Camden

Trap Kitchen

This place is a vibe. The decor, the music, the friendly faces, I felt at home even though I was a few thousand miles away. I loved the seafood. I had the fried lobster, crab legs, bang bang shrimp, tasted the catfish and chicken - all were delicious. My only critique,  their sauces didn’t give me the heat and texture that I craved, and I felt
Like the mac and cheese had a bit of that sauce in it which I didn’t love. Even still my next trip to London I’ll be stopping here for a meal and a delicious cocktail - I’ll just bring my own hot sauce.

The lobster tail was my favourite part of the meal. Food was amazingly flavoured and came with butter and a sauce that enhanced the flavours. The lobster tail costs £5 more which is written beside in small font, which a few of my friends also didn’t notice until the bill came. The Mac and cheese is very tasteful and extremely cheesy (just how I like it). The prawns were also just delicious. The corn on the cob had a drizzle of sauce which makes this different to your normal corn. I did not enjoy the waffles as they were mediocre and quite dry. But as I did not come to the restaurant for this, this can be overlooked. I look forward to going again. Atmosphere is vibes and staff are very friendly.

My friends and I decided to give Trap Kitchen a try after hearing mixed reviews about it , this was mostly to do with the staff. However definitely not true!! Firstly the food was outstanding and arrived to our table in no time it was hot and presentation was amazing . I would say try it and don’t base your decision on the reviews!!!. Big thank you to Jamal !!!.very polite and a credit to Trap kitchen.!!.

We came here for birthday celebration. Their place is spacious and accommodating. Close to the underground station. All the staffs were friendly. Food portion is big. Really love the lobster. Very fresh. We ordered another combo because we liked it so much. The price is reasonable considering their portion and the quality of the food. Will come back again definitely.

I didnt want to go here but really enjoyed it, I ate everything, the crab got cracked up and the lobster was scooped, mac and cheese was good, really cheesy. Zombie cocktail was so nice, the waffles come out with your food but it would have been nice to have these come out towards the end of your main meal so you can eat them warm. Nice to see the chef pop up now and again to serve the food and make sure people were happy. Was told that the Camden branch is the first to have a mixologist - cocktails were banging. Pleasantly surprised by this place.

Everything on our menu is Halal. We serve alcohol.

Yorkshire Burrito

Pretty unique and pretty damn delicious. It’s basically Yorkshire pudding + succulent juicy chicken + rich potatoes + a tasty honey sauce wrapped in a burrito. Like I said, pretty damn delicious.

Portion is generous and pretty filling and very tasty, quality ingredients. Chicken Yorkshire pudding cost £9.50, but it’s worth it.

It was ready in under 5 minutes.
Until next time!

We practically booked a trip to London because this looked so good on a video, and it lived up to the expectation. Just a perfect Yorkshire pudding, but the roast was so tender and flavorful. The meat on a plate by itself would have been great; but the wrap is a perfect way to to get the whole dinner in a bite. Absolute must do.

I’ve seen this place all over Instagram and had to visit once I arrived in London. Overall it tasted good, but just average. I don’t think they put any extra gravy in the burrito and I also pulled a plastic string out of the beef mixture, that was not so pleasant. With this one the hype definitely overshadows the actual delivery.

Queue was long but moved at a decent pace. Make sure you queue at the right place - they have two lines, one for making orders and one to get the food. Just ask the people in Yorkshire Burrito shirts (or anyone in the line) to check if you're in the right place.

Food was good but a little dry, might be worth it to pay for the extra gravy!

First time trying Yorkshire pudding, and it came out fantastic. The beef was tender, but the sauce wasn’t quite much. I paid £10 for a big wrap, so I cut it in half and shared with my friend.

Cut + Grind

Not bad. Nice quiet place with multiple options for any vegans.

This place has a lovely ambience and in a good location. I had a halloumi burger which was very delicious and the fries were yummy. I had to pay for your spicy mayo sauce which went well with my meal. The staff were really friendly and helpful. I 100 recommend and will visit again soon ♡

Best burger I've ever had! Ordered a bacon cheeseburger a few times and it's been unreal every time. The v-cut fries are also some of the best fries I've ever had. Cut + Grind is a must for anyone serious about burgers.

All our chicken has always been halal and now we have been able to source halal beef as well. We must be transparent as we do prepare bacon on the kitchen but we keep it separate and bake then fry it separate from our grill.

Pinos Warung

As an Indonesian learner living in a city with no Indonesian restaurants, I've come to Pino's Warung a couple of times in hopes of speaking Indonesian and meeting some people. However, the popularity of the place makes this a bit impossible - always pretty busy! Testifies to the quality of the food. Prices are also good, and there's a bit of space you can sit down in and hang out while you eat as well. Recommended.

A gem within Camden Market. Authentic, unique and tasty Indonesian street food that is obviously very popular with the local Indonesian community. The staff are warm and welcoming, and seem to  be very proud in their creations, so don't feel shy to ask questions if you're curious. They also have a selection of Indonesian snack you can take home with you.

The taste was satisfactory. No problem with the food authenticity. However, the experience was quite off. The owner seems to be nicer towards the locals instead of his fellow Indonesian. Not very spacious as well as it gets very hot inside.

The most authentic Indonesian foods in London. Fun and friendly staffs. Best rendang, bakso and chicken satay with variant special authentic dishes every week. Good portion with good price. My place to go whenever I miss home cook Indonesian foods.

Absolutely delicious food. If you want legit Indonesian flavour and service then head to Pinos. I’m just sad it’s not closer to my house.

