WOW. What a great bank and great service. I defiently recommend coming here. Very helpful and will go out of their way to help you. 1 to 1 service is fantastic and felt very welcomed. Having bad experiences with my previous bank, they understood my situation and actually had all the time in the world for me. If you ever need a new bank or a change, come here. You won't be disappointed.

Never had anything but great service.

The staff are very helpful. They know all of their regular customers. It has recently been totally transformed and queuing for a long time is a thing of the past. Its very easy to get information.

The bank closes at 3.30pm not 4pm as stated the on website on Saturdays!

Friendly, helpful staff. Always.

Amazing experience every time

I was waiting outside for them to open with chronic toothache on a Monday morning with no appointment in agony. They ushered me in upon opening and said I was welcome to wait and they would see me as soon as a slot was available. Before my behind had barely touched the seat I was whisked away and not even ten minutes later was pain free and minus an infected molar. Speedy and professional service and I am eternally grateful that I was accommodated so quickly and kindly.

Excellent Dentist..been with "The Tooth Place" for many years and watched it decline, but now there is new life and enthusiasm in the place with caring staff who are eager to accomadate the patients needs

Fantastic dental surgery. Staff are professional, courteous and do their utmost to make your visit a positive experience. A. Marshall in particular is wonderful. She was thorough, professional and friendly. Highly recommend.

Great dentists and a great service. Highly recommend for a first class service.

I am so pleased I found this dental surgery. Everyone from the receptionists to the dental surgeons are so friendly and professional and for the first time in a while I am happy to return to the same practice knowing they will do the very best for me. I would definitely recommend North Hill dental practice (& have recently done so).

This is best by far the best Dental Surgery in all of ESSEX. The Staff are friendly & actually have a great sense of humour, they are not "Stuffy or Devoid" of their Clients feelings & their Bedside Manner is perfect if, like me, you are terrified of the Dentist. You will deffinately want to go back for more surgery without the fear. Lay back, relax & they do the rest. It's better than having a "Spa Day". Thank you guys for giving me my Courage back, see you soon.

While some of my friends and family find it difficult to find a doctor willing to listen to them and to suggest more than taking paracetamol, I found here one of the best GPs I have ever talked to. Dr. Claire Cooper always pays attention, takes one's worries seriously, listens carefully and sent me for future medical investigations every time it was the case. I think she does a brilliant job and I am happy that there are still people like her in the NHS.

I've always had a good experience with the surgery, with making appointments and also repeat prescriptions. I've made a few mistakes like forgetting to order things and sometimes needing to be seen at a particular time or at short notice and I've found that the staff have really tried to help. I'd also say that my GP Dr Rassell has been great, she's always listened to my concerns, has been kind and helpful and has always made follow up referrals for me.

I've had excellent and thorough care from the GPs I've seen at Wimpole Road Surgery.

Found this surgery to be very good! The Receptionists are very friendly and welcoming and take time with patients. The doctors and nursing staff listen to the ailments which are troubling you and recommend different options. Have had many health problems and these have been treated well and involved specialist treatments. The one doctor I found condescending and rude was a female elder doctor who has thankfully now left. Wonderful place and the fact you can book appointments and prescriptions online makes life easier.

Staff is very helpful, kind and professional. It was very easy to find my way and to get the instructions needed. The building is very old and historical which automatically means some renovation may be needed, but nevertheless good service.

I would like to say thank you so much for the care I have had...second to none. Yes the car park isn't the best but they are always helpful and try to find you a space, but it's the medical care that is important to me and it's been wonderful in the eye clinic...thank you Dr Bansal...he told me what was happening the whole way through the procedure...the nurses were patient, kind, attentive...I can't say enough about everyone involved...during the procedure I had someone hold my hand the whole way through...I can't tell you how reassuring this was...it helped me to relax....I can see again, drive again....I have my life back thanks you everyone...Elizabeth Norton

Absolutely brilliant! Cafe open every day, above Aldi. Good food, great company!

It's an amazing place to go, the cafe sells amazing food trust me I done 2 week work experience and the staff are amazing they make you feel really welcoming. Even if you have loads of homework or work things to do the cafe is an amazing place to sit and do it, it's calm and friendly.

Friendly, welcoming people in this church :-)

It has very nice stained glass windows. However, can get cold in the winter and the pews are not very comfortable.

