What Clients Are Saying Kates Cafe & Restaurant (GG)
4 /5 Ushaka Defreitas: Love the service and atmosphere. However, there should have more variety of alcohol instead of just lager. Overall a good experience though
2 /5 PM Appah: I have been going to Katie’s Cafe & Restaurant for a number of years.
The food is good, atmosphere is good.
The only reason I’m giving it 2.5 stars is because they don’t have a children’s menu.
I went there with my children asked for no spice for the kids, yet I was given food that was so spicy even for me (a spicy food lover).
Need to have a kids menu or say you don’t have one, don’t say you can remove the spice whilst you can’t.
5 /5 Stefan Johnson: Great flavorful and spicy west African food.
Pros:
They had lots of different types of west African food really big portions, to be honest one portion conserve between two people at times. Food didnt take too long to prepare and was very attentive even though we had quite a few people at the time (8-9people). There wasnt a safe place to lock up while bikes outside, so the staff member was friendly enough to let her bikes in the bathroom so it didnt get stolen. This was a big plus!
Cons:
The only thing I can think of is some of the traditional west African drinks was not available even though it wasnt display. Plus you have to pay 50p per container if you want to take the food home, so bring your own Tupperware!
5 /5 Shola Suzie: I really enjoyed my meal at Kate Restaurant. The flavours were rich, authentic, and full of that true Ghanaian taste that is hard to find elsewhere. It felt like a proper home-cooked Sunday meal comforting, well-seasoned, and full of depth. The food was fresh, portions were great, and everything tasted just right. If you’re looking for genuine Ghanaian cuisine with real flavour, Kate Restaurant is definitely worth visiting.
4 /5 Kukua Akumanyi: My cousin and I didnt go here to enjoy home-cooked food when we dont want to cook it ourselves. Always delicious. Always plentiful our eyes are always bigger than our stomach so we always have to take away containers. I think huh. Either 50 pill or a pound of box. So if you dont want to pay for that take your road portions sizes are very good.
VP The restaurant inside the mansion is a real gem. The dishes are delicious, beautifully presented, and served quickly—perfect for both relaxed meals and special occasions.
For larger gatherings, I’d recommend making a reservation in advance. The team is very accommodating and will help organize everything smoothly, ensuring the experience feels effortless and enjoyable.
What makes this place even more special is the setting: the restaurant is located in a charming winter greenhouse, inspired by the famous Crystal House. Dining here feels like stepping into a unique blend of history and elegance.
There’s also a cozy bar where food is served, making it a great spot to unwind with a drink or enjoy a lighter bite. Altogether, it’s a must-visit part of the mansion experience.
IS 189 Came for Valentines day, absolutely incredible food - not a single dish from the 3 course menu was a miss! (me and my partner had 3 different dishes so all 6 were incredible). The atmosphere was cosy but not dark and gloomy, and the service was top notch. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for high quality food in London at a generally reasonable price! (p.s. the creme brulee was to die for).
AML Great experience! We had the American pizza with pepperoni and it was absolutely delicious – thin crust, tasty ingredients, and perfectly cooked. I can’t eat gluten, and the staff were super friendly and helpful, adapting the whole menu for me. I had a starter, pizza, and dessert, all gluten-free and all amazing. Highly recommended, especially for coeliacs or anyone with dietary needs. Will definitely be back!
Emily Pilcher Tried this place today while visiting Windsor and everything was so good. The lamb samosa and chicken kebab were excellent, and I was lucky enough to try a sample of the lentil soup with barley, oats and spices, which his wife had made: honestly incredible.
There are so many homemade options to choose from, including biryanis, egg fried rice, chow mein, soups and sandwiches. I’m already excited to come back and try the jacket potatoes.
I’ll 100% be back next time I’m in the area. Highly recommend!