Angel Fried Chicken - Camden Town

Angel Fried Chicken

Uh K-Dogs n Juicy

This is the 2nd time to this place. I had classic K-dog with 50/50 filling. It looked good but when I tried, I and my partner tasted something bitter from the bread. I had no idea what it was. I would think twice to come back again. I am sorry but I wish I could give you a perfect 5 stars.

I have been meaning to go her and have finally made it over. This is nice filling snack. I like how they have veggie options and Hala. I got the 50/50 was nice definitely worth a try if you haven't tried it before.

Straight up best Korn dog in London so far.

Better than their competitor bunsik.

Here they use dough that's thick, soft and fluffy.

I usually go for half half, the turkey sausage has a really nice smoky taste and the cheese is good too.

I usually go for traditional k dog, which is sugar, ketchup and mustard or mayo.

They are halal!

I didn’t know what Korean hotdog was so I just gave it a try. I’m glad I did! It’s so delicious and definitely juicy! It becomes my comfort food right now.

Ordered 2. Cheetos one was tasty. The other which was potato fries, the batter wasn’t cooked fully, told the staff and they didn’t really care when I told them, wouldn’t give me a refund, told me she couldn’t do anything and just gave a free drink.

Andy’s Greek Taverna

How do you spot a good Greek restaurant? Greek people visiting it.

The staff is extraordinarily friendly and forthcoming, their Greek coffee (do NOT ask for ordinary coffee if you are at a Greek place!) is just like it should be.

Prices are more than fair, food is tasty, and they are expanding to a offer more of a coffee-house feel + more seating outdoors.

Finally: slightly off the main-road so it’s very accessible but not too loud.

Had the best evening here! Food was unreal, portions were big and lamb was amazing. Great atmosphere, very busy but service still fantastic and it's clear they care. They are committed to ensure everything is perfect from wine to free shots of amaretto. Could not recommend enough but make sure you book ahead of time!

I cannot put in words how the staff and the owners make us feel. But I will try.
We were treated like we were their family,  everyone is so friendly it's amazing to be there.
Everything  we ate was delicious.
Prawns, beef stew, the grill meat and a big piece of lamb. Definitely a place that I will be a regular. Next girl's get together will be there for sure.
We love Andy's Taverna 🥰

Me and a group of us came here for my friends birthday and it was absolutely amazing. The food here is so tasty and is made exactly how Greeks make it 10/10 food and 10/10 service the people who work here are funny polite and lovely people. Absolutely amazing service and prices are reasonably good not expensive. I'm so happy we came here the brought out the cake and sang happy birthday too for my girl it was lovely never felt more welcome in a restaurant then I did. Most  of the time I complain about food but this time I didn't complain once the food was so nice the meat melted in your mouth. Best restaurant I went to in a long time.

What an amazing experience we had, celebrating Greek Easter at Andy's. It was my first time and I cannot fault it: from beginning to end, Nikolaos & Petros made sure we had a great time and that we enjoyed the best tastes from the Hellenic Republic. The Human factor is what I'd highlighted the most - so necessary in this, indeed, challenging times. An authentic experience with some real friends and real food. Mains are very generous and yummy. I recommend the prawns in garlic butter sauce & the slowly cooked lamb. Warm bread on demand was also a nice touch.

Our chicken and lamb is Halal. Alcohol is sold.

Portions were really small, food was ok, nothing amazed me

Fantastic food whether you eat in or take away. Been going here for over 15 years now. The staff are great and always make you welcome. Highly recommend.

Food was great and came very quickly. The stuff we’re so friendly and really accommodating! The valentines special is just right and fills you up. Would recommend this place for everyone.

Convenient location, close to tube station. Amazing food and excellent service. Friendly staffs even offer a free dessert after knowing I am celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday.

Amazing service, the staff were all so kind and helpful, perfectly paced service, and the food was delicious! Decoration and interior design is also cozy and very well done. Definitely recommend - a great place to go out for a meal.

Lumi Camden

We’re always looking for halal brunch spots and after seeing @lumicamden all over Instagram, we finally visited them to try out The Fry Up. 
A classic English breakfast, with all the right components and a generous portion without feeling too greasy or heavy. Definitely a cafe worth visiting, good food, aesthetic interior and great customer service !

@cravinghalal's review of LUMI Camden on Instagram

LUMI Camden

Wanted to try brunch here after all the good reviews. Really wanted to sit downstairs which has the best ambience but unfortunately they said they book them for 8 people and more !!

Tried the American breakfast with waffles(halal), food was good but waffles were a bit too sugary . Liked the smoothies!! My friends ordered American breakfast wiht pancakes and liked it !! Overall a nice place but not the best in taste.

It was my partner & I anniversary today & we really wanted to try this place out. We were not disappointed at all! From the start, we were greeted and seated within 5 minutes even though they were very busy. We ordered the Fry Up & American Breakfast with waffles! Both were so good, one of our new favourite for breakfast & brunch! Thank you for a lovely afternoon 😁

Really enjoyed our brunch a few days before an important hospital appointment.

I got the all American breakfast halal version which was great, only slight criticism the pancake was a little dry and could have been a bit fluffier.

We also got the hot salt beef wrap which was great. Very nice texture and didn't feel too intense.

A delicious brunch place to try out with your friends and family near Camden Town! Their waffles, pancakes and French toasts were delicious. Their coffee was good too. Definitely one of the better brunch places in London. Would absolutely recommend it!

