The Three Johns

73 White Lion St, London

Fantastic venue. Had a warm inviting atmosphere. Only popped in for 1 pint this visit, but I’ll be back for sure, as the service was exceptional. Had almost finished my pint, and the staff offered to bring me another to my table, and greeted me with a smile. Small things like that are rare, but very appreciated. Thank you 3 Johns. I hope to try the food on my next visit.

Pizza Express

335 Upper St, London

I have a medical condition which limits my food capacity and often have to order from a kids menu, many restaurants I have been to sometimes have issues with this or will not allow me to do so. I called in advance to ask if I was able to order from the kids menu due to my condition and the manager on the phone was so polite, so understanding, had no issue at all with it, and even offered to reserve a table for me and the amount of people coming. When we arrived we were greeted by such a lovely waiter, the manager also greeted us and then asked if I was the one who called and I said yes that was me and he immediately handed me over a kids menu before we were sat. Me, and my party, felt so welcomed and the atmosphere of the restaurant and the staff set such a comfortable setting, we enjoyed the evening very much. Thank you to the manger and the team for such amazing & polite service!

Coffee Junction

42 Provost St, London

A very cosy and pleasant cafe with a nice location on a quiet street. Both the indoor and outdoor seatings are perfect. The service is very good and lots of breakfast options with average prices and good quality.

The coffee though wasn’t very strong. I found the Cortado needed a stronger taste and much less milk. Anyway happy to try it again.

Temple of Seitan

43 Parkway, London

The Temple Cheese burger was awesome, 10 out of 10! The Chik'n sandwich (I forget the exact name) was decent, the fries were good....the milkshake (I think it was strawberry flavor, can't recall) was not good. The wife thought it tasted like cough syrup, I thought it tasted chemically/artificial. They also lost a star because we went in when it was quiet, and placed our order...then 15 minutes later a large group came in and started ordering, and they got some of their food before we did. A bit chaotic and disorganized. I wish we lived near there though, if so, I would eat there every week! The U.S. needs a Temple of Seitan!!

The Bull Islington

100 Upper St, London

We booked here for our annual Christmas lunch. We'd pre-ordered our three courses, plus drinks on arrival. When we arrived, our table was ready, the food came quickly and Jose & Kieran took good care of us. The food was tasty - the pate was really nice. The pork belly was good too and the profiteroles were great with the salted caramel inside. The place was very busy with other Christmas parties, plus those just in a for a drink but everything went well. The only thing was that we were right by the door, so it was a little cold at times, but nothing major. We'd definitely consider coming back.

While it is not my favourite grocery shop in the area, there are few things I really value about Budgens. You can find some delicacies that are not available in other stores (Italian and Spanish mostly), they store a lot of Biona Canned organic food and they have a great choice of wine and beers.

I had the Rainbow Salad here and it was absolutely outstanding! Every bite was bursting with freshness, colour, and flavour — perfectly balanced and beautifully presented. You can tell the ingredients were top quality and prepared with care. The textures, the seasoning, and the vibrant mix of veggies made it a joy to eat from start to finish. Service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere made the whole experience even better. I can’t recommend this enough — I’ll definitely be coming back!

F.K.A.B.A.M. (Formerly Known as Black Axe Mangal)

156 Canonbury Rd, London

I came here with my partner for our aniversary, and while it isn’t the cheapest place for a student my god does it deliver on everything. Especially since I only heard about this place because the owner came axe throwing at my work place.I ate the regular menu and my other half ate the veggie menu and both of us had an amazing time. We couldn’t stop smiling at how cool the food looked half the time, and it all tasted amazing too. Our waiter Sam was a legend, there just enough that you never felt like you were waiting, but without bearing over the table. Not to mention we had a couple of laughs with him.The experience is perfect for anyone looking for intimate, friendly fine dining without the pressure traditional fine dining restaurants put on customers to be something they aren’t.It was a perfect anniversary dinner.Vegetarian options: The veggie options were good, though a little rigid with the set menu (that’s what you sign up for though. The quality of all courses was about on par with the standard menu, which is a very high standard to be fair. The only dish where one was notably better was the main where my other half would have loved some of the spiced prunes from my dish

Absolutely incredible! So, so delicious. So glad we have finally found our fave Indian again having been ordering from an exact copy in Kentish Town and wondering why we didn’t love it as much. Such amazing service on the phone too, delivery included, lamb biryani is the best I’ve had in London and a full Diet Coke bottle is only £2.90! Oh and they even accommodated with a generous side of Korma sauce! Amazing. Thank you so much - you made our evening!

Nando's Kings Cross

12 - 16 York Wy, London

I visited Nando's for the first time when I was in London. It's been a long time coming so I stopped for a quick meal at the closest location. We started with the hummus, which was great. I liked that it came with a peri peri drizzle for it. We ordered 1/4 chicken with chips and corn and the boneless chicken thighs with garlic bread and spicy rice (note: not spicy). The peri peri chicken was delicious--it was juicy and full of flavor! But, none of their famous sauces were particularly hot, which was a bit disappointing if you're looking for a serious spice kick. At one point we had six or seven of their sauces on our table because I tried combining different ones to make a spicy, or even appetizing one but none were good, which is a let down. The sauces are more on the tangy side. Garlic and Extra Hot were okay. Lemon & Herb is honestly terrible. Conveniently located across from King's Cross Station, the restaurant has a large layout spread over two floors. There was a line during my visit (approximately a 20-minute wait), and the bathrooms are located downstairs.

Ordered a pizza for delivery and due to a system error it came back wrong, Thankfully Raj(I hope I spelt it correctly) was able to help me and provide me with a replacement pizza. Raj was very kind, friendly and calm, despite me being slightly agitated/aggressive on the phone with him, which I feel quite bad about. Thank you for the amazing service and great pizza. Please give Raj a raise! He deserves it. Need more employees like him. Apologies once again.

Papa Johns Pizza

202 Hoxton St, and City

I’ve order here quite a few times and I would say it’s very hit or miss.The cheese pizza is either really hot and cheesy or stale and over baked.Sometimes the crust feels very tough and chewy but the jalapeño papa bites have always been delicious with the perfect kick of spicy and deliciously cheesy.The garlic pizza stick doesn’t taste very garlicky and the garden party pizza often taste dry and the vegetables don’t taste fresh and can sometimes be a bit slimy.The Oreo bites are really tasty,the cream cheese icing is delicious with the perfect Oreo crumb.Sometimes they do give a variety of different sauce pots which is great but usually they stick with the garlic and herb which can get quite boring.
