The Victoria - (Near Tower Hamlets, South East)

AceOfHearts001 Mixed Grill was superb (every grilled item had authentic taste and cooked to perfection - loved it), the rice is probably not quiet the Turkish type of rice we would expect (I prefer to have, works better as well) the improper choice of rice hamepers the turkish experience. Stake fries were great with cool deep fry basket presentation. Hot mezze was really good for £10, tasty and piping fresh. Cold mezze portion size was disappointing. Not acceptable at all. The grilled chicken item (not pictured) is really succulent but it is basted in the chilli sauce they serve (like a good PFC chilli sauce). I personally would prefer a different base flavour so the chilli sauce is not the flavour of my grilled chicken!! Theres a crossover somewhere between Turkish and a local grilled food/pfc of some sort and theres this need to go to a Turkish only place somehow...(maybe minor adjustments like adjust the rice, have separate menus etc.). Good value. Service is not so attentive but the place is cosy and seating is comfortable even the chairs have leather padding. Recommended for good value, reliable eating.

Barbara Lorusso Guys, this burger is dangerous…DANGEROUSLY GOOD! Got the truffle cheeseburger, and what an experience! Taste of truffle sauce in all my mouth, the cheese was perfectly melted and the meat…Legit, can’t even, this burger is perfect. And don’t get me started with the fries…A great portion of amazing fries with a hint of rosemary …Everything was LOVELY, so great i discovered this place, trust me don’t sleep on it!

Amiel Barrimond Buenos Aires Cafe had me smiling like I got away with something, and maybe I did. That steak mix platter... pure gold, like they smuggled it out of a vault. Every bite felt a little sinful, the good kind that keeps you quiet for a second. Service rolled in smooth, like they knew they had me hooked. If you go, go hungry... and ready to brag about it after.

Artur Pali Loved our meal at Cafe East! Andy is a great server, thank you for making our experience great. Prices are reasonable, food and comes out promptly and presented beautifully. Food is fresh and tastes great. The coffee is incredible. Highly recommend.

Sarah Fowkes They sat us at a moments notice when our previous booking nearby was not satisfactory. Their ability to be accommodating on a busy Saturday is what used to be seen as standard in the service industry, now sets them far above competitors. The ambience was very relaxed and extremely comfortable, we never felt rushed, service was on hand but not pushy, we were left to have our time together, which was perfect. So many places are overbearing and invasive these days as they want a quick turnover, but they know how to pitch it. The food was superb, we had the starters and mains ... just a couple of choices but perfectly executed. I travel globally with a large corporate hospitality provider, and am very happy when I find great places in London. People want experiences, not a quick feed at exorbitant prices, I was very pleased with this experience and will be back.

Hoha Fitness Grounded Bow is one of the best brunch spots I’ve visited in East London. The atmosphere is bright, modern, and welcoming, with a relaxed vibe that makes it perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a solo coffee. I ordered the Beef Full English Breakfast, and it was excellent, generous, well cooked, and full of flavour. Everything on the plate tasted fresh, and you could tell real care goes into the ingredients. The coffee here is also a highlight: smooth, strong, and perfectly prepared. Overall, Grounded Bow delivers on quality, service, and atmosphere, I’ll definitely be back to try more from the menu, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and tasty brunch in East London