I have been to Mass here many times

Helpful staff. Always seems to be busy with lots of cars but usually I can find a spot to pull into. With staff assistance the job is done in no time and I'm ready to move on.

If you are lucky and time it just right you can have a quick visit.. otherwise be prepared to queue for ages. Why not change the parking layout so people have to reverse in at an angle to the skips, it would mean so many more cars could fit in. Often spaces at the top end of the facility but people tend to wait for spaces as they enter so queues tend to be longer than necessary. Why not have someone directing traffic?

Great staff!

Really good service. Best paid price about would use again.

Best quote I received and process so simple - car collected as agreed with minimum of fuss and hassle. Recommended

just ordered several dishes adapted for vegans. It was delicious and fresh tasting. Staff were very friendly too. Thank you

Really helpful and friendly staff, good value tasty food, and they even cater for gluten free (with lots of choice) - what's not to love?!

Don't be fooled by an uninspiring exterior, once in (provided you've booked at peak times), you will not be disappointed. The quirky layout over 3 floors varying hugely in ambience all add to the charm of this Italian restaurant. Food served was piping hot, well presented and delicious. Service was quick and staff were attentive. Although Italian this is not a pizzeria, so go elsewhere for that!

Yes, another true and authentic Italian restaurant in Colchester - love it. Food is real, authentic Italian with real Italian ingredients and way of cooking. Atmosphere is lovely and staff is even better. Cook is delightful and kind. Will absolutely come back. Highly recommend to those who wish to experience authentic and real Italian food.

Food was fresh & well presented. Service was excellent; very attentive. As newbies to sushi we asked for recommendations, very happy with the advice we received. Loved the fact we weren't 'rushed' out of the restaurant despite it being past closing .

Not generally a fan of sushi but quite enjoyed this Japanese cuisine. Great to see a different type of food come to the town. I hope it remains popular so it doesn't come and go.

The preschool is very welcoming and the team is friendly and hospitable. The kids have fun and have many hands on activities. I love to receive mail/photos/videos about his weekly tasks. Many thanks for your support and patience.

Is a good school for your young child to go to

I am in Year 6 at this school now (2017) and I'm about to do my SATs. The staff are so kind and caring, alot better than hamilton or any primary school in Colchester to be honest. A great primary school!

Both our children attend SJG and my son will leave the school this year having spent all of his primary education at it. The Headteacher and his Team have never been anything but professional and approachable throughout our children’s education. There is a clear respect that runs from throughout. Parents are kept updated at all times, office staff are always happy to help and the ethos of the school shines through. Our one experience of bullying was swiftly dealt with and never reoccurred. The pre and after school clubs are very useful for working parents and run very well. I am very confident that as time goes on and the school continues to grow there are only good things to come. If this isn’t yet the best Primary School in Colchester it’s certainly one of them.

I go to this school I'm in year 2

I like the school the teachers are very nice

The best school in all Essex !!!

An amazing school. I love it loads

Brilliant school exceptionally well run with dedicated teachers. Maintaining high standards of learning and fully appropriate behaviour in a modern world. My daughter had and now my grand daughters also will benefit from this experience. Thank you, St Mary's.

My daughter recently started at the High School in Reception and I can already see a difference in her- she’s so much more confident in herself and her academic progress has been remarkable. The staff have been very welcoming and the communication with parents is first class. The children are being given a really well rounded education and my daughter always comes home with lots of positive stories about her friends and the things she has learnt. I highly recommend this school!

At the time of writing my son is in the reception class at Colchester High School and my daughter is in the nursery. I cannot fault this school and am genuinely grateful for all it has done so far to help my kids, particularly my son settle into their education. Children are seen as individuals here and the teaching is excellent with full differentiation to ensure each child reaches their potential academically. There is also a strong emphasis on sport starting from nursery age which my two absolutely thrive on. With its quirky array of somewhat charming Victorian buildings that lay home to so many wonderful staff and students, the school is a very welcoming place. I feel as though my family are part of a warm and friendly community that will always do its best to guide our kids through the most impressionable years of their life. A positive buzz runs though the school at all times and from what I can see, this stems from the school’s ability to create happy confident kids with good values. The interaction between different year groups is a lovely thing to see. At the school disco, my four year old son was chatting to a group of eight year olds. They all know each other and are all friends! A great place :)

Loved it