I decided to visit LUMI Cafe after a recommendation from a friend. We went around 3pm-ish. It was slightly busy but they managed to accommodate us (4 people) after a 5 minute wait. Menu was impressive especially their brunch section, but we were only their for some sides and cocktails. Unfortunately, there were only 2 or 3 cocktails available from the menu which was quite disappointing. However the service we received from the staff was exceptional. They were always on hand and attentive making sure we received everything we ordered. They have a great selection of cakes (vegan too, which is a plus!). I'm definitely looking forward to vising again soon to try their brunch menu!

Great British burgers and homemade rosemary chips

Honest Burgers Camden

Great service, we were welcomed by the manager Luca who made sure we were well looked after all night. Food came on time and atmosphere was great compared to other places we have been. Will be coming back soon!

Honest burger never disappoints! Had the special Buffalo blue and it was super tasty. Very quick service and lovely staff.

Best burger ever! It was cooked to perfection , very juicy and was a brilliant recommendation from the staff. Staff were very friendly and I would happily return here 😁

One of the best burgers I've had. Really juicy and tasty. Customer service was kind too. The only room for improvement I would suggest is for Honest Burgers to get a more spacious location in Camden that doesn't have half a door to enter through.

Super awesome burgers and super friendly staff!! Burgers are juicy and cooked to perfection, fries are crispy and we love the hint of rosemary! Definitely recommend anyone who’s in Camden to stop by and have a quick bite!

All of the chicken in our restaurants is halal. If you would like to see our supplier’s halal certificate please ask your server when you arrive. Halal products are stored separately with strict processes in place to stop cross-contamination. Halal chicken items are handled with separate utensils and gloves. Fried halal chicken burgers and wings do not share fryers with any non-halal items. Grilled halal chicken breast burgers are cooked on a reserved area of the grill separated by a grill divider. We do not offer halal beef at any of our restaurants.

12 of our restaurants (full list below) offer a halal Buffalo fried chicken burger. We will be rolling this out to more restaurants in the near future so watch this space. You can find our Buffalo fried chicken burger at Bank, Cardiff, Finsbury Park, Liverpool St, Manchester, Portobello, Reading, South Kensington, Spitalfields, St Katherine Docks, Tooting and Watford.

Honest Burgers

One of our favourite bubble teas in London have started doing Halal Korean toasts and Japanese sandos!

We visited last week to try out their new toasts. We went for Matcha Strawberry Japanese Sando - It is a fluffy milk bread sandwiched between a smooth layer of whipped matcha cream and fresh strawberries. It was sweet and more like a dessert! We also tried to Korean toast which was filled with Korean style chicken with cheese and lettuce! This was one amazing! There was so much flavour in the chicken filling with subtle hints of spice.

As always we went for the Ube Creme Brulle and Brown Sugar Creme Brulée. The drink itself is very creamy but not enough to be sickening which for me is key. I can definitely say this place has a firm favourite for a while now.

📍: Mayfair, Holborn and Camden

@halalmemoirs's review of The Alley Camden on Instagram

The Alley - Camden Town 鹿角巷

Noticed this new place opened in Camden.

Ordered the Strawberry Lulu and the popular bubble tea. Very nice, but didn't taste exactly like the one I had off Regents Street.

Staff was friendly and helpful too. They also offer 10% discount for students.

Few seats available, comfy wooden ones too. Will return again someday.

Shop is so close to the tube station, amazing drinks and friendly staff. They also offer student and NHS staff discount. Will definitely be back to try out the whole menu🫶 best bubble tea in London!!!🙌🏻

The Royal no. 9 drink was perfect, very refreshing on a hot summer day. The interior of the shop was cute and the overall branding of the company is great and aesthetic. The drink was around 3.78 with student discount.

As a bubble tea lover I'd say the bubble tea I got here was really good. I got the coconut milk with Taro and it was really refreshing and regenerative energy wise.
The staff are nice and helpful, the interior is aesthetically cool. The menu is specific ( some may like some may not ) like Starbucks.
Also when you order you get given this thing that buzzes when your orders ready which is really cool.

Would recommend and next time I'm Camden I'll probably return.

Ube Taro Brown Sugar Milk Tea (Medium) - was one of my most disliked experiences of bubble teas. The drink was well shaked and mixed before drinking however, the contents inside were still clumped and tasteless which clearly shows that the toppings were not fresh. It felt like drinking purely milk and the 'Taro Paste' tasted like drinking mashed potatoes - clumped sandy paste. The Alley had always been a great experience elsewhere but I was surprised when having boba at this store. The customer service was alright, with a student discount; lovely interior and seating space however. Tables are not wiped though =( Such a waste as I had high expectations, I thought it was just my opinion but my friends who tried the drink agreed. Perhaps I'd need to try a different flavour - I'll never have that Ube Taro ever again.

We are HMC approved. This means our entire menu and supply-chain is certified Halal according to HMC standards. No traces of pork or alcohol in the store.

Bun Boy - Korean Street Food Camden Market

I have tried the Korean Fried Tenders at Bun Boy Camden Market last week and I can honestly say the taste of the homemade sauce is the best I ever had

First smash burger I had in London and absolutely delicious! The patty was cooked to the perfection and was soft, juicy and filled with taste. The sauces and topping added to the flavours and overall experience. Highly recommend this place.

They gave us a piece of fried chicken to try, and instead of being crispy, was a bit chewy. Flavour wasn't bad but I think maybe the chicken had been done a while ago. So we decided to go for the Korean burger and fries and they were lovely! Loved the burger, I want to have it again!

