Lanterna - (Near Tower Hamlets, london)

Tony Bird We’ve just had our 2nd lunch at O’neils Blackheath in just over a week. Once again, the value for money is excellent. We’ve had a variety of lunches in our separate groups, including the Scampi, sausages and mash, fish finger sandwiches and cheese and ham baguettes and, with drinks added to the £9.95 lunch menu, you really can’t go wrong. Joe and the team (including Bailey the Cockapoo) really do generate a relaxed atmosphere and they were very helpful in making sure we got the best value for the drinks added to the food. They also take their time in pouring a perfect Guinness so if you’re looking for an enjoyable lunch, excellent value for money, nice surroundings and great staff and service, definitely give them a visit.

Rahel Ahmed The Classic Smash Burger was juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked to perfection. The bun was soft, and the toppings fresh. Service was polite, though the order took a bit longer than expected. The dining area and tables were clean and well-kept, making it a pleasant experience overall.

Matthew Phillips Absolutely impressed by the freshness and flavor of the fish here! Its already my neighborhood favorite with the generous cuts and reasonable prices. Happened to order a box set and a few extra slices of sashimi, you can really see the quality in the marbling of the salmon and the redness of the tuna.

Abdul Alim Loved this place. The portions are extra large. 10/10 for value for money. Whether you select breakfast or lunch you will not be disappointed. This is my third visit with the family and each visit was on point. Excellent customer service, friendly and welcoming. I dont hesitate to visit this.

Rachel Marriott Amazing food, great service, in fact the best curry we have ever eaten!!!

Khashim Uddin I visited Buddies after seeing their TikTok videos, and I’m glad I did. We tried the East End Burger, East End Wings, Spicy Dip Burger, and the East End Doner, along with an Oreo milkshake. The East End sauce was creamy with a nice spicy kick. The wings were big, juicy, and had perfectly crispy breading. The fillet burger was huge — honestly, I could’ve been satisfied with just that alone. You can really tell the doner they use is higher quality, definitely better than the usual PFC stuff. The Oreo milkshake was a hit with the kids. Even though I got takeout, the store itself looked modern and clean. Alhamdulillah, it’s a much better alternative to KFC, and it felt good knowing I was supporting a local business.
