5 /5 Rosie Sparks: I hired Papa Bagel in Leyton for my 30th birthday party and the experience from beginning to end has been absolutely stellar. I cant recommend it enough. Its a favourite local spot for my partner and I. The cafe has such a laid back vibe and the bagels are out of this world, so it was no-brainer when I was planning on hosting something a bit different for my bday celebrations.
Eleanora and Valerio who own the cafe have been fantastic during the whole process - emailing different suggestions for the food, layout of the space and decorations. The venue and bagels were good value for the exceptional quality we received. We asked our guests to BYOB but the team were also on hand to serve juices and espressos as well.
We stocked the buffet with all the gourmet types of bagels Papa Bagel is famous for via their platters, as well as a few boards of crudités and humous. All bagels were cut into quarters so our guests could mix and match - the perfect way to try them all! The bagels were a talking point of the night and definitely a highlight!
The space had round tables for guests to enjoy socialising, eating and we even brought a few board games with us. We booked the space from 6-11pm and it was the perfect chilled, wholesome vibe I could have hoped for. At its fullest, we had about 40-50 guests in the space. There is an outdoor area but sadly it was too cold to make use of it this time
The team gave me a truly memorable experience and went above and beyond to make this special for me. Thank youuuu ! Cant wait to drop by for more breakfasts.
