Cafe experience in Ilford

“Great services and tasty food, nice flavour of coffee. Recommended to try once.”

“Extremely disappointed with this place. I chose this place based on the good reviews, but everything arrived stone cold. The chips were stale and tasted as if they’d been fried in old oil. The shawarma wraps were also a huge let down, the sauces were so tangy and overpowering that they completely ruined the flavour. Honestly the worst shawarma I’ve ever had. I spent £41 and couldn’t enjoy any part of the meal. Definitely won’t be ordering again. Save your £ don't bother.”

“I highly recommend this place. Breakfast is excellent. Omelette is number 1. I recommend it. Everything is fresh and tasty. Everything is number 1 in London.”

“Great little cafe. Quality is good, friendly service, good hygiene and nothing is too much trouble. Excellent homemade dishes. Overall much much better since owners have changed. Happily recommend.”

“Great place for Indian breakfasts and Sweets. Got chance to try Idly, Dosa and Handmade soda. Sweets made of Desi Ghee made my day Must try and recommend for people carving for Indian/ Asian taste”

“I've been going here for my espresso fix and pastry, coffee is worth going for, it's strong, dark roast with a nice well rounded flavour, it's been a place I get my caffeine fix from”

“Bella coffee  always has the perfect atmosphere and ambience.Great place for cofee lovers ,sweet liquors,they serve also cakes and sandwiches .I love that they got outdoor tables for smokers and inside got sockets for phones and laptops, like to hang out everyday and the staff members are quite polite and serve at the table”

“Fabulous live music at the Gardener's cottage on Sunday 12pm - 4pm in summer. Why I'm I just hearing about this? Lovely music by Redbridge Music Lounge, great acts worth seeing”

“Our go to breakfast spot! Me and my partner love coming here. Food is absolutely delicious, people are so kind and always present our food with a smile. (Btw they're breakfast sausage are the best I've ever had, and bonus is everything is halal!!!) Looking forward to seeing you all again soon.”

“The food here was absolutely top notch everything was full of flavour. My favourite was the Lahmacun & Adana Kofte soft, juicy and meaty just the way it should be. The Lahmacun was thin and filled with toppings. Everything here was really enjoyable and it’s the perfect spot if you need a Turkish and wanna go with the family.”

“Been going to cafe for at least the last 10 years. It's best around. Great food. Staff are always friendly and welcoming. They always try and find you a seat even when they are crazy busy. It's not your average greasy spoon It's way better than that. And a 100% veggie and vegan friendly”

“Friendly, good service good food. Always visit when I'm in the area.”

The staff are highly attentive and unfailingly provide excellent service. It is quickly becoming my preferred spot for breakfast.”

“Very impressed with the food, price and service. If you are pressed for time as I was, and you can't take on their breakfast challenge I recommend the 'All in breakfast sandwich '.Bacon, egg, hash brown and sausage, bloody loveleh!”

“Great food and great service. The new decor is amazing and inviting. The mixed sheesh grill platter was cooked to perfection. And would also suggest the calamari. Will definitely recommend.”

“Lovely cafe on Green lane serving Halal breakfasts open really early nice and clean I had the medium breakfast come to a fiver with a cup of coffee fresh and hot if your in the area highly recommend”

“I wish that I knew about this place a lot sooner. It must be one of the best if not the best cafe that I have been to. The place is very clean and bright. The staff are friendly and the full breakfast meal tasted really nice. I will go there whenever I want a cooked breakfast”

“Stairs to the loo! Otherwise lovely place, small but cute beer garden out the back. Pizza was really nice!”

“Perfect place. Very cheap, very kindly people.”

“We had been meaning to try the food here for a while and so glad we did. Two bento boxes , one katsu chichen and the other balogi beef. The chicken was crispy and the sauce I thought was a bit thin but it was very good too. The balogi beef was very tender and tasty. Both boxes had vegetable rolls and goyza , some pickle and vegetables plus good sticky rice. Both boxes were a very good portion. We also had a salmon prawn katsu sushi special. Twelve pieces, nice and fresh with loads of pickled ginger , lettuce and endame beans. We were told a 40 minute wait but it was here in 20 minutes, beautifully packed in two bags , hot in one sushi in the other. Came with bamboo cutlery, soy sauce, wasabi and napkins and the related sauces. Loved everythong and will be ordering regularly no.”

“Coffee and sweets are delicious staffs Are very friendly”

“Lovely little cafe in the library, best latte so far, fast and friendly service. Also some food options are there.”

“I am really disappointed to see thar some reviews people have said this is a 2 star hotel. There are crazy ilford travelodge is the best hotel in east london for me its 5 star. The service we get every time is the best. We always come to this hotel and without a blink we get everything' we asks for . The location is the best 5 mins away from the station shops near by. Rooms are always clean. And the staff especially these guys are what hotels are made off. Starting with lira running the place with a special mention to sabrina,tammy, emannuela, amit, shadab, adriano, alina, ashif. Giffty. Thank You so much and more if i cant remember all the names but thank you all for you guys who make this travelling enjoyable. You all have made this the best hotel in east london. Nasir mirza”

“The stay was good from the time I entered as the checkin was fast plus the room I was given was flawless although the guest next door were noisy, nothing to do with hotel as the staff and facilities were fabulous.”
