KFC East Finchley - High Road - (Near Barnet, london)

Justade I usually come here every week. Having tried several other cafes in the area this has turned out to be the best. I usually have a HOT latte and the large breakfast which is Full of flavour and juicy, especially the mushroom. Even though its quite a popular place you dont have to wait long for food. THERES A NICE VEIW TOO. Theres plenty of room to get around with pushchairs and wheel chairs. Despite having some really nice staff I would say it does lack that cosey ambiance that you would normally find in a smaller coffee shop. How ever this isnt a small coffee shop. This is a larger place on a farm with an adjoining farm shop. Its still quiet enough to chat with out raising your voice Theres plenty of parking and there is also a small play area outside with a little wildlife section. Theres just something nice about the place.

Harry Goldsmith Visited The Sussex Ox recently and it was a great experience. The setting is beautiful, especially with the views over the South Downs perfect spot for a relaxed meal. The food was excellent, really fresh and well presented, and the portions were generous. Service was friendly and welcoming without feeling over the top. A proper countryside pub with quality food and a great atmosphere. Would happily return.

Mo R We took a random trip down to Brighton on Sunday and decided to have Thai. This was the first restaurant that popped up and glad it hit the mark. We went on a very quiet day, only one other family in the restaurant with us. Service was excellent with an attentive waiter who made sure we were comfortable and even moved the heater near us as it was a freezing day. Food, I love a red Thai curry and enjoyed the chicken. Creamy sauce with added spice at our request. Starters were nice and fresh, chicken satay with a portion of squid also. Will return next time we have a random trip out to Brighton from London.

Yodou Stylianou Went there last night for the 1st time with my cousin, to celebrate my birthday and were so glad that we did. The food, from starters to dessert was amazing & the service was impeccable. They bent over backwards to please us and even made cocktails for me, that were not on the menu. I highly recommend the Escargots, Duck, Pomme Dauphinoise, Sea Bass & Tarte Tatin for dessert. The staff were lovely and I will definitely be returning. It was a perfect birthday experience, that I will treasure.

Alan Bull A great place for tea, coffee and cakes. Located inside Longacres garden centre, with indoor and outdoor seating. Can have long queues during busy lunch and weekend times. Scones, cakes and pastries are delicious. Not the cheapest place to eat though.

Elizabeth Omahoney Lucia Café in Wood Green is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff go above and beyond to make you feel at home. Wassim and Kristi are fantastic – friendly, attentive, and always serving with a smile. The coffee here is truly exceptional — rich, smooth, and perfectly made every time. The food is just as impressive: fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether you’re stopping by for breakfast, lunch, or just a quick coffee break, Lucia Café never disappoints. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great service, delicious food, and the best coffee in the area. A definite five-star experience!
