KFC Bishopsgate

The day before yesterday, my friend and I ate our meal on the second floor here. I noticed that the gentleman in charge of cleaning on the second floor kept the entire small space very clean and tidy, and he promptly provided us with napkins. This is the most comfortable KFC I've ever experienced.

I don’t know what happened here. I placed the order around 22.30 on 15/01/2026 And the Might for One chicken was absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly just flaking off the bone. Amazing
I meant to get a lucky batch then !!

Restaurant was not busy at the time maybe 5 customers at least the Asian bouncers looked bored anyway

The staff member who served me  the one in the photo was very rude and unprofessional. Their customer service was terrible, showing no kindness or willingness to help, which made my experience very unpleasant. They really need to improve the way their staff deal with customers

First I ordered the wings meal and Mighty Bucket For one food was good 👍 Chip was very low quality tasty was just OK but the table was so dirty and the service was very slow even 4 stuff on the floor seem all staff looking for something. Need to improve stuff training.

Thania was amazing. To start,  she tookntime with my order and explained what suited me and what didnt. As a chicken wing fan, she explained the options and.helped me choose what was right for me.

Very thankful for the time and effort especially when it was so busy.

Great service.

In our KFC Halal restaurants we do not handle any pork ingredients, and all the food and drink items served in these restaurants are approved by the Halal Food Authority. This ensures the very best Halal food standards but does mean that certain menu items and limited time offers may not be available.

Another key consideration for us was that we were able to ensure that the halal certified chicken would also meet the rigorous animal welfare standards we employ in the UK, and we consulted leading animal welfare groups about this.

There is no compromise to our welfare standards. We continue to insist that our poultry is stunned before slaughter, using a technique called 'stun-to-stun'. We only buy high quality, Grade A, farm-assured chicken from trustworthy suppliers, who are contractually required to meet or exceed all relevant UK and EU legislation and this will not change.

Pali Kitchen

Tried the Kathi rolls here and they were excellent - the paratha was soft yet slightly crisp on the edges holding together without getting soggy. The filling was generous, packed with flavour, and had the right mix of spice and freshness. The chicken tikka roll which I had was smoky and well-marinated, while the vegetarian option (Aubergine potato curry) had a nice flavour and heat
Portion size is satisfying and great for a quick meal on the go
Overall some of the best Kathi rolls

Pali Kitchen is a quick takeaway-style restaurant with very decent flavors. My rice bowl was fresh and well-prepared, but I found the seasoning a little mild possibly because I skipped the sauces to avoid adding extra calories. Without them, the flavors felt like they were tailored to a more subtle, English-friendly palate.

That said, I’m open to giving this place another try, this time with their sauces, to see if they elevate the overall flavor profile. For now, it’s a solid three stars, but I’ll happily revisit and update my review if my next experience packs more punch.

The Butter Chicken Rice Bowl from Pali Kitchen is an absolute winner!  The butter chicken itself is incredibly flavorful, with that perfect balance of creamy richness and a hint of tang, and the chicken pieces are tender and juicy. Paired with the perfectly cooked rice, it creates a comforting and utterly delicious combination.
What truly sets this bowl apart, besides the fantastic taste, is the generous portion size. You definitely get your money's worth, making it a satisfying and fulfilling meal. It's clear that Pali Kitchen doesn't skimp on quality or quantity.
If you're looking for a reliably tasty and substantial meal, the Butter Chicken Rice Bowl from Pali Kitchen is a highly recommended choice.

Delicious food and generous portions!! A great option for lunch if you work in the area. The butter chicken bowl is my favourite, but go early because they can run out!! I've told my coworkers about this place and they all love it as well! There is usually a long line, but it goes super quick.

Food taste is decent however question is the quantity. They have this rice bowl option. They just fill a quarter with rice & curry and another quarter is with salads. In summary, the bowl is only half filled for £9.95. Once I said, it is only half filled and their response was that any extra would cost you £3.95.
In summary, the quantity of food they offer is never enough for me. My 5 year old child eats more than what they offer as standard.
I will never visit there again.

Gordon Ramsay Street Burger - St Paul's

One of my last few lunches in London, and thought I would visit Gordon Ramsay's burger chain to give it a try.

Made a reservation for 1 at 11.30am when they opened, and came to an empty shop within the quiet mall.

Ordered the chicken breast with avocado, as I don't take beef, and it was served within 10 minutes.

Fries were great, while it did look like there's a lot of spice and would be a little too salty, i find it manageable though i did take a few gulps along the way.

The burger however, was nothing to shout about. While a chicken breast is understandably hard to impress, I did expect it to at least be unique, but it was very much like something i could prepare at home with a good quality chicken breast.. That said, there was nothing to complain about as it wasn't bad at all.

Overall a decent meal, but not one i would return for, at least for the chicken breast burger.

Food was really good (next level burger has been the best burger I’ve had this far), drinks are very well priced, you get more than a fair amount for the price you pay and isn’t overpriced like a lot of restaurants in London.
Food was warm, served immediately. Fries are still warm after eating the burger, really nicely seasoned as well.
Staff was really nice and welcoming. Came by often to check on us.

Love the vibe in the restaurant, would definitely recommend 😊

Friendly, fast, and delicious. The staff have always been absolutely delightful and incredibly helpful. The food is fast but without question tasty. I personally love the next level smash burger with sidewinder fries. They also had ice cream with an editable cup which was a fantastic surprise.

A brilliant date night where we are looked after with a smile and we know we will love the food. An awesome location and even better service.

Delicious burgers! Smashed chili grill and the frenchy burger. Along with Hotter then hell fries. Alex and his team served us extremely friendly. The burgers we're extremely tastefully!
I would definitely recommend this place and when im visiting Londen, no doubt we will eat here again!
Thank you Alex!

The best on this place is the staff. The Manager is an absolute professional. I was there The first time some 3 months ago and the gentleman still remembered where I sit and what I ate. The sweet fries are the best, but all in all you get what you expect.

Our halal options include the JFC chicken burger, our Not So Simple vegan burger as well as our vegetarian Butternut Bhaji burger.

