It’s award season in Merton! And I was thrilled that Willow Bough, my beautiful little tea shop in Wimbledon, is a finalist in the Best Customer Service category of the Merton Best Business Awards run by Merton Chamber of Commerce. We’ve only been open for two years and are still becoming known in the borough, but it seems that so far our customers like what we’re doing!

We work really hard at Willow Bough to provide a high level of customer service, along with excellent food. We know it’s not just what’s on your plate that counts when eating out and you really do get the whole experience at Willow Bough.

So in September I’ll be dusting off my posh frock and glamming up for the awards ceremony. Whatever the results, I’m sure we’ll have a wonderful time and will feel proud just to have reached the final

We’ve also been nominated in two categories – Best Coffee/Tea House and Best Service – in the Time and Leisure Best Business Awards. Voting is still open so please do take a few minutes to make my day and vote for Willow Bough and hopefully there’ll be another award ceremony to get dressed up for!
