Kukkii K. • April 1, 2018It's hard to choose a favourite dish when everything is so good. But if I must the the Jerusalem bagel with chilli dips and the chicken abu kalmash cannot be missed!

Mély P. • March 23, 2017Nordic pear (spice, seed, crumble cacao, coco yogurt, pear, maple). Really good : like a sweet hug for winter. Crunchy (crumble), tender (porridge), warming (spices) & fresh (yogurt) at the same time

Jonathan P. • July 14, 2023This is an old warehouse converted to a fantastic, open gathering area. With close to 20 different take-away restaurants, you’ll surely find something you enjoy. Plenty of seating and socializing here

Dens • March 1, 2016Worth going out if your way to track this place down. Go early because it gets packed, and scope out the upstairs for hidden seats. Best alleyway drinking we found on our trip.

Jill M. • July 6, 2018Great beer selection ... also takeaway & growler fills. Great burgers & snacks. Try the Gin & tonic in cans too .. fridge to right of bar for take out.

Clara E. • October 22, 2023Really loved the wicked, the philly had peppers for some reason (ew) and the po boy was good but not like the original. Overall great spot and food

Diego C. • May 27, 2016Seriously amazing, number 1 ramen in London by far. Choose your noodle firmness and enjoy real broth. Add the extra egg to be just perfect.

Nikita K. • September 1, 2016If you're feeling super hungry, get the meze platter - it's both beautifully presented and delicious.

Gaelle N. • September 6, 2013My perfect meal here would have to be summer rolls, chicken&beef pho, and a vietnamese iced coffee to wash it all down and end on a sweet note (from the condensed milk). Very busy @ lunchtime weekdays