Yum Bun - Spitalfields Market

My third visit to this stand in over a week as food is quite tasty.
However, I got charged £29 for two buns and a coffee I never had I discovered on my card today. Neither of their terminals were working so the guy took my order and I tapped and paid. However there were two cartons when they shouted my number and I said at the time I ordered the double bun meal deal. '"oh sorry, we made a mistake" the girl said and said I could take it. I gave the second meal to a work colleague. But then spotted today not only did they charge me for both meals (OK, I did have two but only wanted one) but to cheekily add a £4 coffee to it too is beyond cheeky. I won't be going back. Check your receipts! £29 for lunch is unacceptable or is your poor handling of orders.

If you can wait, the buns are amazing! Tofu was beautiful! The staff were  very laid back considering it was lunchtime rush so my friends had finished theirs by time mine was done. They got my order wrong (chips instead of coleslaw) but ate them anyway. The passionfruit tea was delicious. I'd go back if I wasn't in a rush.

I can especially recommend the buns with pork….on a Saturday I waited for some minutes but it was worth…I recommend the “Yum Bun”

First time eating here and the food was DELICIOUS!
The portion sizes were a little unusual, as the side portions were actually bigger than the buns themselves! Would have liked the buns to have been a little bit bigger, part of our order was also forgotten, so we had to wait a little longer, however the food was great and the Vegan Tofu bun, I 100% recommend!!

Menu consists of prawn, chicken or tofu buns. Side orders compliment ie chips. Decent size portion. Variety of sauces. Absolutely delicious. Plenty of tables both standing and seating available if not peak time, though tables need cleaning. All made fresh in the spot as ordered. Hygiene was lacking in both seating areas and the open kitchen possibly due to the volume of customers.

Traditional Indian dishes wrapped up for lunch

Wrapchic

After spending several hours exploring the Tower of London, we worked up an appetite. Alot of options nearby, but we found ourselves here. Right out the gate I was impressed. Great service, very good prices, and amazing Indian food.

Good indian fast food near Tower of london

Fast service with delicious foods. Friendly staff and good prices for the area.

Very nice server. Caught them just before close but still was pleasant and made the food very fast. The bowl and quesadilla were so good! I had a Freddie and I loved the spice level! (She made sure to warn me too). Had a smoothie as well was incredibly fresh. Loved the meal and will be back for sure!

This food was EXCELLENT! I have few experiences with Indian food and maybe I've been missing out, but this is by far my best! They fill burritos with Indian food and it makes it so tasty and accessible :D got the Chicken Masala Burrito which was really good, a little spicy but I like a little spicy. The person at the counter was very helpful and helped me figure out what to order. On top of that, it was one of the most affordable lunches within a mile walk, about £10/person. Would go again if I lived here :)

The Ivy Asia St Paul's

We visited Ivy Asia St Paul’s for an early Christmas Eve dinner with friends at around 6:00 PM. As the restaurant was not very busy at that hour, they kindly accommodated us earlier than our reservation, which we appreciated.

The décor was charming and festive, and I was genuinely delighted to find a Christmas cracker waiting on the table — a small but thoughtful touch that immediately set a celebratory tone. The overall ambience felt lively yet comfortable.

The food itself was excellent — flavourful, beautifully presented, and with particularly strong menu options for vegetarians, which was a real highlight of the evening.

Unfortunately, the service significantly detracted from the experience. Our table server was slow and unorganised, leading to multiple mix-ups with our orders. From the end of our main course to settling the bill, the process took an astonishing 45 minutes — a time frame that included an unreasonably slow arrival of dessert.

When we requested takeaway boxes for our leftovers, we were told none were available, which was disappointing for a restaurant of this calibre.

The manager, however, deserves recognition for being prompt, decisive, and effective in addressing the issues caused by the service lapses. That said, it was frustrating that throughout the meal I repeatedly had to request managerial intervention just to keep things moving. Eventually, service was progressing so slowly that I had to get up myself to make payment.

While I understand that the festive season can be demanding for restaurants, the lack of efficiency and basic service training was difficult to overlook. Except for the service, the entire experience was wonderful — however, for me, service is a fundamental prerequisite when choosing to return to a restaurant.

Not worth the price. We went for lunch at St Pauls as a date and that was a mistake, it’s full of business people lunching and you are sat close together. I got the rib eye steak medium and it was verging on well done.
There was nothing particularly wrong with the food but at £180 for 2 people with one soft drink each and 3 courses it’s way too expensive for what you get.
Also the one in Mayfair is better for a date.
The menu has a good selection for vegans however.

I had an amazing experience at Ivy Asia St Paul’s. The ambience was stunning, and the food was absolutely superb. Service from Matthew was exceptional — he was kind, attentive, and truly went above and beyond our expectations. His expertise and recommendations were spot on; the seared beef and chicken teriyaki were both outstanding, and the cheesecake dessert was super delicious.

Thank you so much for a fantastic dining experience! Highly recommend.

The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and very authentic, with an incredible view of St. Paul’s Cathedral — that alone makes the visit worthwhile. The food was good and enjoyable, but not particularly memorable; I would describe it as solid, well-executed Asian cuisine rather than something truly outstanding.

Unfortunately, the service felt quite flat. All of the staff, including the managers, seemed very serious, tired, and not very welcoming — no smiles, and at times they even appeared a bit irritated. It was noticeable that they were understaffed or overwhelmed by the workload, which clearly affected the overall experience.

I would still recommend the place if service is not your top priority and you are mainly looking for a beautiful setting with a stunning view rather than a culinary revelation.

Tip: there is a corner table by the window in the corner of the dining room with the best view (shown in the last photo) — if possible, try to reserve that one.

This is our daughter’s favourite restaurant, and one of our favourites too, so what better place to come and celebrate her graduation! It is a beautiful venue that simply never disappoints! The service is perfect, and the staff are very friendly and professional. The food is exceptionally good, very well presented and tastes great too! We also had a great view of St Paul’s Cathedral , which was an added bonus! Will we come again? Of course we will, and I would highly recommend that you do too! 😀

KoKoDoo - Korean Fried Chicken (Shoreditch)

I really love the honey glazed fried chicken, very crispy and the sweetness is just right. Regular size is already in generous large portion which should be enough for everyone. It was 12:30pm  near 10 people waiting at the shop plus the delivery app orders. However I had my food on hand just in few minutes. So they prepared it amazingly fast.

My colleague took me here surprised when I talked to the owner in their language. Actually they are from Hong Kong to escape from the nonsenses and seek for a brighter future.