While I was on holiday in London the best street food I ever had was at Bun Boy in Camden Market … I miss you Seoul burger sooooo much.
arrivederci until next time 🤌🏻👋🏻

Really nice burger, but meat was very thin. Nice people, went for the Korean burger but the wings and chips looks better than the burger

Cal-Mex style authentic Birria Tacos available in meat and vegan options

A visit to @birriatacouk after a year and it's even better!

The birria taco and ramen are a must order. Also while prices won't seem the cheapest, these guys take no shortcuts and everything is made from scratch, you can really appreciate the preparation here. Equally the nachos were so good, far from your standard ones where everything is off the shelf - not here, this is totally different!

It was the first time trying the ramen, and this was so goood. Loved the sourness of the broth while noodles themselves were really nice.

You really come to appreciate the quality of the meat here, and this is one of those spots pretty different to the usual dinings. Nothing over salty of overdone but just a authentic experience of a proper birria taco!

I'll be visiting again very soon now they have proper seating in a nice atmosphere 💯

@halalfoodtherapy's review of Birria Taco Paddington on Instagram

🔴 @birriatacouk 🔴 Located On Edgware Road
.
Back to this OG and the most authentic birria tacos in London after a year. Few months back they now open all week as well as dining in restaurant. This place ticks all the boxes and I don’t think you can get any better and authentic birria in London. They will be adding new dishes slowly and gradually. You can now get their New Loaded Birria FRIES 😍
.
Pictured above are:-
🔳 Beef Birria Tacos (£15)
🔳 Lamb Birria Tacos (£15)
🔳 Beef Birria RAMEN (£9.50)
🔳 Loaded Beef Birria Nachos (£9.50)
🔳 Loaded Beef Birria Dirty Fries (£TBC)
.
The beef tacos are elite and faultless. High quality beef. Slow cooked to perfection. The consume is perfection. Everything about it is just perfect. The perfect crunch on a birria is the key to a good birria tacos. And this has it. Honestly it’s hard to find a fault on this taco. I tried the lamb one as well. If I didn’t have the beef one and they only had lamb it would be still banging, however when you have both. You can tell the beef is way way way better
.
Beef birria ramen is also a side sharing you must get. If you love ramen as I do. This is must try aswell. I remember it being more spicer before but they had to adjust. However still has the kick and still so addictive
.
The new Birria loaded fries. This is what you call a fully loaded dirty fries. Ufff I added egg as optional and its a must order with the tacos. Try it next time and thank me later
.
All in all honestly it’s one of them places you won’t find a fault with regards to taste and quality
.
- Fully Halal Menu
- No alcohol served

@londonfoodjourney's review of Birria Taco on Instagram

Birria Taco

Family of 10 was hungry after touring London, came in without a reservation and the staff were phenomenal. Extremely kind and did everything they could to seat us immediately. Super friendly, fast service, and most importantly, great food. I'm from the border near Mexico so it's hard to find good authentic food in London. Very delicious, highly recommend.

What to say, have been meaning to come here for a few months! Don't normally go to Mexican places for food as non really around W2. The reviews made me come in all honestly and boy it didn't disappoint! We had the Beef tacos (each) and veg nachos and were truly stuffed! The beef tacos are sublime as is the consomme served with it. Truly delicious and wonderful experience, suffice to say we will be going back!
Oh and big shout out to Anthony, what a host!

Tacos were average (£15 for three). I’ve had worse and I’ve definitely had better ones from Camden (the best!). I couldn’t help but compare to the best tacos I’ve had. I tried the lamb birria tacos and the beef birria tacos, the lamb was quite bland, the beef had slightly more flavour. I was hoping the sauce would help but I was disappointed. The sauce lacked flavour and did nothing for the tacos. Overpowering with onions too but I did like the texture of the taco shells and the tenderness of the meat. I enjoyed the crunchy nachos especially the guacamole however for the price not worth it. The food took around 45-50 minutes.

Restaurant is inside Dar Marrakesh. Beautiful interior. Even have a space for cute pictures. Overall, mediocre food and I wouldn’t go back, not worth the price. If you try the tacos in Camden you’ll also be able to relate.

We went here after hearing so much about the Birria tacos and we just had to try them. Three tacos (standard) runs for £15 and the loaded nachos is about £8. I feel this is on the pricey side. We also got two jarritos, cola and guava which were nice. The meat was so tender but it lacked a bit of flavour, it needed some sort of a kick to really be amazing. It was good though. The nachos needed some more cheese and some salsa, it was slightly dry. The service was great and we really felt included in a great experience. I would definitely recommend going to this place but it just needs something more to be five stars. The place is also inside a Moroccan restaurant so if you wish to visit, keep an eye out.

What can I say about BIRRIA Taco’s the food is so delicious I had to visit here again. The vibe of the owner is chilled and you get to experience real Mexican flavours.

I can’t wait for them to blow up. The drinks are mad as well.

Chow Mein Noodles, Korean Fried Chicken, Loaded Fries, Homemade Sauces

Wok-Boy Bang Bang Chicken Camden Market

Very swift service, chicken was hot and delicious, noodles was okay. Staff were courteous. The packaging was attractive, and the stall has a long queue. Hence my interest in the brand. Experience was ok

The Bang Bang Chicken Chow Mein noodles with sweet chilli sauce was absolutely delicious! In addition, the Chicken is Halal and the people working at the food stall were really nice. The only con for this specific take out was that the food quantity was on the low side especially when comparing it to the customers who ordered before us.

Small stall in Camden Lock. Corean chicken very tasty. Good portion. Good price. Handy food container. Good for a quick Asian taste while in Camden

Dropped in for a quick lunch and wasn't disappointed. 2 Korean Chicken with sriracha, one with chips and one chow mein. Portion size was more than generous, food was freshly cooked and hot. Great value and highly recommended.

