inspiration.” Service this thoughtful should be illegal. Even the playlist—lo-fi jazz with a sprinkle of French pop—feels”

“I’ve found my favourite breakfast spot. Having moved to the area recently I came here for the first time for some breakfast. The menu was great - there were so many amazing and healthy options to choose from. Similarly, they offer delicious smoothie options. My breakfast came out beautifully presented and tasted amazing. One of the best I’ve had in a long time. The service was super prompt and friendly too! Can’t wait to come back!”

“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!”

“Very nice café with a good vibe, i ordered the ham & cheese toastie which was really tasty yet not very expensive (around 5 pounds). I strongly recommand if you live around Eden Park !”

“Baylee was so friendly. The açai bowl was lovely too!”

“A proper 10/10 place here. I came with my friends and dog and the service was incredible - very kind - and may I say super homemade cakes! We highly recommend it!”

“We used Branching out for funeral flowers. The staff were so welcoming and helpful. We had some unusual ideas and they listened and gave advice and the drinks while we deliberated were very welcome! On they day of the funeral were were absolutely delighted with the flowers. They were beautifully arranged, vibrant and just what we imagined. They really brightened a very sad day for us. Thank you so much.”

“Gorgeous coffee and cake and friendly, helpful service. Only thing I’d change was the lack of choice for gluten free – though the mandarin and chocolate chip slice I had was top notch. Oh! Love the garden out the back, too! Wish I lived closer to visit again!”

“Went today this Deli today to get the lovely Italian ham they have which is very tasty. The Deli was quite busy and I they clearly needed another member of the team to help although the lovely lady who served me was so professional and polite. She stayed calm under pressure from people that definitely should be more polite. (Be kind) Manners cost nothing. Well done to Kaley:)”

“I am so happy with the bits I have ordered from BabyQ, the quality and designs are so sweet and have made the perfect gifts! Very well presented and packaged, easy to navigate around the website, I really recommend!!”