Just to say 香港人加油 to this shop and the lovely hardworking people!

very yummy fried chicken,
i tried sweet and spicy while my friend tried honey glazed, both are nice with a reletively big portion!
will try again definitely.
we have lunch there.

I bought lunch from here twice.
The chicken was tasty and service was quick. There were a few seats in the restaurant. Its busy there during lunch hours.
I had sweet and spicy chicken, also tried honey glazed one.
Both were nice

The sweet and spicy chicken is amazing and straddles the line between a little spicy and sweetness so well. Portion sizes are generous. The rice is done well for it to soak up the extra sauce from the chickren. The staff are super friendly as well.
It used to be a regular workplace lunch for myself and have fond memories of grabbing some food then eating it in the church garden just around the corner but I switched jobs so that came to an end. I popped by today though as a treat and can confirm that everything that kept me going back is still as true as when I was here last.

We had a wonderful lunch at Koko Doo, located just opposite the hotel. This small but welcoming Korean restaurant, seemingly run as a family business by a lovely couple, offers fresh and flavorful authentic Korean dishes. The owners were incredibly helpful and accommodating, making us feel right at home. A major highlight for us was that they serve halal food, which was an important consideration during our trip. Every dish was prepared with care, and the warm, friendly service made the experience truly memorable.

KoKoDoo

Spotlit, contemporary dining room for Turkish mezze, char-grilled kebabs and casseroles.

I visited Haz Bishopsgate this week with a group of eight colleagues for an early evening booking. The restaurant was reasonably busy, and we were seated upstairs quickly which was a good start. There was a brief wait before we managed to get someones attention for drinks, as our first request was missed, but once the waiter came over things picked up. Fresh bread, olives and drinks followed shortly after. We ordered a mixed starter platter and had asked for the vegetarian items to be served separately for one colleague. This was acknowledged, although everything eventually arrived across two platters rather than fully separated. Not a major issue, but worth noting. For my main, I had the Chicken Shish Kofte which was soft and succulent. The mains arrived promptly, and by this point the staff were much more attentive. It is a busy restaurant and, unlike some places where waiters check in regularly, there was naturally less of that here given the pace and volume of diners. Overall, a good experience with tasty food and the atmosphere you would expect from a popular City restaurant during the evening rush.

Really nice food. The starters and the mains were great. I had the sikander chicken dish. It was really nice. The only thing is that it's very loud when full (as you'd expect) so not the best place for having a full fledged conversation but otherwise really nice restaurant.

The meat here is halal.

Popped in for a drink and ordered a snack.  Nice bar area, didnt go into the restarant, cocktail was made well, snack was mediocre the one with goats cheese and spinach.  I would try the restaurant though as it wouldn't put me off trying it as the spicy sauce was delicious

Good service. Good food. Booked this restaurant for my wife birthday 🎂 had a great time. Love the interior. Staff were great. Very friendly. However, the price maybe a little too high for some. Other than that, we had a great time.

Haz Turkish was recommended to us, and I am so glad we took the advice. We hit the jackpot almost immediately: Happy Hour with 2-for-1 cocktails! My experience began with the  Jack Sparrow drink — it was absolutely delicious and the perfect start to the evening.

Then the appetizers:  the Babaganoush was truly the star of the show. It was incredibly creamy, wonderfully smoky, and bursting with flavor — truly divine. We also enjoyed the fresh octopus and prawns, alongside a side savory potatoes...and the fresh bread is incredibly filling! We were almost too full to appreciate our meals when they arrived.

Despite our full stomachs, I was incredibly happy to finally enjoy a properly executed Chicken Tagine. The seasoning with the apricots, nuts, and prunes was spot on, and the chicken was tender.  Unfortunately, there was absolutely no room left for dessert.

Satay Street Café

If you're looking for spice and great food this is the place! Bar height seating inside and a few cafe style tables outside. The interior is a bit lacking, better to take away or eat out front. Stir-fry with chili and basil is SO good, you can control the spice level. Chicken Satay is good however a bit too sweet for my taste. They do not have Thai Iced Tea. The staff is very nice. Highly recommended.

Such a cute place to enjoy authentic Thai food. The owner and their chef are Thai. Their Signature Bao Bun Chicken Satay & Beef Massaman, Pad Thai with prawns are my favourite.  Bao bun is quite similar to steamed pork in Vietnam cuisine with meat and satay sauce inside. crispy, tender chicken, and a creamy satay sauce. They have 2 locations: 1 food stall in Petticoat Lane and the other is this cafe restaurant. Highly recommend!!

Reasonable price. The Best tofu Satay in town. The peanut sauce was so AMAZING & JUICY serving with rice & pickle salad on side. The chicken Satay wrap was also super delicious!
We really enjoy our lunch break :))) Highly recommended!!!

One of the best lunch spots for a hearty and delicious satay chicken and rice! Always go for the large even though the standard portion is pretty hefty. The pickles are amazing and the rice is always perfectly cooked. I get it at least once a week and the staff are always friendly! Highly recommended!

The must try Thai restaurant in London!!!!
They have two market stalls in Shoreditch and Petticoat Lane market! (Always have long queue there, you can find it!)
I love all the dishes here!
Try it!!!!

All chicken on our menu is Halal. We do not serve pork or alcohol.

PizzaExpress

The waiter guy was not polite, looked like we bothered him. Ordered the same food, pasta with pesto, one portion was okay and the second one was full of oil, at first it was not showing because of cheese at the top, but underneath there were plenty of oil, my pasta were drowning in the oil. Waiter said it was normal, but how is it normal if the other portion of the same food we got at the same time wasn’t oily at all. Also they are not offering any hot drinks. Overall my experience was not good, the place is not so nice, would not recommend going there.

I attended a Pizza Express party with my primary school when I was around 6 years old.  It was so memorable and fun, that I knew I would have to organise one for my daughter’s birthday when she was old enough.

We had a kids pizza party in Tower Hill branch as our local branches in central London were booked. I am so glad we chose Tower Hill as the whole event was perfect, from booking online to the event. The space was accessible, spacious and we were able to store our pushchairs and have enough space to enjoy ourselves without feeling like we would be bothering other guests.

From start to finish, Giuseppe and his team ensured we had everything we needed and adapted it to suit the age range of the children. The adults had so much fun too! Every food item was delicious for the kids and adults. They all had so much fun and enjoyed we had enough time and space to The chefs were so kind too and talked to us about dietary options and the menu options.

