As a Turkish Cypriot who was raised on Mediterranean dishes, I have to say, the dolma box here is amazing! Better than any other restaurant I've had it in! Fluffy rice wrapped tightly in vine leaves, dressed in pomegranate sauce, served with a very generous helping of salad and a dollop of tasty hummus. It's just beautiful. For 8.95, you will be satisfied for hours. Completely vegan too! On a sunny day, it's nice to grab this for lunch and have it on one of the benches outside. The falafel wrap here is delicious too. Try it! Very happy, enthusiastic service. An absolute pleasure

I love this place because the food is delicious and very reasonably priced, service is always excellent, efficient and friendly, and the setting is very pleasant. I highly recommend the chicken mixed salad box, with falafel to die for I was told today that they’re looking for a new member of staff, with flexible hours (ideal for someone with childcare to drop off and pick-up the kids) and training provided; rate of pay unknown.

I love this place. Their coffee and food are great. There is a special recipe for falafel. A little spicy for me. But the tuna sandwich is incredible. Their coffee is one of the best in London. It will be better than your guess. Staff are very respectful. He always listens to you and gives advice. Thank you all.

Fantastic falafel box with excellent service! The falafels were crisp and tasty, the salad was fresh - overall a very satisfying and delicious meal. To top it off, the guys there were also very friendly! I love falafels and have tried many places across London. I am glad I tried the ones here and will definitely be back again. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a wholesome meal!

Just ate here after finishing up the Thames Path walk from Woolwich to the source near Kemble. Excellent food. Great service. Large portions. Right outside the mall near Canada Water underground. Beside a barbershop. I’ll try the coffee and baklava next time.
