Agree with OP I was ready to dislike it as I thought it was a big chain but...I've now been half a dozen times and really enjoyed it. Everything is made fresh to order, the staff are nice, the room not too busy and the food was tasty. Really like the lunch salads!

Hi, Some guy on a bicycle stole two parcels which Amazon has annoyingly dropped at my front door while I was out. Did it in the full daylight, at about 2pm yesterday. We live in the Bellenden road area. I watched the security camera recording and could see him lingering up and down the street, watching people's front yards to see if there were any left parcels. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

Hi, I'd like to recommend Shandra Poleon. who's been cleaning our house near Bellenden Road for the past 6 months. She's fantastic, super thorough, punctual, proactive, and very organized. Best cleaner we've ever had! We couldn't be happier. I know she has availability on a couple of days a week still. Her number is 07948 281752

He/She is indeed very bold! Often out and about in broad daylight

Dan & team came to install an aerial and two security cameras in my house. They were polite, punctual, clean and precise. Very responsive communications and fair price. Very professional.

True, but the reaction would be no different: most neighbours would complain about it under various pretences. See for example the special needs school being built by the council next to my house (Bellenden), on the site of a recently-closed primary school. At least a dozen people found pretexts to oppose the development. Of course they claim to be in favour of better facilities for special needs kids - just not in their backyards! My experience is the people who complain about "more car traffic" seem to be car owners who don't want more traffic/trouble parking for themselves. Like 2nd generation immigrants who are somehow super anti-immigration (Priti Patel)
