Classical atmosphere in Ilford

“Our Pakistani friend took us to Haweli restaurant in Ilford for dinner. We had lamb and chicken curry, lamb biryani, various kebabs, it was delicious, and our first time having Pakistani food, we all loved it. Sumbul provided excellent service. She was very polite and hospitable.”

“Great cafe been in barkingside high street for decades. Same family same lovely welcome. Loads of locals us it. Food very good and reasonable price. WELL WORTH A VISIT SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL CAFE!!”

“Local coffe hosue. Nice coffe, nice cakes. Clean place. Nice to have a quick coffee and relax . Friendly staff.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had a great experience at Sahara Grill and wanted to give special mention to Abdur Rahman, who served us. He was very professional and, for a trainee, did an excellent job. He was attentive in a calm, subtle way, checking in on us during the meal and making sure we were comfortable without interrupting the experience. Little thoughtful touches showed his awareness and good service, which really helped us feel relaxed. Food-wise, everything was enjoyable, but the Angus short rib was a standout – absolutely a hit and easily the highlight of the meal. Overall, a very positive experience. Credit to Abdur Rahman and the team.”

“Good Atmosphere. Nice people. The hair stylist was quite understanding. He suggested some nice lines as I have a receding hairline. The final look was something that I was not expecting. But, it looked nice. Would suggest going there. And I would certainly go there again.”

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

“my thanks to MINH who did a stellar job doing my gel mani and picking the perfect colour too!! Very lovely guy and quality service. Thank you!”

“I was looking for a maroon colour party dress for my cousin’s wedding party, didn’t find anything of my choice in any other shops. I literally went to each and every shop in Ilford lane and Green street. Luckily found a really nice one in Beejees Fashion thanks to the sisters that work there. They were nice, helpful and gave me very good customer service. I would recommend this shop”

“My first time here today and honestly I couldn't recommend Karen enough. She made me feel very welcome, was chatty and done the best cut on my undercut. (Which was awkward due to a previous barber messing up my line). She's made it look great. Will 100% be returning, and I highly recommend.”

“Best barber I've had, great service and great cut every time. Highly recommend!”

“The experience was very good and the waiters are so friendly. I come here with my college mates or family and we always get good service. Food is lovely and tasty. Good price as well”

“So happy to see a bit of normally!! Great experience once again! I really missed this cosy place and the lovely, friendly and very professional staff! Love my new hair style!Thank you so much Zebe and Ismail!”

“I just went there for a haircut. The person who did it was very welcoming and the haircut was quick, nice, and well-done. Would definitely recommend it”

“I recently had the pleasure of experiencing Theo's Technicut Barbers Shop, and I can confidently say it's one of the best barber shops in town! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The decor is stylish and modern, creating a comfortable environment for clients.I was particularly impressed with the level of professionalism and expertise displayed by him.”

“Andrew did a great job and really good chat too.”

“Mo is a very good man every time he cut my hair and he cut perfectly so I prefer every to visit there barber”

“Great beard shape up and skin fade, he took his time and care and done a great job. Will definitely return”

“Heard good things and it didn't disappoint. Pizza made fresh in front of us and tasted lovely! Would definitely recommend if you're in the area”

“Rohit and Funi were very attentive and hospitable. They took excellent care of me and my friends, even had a good chat and some laughs with them too. Food was absolutely amazing! Tried Gobi Manchurian, samosa tikki chaat, yellow daal and paneer butter masala, all of which tasted lovely! Pani puri needed more sweet and sour in the pani however as a Punjabi Street Food cook myself, based on what I ate, I would highly recommend Indian Aroma which also offers a nice family setting. Rohit brought us a complimentary papad with peanuts and other toppings which was nice but slightly on the dry side. The lime soda needed more black salt but overall, I was pleasantly happy and will be going back to try their Dosa and other vege starters.”

“This is a great new spot in Ilford. I had noodles there today. Presentation was beautiful, food tasted amazing! Gentleman served me was very polite and attentive. I highly recommend this place and will be back there myself to try more dishes!”

“I bought this one , and it's so good. Must visit. Nice service.”

“I have been using beauty spot for years now as not only is it local but Hemma and her team are lovely ladies, they always look after me and recently I tried the laser hair removal on my legs and under arms and it’s amazing results. I was so impressed by the laser treatment I had several years ago on my upper lip that I wanted to try this and it’s such a good price compared to other salons but at Beauty spot you feel valued. I decided to treat myself to an early Mother’s Day present and had a hydro facial session and all I can say is it was worth every penny and it felt amazing. It’s so important to look after our skin so I would highly recommend this to all ladies. I cannot wait till the next time. The session was so relaxing and they talk you through the whole process, even the day after my skin feels super soft and fresh”

“I recommend anyone to check out this barbershop, even if you don’t live in Redbridge! They are experts at what they do, and most importantly, their hygiene is excellent! I’m always happy with my shave and haircut! To top it off, they understand how to leave you in silence if you don’t want to chat, or how to stimulate a good conversation, and that is a skill in an of itself. As always, I look forward to my next experience. Aarron Burgin”

“This is a great place to get your hair cut. They also offer other services like face masks and threading. I took my kids for a hair cut and made my boys feel extremely comfortable and gave them a very pleasant experience”

““Amazing wood-fired pizzas! Super cheesy with all kinds of toppings and great taste.”

“Best burger in area.fast serves I enjoy my breakfast”

“Where do I start? Thank you so much Chloe, your professionalism and attention to detail are unmatched. The aftercare - superb! I went to see Chloe for Russian lip filler for the first time ever and there is no way I will ever see anyone else for aesthetics. Such a natural look Chloe was able to achieve seamlessly over 2 appointments. There is a reason why Chloe teaches other injectors and has her own training academy. She knows what she’s doing. A real professional with a wealth of experience. Thank you Chloe. I will see you again for a top up very soon! Xx”

“I recently had the pleasure of viewing a flat with Naz as our host, and I must say, the experience exceeded all expectations. From the moment we met, Naz was incredibly polite, professional, and welcoming. He made us feel comfortable throughout the visit and was more than happy to answer all our questions. His demeanor was calm, and his attention to detail truly stood out. The flat itself was absolutely immaculate—clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. It’s clear that great care and effort have been put into ensuring a high standard for potential tenants. A big thank you as well to his manager, Maddy, who has clearly fostered a great environment for the team. It’s rare to come across such a professional and personable approach, and this duo really delivered. Overall, the experience was seamless, and I left with a very positive impression. Thank you, Naz and Maddy, for your efforts and for making this process such a pleasant one!”

“Delicious food, friendly staff, fun ambiance and overall a great experience. Loved the pizzas.”