The day went seamlessly and Giuseppe was always on hand ensuring that everything was sent on time and the adults had time to also enjoy themselves too. I didn’t have to ask him once or look for any staff. The pizza party menu was excellent value for money and the activities kept the children entertained the whole time. I am so glad I was able to take off time for organising a party myself.

Thank you so much Tower Hill team. We will definitely be back!

No, seriously, I went to PE, in Tower Bridge. My first visit in a while. The chef rolled the pizza so flat, I felt like I hadn't eaten anything. But it was still tasty though

Such a great place to eat! The food was delicious, and the staff were super friendly and helpful.

We had a wonderful dinner at PizzaExpress. The food was delicious, freshly prepared, and full of flavor. The pizzas were perfectly baked and the ingredients tasted high quality. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff was friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the evening. Everything came out quickly without feeling rushed. A great place for a relaxed and enjoyable meal — we will definitely come back!

PizzaExpress has used halal-slaughtered chicken for several years, but we have never been able to offer a finished dish that was Halal-certified, due to the presence of pork and other non-halal meats in our restaurants and as our kitchens do not operate halal procedures.

Whilst our previous suppliers provided halal slaughtered chicken, it was never our policy for that to be our only option. Since the launch of our Autumn Menu on the 21st September our chicken now comes from accredited suppliers that use both non-halal and halal slaughter methods, because we have recently increased our sourcing options on chicken to ensure continuity of supply during the current challenges within all supply chains.

Where halal slaughter is used, the animals are stunned before slaughter. All our meat suppliers are approved by the Brand Reputation Compliance Global Standards, a globally renowned safety standard and, all comply with EU or local animal welfare regulations.

If asked our teams in restaurants are trained to provide customers with accurate menu and ingredient information. In addition, this information is available on the customer support section of our website.

Please be aware that none of our other meats are halal and we do not have any halal kitchens or restaurants.

Italian Pizza bar, fire-baked Roman style, thin & crispy pizzas, super fast all day, eat-in or take-away

Pizza Union Spitalfields

We went to dinner here on saturday because it was close to our hotel. The pizza was very good! We really enjoyed the restaurant. And also liked the fact that your get a vibrating pad and pick up the pizza at the pickup spot yourself. Also the price was great! We didn‘t expect such a good pizza at such a low price in central London

The crust was super crispy and the sauce was out of this world good. Fast service made it even better, no waiting around. Definitely going back for more of that deliciousness. If you need any modifications, they're more than happy to help. Totally recommend this spot for a quick meal

The best place. Amazing pizzas, super quick service, great staff. Ita was particularly wonderful. Couldn’t recommend more.

Pizza Union offers tasty, affordable pizzas with great flavor and a variety of options to suit different tastes. The vibe is casual and welcoming, and there’s plenty of space to sit, whether you're grabbing a quick bite solo or coming with a larger group.
Great value for money!

These guys do amazing pizza and at the price they charge they have to be the best pizza company in London!
The pizzas start at £3.95 which is a steal. This time we went for the Calabria which was still really cheap only £7.95. Tasted delicious, I will continue to come here when I visit

Our chicken is Halal across all branches but it is not prepared separately to other meats. Pork and alcohol are on the menu.

Uzumaki London

The atmosphere was great and the anime designs and little details were amazing. The staff were really welcoming. Shout out to Steven for the amazing service. So attentive and friendly, and also brought so many laughs to our table.

The food was good but there were some things that could’ve been better. The Karaage wasn’t very crispy or battered, it was more like cooked chicken chunks. The cocktails were wonderful, although the mocktail tasted more like a healthy smoothie. Overall a really good experience and I will definitely go back.

I would also recommend this place to anyone especially an anime fan!

I recently visited this charming anime themed restaurant, and it was such a fun and memorable experience. The atmosphere was creative, with decor that made the whole place feel lively and unique.

The food was absolutely amazing beautifully presented, full of flavor, and clearly made with care. Every dish we tried exceeded expectations. A special shoutout to Tyler, who took great care of us throughout the meal. He was friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better.

Highly recommend this spot for anyone who loves great food and a fun theme. I’ll definitely be returning! 🐾🍽️

The service at Uzumaki was absolutely wonderful! All of the servers were nice and accommodating, and the general interior is beautifully done too. I ordered their chicken katsu, which was hearty, and a perfect portion too, as well as their mango chakra burst beverage, which was sweet in flavour. For dessert, I had the pleasure of trying their dango, which came paired with a tasty sauce!

Fantastic experience!
We visited Uzumaki after a trip to the British Museum, which is only a five-minute walk away. The service was excellent – friendly, attentive, and exactly what you hope for.
The ramen selection is great, and each table offers different oils and spices so you can customise your ramen to your own taste. The ramen itself was outstanding – full of flavour and genuinely reminiscent of Japan.
The manga-style interior creates a unique and fun atmosphere. As it was Christmas time, we even received small porcelain cats as chopstick holders – a lovely and thoughtful gesture, especially for the kids (we got four in total!).
We loved it, and the kids loved it too. Highly recommended – thank you!

My inner weeb loved this super nice place the vibes are really good. Staff are really friendly and nice. Would recommend the Naruto ramen and the 7th wonder ramen super filling but definitely worth it. Also got the uzumaki chocolate cake wasn’t a huge fan of it but I think it just wasn’t what I was expecting. Itachi dango was super yummy. 10/10 place will definitely be back 🫶

We have a lot of Halal options for both ramen and sushi. Halal items are clearly marked on the menu. Please ask our staff for details.

Galvin La Chapelle

We were given an amazing gift experience at Galvin La Chapelle for a three-course set menu with a glass of sparkling wine, and it was truly wonderful. We went for my birthday, and it made the day feel so special.

The staff were incredibly welcoming and genuinely kind from the moment we arrived. Every member of the team was exceptional. Dom and Matt were so attentive, the maître d’ was wonderfully warm, and the lady who served us dessert was absolutely lovely.

The whole meal was delightful, and we felt so well looked after throughout.
We’ll definitely be coming back.

Wonderful dinner experience with a 3-course meal. Even the only kids menu- Chicken breast with potatoes and mushrooms - was amazingly tender and delicious (comment from my little one).
The side dish - potato (foam and crushed) with winter truffle, was a brilliant combination, even better than the main. I mean, who could ever thought of making . potato so interesting?
Loved the dessert as well.
Highly recommend.

