"I honestly expected amazing things when I ordered a custom cake for my boyfriend for his 23rd birthday. After seeing the amazing cakes they produce I put in an order, sending reference photos and description of how I wanted the cake but collected it today feeling like my cake was missing that amazing appearance I've seen from their others. I requested a cake covered in brick wall, only 1/3 of the cake has that on and the rest is just plain white buttercream, I also requested an amazing and colourful graffiti piece (shown in reference photo sent to them) to go on the cake! This was not portrayed at all... the graffiti is a small paper looking design, different colours than in the reference and completely different style/font, unfortunately nothing similar to the photo shown from me and this was honestly so disappointing. I paid £45 for a cake I was so excited to collect and gift to my boyfriend, only to leave feeling slightly ripped off and sad. I would've appreciated it more for them to tell me if they couldn't do the design I wanted and then I would've not ordered."

"My wife and I were visiting her Mom in Gravesend from the U.S., which we do at least once a year. We 've had many meals at many restaurants in the area. This was my favorite. I wasn 't overly excited by the word seafood in the name, but five of us each had something different and each of us raved about our choice. We had swordfish, sea bass, ravioli in salmon cream sauce, homemade pasta with veggies and traditional beef Bolognese. The chef and his wife, Josephine, own the restaurant. He does the cooking and she is the waitress. They could not have been nicer not more welcoming. My in-laws plan to go back this week. My wife and I will look forward to returning to The Boys on our next visit."

"On the day that government extended the tier 4 areas across the country, I collected dinner from Desi only to find that all the 3 employees inside Desi had no protection whatsoever. Not even bad placed mask on the chin as many people use, not a single mask at sight. Every other take away that I have used in the last week had employees with masks as mandatory for every open business. Being a restaurant with a open door on a tier 4 area I expected much more from Desi."

"This was my second visit to this restaurant. Unfortunately, the first visit was better than the second. The wrong burger was brought out initially, but a replacement was given along with extra fries. We were overcharged when we were leaving, but the mistake was rectified and a refund was given on my card. We had to pay a £5 deposit per person to book their bottomless breakfast/brunch, but this was refunded in cash when we paid. The drinks listed are only bottomless. The French toast breakfast was much larger than expected, and my friend struggled to finish it. Overall, my previous visit during the summer had gone smoothly. Parking was limited, but we didn't have an issue finding a spot as it was quiet when we visited."

"The staff were very attentive and service was very prompt. I had the fish and chips which were the best that I have had at Sudbury House. My friend had the steak, which although was cooked a little more than the requested rare, was excellent and the pink peppercorn sauce was very delicious. Sadly we were too full to have a dessert. which was a shame because the choice was very tempting, next time hopefully! I live very locally and value having such a lovely place to eat out within walking distance of home."
