This is a real treat of a café. Zara and her partner are so friendly and welcoming. The coffee is great and the food is yum, real homemade treats. We have been going for years with my aunt, but hadn't been in ages, however Zara remembered me and as usual had a lovely warm welcome. It's one of my favourite places in Birchington.

To be honest, I read the reviews first before deciding to have my mid-morning breakfast during my one-night stay in Birchington. This little place is a gem! The lady who served me was ever so welcoming - I felt completely at ease! She seems to know all her customers by name and I was delighted to be part of such a warm atmosphere. My breakfast was perfect - I should have had second helpings! I highly recommend Zara's!

Proper English cafe, real tea proper food lovely service, feels like walking into a family home in the respect that everyone seems to be on first name terms! I had Breakfast No 2 with Scrambled Eggs and extra toast on the side! Went there with my best friend who knew everyone there! If you're looking for delicious food served in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere with ample on street parking, this is the place for you! Popular with locals, and visitors like me alike!

We had afternoon tea, there's a choice of fruit or plain scones, strawberry or blackcurrant jam, also a choice of cake. The food was very nice, and the service was very good.

Calm cafe atmosphere, festive for the holiday (Easter) great selection of cakes, friendly staff, free WiFi, decent coffee with a nice selection of syrups. I love this local cafe (I'm assuming it's a family run business), I'd definitely visit again. Only thing I can think of for constructive criticism, is that there was a few grains of ground coffee at the bottom of my latte, but that's me looking for things to improve on as I know it can happen. 10/10 visit 👏

I would definitely recommend a visit to Fields Cafe in Birchington. The food and especially the wonderful and really special cakes made by the owner of the Cafe,Jamie are a real treat. The service and atmosphere is just great and it’s very relaxing and enjoyable being there. Today i tried his banana and pineapple cake with pistachio nuts on top!! Absolutely delicious. Large slice too!!

Trevor is fantastic and has helped us ensure smooth running of our busy restaurant operation. We have had a few electrical situations where we have needed his advice and urgent call outs and he has been a pleasure to work with. Thank you Trevor! Matt Sworder www.cornerhouserestaurants.co.uk

One of the best tradesmen I've ever had work for me, reliable and well priced I usually find other tradesmen are usually difficult to get ahold of, or won't show up when they say, or charge ridiculous prices. I've never had this problem with Trevor We've used him for big and small jobs, and he's always great at what he does.

Great restaurant with friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. Food was delicious and served in a timely manner. The WW2 decor has a very interesting history and adds an extra charm that you don’t get at a lot of other cafés. 100% recommend if you’re in the area and fancy a tasty brunch!

A quirky characterful themed cafe with the tone set by the owner and staff. Well worth a visit. It is a small place so a bit crowded and food took a while but lots to look at while you wait and it was worth waiting for. Generous portions well cooked.

Amazing cafe, staff are absolutely wonderful and cheery! Elz the man that owns the cafe is a proper laugh!! The food is lovely, I’ve been in a few times now and the two waitresses are very kind, lovely and helpful. It’s a clean local cafe. Lisa the cook is very friendly and lovely. Atmosphere is amazing, everyone talks to eachother and there’s 80’s music! Service was astounding like usual. And it’s a dog friendly cafe so bring all your pups!! Would urge anyone to come here with family or friends!!

Used Wirex Electrical Ltd a few times. As soon as I enquire about electrical works to be done on my caravan, they are quick to respond, with a price and time. George is very helpful and keeps me posted at all times. I have had a kitchen extractor fitted, a electrical safely check done and a bathroom extractor removed and new one fitted. George is very trustworthy as I'm not around when this work is being carried out. For me that counts for everything.

Fantastic service. Contacted via the website and received a swift response. Appointment booked and carried out on the same day. George was friendly, professional, knowledgeable and quick to locate and fix our electrical fault. First class service and great to have the peace of mind to know we now have a company we trust and can call on when needed.

We have used Wirex on several occasions and cannot fault their service. Liam, Alfie and Matt are all very nice guys and nothing is too much trouble but more importantly they are very good at their job. Unless I am totally convinced I never recommend anyone. I would have no hesitation in passing their number to all friends and family in fact, that is how I got their number. They are not the cheapest but are in no way the most expensive but they are very good value for money....and no, I have not been paid to write this but I would be happy for any commission coming my way. Keep up the good work chaps and I look forward to seeing you on the next project. Best wishes Wayne.

After quoting up for a new fuse box and a couple of smaller jobs, Mark arrived on time and completed everything and a few tripping issues on the way. I was interested in what he was doing and he explained along the way. Mark was very professional, completed the work within the time frames set and tidied up after. Not only do we have a safe fuse box, but a working light and socket! Highly recommend, so much so he's going to be doing some work for my dad. Thank you

I cannot recommend Mark at White Spark highly enough, we were in the process of ripping out our kitchen & Mark hit the ground running, understanding the brief & what we wanted to achieve. Nothing was too much trouble & any extras we needed weren’t an issue. Due to a part of the kitchen being delivered late he had to make extra visits & again always arrived with a smile & got to work. If you are planning to use a reliable local electrician I would strongly advise you to get Mark to quote you, you won’t be disappointed.

We have had solar panels for over 12 years and Python batteries for 5 years, we have been pleased with their performances but in winter the panels suffered from shading by our neighbours chimney. We wanted to even out the years production and decided the best place to put extra panels would be in a dead area of the garden. This would mean we produced more in winter but needed to upgrade the batteries to store the extra. We discussed our ideas with Richard who ran through all the pros and cons of our plan. We settled on the ground mounted 4KW system in the picture. It sits out the way in the garden and we are very pleased with its aesthetic and performance. The fitting team of Dave and TJ were fantastic, great guys to have on site. Friendly, helpful and very neat and tidy. From the first visit by Richard to the fitting, the very prompt back office emails and certificates etc. by Hollie and Ellie we have been truly impressed. A very efficient company, can not praise them enough. As for production and storage, this winter will be a lot better than last! Much less purchased from the grid.

Fantastic company, really lovely guys who came and installed the panels. Super quick & efficient and they explained the app and how it works brilliantly. Always on hand for a phone call if you need anything too. 5 stars, would reccommend to anyone wanting to install solar panels.

A very reliable and professional company. They fitted solar panels on our unit in ramsgate, throughout the whole process they were informative on any questions we asked about battery storage and how the use the app that tells you what your solar panels are producing. We are a roofing company and have worked with this company on a couple of jobs, their employees are a great team to work with. Would definitely recommend

Total Electrical Solutions were well recommended to us by work colleagues that had had solar panels installed already. We love ours now that they are all fitted, our system has an app where we can monitor our solar energy production and where it goes. The whole team were great. Very knowledgeable and approachable and more than happy to chat through what's best for us, our house and our needs with any questions answered quickly. From planning to install we were well looked after. If you are thinking about having solar panels installed we would highly recommend using this company!