A phenomenal treat. The food, atmosphere and service are always impeccable here. It’s worth signing up to Galvin Club if you enjoy fine dining as they often have set menus at very affordable prices.

I came here for dinner by myself.

Overall, this place has a Bailie, unique and magical ambience. The interior of an old chapel is one of the more unique and charming Settings for a restaurant that I have ever seen.

I will say that my expectations were very high, as a place has Michelin  star. Overall, the Service was very good, but not extraordinary. The food was excellent, but again – I was not as impressed with the food as I would have expected – I feel the food that I got at sketch. Two nights ago was much more, outstanding, and culinary. Perfect and unique.

Overall, I would be unlikely to return at the Price point, but it is a quality restaurant, and I do feel that it is deserving of it status.

Mind the steps as you enter - the venue is beautiful and food well presented, but expected a bit more for 1 Michelin star.  Went for lunch in a large group.  Recommend the baba tiramisu dessert (share with 2 people)

Halal chicken can be preordered. Pork and alcohol present.

KFC London - Farringdon Road

I was trying to enjoy my meal downstairs at KFC on Saturday around 2pm but one of the female staff members was having a full-blown FaceTime conversation on loudspeaker. I know she works there because I come in regularly. I even took a short video of the situation (which I won’t upload for privacy), just to show how loud and disruptive it was. It would be much more considerate if staff used the designated staff room or headphones for personal calls so customers can enjoy their meals without unnecessary noise.

Ordered 10 hot wings which were great tasting, crispy and hot but my gosh were they small! Come like the size of chicken nuggets.
Staff not very friendly or welcoming guessing due to them nearly closing and rushing peeps out of the shop.
Overall one of the better KFCs foodwise I have experienced

Visited the Farringdon KFC branch on Aug Mon 18th lunch to get some gravy for my greggs sausage roll as featured on ubereats.
The gravy here is runnier compared to my usual KFC and not as strong.
Anyway after collecting my gravy on the way out I discovered there was a downstairs so when down to have a look as I have not been to this branch before.
On the way back up while I was on the stairs I was greeted by a lady member of KFC who said I could not eat my pizza here which hopefully can be checked on cctv.
The box was not even open nor was my hand physically holding a slice of pizza or was I was physically eating.
I felt like I was accused for something I didn't do.
You simply can't accuse someone for an action that has not happened or taken place yet.
Definitely not what I was expecting for a KFC branch in the city of London especially in a civilised office area.
A big Thanks to that definitely avoiding this shop out of all the other eateries in Farringdon.

I had a great experience The food was fresh, hot, and served quickly exactly what you want when you’re grabbing something on the go. The staff were friendly and efficient, and the place was clean and well organized despite being quite busy. I especially liked that the branch is halal certified, which makes it a great option for everyone. The chicken was crispy and perfectly cooked, and the fries were fresh and tasty. Overall, an excellent visit convenient location, great service, and delicious food.

I often visit this KFC because I work nearby. The food is always delicious, and I really appreciate how clean everything is. The staff is friendly, well-trained, and always happy to help. It’s a great place to enjoy a meal after a busy day.

HFA has certified KFC's products in these stores, and the store environments, as halal. KFC has also ensured that the halal certified chicken would also meet the rigorous animal welfare standards employed in the UK, and has consulted leading animal welfare groups about this. KFC insists that all poultry is stunned before slaughter. HFA allows the use of a technique called 'stun-to-stun' - a pain free process that makes the animal insensible to pain and suffering. A verse is also recited from the Quran at the point of slaughter by an appropriate person and the poultry will not come into contact with non-halal meat at any point in the supply chain. KFC only buys high quality, Grade A, farm-assured chicken from trustworthy suppliers, and this will not change.

Guilt-free, simple and nutritious dishes to enhance your mind, body and soul

Simple Health Kitchen

This place is a gold mine, the salad are amazing and the portions are big.

This is my new go to spot and what great value for money.

Have been here quite a few times for lunch and have not been disappointed.

Like it says in the name, the food is simple, healthy and actually tasty too, with a variety of options
(as long as you don't get there too late, as options do seem to sell out quickly).

Majority of the staff are very friendly and welcoming too.

Definitely a great clean alternative to stodgy lunches that wipe out your energy for the rest of the day.

Overall a very nice place for lunch. Great salad selection, and big portions if you go for the large box. I would of given them 5 stars but the chicken was very fatty. The spicy mayo is VERY spicy!

Cold chicken and undercooked brocolies. Service is fast and queue even on Friday is short. But extremely disappointing food. Ordered pesto chicken, but it was not able to taste any pesto at all. It had only a bit of green herbs on it. No trace of nuts :(

All veggies on the side were super raw. Had to bin brocolies and beatroot and microwave chicken back in the office.

At checkout they pack order, but don't put catlery in the bag.

The layout of the menu is all the rage right now in the city lunchtime market - choice of protein and x amount of sides. Having only been once I do not know whether there is a rotating menu. I did visit after lunch and found the food to be quite fresh, meaning that they probably restock often.

All Meat is Halal, Measures are taken to avoid Cross contamination with Pork. Locally sourced ingredients.

Delicious, freshly prepared Indian-style wraps

Naan Wrap

Had the paneer naan taco at Naan Wrap and it was absolutely delicious—perfectly spiced, fresh, and really well put together. The flavours were spot on and genuinely memorable.
Chef Josh and Nana were there as well, and their passion and warmth made the experience even better. Amazing food and great vibes—will definitely be coming back!

We’re elderly, and for health reasons we’re very intentional about what we eat. Generally, we no longer eat fast food.

Last Friday, we had a half hour to fill before medical appointments near Spitalfields. We were hungry. Wandering around the market (and not being attracted to any of the eating places), we noticed Naan Wrap, where a friendly staff member was encouraging passersby to try samples of their bread. The bread is freshly baked in an oven in plain sight. We decided to “risk” ordering from the very welcoming and engaging staff member (owner?) at the counter. I say “risk” because, as I mentioned above, we usually avoid fast food. We ordered paneer and chicken wraps with chips. Our food was very tasty, and nicely presented.

