The 30 Best Cozy atmosphere in Barking

“amazing food, great service, great value for money”

“Took my daughter for dry cut, was attended to by Neelam. The service provided was excellent, she explained the difference in the cuts I was considering and even taught me how to style my daughter’s hair myself. Neelam was friendly and polite and easy to talk to. Will definitely be going back in the future!”

“Bought their cheapest set breakfast for £6.50. It came with fried bread but I was asked if I wanted to swap it for toast so I thought that was good customer service but I declined. Nice big, tasty coffee. Sausage could have been a bit more 'meaty'. Cooked to order. New photo added in July 2024.”

“A full English in East London for a tenner in 2024?! Someone pinch me! What a delicious hidden gem in East Ham! Why it was empty at 9:30am is beyond belief, but hey, no complaints from me. Coffee (delicious, I must say) and toast included as well. There's gotta be a catch somewhere, right? I've been back a few times since discovering this place, and the owners have been incredibly polite, with the food spot-on every time. Thank you, Pop-In Cafe!”

“So good, i took the brunch set for £9.50 (there are even cheaper options) and i was full, the food was tasty i recommend you this place and the lady was really nice :))”

““Fantastic lunch spot! The food portions were generous, flavours spot-on, and the shisha was smooth and well-prepared. Staff were friendly and attentive. Definitely coming back.” I really love it”

“I ordered through Uber, the food was immaculate! We ordered the buy one get one free ‘hot one burger’ with American fries and cheesy jalapeño, came to around £22. I love spicy food and the burger was just perfect! My burger looked like the picture they have on the menu. Fully satisfied with the flavours, worth every single penny. If I could eat burgers all day this would be the place I would order from.”

“Great neighbourhood cafe. Cozy and friendly hence difficult to tear yourself away! Cornerstone Community Coffee shop is a friendly space where people can just find someone to talk to and get excellent coffee and light meals at affordable prices, or free in some circumstances. It's run by volunteers from charity - East 13 Christian Trust.”

“Christina is a lovely lady she has done my hair before and she gives very good advice also the service is 10/10. She has the magic touch. Out of the other hair salons I've been to, she has outbeaten them all. Will be coming to this salon for now onwards. Thank you so much ♡”

“It was a delight to eat at Alex's Place. We loved every bit of it and the staff were so warm and welcoming. The food was GREAT and so much that my spouse and I could not finish it so we took it home. We ordered a platter and we tried a couple of other dishes on the menu. LOVED LOVED LOVED IT!!!!”

“I recently visited and was absolutely blown away! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with beautiful decor and a cozy vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The food? Simply divine! Every dish was cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Amazing traditional Pakistani food. The service is excellent, the owner (We know him as uncle) has the best hospitality and manners. When uncles not there, his boys, Muazzam, Mukarram and Azam make sure the guests are looked after. 10 out of 10 for me!!”

“Honestly the best cafe in London! Star quality food, the chef is simply amazing! The staff here are truly the best, every time I come here with my family they always make me feel so welcome I can’t recommend enough.”

“The food is amazing, such a friendly and welcoming stuff I 100% recommend this place.”

“Great restaurant serving South-East Asian cuisine - predominantly Vietnamese, but also some Thai options, Singaporean, and others. Really satisfying, homely meals. Good service and extensive menu. I would love to visit again. This restaurant earns an extra star from me as the portion-sizes are quite substantial.”

“I ordered a Dourada that almost made me cry. I can not wait to go back again. UPDATE. Lamb smells to urine, and portions don't look so big as before, when I ordered meat.”

“The food is so good that it reminded me of my homeland. I ordered creamy chicken and it was something else, and it comes with bread and butter. The butter is another story, it was the one that reminded me of my homeland. The final one, the desert that we ordered, Trilige, was soft and juicy, incredible!”

“Wow wow wow .. went into this place for a bacon roll and noticed some chicken on the griddle that looked amazing and straight away changed my mind and went for daily special . It was amazing and the size of the meal was crazy large . The chicken was perfectly seasoned the rice was cooked to perfection and the salad had a great dressing .. all I can say was this meal was delicious and perfect. Definitely see you again and thank you”

“The take-out food I ordered was absolutely delicious and exceptional. Each dish was bursting with flavour, from the perfectly seasoned stir-fried vegetables to the tender and juicy chicken, which was cooked to perfection. The presentation was also impressive, with vibrant colours that made the meal visually appealing. I truly appreciated the care and attention to detail that went into preparing my food. Thank you for providing such a wonderful dining experience!”

“Turns out, the small chinese takeaway with the single chinese auntie at the counter that wants cash payment will be a good experience. Excellent food for a takeout place, and the fact that its so near to me makes it even better. Will be becoming a regular there.”

“Great friendly service from staff food is lovely. Very clean including the toilets I have never seen toilets so clean in a cafe . Thank you guys x”

“1. Nice peaceful place to be if you want to spend quality time, but money was taken twice in my account trying to call to understand why never anyone answered no good service. I could have given 5 stars but they missed the chance 2. My second feedback I change my feed back from 3 to 5 stars as I mentioned above I liked the place, I went back again to find out why my money was taken twice. This nice and beautiful waitress came up to me saying I left behind my cards and driving licence, she run after me but not see me anywhere, the only way to attract my attention was to tap a £5 pounds bill. Long story short, they gave me my £5 back and my cards, we spend a very time talking with my family there and my little one loved the cake. Thank you Bruce for your kind gesture and service and apologise for misunderstanding you. As I said to your Boss change the contact number and make someone available to answer. See you again next time”

“Another great meal at the Galleon Cafe. It’s was so much food I had to climb over it. Delicious”