Amazing food. My life wouldn't have been fulfilled if I hadn't eaten this. Must must try place. It's just divine. I don't like chow mein so I went with the fries option.
Grab it and eat it with the canal view. It's a pure bliss.

Wok-Boy

Juice Junkiez

Amazing vegan menu - I had a shrimp bubble waffle (savoury) ! It tasted delicious and I contemplated getting one for home.

Had to wait 15mins after ordering and the ticket number system was all over the place. Prices were on the high side else would have got another.

Food was good but the customer service was awful. The guy who was operating was super rude and  misbehaved with us. He asked if we wanted chili on top and I said “Yes” but he was offended that I didn’t say “Please”. Like c’mon you can’t force someone to say what you want. I am visiting from US and this gives me a very bad impression of customer service in UK. He started giving me lessons on manners. These people themselves need to learn basic manners and the owner should take notice of this.

I don't know about the food as I've never tried it but cocktails are good and served in the same fruit. The watermelon one with rum was quite strong but piña colada was nice. If there is a lot of people ordering you might need to wait a bit as the customer service is not very fast.

Stopped by with some friends and the lady serving his was really really really friendly. Service with a smile and some lovely conversation

My friend bought a dragon fruit juice and really really enjoyed it. The lady serving us let us also sample some vegan Nutella they had and it was really nice, and I don't even like Nutella

Best juice i've had (pineapple)! No packaging required. Amazing flavours. Vegan friendly. List goes on... Simply the coolest juice company ever! I cannot wait to try their other juices, Watermelon looks great, when i'm back in Camden!

Our chicken is Halal. And we have loads of vegan options.

BoB Burgers | Camden

Best chicken burger in London FACT. I am also in love with the beef burger too. The staff are always friendly, they’ve been going for years - always consistent. It’s a real vibe. If you haven’t been before try both burgers you won’t regret it I promise. Bun, sauce, meat & cheesy sauce on chips is just bang on. Stalwart of the London burger scene. 🍔🍔🍟

First came to Bill or Beek back in 2019 and the burger was delicioso! And it soon became one of my favourite halal burgher places in London.

I've been to a fair few burger places, literally all over London and this is one of the best halal burgers (don't get me wrong it can get better and there are better) but the melt in your mouth meat was amazing.

Some tips: always order double patties, get them to season the patties extra when cooking, less honey onions and more house sauce!

With the closing time being 5pm, it was hard for me to visit, but now they're open till 8pm, I've been able to visit more in past weeks and is great news for everyone.

It's only take away so there's no readily available seating provided by them, so you'll have to find somewhere nearby or in the eating pods of Camden Lock to eat in.

Looks great on pictures, but doesn't really taste anything except for their burger dressing.

They claim it's smashed burgers, but the patties are far from smashed properly which results in that you don't get that great flavour from smashing properly. This can be okay if you have great meat and work with great balance on salt and pepper. However, it seems like they've basically skipped salt and pepper, based on the bland taste.

It is juicy for sure, and the caramelized onions are okay. But it doesn't taste anything.

Sorry, but I will stick to Burger & Beyond next door to this place.

Answer to owner:
1. The meat had some colour on one side, but it wasn't smashed enough to create the caramelized flavour you're looking for. Also, as a result with a double patty they became too thick making it hard to eat. But hard to eat is no problems if the flavour is there.

2. Yeah, human error always happen of course. Hopefully you get back on track with the seasoning. For a new person at the grill it can seem like you've added salt and pepper, but often it's required quite a lot of it to help bring out the meat flavours.

We visited Camden Market on Saturday and we ordered a double cheeseburger meal, beef itself was nice and soft, the caramelised onions are a nice touch but the burger lacked a flavour. We thought the price was a bit steep £18.50 for a meal with a coke. Cheesy chips were nice but the portion size was too small.

The best burguer i ever ate!!! Not only in London but in general!! This smash burguer with the cheese,this sauce, this bread....damn! Is a piece of heaven, everything is perfect on it. Mandatory stop in Candem market! I Will repeat soon

High-end Indian dining from former head chef of Benares

Ritu London

My wife and I visited this restaurant during a visit to London. The manager and staff were very welcoming, polite and attentive during our visit. The restaurant is tastefully decorated and classy with a relaxing ambient atmosphere. The food was beautiful, full of taste and flavour with a good spice kick perfect for our tastes. Would definitely visit again when in the area.

Fantastic meal - all dishes delicately spiced, and definitely not your conventional Indian restaurant. Service excellent and prices pretty fair. Will definitely return!

I can't recommend this restaurant enough! The food is amazing, beautiful ambience and wonderful staff.
The manager Francis went above and beyond to ensure our party was well looked after throughout.
The food flavours are absolutely divine.
I had no idea there was such a gem of a restaurant right on my doorstep. Ritu will definitely become a regular for me.
Thank you!

The place was overall 5 stars! The food , the cocktail and the service was all above and beyond! The environment was amazing ! Best Indian food I have had ( all great quality ingredients) and definitely the best service in London! Highly recommend!

It's been our second time here, it's a real hidden treasure of St John's Wood. The atmosphere is warm and staff / family owners are super friendly and welcoming. The food is modern indian, you can tell a lot of effort and thought goes into creating unique dishes and the presentation, very tasty. We will definitely be returning!

All our dishes are Halal and there aren’t any chances of cross-contamination.