Because we had medical appointments, we decided to take home half of our wraps (thinking we’d throw them away if we thought them unappetising when we got home). Three hours later, after zapping our half-wraps in the microwave oven, we thoroughly enjoyed them.

Overall, our experience of Naan Wrap was a very good one, and we’ll definitely go there again when we’re next in the Spitalfields area.

In my opinion, this friendly, customer-focused business stands out in the very competitive Spitalfields food market, and I highly recommend them.

I am a tourist from Sweden and I have to say this was probably the best wrap I’ve ever eaten! Highly recommend it if you’re visiting Old Spitalfields Market

It was really amazing, I got the butter chicken tacos definitely it’s one of the best tacos I loved the idea the concept, I would try it again and again. Also the mango Lace was very good.

I was roaming around Old Spitalfield Market today and found Naan Wrap while been approached by a wonderful man. The sales guy was very professional, kind and knowledgeable about the menu.

We had 2 taco's and Mango Lassi. It was absolutely mouthwatering, special thanks to chef.

Naan Wrap has a very unique menu of mixtures, from tacos to wrap, rice box to Fries!

It's bit expensive, but the taste is definitely worthy. I'll highly recommend this place.

All meat is Halal. No alcohol or pork served.

The restaurant uses the same pizza oven as the Kebab store on my street. When we ordered a pizza Bianco, we got served a regular one - the answer of the waiter was that "it tastes better". Pizzas are small, thin, and unimpressive. The prize is outrageous for the quality. Mac and cheese sauce was runny and tasted bland. All in all, a really bad experience for a high price.

We visited on a busy evening and the restaurant was absolutely packed. The team managed to squeeze us in at a small table near the kitchen, which we were just happy to have! The manager was clearly leading by example, with her 'sleeves rolled up' helping the team take orders.

What really stood out was the proactive service. The manager noticed a more spacious table opened up and immediately offered to move us, which made a huge difference to our evening. Despite the rush, we were served by the manager and two different waiters, all of whom were attentive, friendly, and seamless in their service. Even the team member who originally seated us came by to check we were settled in our new spot.

The food was excellent as always, but this was easily one of the best Pizza Express experiences we’ve had because of the people. It is wonderful to see such a cohesive team working so well together. I thanked the manager on the night, but wanted to put this in writing too. Thank you for a lovely evening!

Delicious food and excellent service! The lovely lady who took care of us was incredibly sweet. She even told us that our table and another one were her favorite customers that day! I wish her all the best!

Really great value with my taste card and the revival of this chain has been remarkable , the venues are always tidy and modern and service consistent and of course food quality very decent. This particular branch faces St Paul’s which is awesome and has a great atmosphere. What you will get with pizza express is good atmosphere , decoration and consistent quality , price point is just about right for me as a middle income earner who is also budget conscious

Not bad, not the greatest but an enjoyable chain experience in a lovely location. Great fir large groups and reasonably priced

Tifinbox - Indian Street Food

Office Catering for Diwali - Wow! Such a super helpful team — amazing tasting food, generous portions for the price, and incredibly quick and supportive service. They were so understanding of our catering needs, provided clear labels for each food item, and delivered everything right on time. Highly recommend!

I absaulty LOVE this place! I used to work close by and now look forward to any trip near by... as I always go. Now I dont work in the City, ANY time I'm near by, I always try and come here as the food is sooooooo good and authentic. Best Indian food in the Whole of London in my opinion

If you want a decent Vada Pav, go elsewhere. Cheap and substandard, food served cold and upon complaining was advised ‘vada pav is always cold’. That boy would get a slap for such a comment in Mumbai but because we’re in London, we politely overpay and never return again! Thank you for disappointing! Reviews thrive on the poor British folks who have no clue what to expect!

First of September (1/09/2025) around 5.45 evening i was near to tower bridge London so i check in google there is any Indian restaurant near me so i find 3,4 restaurant then i choose this restaurant and its close 7 pm  so i checked what time i can reach there so 6:25 i can reach there and they are closing 7 pm so i think i can finsh my food within 15 mins. i call them 3,4 time they never pick up the phone and i start walking from tower bridge and  i reach there 6:28 and the restaurant was close but staff are working in side and lights on but the shutter was closed. So i took a picture of the shop and i never recommend this restaurant. 0 out of 10

Nice experience. Rush hour due to Lunch time. Ordered Veg. Paneer tikka wrap with wholemeal chapati. It was mouth full of flavour with fries and chutney. Aalo paratha was great with chole, Curd , onion salad and Chutney.
Really nice place, tasty food and good portions. very well priced! We only had a few sides but they were really so nice. The workers were kind and helping, the place plays Indian songs and the atmosphere is ok. Really recommend it.
I have also uploaded photos of things we have ordered and this will give you nice idea how fulfilling it was.

Vietnamese street-food specialist known for its 'Pho' noodle dishes

Pho Spitalfields

Great experience!

The food was lovely. The pho was amazing. Tasted rich and worked really well with the extra sauce. I also got the Vietnamese curry and for a specialized Pho restaurant, it was very good. It's competing for my favorite dish against the Pho.

The interior decoration is really neat and feels homey and all the staff is very friendly and attentive. I was served by a waiter called William. He gave such good recommendations and was very attentive.

Would definitely recommend and I would go again.

The whole menu is Gluten Free! First occasion where I could share with a friend who also had allergies. Delicious wings! Dishes full of hearty flavour! Generous portions! We got so excited we ordered too much! Excellent customer service! Highly recommended!

Amazing and delicious food. Visited this place during my stay in London and it was a life saver from the typical bland London/European food. The staff was friendly. We ordered Spicy Beef Brisket Pho, Pork Meatballs and Papaya Salad, each one of these dishes was absolutely yummy.

So good, family friendly, my kids ate the pho which is nuts. Service was amazing as well. If you are on the fence, try the curry, it's great.

William had been an amazing server! The food was also very delicious. I ordered the baby squid and also the Pho house but got the hot & spicy broth instead as recommended by him and it was just as hot and spicy as he was🔥🔥🔥 Give this guy a raise xx

Our chicken is Halal and cooked separately from other meat. Our chicken broth however is not always Halal, so if you order a chicken soup please ask for veggie stock.

Nice Pizza Express with a surprising amount of space downstairs. Good service for our table of 9 on a Saturday lunch time. Generous Blue Light discount of 20% off all food.

