Ilford cafe in Ilford

“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.”

“Very good service from Sadia. She is very hardworking and helpful., despite the shop being very busy, she has been very calm and very professional. Keep up the good work. Relaxing atmosphere to eat and drink. I am not too happy that she is working on her own and the shop has been very busy, hence waited a bit to be served and get my food. Extra support is needed in the shop for health & safety reasons etc”

“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”

“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”

“I'm from Brazil and I met this place today, a cosy and warm CAFE , excellent service, polite, kind and attentive employees, breakfast has incredible varieties and flavours, thank you guys , I will be back !”

“Hands down one of the best breakfasts I’ve had in a long time. Every single individual item was cooked to perfection. I had the moral mega which consisted of like 8 different types of items and then added nuggets on top - every single item left you wanting more. My wife got the smoked salmon eggs Benedict and I tried it - it was damn good! The atmosphere was very nice, they had a high chair for my infant child, servers were all very polite & well mannered and their toilets were also nice & clean. Already looking to go back!”

“This charming cafe, nestled within the park, offers a delightful halal breakfast. I have had the pleasure of visiting on several occasions and have consistently been impressed. 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!”

“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.”

“Just had a cup of tea, very authentic Turkish tea. They made it fresh, which was nice; we had time to wait 20-30mins for it to brew. It came in a tall glass so was a nice big cup of tea.”

“Murad was amazing!!! He worked the whole floor by himself and still made us feel comfortable and looked after. He was took our order with a smile and explained any questions we had about the menu. All in all fantastic experience and food made extra special by Murad. Thank u Murad xx”

“The best coffee ☕ around this area”

“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”