Ritu

So, not something I do often, but had brunch today. Decided to go to @dishoom . Chicken and lamb are halal, however I opted for a non meat breakfast. Pictured - KEJRIWAL
Two fried eggs on chilli cheese toast. £4.90 and AKURI
Spicy scrambled eggs — an Irani café staple — piled up richly alongside 
plump pau buns and served with grilled tomato. £6.90 along with some malsala beans. 
The top dish pictured , AKURI was the best, spicy, flavoured and textured well. The KEJRIWAL was disappointing. The venue is very well decorated and worth a visit to experience the atmosphere. However, is not very good value for money in my opinion. But as usual, I recommend going to experience the quirky environment and judge the food yourself. Make sure to visit the rest rooms.

@halalfoodguy's review of Dishoom Kings Cross on Instagram

Dishoom King's Cross

Lovely place for Indian full English breakfast..Big Bombay. They added their own herbs to baked bean and scramble eggs and  dress up with coriander.  A bit different than the other restaurant.  Very asian foods style of breakfast. We told the waiter the bacon is a bit dry and overcooked.  They took away one of the breakfast cost as a compensation.

Service is good and fast although they have many customers inside the restaurant..Good ambience in the restaurant. The space is big and I like the modern interior design of the restaurant.  it is easy to get a table even through you don't booked online.

Great place for lunch at the Kings cross branch. We had not booked and waited 15 minutes to be seated at the bar. Kyle looked after us and was knowledgeable about the dishes and was very polite and attentive. He also gave us a tour of the restaurant and provided a history of the place. The food was excellent and presented well.  Would recommend a visit. Thanks again to Kyle a real asset to Dishoom..

Had an enjoyable lunch at Dishoom. The maitre d came over once we sat down and went through the whole menu giving his feedback on the dishes and if they were
too spicy. This is something I have not experienced before but was a very personal and welcomed touch.

We decided on around 6 dishes to share between 4 of us. Food was very good and the dishes had their own unique tastes. Prices are on the high side. Side dishes start at £4 and mains from £12. Expect to pay £20-£30 each
without drinks.

The food was amazing as always, one of the best indian places in London!

Huge selection of veggie/chicken/lamb/prawn dishes, with sauces or grilled.

The only thing to take into account is that the lunch kitchen opens at 12:00 so if you come earlier you will have to wait.

They also have a craft beer which was really good, made for them (Dishoom Craft IPA), although it’s not very bitter like a regular IPA.

Long wait, super busy, reservation is only for 6+ people.  When you try the food, you will know why.
Amazing Indian food with authentic Indian spices and flavors.  Everything on the menu is a Must-Have.

Our lamb and chicken is Halal. Alcohol is served. Bacon is served on our breakfast menu. Ask a member of staff for details.

The Blues Kitchen

It's a great little place, good vibe and music, our waiter was nice and chatty. My group of 3 came for the BBQ but there was only 4 options (which made us a bit disappointed) so we ordered them all to try out.

The food was good, everything cooked well but I wish there was a mixed grill option. The brisket came as only a sandwich which was disappointing as my friend wanted to just eat brisket. However the sandwich was good and the French stick had a nice crunch to it. The dipping sauce for the fries and sandwich is very good and we ended up using it for everything.

The short rib is really for 1 person not 2 so wasn't value for money it was still good mind you, I wished it came with a sauce as it was under seasoned.

They ran out of ribs and our table was booked for 8.30pm on a week night.

Even though the steak was nice it wasn't worth the price as a BBQ place you can eat steak anywhere so not much of a taste difference.

Do not expect American style portions, even though there is enough food to fill you up each dish could have been presented better as there was too much space between the food so it looked lonely.

I think I loved the sides more funny enough. Like their sweetcorn, fries, mac and cheese. Again small portions.

Worth checking out once, there are so many BBQ places in London so won't be going back I'm afraid but great for date night if you are not going there for the food so much.

The second time to dine here. It is sometimes difficult to find a seat, but as it was a weekday, it was available before 8 pm.

All the staff were delightful, funny and kind. I want to give it more than five stars. And the interior is quite tasteful as well.

The food was American style and very d. We ate BBQ short rib for two and Buttermilk fried chicken. BBQ was tender and smooth, and the chicken was well-seasoned and tasty.

I don't remember the cocktail's name because it was a recommendation from one of the staff and wasn't on the menu. But it was very nice. It wasn't too sweet but enough and didn't have a smell of alcohol which I don't like.

Lovey vibe. We were really excited for the live music. The food was delicious. The drinks as well. The waitress was the nicest. She offered a free round of drinks as the food was delayed by mistake.
While we waited for our table we were able to wait in the bar and enjoy the show
Also it’s a great location in the heart of Candem.
We will definitely come back for a lovely night out

Quite nice. Staff were friendly. Had the buttermilk chicken. My Mum said it wasn't seasoned fully beyond the coating. But liked it. She enjoyed the seasoned fries. I loved the Ginger Mojitio had plenty alcohol. Oh i loved the buffalo cauliflower wings. Delicious.....

Wheelchair accessible, but no accessible toilets. We ordered the sharer rub platter and we were going to order chicken wings but the waitress was really helpful and warned us it was a lot of food, so we appreciated that. The food came quickly. It was hands down the best rib meal I've ever had! The rib was huge and so tender! The mac n cheese was so good! Even the cob that had Crab butter and Lettuce with blue cheese had so much flavour... ! Can't wait to go back!

Our chicken is halal and can be cooked separately from all non halal options on request.

KHAAO - HAWLEY WHARF

Absolutely delicious, large portions and decent amount of seating available. £14 for a meal deal with melt, fries and drink.

