I want to celebrate Hennessy's butcher. I go there weekly (if not twice weekly), they are nice, friendly and they love children plus their meat is fab (and well priced). So for the last 7yrs, they are my sole (dometimes coupled with waitrose) suppliers of meat. Thanks guys!

Yes I agree with you on Hennessy's. Lovely men. Not like that awful grumpy man in Doves. I once went in there to buy some braising steak for an Annabel Karmel recipe and he said the quantity was too small and it 'wasn't worth his while'. He actually refused to serve me! Luckily the guys in Hennessy's were much more helpful.

I wanted to put a good word in for a local electrician, Steve, who is based in Mallinson Rd.

I called him to ask about an electrical problem that needed fixing in my flat, and we made an appointment for him to come round. He turned up on time, was very friendly, and fixed the problem very quickly. And his rate was reasonable.

Hennessey's - yes! What great personal service! They even patiently listen to me describe my American cuts of meat and then cut it for me. Plus the quality is terrific. (I had a similar situation at Dove's. Will never go back)

The alterations guy on Lavender Hill across from the post office. Last winter when my coat wouldn't close over my belly, I went to him to buy some hooks. He wouldn't let me pay for him. When I thanked him he said they were for my baby not for me! I appreciated it anyway.

The owner at Yumeas is quite possibly the friendliest restaurant owner ever. He asks after our family, remembers little things about our order (no carrots) and will chat while you wait for your order. Normally I might find that annoying, but he's so nice I enjoy it.

And lastly, Abel and Cole. Their customer service is unmatched. Once they rang to tell me that the driver accidentally crushed my tomatoes so they were refunding me for the cost. Another time I had put in a big christmas order, but neglected to hit 'place order'. They called to make sure I meant to do that. I have several other examples, but I have always found them to be proactive and so helpful.

very good service from Gail's. (Staff at Paul are always clumsy and messy)-
Co-Op: very good too.
Ocado: the most courteous of all supermarket deliveries...Farah kids: always have good service there.
Another vote for Henessy. I like QT toys too, they always seem to know their (incredible) stock really well.

Here's one - Oliver Bonas the one at the Broomwood Road end of Northcote. The staff are always super helpful even when swamped at Christmas. Great source of cards and pressies.

Delicat - different menu and good service whenever I've been there.
