ELIA - Greek Street Food (West Yard) - (Near Camden, london)

Alexander Vladimirov Yes, this is THE Speedys — the iconic café right next to Sherlock and Watsons house! -) Of course, I mean the one from the BBC-series Sherlock. Right nearby is the entrance to "that very house" where the shows characters lived. Although these days the “221B” number has been removed and replaced with a plaque stating that an Italian patriot once lived here. The café itself is very nice and cozy - perhaps six tables inside, plus two outside. The menu is quite modest and limited (it used to be much larger, as you can see online). The walls are decorated with film stills and photos of the owner with the actors. The owner was there during my visit, but he seemed busy and concerned, so I didn’t want to bother him. I should note that there are always people here. You can get a seat, but patrons constantly come and go. Judging by the opening hours (Speedy’s is open from 6:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday to Friday, and from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Saturdays), the café still primarily serves local residents, not tourists. On the other hand, there are certainly fewer tourists now — there are many more TV shows, and Sherlock is mentioned less often… Speedy’s offers excellent service. The waiter told me how he was there during filming (having worked here his whole life) and was generally very friendly and cheerful. The food here is unpretentious - very simple, yet delicious. The bacon is absolutely outstanding. English tea is served in a large cup with milk already added -) But then again, people dont come here for culinary wonders; they come to see where one of the best TV series was filmed. You can reach Speedy’s by metro; the nearest station is Euston Square. As for prices, they’re remarkably low. Which is another reason to love Speedys -) A tasty café, a place of interest for any cinephile, and very, very reasonable prices.

Chihiro ITO Its an easy place to go even by yourself. The staff take your order politely, and since they make it right there, the food comes out pretty quickly. It’s also super close to Euston Station, so its great spot to stop by before catching your train.

Kartik Shah Went here with family and ordered a large salad plate to share along with two pizzas and a pasta. The salads were very tasty and all the food was fresh. The place is very clean and well kept. The staff were helpful and courteous. Will definitely visit when Im in the area next.

Ivanne Gnaoure Best Turkish restaurant in the Golders Green/Finchley area. We ordered the Alaz House Platter and every single piece of meat was perfectly cooked; juicy, tender and full of flavour. The quality and portions were excellent. I would also recommend the Calamari!! I’ll definitely be coming back again.

Moshe Lider Food was delicious, service was quick. All the food was presented perfectly and there was lots of nice colours in all the dishes. Flavours were 10/10. Victoria our waitress was very calm, polite and pleasant. It was a very busy Sunday (a full house) yet we never waited more 15 mins for any course. The honey gazed tangy beef was something special (we ordered that twice). They had a few gluten free options as well. I will definitely be returning :)

Veronica Tortorella O Tino is one of our absolute favourite restaurants. The food is consistently excellent, and the Bife O Tino is simply outstanding and the kind of dish that keeps you coming back. Beyond the food, what really makes it special is the warm and genuine attention from the owners. They make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in, creating a friendly atmosphere that feels almost like home. A place we return to again and again, highly recommended for both the food and the heartfelt hospitality. Big thank you from your Uruguayan friend!