I love the original Khaao in Camden Lock & this is just as great with the addition of seating! Also loved the new menu item called crispies- so moreish 😍 make sure you try their chai!

Went here to try their Paratacos. Loved their cheesy naan from their other place, this might I dare say was even better. I had the chicken one with some vegetarian samosas and a masala chai. Will definitely be going again to try their other flavours.

Brings the taste of Karachi that you can't get elsewhere! Highly recommend that masala melt!

The food is reasonably priced and extremely tasty!

Khaao

KHAAO - CAMDEN LOCK

Although it is a 2 person outlet the people were friendly. Prince the name of the person making the naans was very good in his job. The filling in the naan was excellent and I would recommend the malai chicken with fries. Tea served was excellent but a little less sugar would have been amazing. It is a value for money.

Wow! The cheesy naan melts were so delicious. One of the men, was really kind to us as we waited for our order.
The mango lassi is great, and the lamb shish and tandoori chicken (which we got ) were fabulous. Recommend!!!

The most delicious fresh food! Really enjoyed the food here, and would definitely recommend.

Fantastic, quick service with a smile! I got the cheesy chicken tikka naan bread. The portion size was very generous and filled us up. It was very messy to eat, so maybe would recommend having an option of a knife and fork. 10/10!

Quite pricey but the fries were nice. Sadly they can't be reheated so it's best to eat it fresh.

The cheesy naan and mango lassi tasted incredible. Fair price, staff was nice. But in my personal opinion not worth a 30 min wait.

ARABICA KING’S CROSS

The restaurant has a unique style, very comfortable place to have a nice dinner. The waiters are very kind, and the food is served quite fast. The menu offers several options to share; however, the portions are bigger than you'd imagine. Lovely for a dinner with friends.

Hmmmmm interesting place.
Some of the dishes were a great big hit but others, especially what looked like raw chicken, were a miss. Maybe it was because it was thigh meat but it just didn’t look ok. The garlic rice and halloumi were divine but the menu overall is overpriced.
A normal Coke or Pepsi on the menu wouldn’t go amiss.

Middle Eastern restaurant with an interesting and exciting menu, not your traditional. It's in a part of CDY that is quieter and a bit more low-key. Enjoyable outdoor dining experience.

Such a delicious meal we had before Christmas, great service and a lovely atmosphere. A good place to people watch!

Decent place on King's Cross to get middle eastern cuisine.

Service was especially good given we were a large group of 15.

Boutique hotel in central London with an Indian gastropub

Three Falcons Hotel & Pub

We stayed for two nights and I wish it was longer! The rooms may be small but they are lovely and beautifully furnished. The staff are friendly and charming and the food at the restaurant downstairs was amazing - you absolutely must eat here if you are staying, and even if you aren't! The walk to the tube is doable and there are also frequent buses making transit easy. We will definitely be back the next time we visit London and will recommend it for those looking for a boutique hotel experience.

Brand new.   Fantastic hotel, very clean and very well decorated. In a quiet location.  Great bar and restaurant below, lots of modern beer options.  Breakfast was a wide selection and the staff were all friendly, tentative and accommodating.  Would highly recommend.

Very friendly staff. Good location near subway, bus, not far from center London, on the other hand in quiet location. We stayed 7 nights, very clean every day room setup. We stayed in room 23 which was  big ,small issue was a small sink in bathroom and bathtub faucet was not operating good stream too strong sparkling all over, but it did not affect the averall satisfaction, need a fix. very nice pub, and food, we recommend the Hotel, and would love to come back. Thank you

Really enjoyed my stay here. Communication with the owner was swift before arrival. We arrived late but full instructions were given. Hotel is spotless. Room is very comfortable with everything you need. Breakfast is continental, extremely fresh. Will love to stay here again.

By far and large the best curry we've had in London! (And we've had many...) Yes, it's a few pounds more expensive than your average local curry house, but first of all it's not average, it's absolutely excellent, and worth every penny. Simply delicious, fresh and soooo flavoursome;  the four of us (including one Indian foodie) tried all of their curries and they are simply to die for! The staff was incredibly attentive and super friendly. We'll be back for sure and can't wait.

With Half-Term School break, many parents will be pulling their hair out trying to find ways to keep the kids busy.

We've got a fantastic one day itinerary to keep the whole family entertained. Here is our "Fun Filled Guide to Camden Town".

Looking for the best Tacos in town, head down to @meatheadmexican and satisfy your hunger with their sumptuous Birria Tacos. Fully Halal.

Did you know that Camden now has an Indoor Theme Park? The recently opened @babylonparkldn . From arcade games to Rollar Coaster, they have something for all ages. Plus they are currently offering 50% discount. Checkout their page for details. They also have Halal food options.

@thealleyuk have launched a new sandwich range. How does Korean Chicken sandwich sound? 😋 Fully Halal.

I think the best Vegan burger I have tried so far has to be at @neat.burger. It tastes so good that you won't miss having meat (at least for a few hours anyway 🤣🤣). Fully Vegan.

Then round the day off with really wonderful Bubble Tea from @goldenteauk.

By the end of the day, hopefully the kids will be knackered. 🥱. Unfortunately, ours never tire out 😩.

@halal_chronicles's review of Meat Head Mexican Camden  on Instagram

TACO TUESDAY 😛🌮 Finally got my paws on @meatheadmexican Birria Tacos, and it DID NOTTTT disappoint 🤤🥹👏🏼

@londonfoodjourney's review of Meat Head Mexican on Instagram

Meat Head Mexican

This place has been on my list for some time, and it didn’t disappoint.

