Service & Atmosphere

Pros:

• "Staff were friendly, and the price wasn't too bad considering how full we were when we left."
• "Been lucky enough to not have to wait in the usual long queue outside the few times I’ve visited."
• "Service was really friendly and the chef sent us a free fruit platter to try which was so nice!"
• "Staff were exceptional, although the restaurant itself is quite small and gets jam packed easily."
• "The ambiance is lively, lots of happy faces (obviously cos they were enjoying their meals), and super friendly service from the staff."
• "Nice atmosphere, friendly service and AMAZING food and coffee. If I lived in London I’d eat here all the time."
• "This halal cafe truly stands out with its exceptionally delicious food that leaves a lasting impression."
• "Loved this place. The food was great and had a lot of flavour, it wasn't just a normal fry up and it has the best presentation."

Cons:

• "The cafe has a small and limited space so you are most likely to wait on a queue outside pending a free space."
• "Cash only* Food here was so nice. There is normally a bit of a queue to get in but if you get there before 11 then it's not that long."
• "The atmosphere was pretty good, although the seating is a bit tight and cramped."
• "The cafe is cash only so be sure to have cash on you. There is a very run down free cash point across the road."
• "Had to wait over half an hour to be seated. Mediterranean breakfast was tasty bit pricey for the portion size."
• "It’s a bit more expensive than your average café but this was reflected in the quality."
• "Sometimes hard to hear yourself amongst everyone else’s conversations. Wish they took card payments too, but they only take cash."
• "Unable to sit without needing to move around to allow others to come in or go to the washroom."
