The 30 Best Quick lunch in Barking

“akshay he is very good customer adviser! top class service, highly recommended restaurant”

“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 :))”

“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.”

“A real taste of the Swahili Coast in East London. Perfectly grilled mishkaki (skewered meats). Prices are reasonable given the quality. Overall, this Halal food restaurant is a must visit for adventurous food lovers or anyone craving an authentic experience.”

“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!!!!”

“One of the BestTurkish kebabs I have eaten the guy named Osman is really helpful and really honest man if you live in East time don't go anywhere else come here”

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

“You know that moment when you walk into an Italian Bengali restaurant and your brain hesitates? Like… is this going to be another chaotic, Bangla-fusion-gone-wrong, 47-page menu, customer-service-optional situation? Or just maybe a proper Italian spot that makes you think, “Hey hey hey… we might have something here.” Well, I’m glad to report: this place is firmly in the hey hey hey category. The lasagne and the carbonara (halal, of course) absolutely slapped. One bite and I was instantly transported back to my backpacking days in Milan and Rome minus the hostel bunk beds and questionable Wi-Fi. The pizza? Banging. The pasta? Spot on. The lasagne? A hug from Nonna herself. Now yes… I do question their 1,000-item menu, including a full English breakfast, burgers and probably a weather forecast. But somehow, this Italian-Bengali joint is a hidden gem, and the guys in the kitchen genuinely do the Italian dishes the Italian way. Pay them a visit. Support a local business (in cash, IYYK). They do accept card as well but there are some cash deals for collection which are great. The atmosphere and tables are like an east end cafe but the food is banging. Your taste buds will thank you and me.”

“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.”

“Fresh food. Fairly priced. Friendly staff. Great variety of food. Just what I needed.”

“A short walk from Canning Town station, the staff were friendly, the food options were great, and the coffee was excellent. We had a mix-&-match salad, scrambled eggs, and eggs benedict. We also shared a dessert, and each got coffees. Well priced, nice decor, and good food”

“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!”

“£5 for three filling omelette with chips and beans is a good price. Swift nice service and overall good place for good meal, for not so London's price. Definitely recommended to visit and try.”

“I recently tried APR Chicken Pizza, and I was blown away by both the pizza and the chicken! The pizza was perfectly cooked — crispy crust, generous toppings, and just the right amount of cheese. Every bite was full of flavor. But what really surprised me was their chicken — so juicy, crispy, and full of seasoning. It’s hard to find a place that nails both pizza and chicken, but APR does it effortlessly. The staff was friendly and service was quick. You can tell they care about quality. Highly recommend for anyone craving amazing pizza and mouthwatering chicken. Will definitely be coming back!”

“This is the third time I have been to Brothers Cafe and it certainly won't be the last time. Everything about this place is great! The food is great, extremely tasty. The service is first class and the atmosphere of the cafe is superb. You are always welcomed with a smile and a genuine desire to provide great service. Every member of staff is always polite. I always enjoy coming here for my lunch. Great service as always. Keep up the great work.”

“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”

“We had a really nice meal here. The service was great and we were really looked after. The food was lovely and plentiful . We booked ahead but they were taking walk ins too. I fully recommend this Indian restaurant and well be returning. Also they do take away and delivery.”

“Very nice and tasty food 10 out of 10. Guy serving was really nice and friendly. Lady at the back was really nice and friendly. Cooked fresh and tasty food. Great service. Highly recommended to everyone, will definitely come and visit again 5 star service.”

“Loved the Luton branch. Glad they opened more”

“Great food! The salads are delicious! Generous portions of food at a very reasonable price! Staff are friendly and the service is good..”

“This is call Whitechapel Fried Chicken, former kf chicken, former Greggs Plaistow. Very good food and people. Their chilli sos is another level.”

“A brilliant little cafe in Dagenham down an industrial estate that serves some incredible food (CASH ONLY before I forget). I had the double cheeseburger and chips and it cost 6 quid..... yeah you read that right £6, it is absolutely on point too the chips aren't floppy, soggy, under done, crispy, burnt, they're the most perfect chips I have come across and the burger meat isn't hard or rough, nit even burnt round the edges, a nice juicy soft mouthwatering burger. The portion size well just look at it, for £6 it's the price of a McDonald's meal, I know which till I'd rarther put my money into. Staff are friendly, it was a relaxed laid back place when I went which was this morning at about 9am (Friday) if it doesn't say for future viewers of this review. My colleague had the breakfast too, set 5 if I remember correctly, I didn't get a photo but it was the size of the breakfast other reviewers have posted so that hasn't changed either”

“I have been going there for a few years now and people there are so nice and friendly and the food is delicious still order here till this day”

“I am thier regular customer. Food quality is above average. I like that the place is cheap and quality is still visible.”

“Ide like to share that a man called ronny served me today he was very polite couldn't do enough to help I will be visiting again very polite staff great atmosphere”

“i come to speedy noodle with my friends very frequently, and this is easily one of my favourite chinese restaurants. the portion sizes are massive for such a low price, the food has never disappointed and there is such a massive selection to choose from. yes, maybe it is empty sometimes but this isn’t a reflection of the food! the staff are always kind but not overbearing or interrupting, they have never been rude or dismissive toward me in over 5 years of coming here. one of my favourite spots that i will recommend to anyone who will listen!”

“Everything we tried on the menu was fabulous. One of the rare times you taste a dish that really makes you say "WOW!!!"”
