Booked to go here before the cinema and it was well worth it. A small menu of very tasty dishes. We had a burratina to start, which had a lovely sauce. The pumpkin ravioli was superb, my husband's lamb ragu was a little dry. The service was very attentive and I loved the decor. Would definitely go back!

Amazing hidden gem of Italian restaurant with truly seasonal menu, delicious food, and very good wallet-friendly prices for the quality of fresh seasonal food. Staff are super friendly, and the mix of clientele, singles, and families makes this a homey place with very good food. I had the pasta with monkfish and spider crab. If you read this review after mid-August, the menu would have changed as spider crabs won't be in season anymore. I was too full to have dessert, so I just took a pic of what's available.

Today I had the most delicious Authentic Italian food, Wow the olive oil, the seafood and the Gluten free dessert cake was all Amazing. Rich in taste with quality oozing through every bite. Thank you for such a lovely lunch. I attended on my own and was seen with such attentiveness as always. This Resturant is a must try when passing by West Norwood.

This is a wonderful place to grab a (delicious) coffee before your commute. The owners are incredibly welcoming and kind too – even letting me use their back room for a video call in an emergency. I highly recommend it!

It was a pleasure to work with Nick. He installed EV charging point on our house in compliance with all regulations, did his job fast and professional. Cannot recommend enough.

Rating: 5 / 5

Nick is very professional and responsive. Got Tesla charger installed, had problems with power tipping on calling Nick he exactly knew what the problem was as he has seen with other users, he took time came and replace the socket since then there is no problem. Nick doesn’t leave customer once the job is done he tries to help, educate customer with patience and fixes if required. Very happy with Nick’s services and would use him in future.

Having Nick install our EV charger was great from beginning to end. Communication was great, and he made clear what would be required before installation and also helped us obtain the OZEV grant. Would highly recommend his services.

Rating: 5 / 5

Nick was recommended to me by a neighbour and I’ve since had him carry out works twice in my property. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and thorough, and I’ll continue to keep going to him for any further jobs that need doing!

We were let down last minute by our previous Electrician, fortunately I came across PJ electrics & Kev by a family referral. They came to site on an agreed date & time, quoted with a quick turn around and have been professional from start to finish. Will 100% be using them from now on & if you are reading these reviews then you have no reason to look any further! Thanks guys

Being a property manager for a local estate agent, that covers London and Surrey, I am always in need of good contractors, and P J Electrics have never disappointed. They are reliable, efficient, and great at communicating all aspects of their work. I have had nothing but positive feedback from both our landlords and tenants. Kevin has been great to deal with, and I now wont use any other electricians for all our rental properties.

I called Sean from PJ electrics recently and he was polite and courteous and offered to provide a free quote. Ryan came along and confirmed the job. Ryan and John were prompt, polite and respectful - I even handed them the keys so they could let themselves in/out. The work was speedy, done to an excellent standard and they left my shed spotless! I am 100% pleased with this work - you should try this company - they have “good old-fashioned” values (well mannered, great work ethic and polite) you won’t be disappointed!

Excellent service, reliable, fair, and a great quality of workmanship with an attention to detail - I would definitely recommend PJ Electrics London (I dealt with Sean the Ops Director & Ryan the Engineer)

Very impressed with the service provided by Diligent Electrical Contractors! Ishmael was friendly, super helpful and fitted our new bathroom extractor fan quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend!

Rating: 5 / 5

Ishmael was so helpful when he came to look at my electrics in my flat. He clearly explained everything to me, was tidy, efficient and quickly came back the next day to fix it for me. So great! I'll defo be using Diligent again and recommending Ishmael!

Ishmael from Diligent Electrical Contractors replaced some outdoor lighting and motion sensors for us. We have also previously engaged him for an electrical survey. He was very prompt at communicating in advance of the job and gave a great service. We would definitely contact again for future electrical work.

Rating: 5 / 5

Pretty happy with the service. Diligent installed a new bathroom extractor fan and works perfectly. There's no more mould. I had to wait 3 weeks before writing this review to test it. I also had a problem with my oven which kept on switching off after 60 seconds. I asked 2 electricians beforehand and they kept telling me my oven is broken even though it was only 2 years old. Diligent replaced one of the boards on the electric box and explained the actual reason. The oven works perfectly fine now.