Great pizza and an amazing beautiful place to have a quick bite. There are several options to choose.
There are also sits in the basement so keep that in mind of you see that the place is full from the outside. I do not know if you need a reservation to sit in the basement.
The toilets do need an upgrade. Also there is no trash bin in the toilets to throw a paper after you wash your hands.

Padana is our favourite vegetarian choice. The staff is really friendly and this seems to be the best pizza express experience in london so far. Christmas office - 2 for 12 £. Location is middle of this beautiful market .

A delicious escape in the heart of Leadenhall Market!

We had an absolutely fantastic meal at Pizza Express Leadenhall Market. From the moment we stepped in, the atmosphere was vibrant and inviting—nestled perfectly among the historic charm of the market’s architecture.

I started with the Dough Balls PizzaExpress, paired with their freshly made garlic butter. And let me tell you: this garlic butter is next-level. Creamy, rich, and bursting with flavor—it sets the gold standard. I’ve had garlic butter before, but this one rewrites the rules. I could eat those Dough Balls every day and still crave more.

My wife went classic with the Margherita pizza, and it was spot-on. Fresh ingredients, a perfectly crisp base, and just the right balance of tomato and mozzarella. Simple, elegant, and delicious—she loved every bite.

The service was quick, friendly, and attentive without being overbearing. It’s clear the team here takes pride in what they do. Whether you're popping in for a casual lunch or a cozy dinner, this spot delivers on all fronts.

Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates great food, great service, and a touch of London Pizza.

Stopped for lunch, great pizza, excellent service, efficient, friendly with a good sense of humour.  Note for senior management, showing signs of wear so a little refurb would be good!

Fenchurch Restaurant

I visited with my girlfriends, and at first I was a bit confused by the menu. But everything was excellent. I recommend the tartare and the cod with orzo. I was pleased with the simple bread and butter, it's always a good idea. The cocktails are very mediocre, it's better to choose wine. But the place itself is worth visiting; I had a view of west London and the real St Paul's Cathedral.

Love that Saturday brunch.

We were made to feel welcome from start to finish.  The staff were warm and friendly.  The service impeccable.  Kerth’s tasting food menu was deliciously tantalising with your taste buds.   Definitely will be back and hopefully try the plated menu.  Well done to the staffing team you are a credit to Sky Gardens.

Food was excellent. Refined but spiced and generous. The Crab Rigatoni was incredible, it got better and better as I ate it. Venison was gorgeous if maybe a touch too sweet for me. Desserts were not on par, but I recommend the soufflé. In the website, it says that all tables have a great view; that is not true. However it felt very peaceful and enjoyable regardless, as there aren’t many tables. A wonderful moment!

We had an absolutely wonderful time at the Fenchurch Restaurant. The views, the food, the service everything was perfect. We celebrated my mother’s Birthday and our wonderful server Valentina even wrote her a little note which was such a lovely gesture! In general Valentina made our stay extra special and was very attentive and kind. The food was out of this world! Especially the veil chop made us gasp! It’s definitely not an everyday thing to do but makes every special occasion extra special. Thanks again to the whole team!

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at the Fenchurch (Sky Garden) London, England.

For Food Tasting, please ensure that if steak is included on the menu, the customer is asked how they would like their steak cooked.
Additionally, the overall food and wine pairing
quality was excellent, and all team members were very accommodating.

Chicken and lamb can be preordered 72hr in advance.

Patty&Bun Liverpool Street

Patty & Bun do really good #Gluten Free Burgers and take a lot of caution by labelling the packaging GF so it doesn't get mixed. The fries are Gluten Free so can be shared which is awesome. The service is fantastic, friendly staff, quick service. The Burgers are always tasty. I did feel the Gluten Free Burger at the Canary Wharf outlet was slightly tastier though but couldn't put my finger on why maybe extra sauce? But overall I'd never hesitate to eat at Patty n Bun as the food and service are great especially for #GF options.

Crazy to say, but this was the second best burger (incl. fries) that I ever had. Great flair, nice music but not too loud, and some really delicious Burgers - Medium if you want. The fries with chili are insane.

Placed a delivery order and was pleasantly surprised! The salty chips were incredible—just like fries back in the States. The truffle dipping sauce and chicken sandwich were definite highlights. The burger was decent, though not as memorable. Overall, it was a great, quick dinner—especially after striking out at a few places not serving food on a Monday.

Our server was Jasmine, and she was the kindest person we met during our trip in the UK. The food was absolutely delicious as well. We would love to visit again if we have more time!! Thanks jasmine ☺️❤️

Me and my Boyfriend had a lovely meal here on the off chance being hungry and wanting something filling. We were greeted by a lovely host named Jasmine who was very knowledgeable about the menu and got us seated quickly. My only hiccup was that the seats were a little uncomfy after a while but maybe that’s just my taste! We will come again thank you Jasmine and all of the team :)

Our lamb and chicken is Halal at all locations. Our beef is Halal at Kingly and James St.

Grilled chicken marinated with South American inspiration

Assenheims bar and grill

Large portions, so quite good value for money.

Unfortunately, I found the food quite bland. The green sauce is their signature, but I am one of those people who loathe coriander so the sauce was not good for me.

Not only was the food bland, it was basically cold. The potatoes were barely warm when served, the veg and chicken not even that.

The food came out very quickly and is clearly reheated rather than cooked fresh. I can live with that, but please take a few extra minutes to serve and reheat the food properly.

I come to Assenheims 56 every visit to London. The chicken is incredibly flavorful and the green sauce is unlike any other.

Unfortunately, they got rid of their old veggies and swapped them out with grilled fajita veggies (mostly just cabbage). This led me to my 4-star! The salad is OK, so I opt for this with potatoes. Even then, the chicken is still worth a visit.

It can get busy and the servers aren’t as friendly as I’m accustomed to, but otherwise, I always enjoy my visit.

Discovered this great restaurant when I was near St Paul's. They have a few locations around the city.

Absolutely delicious  food and value for money.

I had the beef patacones which is essentially tender pulled beef sandwiched between two massive crispy plantain "flat breads" but is gluten free.

While I didn't have room for dessert, they do offer dessert along with 2 vegan sweet options.  Lots of savory vegan options as well.

Staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and attentive.

