Excellent service. Really happy with the work to put in our new lights. Arrived on time and put up some new lights, changed some bulbs and moved a light across into the middle of the room and then tidied up after. Was done really well and we got exactly what we wanted. Andrew was really nice and helpful. Would highly recommend!

Andrew has been to our house twice in the last couple of months to test our smoke alarm system and to install some new light fittings. His team was great, on time, very friendly and have gone above and beyond to get the job done for us on both occasions. We are very happy to have found an electrician nearby that is so reliable and fantastic!

Andrew came over to install some outdoor lighting on our patio. He was chatty and helpful in suggesting some better positioning for the lights for a more even coverage that we are really delighted with, ordered them that day and fitted them the next. Great service all round, will definitely be using again for the next stages.

We needed an extra set of plugs fitting to the corner of our living room. Andrew supplied and fitted the parts the same day, took great pride in his work and charged a very reasonable price. Would not hesitate to use his services again.

Been coming to the Bakehouse for years now. Location is beautiful, wonderful decorating inside and out. Emma and rest of staff are always friendly and very helpful. Food is locally sourced and beautifully cooked. Might have to wait a little if busy, buts will worth it. Refreshing to attend a business that promotes the use of cash

Went for breakfast and was pleasantly surprised with the food and service, which was very friendly. If you are after a traditional, quaint British cafe, then this is the place to go in and around Biddenden. I would happily go back here for food and drinks again. Highly recommended.

What a gem of a place 😁 if you pass and don't stop you will miss out. We were just on a mini break and happened to drop in and the staff, the food and the atmosphere were just lovely 😍 so jealous not to be local. Would be in as often as I could if I was.

Visited Sentido restaurant this week on a last minute decision to get some food and we was pleasantly surprised from the moment we arrived. The bar area was very welcoming with cozy areas to have a chilled drink and everything smelt incredible, The restaurant was bright and spacious. We ordered the mixed seafood paella and it was 10/10

A new offering in Sandhurst with the opening of this smart new Spanish restaurant, Sentido. We tried the Pinxtos and Tapas today and were very happy with our choices of Tortilla de patatas, Escalivada anchivies del Cantabrico, Selection of mini croquettes and Spanish semicurado manchego cheese, accompanied by a nice Rioja and an IPA. The owners, Carlos and Lourdes are very welcoming and takes time to have a chat when it's not busy and it was nice to hear about their vast experience in the Food and Hospitality business. Also, a shout out to Julie who was excellent at the front of house. We were so impressed by this place and have booked for a dinner date in 2 weeks. Thoroughly recommended if you are anywhere within driving distance of Sandhurst TN 18 5HY

Enjoyed an excellent meal here with the family during twixtmas. Food very good indeed with outstanding seafood including the best oysters I’ve had in years, perfectly served with finely diced shallots and vinegar. Very decent wine list too with some Spanish crackers and a good range of bottles under £35, with Cruzcampo on tap. Service brisk and charming. Lovely room too. The restaurant is not cheap but the cooking and ingredients justify the prices. Don’t expect to be served too quickly either - though that comes with cooking everything fresh to order. At £50 per head and given the wait, however, I wonder if some nibbles might be provided to start, maybe some salted almonds, to whet the appetite (and perhaps incentivise more drinks?). Keen to return for tapas soon - which look really superb value - with a bottle of something interesting. Some thought might be given to improving the informal area to encourage tapas trade, perhaps? Just really keen this place does well as we will definitely be back when next visiting mother. Bravo Lourdes and Carlos and the very best of luck.

Had a wonderful meal here last night. Service was polite and timely, lovely warm restaurant with a lovely feel and the food fantastic and very good value. We shared a meat paella between 3 and there was enough food for thirds. Delicious and definitely be back soon for Tapas. Great choice for a lovely meal

I have used MDL Electrical on various occasions for work on my commercial premises, a rental property and my home. In some ways they seem unremarkable, they turn up as arranged do a good job for a competative price and that's it. However this is exactly what I want, a courteous efficient Electrician with no delays or excuses. Just a great job first time everytime.

3 years ago I left this Italian cafe a 5 star review and thought that it was time to update it. This is still one of the best places to eat in Tenterden together with their sister restaurant Montalbano. The staff are absolutely amazing, so attentive and helpful. Sissy has blossomed since taking charge of the cafe and is extraordinary in her ability to make everyone feel welcome and special and manages the staff impeccably. Thanks also to Finley and Crem who also go above and beyond to ensure you have a great time. One other thing! They serve the best coffee and cake too!

