St. Pancras, Camden

Granger & Co. King's Cross

I love the decoration very much here. Its relaxing, modern, newly furnished. The food was fancy as well. I ordered the crab toast and it was good looking. The taste was alright though. Yuzu cocktail was amazing - my friends loved it so much. The dessert was a bit disappointing though - we were expecting some cakes but it turned out to be three layers of ice cream.

Went as a group of ten and were lucky that they could accommodate us all. With such a group it is sometimes difficult to get all of the dishes served at once, but they managed perfectly.  Very hip and relaxing, we sat outside enjoying the warm weather but plenty of customers chose inside to unwind and chill.  Service was swift and friendly. Food was flavoursome and portion sizes were decent.
Plenty of choices on the menu and reasonably priced so all in all a nice place to go to recharge.

Good place to sit and relax. It was open and bright just by kings cross station. It felt clean and nice. Ordered a coffee, ricotta hotcakes and the chili fried egg. Portions were very large but tasty. It’s the type of place you feel like you relax when you get in, especially early in the morning. It’s a refreshing start to your day, where you could probably sit for many hours to enjoy.

I have been at Granger multiple times and every time I arrive here I order the same ricotta cheese pancakes with banana and maple syrup. The food is delicious and the staff is really nice. It is a bit pricey but the pancakes are worth it.

I ordered the grilled cheese and kimchi sandwich and it was phenomenal! Just the right dish for a vegetarian to order for brunch (:

The service was also amazing with the waitress checking if we needed anything to offering us tap water without asking!

I would definitely come again!

All of our chicken is Halal. This includes our chicken schnitzel and the roast chicken salad.

Roti King- Euston

@rotikinguk

Went to @rotikinguk again after I think almost 2/3 years maybe more I don’t even know anymore, but either way the queue was even worse than the first time, I waited about 1hr 15mins in total 🥲 but in a way it shows how good the food is if ppl are willing to wait for it, found a place nearby as a backup & someone in the queue told me not to bother as it’ll disappoint so I decided to wait 🥲

Anyway, the food.

Beef Rendang: 9/10

Cost £8 & for me it was the right portion, on a bad day I’d have needed 2 rounds of it but this time round the rendang was soooo much better than the first time I had it, also the duck dish has been removed 😪💔 but it had like a mild citrusy hint to it as well which was beautiful.

Sweet roti: 7.5/10

Second dish was this sweet roti with caramelised brown sugar & bananas, this was really good but I felt like it needed some sort of single cream or double cream even to make it even better but was still decent either way.

Overall:

Food: 8.8/10

Roti King

Famous place with queues outside, people can't wait to get in for the incredible Malaysian dishes. Recommend this if anyone is looking for authentic Malaysian food. I've heard Roti King is known for offering nice Malaysian food, and they certainly didn't disappoint. The food is brilliant and absolutely worth a visit, even though very often, would have  to wait for a while before taking the stairs down and entering the restaurant. You would be amazed how delicious the dishes would taste. We come all the way from Manchester, and it is worth waiting for.

Roti King is a small diner located near Euston Station, the menu is well priced and affordable compared to many places around the area. Food tastes fresh and quite hygienic - obvious by the way we are able to see them cooking. Waiters are friendly and calm despite how busy it is! Be sure to arrive early as soon as its opened or you would have to wait in queue. Delicious Malaysian Food!

Classic hole in the wall type of restaurant with a limited menu where the food speaks for itself. You looking at Malaysian cuisine with a focus on Roti (obviously) and you only get one chance to order. This is good because it keeps the tables rotating at a good pace, which is handy because you can’t book and have to queue outside. We only waited 10 min though so not that bad.

Had been waiting to try this for a while, arrived before opening time and there was already a queue. It moves fast so don't be put off, but it is a quick in and out service, we were in and out within 40 minutes and we were there longer than most. They have tried to make the most of the space, but not much room for bags/coats! Food was good and more filling than we thought. Would recommend the noodle/rice dishes.

Great experience, it is well worth the waiting time in that long queue. Unfortunately they don't accept reservations, as the restaurant is quite small.
The food was so so delicious. The service was very efficient.
Highly recommended.

I’ve never been a fan of paneer, but N convinced me that if I ever tried a good Chilli Paneer, it would blow my mind. And where would we find authentic Chilli Paneer? A Street Food Restaurant of course.

Food: the first thing we asked for was obviously the Chilli Paneer and it was AMAZING, definitely the best i’ve ever tasted! Followed by Paani Poori (my favourite Indian starter 🤤) and Saag Gosht and Murg Makhni for mains. Both the starters were pleasant and the portion sizes were good. The curries were also decent but we found that they lacked flavour. The sauce of the Murg Makhni was tasty, but it was almost as if the chicken had just been thrown into the sauce and therefore hadn’t fused into the curry 🙄🤔
Service:  The service was neither here nor there. The waiters didn’t really seem to know much about the menu when we asked questions.

@twopeasfoodies's review of Chai Thali Camden on Instagram

Dinner with friends @ChaiThaliCamdenlondon 
Indian Street food and small plates from this recently opened restaurant in Camden. I'll write a full review soon which will list all the items I had, but I wasn't impressed with the food here, most items tasted average or too saltly. Was expecting better from grilled items like the lamb chops. I guess ever since I discovered Hankies Cafe not much can compare to the food there.