We went on a weekday, so Camden was quieter than the weekends so didn’t have to wait for long.

Ordered two tacos 🌮 beef 🥩 and lamb 🐑

Beef taco 🌮 10/10
The beef was tender and soft, and with a hit of onions and lime, dipped in the consommé was 👌🏽
wanted to go for a second but my wife wanted to try other stalls
Couldn’t go to Camden without getting one of these!

Lamb taco 🌮 6.8/10
Lamb was almost like mince, really soft, flavour was a little strong, enjoyed it, but just didn’t hit the spot. I would recommend getting the beef over the lamb, wasn’t bad, just expected more.

You need an extra lime and those crunchy onions to hit the spot.

Guys behind the grill were friendly and looked like they were enjoying doing what they clearly love.

Would highly recommend - really glad this wasn’t just social media hype!

2 tacos for £7.50. However, you can't mix the meat - asked for one chicken and one lamb taco as part of the two, but I was charged for 2 separate sets of tacos - would help if this was more clear. Otherwise, the food is great. Tastes good but portion wise for me this isn't substantial for a lunch alone. As you can see the tacos are quite small and narrow, not filled as much as it could have been but I guess that's London for you 🤣🤷🏽‍♂️ The pot of sauce on the side was very oily - tasted like the sauce/oil you'd get in curries. Would definitely recommend as something to try whilst you're in Camden/London

We went here and found quite a long queue which is definitely deserved! We got two sets of brirra tacos for around £17, quite pricey, but the flavour was great. It was quite spicy which I enjoyed and so flavourful. The meat was succulent and it was just wow. Definitely the best tacos I’ve had in London!

Some of the best Tacos in London. Ignore the people that say their "service is bad"... Their service is fine. It's a street food stall, and they need to be efficient. If you want 5 star service, go to a 5 star restaurant. If you want 5 star tacos, hit them up. It's really that simple.

This small but mighty stall always has a queue and the wait is absolutely worth it, I tell you! The mouth-watering aromas from their pots will keep you waiting in line. We ordered beef tacos which come with a pot of birria sauce on the side. These delicious tacos were bursting with flavour. I'm so impressed I've been telling all my friends about Meat Head Mexican

Family-run Thai and South-East Asian dishes

Visited Bintang about a year ago and totally forgot to review it 😂
.
From what we remember, the food was great 😊 We got the BBQ Lamb Ribs (with Sweet Potato Fries) which Naimul loved as they were smothered in sauce but also really tender and crispy on the edges. The Dirty Rice was good too, and the twice fried chicken wings packed twice the flavour! Bintang is a nice little restaurant to check out if you like Asian-fusion food and you’re in the area👌🏽

@twopeasfoodies's review of Bintang Camden on Instagram

Throw back to these The Lamb Ribs from @bintang_restaurant. This place  deserves more attention. One of the most under rated halal places around .

Services tends to be hit and miss but the food is always on point. Always nice to find a halal place that serves up something different.

@halalfoodguy's review of Bintang Camden on Instagram

Bintang

This place is my favored. I eat in a lot of restaurants but here I keep coming back again and again. The stuff is very chummy and the cooking they offer is so flavorful. I never miss an opportunity to have a good meal in this restaurant. I recommend this place with pleasure.

I must say I was super excited to try  BinTang. It's been a minute However, now I've tried it. I must say I was disappointed with our experience. I think it was due to the fact that the Currys that we ordered were far too sour and the flavour balance was all over the place. It seemed to me more like an individual problem as opposed to a problem now face. If I had to come back. 

I can't wait to come back here and have those chicken wings, though they were one of the best  Fried chicken wings I've ever had. The flavour was absolutely beautiful and I would recommend it to everyone who's going there.

I'm not going to cancel this place based on a one off experience, I will give it a chance because I love all the restaurants that this collective has to offer.

This time Carried by.The chicken wings.
🌟 -6/10- 🌟

I eat in this great spot often! This is my favorite restaurant to pass a nice evening.  I visit this place frequently. The food is great, the crew is professional and the price is affordable. I enjoy being in this restaurant to have a tasty lunch.

An absolutely amazing place. Incredible food and nice, friendly staff. A must try place. Can't wait to go back

Really lovely Pan-Asian fusion cuisine place in an intimate, no-frill setting! My friend and I shared the wasabi prawns tempura; I then had Tofu/aubergine spicy red curry with egg fried rice, whereas she went for the chicken pad Thai noodles. The dishes were very flavoursome. Mine was subtly spicy (the "red curry" looked more to me like a spicy black peppercorn sauce, but I really liked it). The place is small (so blissfully calm even when very busy) and has a larger downstairs section. Do note that it is cash only. The slight downside was our dessert - a fairly tough, oddly purple-coloured chocolate brownie with matching lilac ice cream (but hey, why on earth did I order dessert in an Asian restaurant 😅). Attentive service. All in all, I very much liked it and would recommend/go back.

Full Halal menu. No pork or alcohol handled or served. However, we operate a BYOB policy so guests may bring their own alcoholic drinks.

Coqfighter Kings Cross

Coqfighter is quite new in the area, been wanting to try it for a while…

I had the Honey Ginger Buffalo burger and it was banging! Super tasty, chicken was flavourful and the extra toppings complimented it well. The bun was also really good.

Overall a really solid chicken Burger, I’ll definitely be returning!

All our chicken is sourced from UK farms and is Halal certified. Since removing the vodka from our k-wings. Our entire menu is now Halal.
