NON discretionary 10% service…

Please note a discretionary 10% service charge will be added to tables of 6 or more.

NOT TRUE! WE WERE 2 PERSONS, AND THEY PUT IT ON ANYWAY (I left 10% in cash as a tip, but don't like being treated as a ruddy MUG !!!

Great service and simple food

Warm recommendation from a danish family of six. We love Italian food, and this was the best meal we had in Torquay. Great service from a wonderful and jolly waitress from Serbia who made the experience even better. Very simple yet delicious food. If you find yourself in Torquay, make sure to book a table here for a lovely evening!

The Orange Tree Wanstead is brilliant

Rachel at The Orange Tree, Wanstead is brilliant. She came round to my home loaded with sample books and ideas and helped me in 3 of my rooms with roman blinds and curtains. Not only that but she offered advice about the overall scheme and I'm delighted with the results. I will be using her again!

Really appreciated the help Rachel and her team gave me in choosing the fabric, the colours, and the fitting for curtains for two massive picture windows. We'd had a few companies come and quote but none of the others were anywhere as helpful. Rachel's help even extended to helping me choose the right colour of bookshelves, so I'm really very happy with the service and love my curtains.

Great roman blinds!

The Orange Tree and Rachel were a great help to us. She visited us and provided excellent advice regarding the colours and fabrics for our roman blinds - now that they're installed they look excellent!

The whole process was very smooth and the quality of the blinds is brilliant. We will definitely be in contact with Rachel again if we need further help with our interior design.

I was rather tired of planning and organising interior fittings following a large house renovation project, and being pregnant whilst still in full time work. I'm very glad I went to The Orange Tree as Rachel completely understood my frazzled mind and limited time and helped me make the right fabric choice - despite my several changes of mind. She dropped the books and samples around a couple of times, made sure the measurements were perfect despite our sloping floor etc The quality of the finished product and finish is extremely high. Only wish I'd gone to her for the other blinds and curtains in the house which I had fitted some time back. Thoroughly recommended.

Great local service

Rachel is passionate about her work and very patient and helpful. It really helped that she brought the samples round to our house so we could see how things would work. We were really pleased with the blinds when they arrived; they were good quality and fitted perfectly. Would definitely recommend!

Absolutely Fabulous!

With an eye on current trends The Orange Tree delivers big time! Over the years I could never pass by their super shop without popping in for a chat and a peek at their gorgeous treats and nearly always came away with a little something! My home has many 'must-have' items which are admired by many and copied too! Most recently I purchased blinds for the whole house, the friendly team at The Orange Tree made the whole experience stress free, measured, delivered and fitted with ease! Thank you Mandy and Rachel and I look forward to making lots of trips to your new studio!

Highly recommended - would not consider going elsewhere

I have used the Orange Tree on several occasions now for paints, curtains and curtain rails. For someone like me with limited design ideas or experience, their advice is spot on. The service is friendly and professional, and they readily accommodate the requirements of busy working professionals who struggle to stay in for the huge time slots offered by the big national companies. I have also been highly impressed with the quality of their products and value for money. Highly recommended!

Superb

Amazing local shop with gorgeous products and friendly and knowledgable staff.

I always find beautiful things for our home in The Orange Tree and go there for inspiration and advice from the lovely staff. I recently had bedroom curtains made and fitted and I'm very happy. They look stunning and the service was excellent from choice of fabric to fitting.

First class

Will recommend The Orange Tree to anyone who needs curtains or advice with wallpaper etc.

They even refunded some wallpaper we over-ordered.

Lovely people too.

An excellent service.

The help I was given when I was choosing fabric for the curtains for my large bay window was excellent, especially when I was having difficulty deciding.
The new track and curtains are excellent, the fitter combing proficiency with friendliness.
I have tried several other companies for curtains and blinds, and wish I had found The Orange Tree sooner.

Excellent customer service, really good quality work

I used Orange Tree to get a curtain rail for a large bay window. They were excellent from start to finish - someone came to my house to measure up, I got the quote a couple of days later, the curtain rail was made promptly and then fitted at a time that suited me. Would certainly recommend.

Excellent bespoke service and interiors advice

We used The Orange Tree for curtains, blinds and sofas when we furnished our new home. I was so impressed with the bespoke service and advice we received and help with choosing fabrics and upholstery to match our colour scheme. Rachel has an excellent knowledge of interiors and a great instinct for what will work so I recommend The Orange Tree without hesitation.

Excellent quality and service

Tried John Lewis first, as The Orange Tree are local, popped in to see if they help with either blinds or curtains. Excellent service and advice from the selection process (on-site evaluation and measure), delivering of samples, and installation of our curtains.