INCREDIBLE JOB ! I have used Pete on other jobs before so had no hesitation of recommending him to my sister for her complete 'head to toe' rewire. As always Pete was hardworking, punctual, professional, clean, tidy, problem solving, polite and he always went over and beyond on what he had been asked to do to help. GREAT ideas on how to do things cost effectively and reasons behind every decision he made. His finishing is second to none, the work he put into the rewire is impeccable and I can honestly say, without hesitation that I would never use any other electrician again. I highly recommend P R Electrical for any job big or small as you are guaranteed to have the best job you will ever have. Thank you again Pete the bungalow looks fabulous.

Pete has been very helpful, identifying the problem as resolving. He’s very professional and kept us informed at all time, called and turned up when he said he would. He’s work is of good quality, he worked in a tidy, respectful manner. We will definitely use Pete again in the future, and would recommend.

Peter was very customer focused, arranging a visit to deal with our non emergency electrical issue within three days. Peter was professional and fixed the issue promptly with an invoice that was extremely good value for money. We would certainly use Peter again and recommend him.

We are new to the area and Pete has been a godsend. He’s carried out testing and investigation work on the whole house and helped us to map out a plan for tackling our project in phases. So far he’s helped us with two rooms which has included rewiring, moving and adding sockets, recessing sockets and switches (which were wall mounted), and installing spotlights. He’s booked in to do our living room soon. Pete is very transparent with pricing from the outset and is very fair and reasonable. He is also very upfront about what does and doesn’t need replacing / doing to help us stick to our budget. He’s really communicative and helpful (including with helping with our endless queries about the suitability of fittings we’re looking at). The plasterers we had to come round also commented on what a good job had been done on patching the walls back up after the cables had been chased in. I really wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Pete. This is our first project like this and his knowledge and experience has been invaluable and reassuring. He’s also a really pleasant, polite and considerate person to have in the house. He also leaves the place spotless after each visit.

Lovely owner run and managed cafe. Booked for brunch on a wet Easter Monday. Glad we reserved as it’s a small place and we were a big party. Lovely menu for big and little kids alike. We were greeted with a lovely smile and seated quickly. Orders were taken quickly. Drinks came quickly. Food was a little slower as it’s freshly made but well worth the wait. Cooked Breakfast and pancakes are highly recommended. Coffee and tea is excellent. Juice is standard carton stuff but pleasant enough. The owner Chloe and her team are lovely and welcoming and clearly very accommodating for small, large and single guests plus dogs. It’s also a very inclusive cafe which accommodates people with disabilities. Lovely find and highly recommended for all. A local gem.

This was a first-time visit for us to Kypseli, and it definitely won't be our last! We were a party of nine, celebrating my Mum & Dad's Emerald wedding anniversary. Everything about the experience from the moment I first contacted Kypseli to make the arrangements was perfect. The food was delicious & very authentic, and the atmosphere and attention to detail were second to none. The staff were super friendly and took care of us all wonderfully and made it very special for my Mum & Dad. Thank you for a fantastic evening. We can't wait to come back!

A little piece of Greece in Cranbrook! Great atmosphere, delicious food, impeccable service at great prices. I don’t like tzatziki and asked to not have it with my souvlaki, it was kindly replaced with a delicious hummus without even having to ask which was lovely. It clearly shows how much they care about customer satisfaction. We’ll certainly be back soon ❤️🇬🇷

What can I say, just lovely! Fantastic service, fabulous food. Started with dips which were lovely, continued with linguini prawns and pork stew. Puddings of a traditional cheesecake type dish with Shredded almonds ... kefka I think. Wonderful. Great atmosphere out the back with blankets and heaters! Definitely go again! Thank you?

My friend and I went for a meal at Kypseli on Friday evening and it was fantastic, as always. I often eat at Kypseli either in the restaurant or via takeaway and I am always blown away by the quality of the food and Friday evening was no exception. It is always a pleasure to eat with friends here as I know full well that we are going to have a fantastic experience, with great atmosphere, friendly staff and really lovely chilled family vibes. Another great job all! I look forward to eating here again soon 😃
