"Cafe Quench is my go-to spot to work, study, socialize, etc. Amazing food and a great vibe, it's nice and quiet, with just the right amount of liveliness that gives it the sort of vibe you'd see from cafes/pubs in TV shows like Friends or How I met your Mother. I often spend hours here getting my work done, meeting friends, etc.The owner Soltires is nice Greek guy, very friendly, and makes a real effort to get to know his customers. The personalization has kept me coming back. The man has memorized all of my favorites and often knows what I'm looking for before I even open the menu. He even goes out of his way to have a chat with me about how everything's going personally.Very accomodating for all diets. For all my veggies out there I recommend the Chili non carne. It's perfectly seasoned and feels closer to a home made dish than a cafe dish. I also recommend the iced mocha which, in actuality, is an ice blended frappachino."

The Flint House

Carte • Wine • British • Healthy • European

"We went to Flint House for a work dinner and were impressed by the lovely setting, with cozy lighting and music. We opted for the Chef's Menu, a 5-course meal, and some of us also chose the wine pairing. Every dish was delicious, and we highly recommend this menu, especially with the wine pairing. It was a memorable experience. The only issue was that our booking was for a 2.5-hour slot, which felt a bit tight with the 5-course menu. We had to be moved to another table 10 minutes before our time was up to make room for another reservation, but we were able to stay at an empty table downstairs as long as we wanted. A 3-hour slot may have been more appropriate for a 5-course meal. Despite this minor inconvenience, we had a great time and plan to come back in the future. The service, food, and atmosphere were all top-notch. Recommended dishes: With Wine Pairing. Price range: £60-70 per person. Meal type: Dinner."

"My husband and I decided to have a spontaneous dinner at Banqueano on a Saturday night. Truth be told, we only chose this restaurant because the more popular ones in the area were fully booked. It seemed intriguing as we had never been to an Argentinian steakhouse before. After reading numerous positive reviews, we were excited to see if the hype was justified. And let me tell you, it definitely was! The food was outstanding, not a single complaint from us. The service was top-notch, a solid 10/10. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The wine selection was excellent, complementing our meal perfectly. The whole dining experience was well worth the money. This charming family-owned restaurant left a lasting impression on us, and we will definitely be returning. If you're contemplating making a reservation, don't hesitate! You won't regret it. This place deserves a 5-star rating. Kudos to Banqueano for a job well done."

Suriya's Thai Kitchen

Carte • Thai • Curry • Asiatic • Noodles

"I had Thai Dumplings as my starter. It was super good! I could sense the homemade element from the dumpling. The minced water chestnuts inside the dumplings really is a wow factor. My main was stirred fried aubergine. It’s also amazing! I asked the chef to add more pork in it. And, he is super kind for my special request. As a Thai, this is the best Thai restaurant outside Thailand. -or even better than Thailand- Definitely worth a visit or two if you travel around here."