Nice place for decent coffee. Tried the pistachio cookie today 🍪, and it was sensational. All of the homemade baked goods look scrumptious - I look forward to trying more.

Such a great place! The coffee is high quality, much much better than the chain coffee shops you see! Really friendly staff, great vibes. The cakes are absolutely delicious & homemade, by Chloe you gotta try. The Turkish sandwich I had was also extremely yummy, everything is so fresh. I will definitely be back here when I’m in the area! Thanks Chloe and Ismail. They were very welcoming as I waited for hours to get my car fixed opposite, thank goodness they were there. *I CAME BACK AGAIN! Full Turkish breakfast was amazing! All so fresh. Homemade bread, jam & FETA! Delicious.* I am certainly becoming a regular. :)

Outstanding customer service and delicious food. Very high quality. I could not ask for anything more. Together with my partner, we are new to the neighbourhood, but this place definitely is worth trying out. Living Proof that the food was delightful is fact we went to the place twice in the row!

Beautifully installed boiler. Now every time I open the utility door I am happy. Absolutely beautiful. The team stayed till 2 AM in the morning to finish the work, it is unheard of in this country.

Rating: 5 / 5

Really lovely experience dealing with Andrew , the installation was quick and efficient. We got the boiler in 2 days later after the one we had broke . Usually you would have to wait at least 7-14 days for a new boiler to be delivered. He even repainted for us ! Will definitely be using him again for anything we need and would highly recommend him to other people Thanks so much Andrew !!

I cannot recommend this service highly enough. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I had no water Saturday morning, and arranged a visit with Andre for Sunday in the 12-5 appointment window. I had a restaurant booking for 2pm Sunday I had forgotten about and when I called Andre to see if he can please come closer to 5 so I wouldn’t miss my outing, he went above and beyond for me!! He arrived within a few hours (late on a Saturday night,) checked my boiler out, and came back this (Sunday) morning at 8am with my new boiler. and a helping hand to have it installed. I write this with a new boiler installed about 24 hours after reporting the problem, on my way to my booking with no problems. Never has something that felt like a crisis gone so smoothly. Thank you SO much Andre!!!! He was also careful and considerate with my very curious cat and I really appreciate that as well. A friendly guy who does a great job. I will absolutely be recommending this service to anyone I can, and hope this review has helped you decide this is definitely the right company to call. 🤝

Outstanding service from Andrei and colleagues who installed a Joule unvented cylinder for me recently at very short notice. Very professional and skilled work carried out with real care and attention. Andrei also did some extra light installations. Highly recommend Andrei - nothing is too much trouble!

Michael was great. Prompt reply and turned up on time. Clearly very knowledgeable and fixed the complicated issue with the outside lights to my yoga studio quickly and reasonably. Would definitely recommend. Now my studio Sarah Brown Yoga @The Cabin has working outside lights. Thank you Michael!

Michael was great. He replied to my message really quickly and came to my house the day after I contacted him. He fixed our problem quickly and even gave my husband tips on how to fix it himself next time so we wouldn't have to pay for an electrician. So impressed! He also seemed a genuinely nice guy :)

Rating: 5 / 5

Mike truly impressed me with his exceptional service. Not only did he complete the project promptly and within the agreed-upon budget, but he also brought a refreshing sense of humor to the job, making the experience enjoyable from start to finish. We shared a few laughs along the way, which added a personal touch to the professionalism he demonstrated throughout. Moreover, the quality of Mike's workmanship was outstanding. He paid meticulous attention to detail and ensured that every aspect of the electrical work was executed to perfection. From installation to testing, his expertise shone through, and I felt confident in the reliability and safety of the completed work. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Mike. His combination of reliability, professionalism, and excellent craftsmanship makes him a standout choice. I wouldn't hesitate to enlist his services again in the future.

Michael did an amazing job replacing our ancient consumer unit with a new one. He worked really efficiently and methodically, explained everything we needed to know and went above and beyond in the checks he did around the house. He was great!