Chai Thali

Came here last night and the food was amazing! The starters here are very popular, I’d recommend their tasty samosa chaats. The food in the main course was flavoursome and yummy, the curries were very nice. Our waitress Yaz was very attentive and kind throughout our experience here although it was very busy she did not fail to accommodate and always kept a smile on her face! She is a lovely waitress and made our experience even better. Will definitely come back more often!

Ended up here after another restaurants poor service and what lucky mistake.. great mix of indian street food delivered in a clean modern environment.

Staff where amazing, freindly, knowledgeable and most of made us feel great about out night out.

Definitely an experiance to be repeated..

I visited for the 1st time yesterday and was pleasantly surprised. Decor was great, food was nice and our waitress Payal was the best. I'll definitely visit again, in fact, the only thing i felt was missing was Happy Hour! I'll be visiting day and night if there was happy hour so I can make it my mission to try all their delicious cocktails :)

We went during the help out eat out government scheme. We were unsure if it was 50% or £10 off per head. We asked the waitress 3 times and she said anything we order off the menu is 50% off but not the alcohol, so we carried on and ordered our food knowing its 50% off. Later when the bill came we realised it wasn't 50% off and only £10 off per head. We later asked for the manager, but he sent over a waiter (eventhough we were the last customers and he was standing around). The waiter explained that this is a new scheme and the waitress said something she shouldn't have. So what we said was the staff should be trained or been explained thoroughly about the new scheme beforehand so they provide customers with the right information. 

However, the waiter we was talking to took this situation personally and kept saying we are all human and that we should have understood the scheme beforehand too, he was hyping without even listening to us or understanding what we were saying. He even said they've had so many customers but no one has complained. Our whole point was that we were given false information and he misinterpreted the whole situation. I found this extremely rude, as we just gave our feedback that the staff should be trained. The waiters response and approach was appalling, although we already agreed to pay the amount. 

Not visiting this place again, over priced for small bowls of curry too. It's a shame because its a nice restaurant, the waitress put the fan on in our request and changed the song for us! Also the atmosphere was nice. So two stars for the waitress and the atmosphere.

I love this place! The atmosphere is so warm and cosy and super thoughtful! I love all the food and my favourite dessert was hands down the white chocolate samosas!

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.

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 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.

Really nice. Staff were so friendly and helpful. The lady serving us took her time to explain and nothing was too much trouble. I had the lamb shank, which was a massive portion. My friend is vegan and she had the cauliflower dish. Both dishes were so so tasty, I will definitely go again. Cocktails were great as well and it's very easy to find.

Delicious food and really friendly staff. We went for the tasting menu which was great but all came a little fast and could have used a bit more description on what was what. I would thoroughly recommend a visit

Was our first time here, and it didn’t disappoint. Great food and friendly staff. Food wasn’t cheap but the taste was lovely. It was nice to not be rushed as well as I knew they were closing soon but they said to take our time.

I have been living in london since birth and never tried this food, the vibe of the place is really nice. Staff were also lovely. Food is diverse and really adds to the experience. I would highly recommend visiting.

Had the meat sharing menu. So much food and so tasty every dish was amazing. Not too spicy as well which I was a bit worried about. We ate so much but still couldnt eat it all. The photo shows less than half the food we had. Really loved the drinks we had as well. Definitely will come back.

Tortilla and burrito joint that charges extra for guacamole!

Tortilla Kings Cross

I usually come her for Sunday lunch after my classes at the nearby gym. They have one  halal chicken option which I usually go for and the serving is really generous which I pointed out to the serving staff :) staff were kind enough to give me extra hot sauce, a glass for my drink and takeaway box for my left over portion. Great place and plenty of different seating in a nice surrounding. Strongly recommend!

I visited tortilla in Kings Cross yesterday, the restaurant was looking clean and nice.
I have ordered a large barbacoa burrito with guacamole and it tasted very good. Food was warm, tasty and fresh what is hard to find nowadays in London. The staff very friendly and helpful! They took their time to explain everything to me and they were very polite.
I will definitely come back!

Tortilla offer great tasting, fresh Mexican food at a good price. They are conveniently located between St Pancras and Kings Cross Railway stations, perfect for filling up before or after a railway journey. They offer an eat in or takeaway service along with a pre-order online service. I always have a burrito so cannot comment on any other food on offer but the ingredients are all on display and you choose exactly what you want to go into your burrito so it is fresh and just how you want it. You can choose from pork, beef or chicken burritos and there is a very good selection of fresh ingredients to choose from to add to it. All staff members are always friendly and very helpful, I highly recommend a trip to any Tortilla but this and the Oxford Circus Tortilla are my favourite Tortilla branches.

The street tacos were amazing...  very fresh food and well prepared.  This place had a very efficient staff that served a large amount of folks quickly and yet made us feel important...  now that is a real feat.  Good work!

It's cheap but good Mexican burrito. Service is quick (at least when empty) and the portion size was huge. I've started to have a reaction to spicy sauces and jallepenos but the mild sauce in this meal was just perfect, not too hot and good on the tummy :)