Depends what you want. The portions are enormous it’s and value is great. The actual quality of the food is sub par. The chicken is ok but even though marinated, there isn’t a particularly special taste to it. The green sauce has no discernible flavour at all. So you need chilli to give it a kick. The rice is plentiful but looks more tasty than it actually tastes. The grilled vegetables weren’t grilled at all, they were boiled and over done, far too soft. So the meal was very bland but there was a lot of it so I left feeling full for little over a tenner.

Amazing chicken place with generous portions. On a good day one chicken box can serve lunch and dinner for me!

The chicken is very tender and juicy. It is also seasoned properly, with a mixture of spices, leaving a wonderful aftertaste.

Remember to ask for extra green sauce! It is a perfect match with the chicken. You'll never forget the taste once you've had it. For people who like spiciness, the chili sauce goes really well with the green sauce.

The sides are less impressive. Vegetables and rice are a bit undercooked to my taste, without much seasoning either. But hey, what more can you ask for after such delicious chicken.

Overall very good value for money. The waiters are helpful and friendly.

Chicken is Halal and HFA certified. Pork is served but prepared and handled separately to prevent cross-contamination.

Assenheims 56

Baraka London

The food was delicious and tender. We enjoyed it and it was tasty and the waiters were very welcoming. The atmosphere of the place was fantastic with lovely outdoor setting.
My experience with Turkish restaurants is that the portions are large; this wasn’t as large.
Also, no bread was brought while awaiting the mains.

Came for our birthday celebration lunch and I couldn’t have asked for more. Amazing service, food, drinks and ambience. The restaurant was beautiful and all staff welcoming and hospitable. Thank you to our wonderful waiter for looking after us so well. Fantastic dining experience!

Food was really good. I had the calamari and the chef’s special spicy chicken—both were flavorful and cooked perfectly.

The staff were amazing, and the ambiance wa

Pretty good Turkish food. The Centik special was a generous portion and had plenty of flavour. Probably more than I could eat. The tomato juice was quite watery.
Service was prompt and efficient. Both the quietest venue so it was hard to hear across a large table.

A lovely restaurant with even lovelier food and staff! The manager and waiters were all friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious. We got the Goats Cheese with salad as a starter which was delicious, for our mains we got the Baraka Special and the Yogortlu Kofte which were both flavourful and perfectly cooked, and finished with a Baklava for dessert. The atmosphere was great - the perfect place for a business lunch or a quiet date. Looking forward to my next visit!

All meat served here is halal. No pork but alcohol present.

Baraka

Well.. better than we thought! It's a place I've told the family about and wanting to bring them.. and it finally happened today.

I can't say we had a lot of great eats in London this trip, but this is one of the most competent so far. But I got to express a bit of disappointment in the service. There was no queue at the restaurant, we were seated immediately, but we could see how takeaways were prioritized as the wait after ordering was far from brief.

With that said, the pizzas 🍕 were good, I don't know which ones they were (family made the call), but we all enjoyed it.

Came in on a weekday for a lunch whilst travelling for work. Seated immediately, order came quickly and paid via the app. In and out
in 45 mins. Pizza Express is usually reliable like this and this branch is no exception! Thanks, will be back 🍕🍕🍕

We visited without a booking on a Sunday evening. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. We will be back! Keep up the good work!

We did the pizza making party and James was an amazing host!
From being the MC, hosting the pizza making demo,
love the energy.
He even offered the takeaway boxes even before we asked, 100% nice service.

Nice place for lunch / dinner. Also good vegetarian options - not only pizzas but also pastas and salad. If you are going in big group then expect to spend more time due to food preparation time and how busy they are.

Doughballs were very crisp on outside but still super soft inside which was great. Definitely recommend the raspberry cosmo cocktails doing the 2 for £12 offer currently available. As always used my gold membership rewards to get a great deal. Located around the corner from Liverpool Street station is very convenient.

Business meal for 150 GBP for 5 people. Good and tasty food, excellent service and able to talk without too much noise.
They have several dishes and even daily menu for 29 GBP with starter, main course and dessert.
Good, cheap and quick option.

Delicious pizza — thin crust, great ingredients, honestly even tastier than in Italy! The atmosphere is lovely, and the service is fast and friendly. The only thing — the name ‘Pizza Express’ doesn’t do it justice, it sounds too simple for such high-quality food!

Very attentive service and the food arrived surprisingly quickly despite it being very busy. Everything tasted great.

Service was quick and my waiter, Valdemar, was really friendly!! He showed me how to use the app to add a free side and helped with any other questions I had. Food was also yummy :)

Great British burgers and homemade rosemary chips

Honest Smash + Grab Liverpool St

Great spot for a bite to eat, with ample seating downstairs and an open kitchen. We visited on a Friday evening, and it was surprisingly quiet.

We enjoyed the Smash Plant: with Symplicity plant-based burger, vegan cheese, vegan burger sauce, homemade pickles, and diced onions. On this occasion, Honest Smash’d their veggie patties quite thin, making the edges almost too crispy to enjoy. Next up, Loaded Chips: Honest’s signature rosemary chips, with 5-cheese sauce, cajun spice, and spring onions. They had good flavour, but I had hoped for more depth in the 5-cheese sauce! All washed down with a creamy chocolate shake.

With the Smash Plant being the only vegan option, as well as the only veggie burger option, I’d love to see more offerings on the menu for non-meat eaters. Flavour combos such as BBQ, chipotle, or truffle — the menu already has these additional sauces for their meat offerings, it would make sense to use them to expand their veggie offering too.

For a fast food burger franchise, these are really nice burgers. Of course, if you want a restaurant experience, this is not it. But as an alternative to other Fast Good Chains this is great. Ordering is easy via screens or at the counter. There is some seating upstairs and a lot more downstairs. The toilets were clean.

The burgers are very juicy and filling. The fries with rosemary where so good. There is ketchup and mayo as much as you want for free, but do try the chipotle mayo. You can also refill your drink if you want. The chicken tenders were so soft and also crunchy. We went here twice during our holiday for a quick bite and it was good both times. Prices are decent for being right next to Liverpool Street Station.

It is great being able to pick up Honest Burger as fast food - I was served within 5 minutes of ordering. The staff were helpful and very kind. The place is kept clean. I paid £11.25 for a refillable drink, single patty smash burger and rosemary fries. The only downside was the burger was not as hot as the fries which were fresh out of the fryer.

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.
