Taste of India - (Near , london)

Nitin Agarwal One of the best places in the area for authentic South Indian vegetarian food. Saravanaa Bhavan in Rayners Lane is always busy, which says a lot about the quality and consistency of their food. The dosas are crisp and perfectly cooked, the sambar and chutneys are full of flavour, and the idlis are soft and fresh. Portion sizes are generous and everything tastes clean and freshly prepared. Service is usually quick despite the crowds, and the staff are polite and efficient. The restaurant itself is simple and no-frills, but that’s part of its charm because the focus is clearly on good food. A great spot for breakfast, lunch, or a casual dinner if you enjoy proper South Indian cuisine. Highly recommended.

Jess M This is one of my favorite cafe/hangout spots in the area. It’s open till late, has tons of seating choices (indoor + out), free wifi + outlets which makes it a good study cafe but also just a great spot to grab lunch and catch up with people. It’s located on the corner intersection making it a good people watching place too haha. The staff here are sweet and the coffee is fantastic! I love their tuna sandwich. The music selection is always interesting too. A real neighborhood community gem!!

Coffee hound I go to Perkyns regularly and always feel so much happier for having done so. The coffee is delicious and reasonably priced and they have lovely bread and pastries (though go hungry - they’re huge!). But mostly it’s the staff who are part of the community, greeting people with chat or quietly just knowing what’s needed for different people. Going to a place where they know your coffee order always feels like getting a hug from a friend. Would highly recommend.

Laura Rebecca What a genuinely lovely restaurant! The owner and staff are so friendly and fun. We went on a weekend when they had live music! it was such a great vibe! The food was delicious, the drinks were tasty, and the whole night was fabulous. I can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend!

Lundin Williams Ester I’d totally recommend coming here for breakfast when it opens at 9:00am. We had breakfast for just £5.30 and free drinks with our Ikea family card Although the website doesn’t advertise this, the children’s £1.50 breakfast can include any 3 breakfast items you want! It also comes with a soft drink and piece of fruit, making it even better value!

Chaithra Sundaresh ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A True Gem for South Indian Breakfast Lovers! I visited this place for their breakfast buffet, and it was absolutely worth it! Priced at just £8.99, it offered excellent value for money. The spread included soft idlis, crispy vadas, a variety of chutneys, pineapple, juice, and tea — everything was served hot and fresh. A special mention to our waitress, Vrithi, who was incredibly attentive throughout. Every time we asked, she served freshly prepared dosas and pooris straight from the kitchen — something I’ve never experienced at any other buffet. Most places can be disappointing, but this one truly stands out for its quality, freshness, and service. The tables were clean and well maintained, and the buffet being available until 1 PM is another big plus. Anyone looking for a satisfying and authentic breakfast buffet should definitely try this place. I’ll surely be visiting again. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!
