Premises Cafe & Bistro - (Near Tower Hamlets, South East)

Sadek Ali I was recommended this place for dinner after my friends went there previously so I thought I’d give it a try. If I’m not mistaken it is a family run Pakistani Cuisine restaurant that offers both takeaway and dine in options. It’s not a massive restaurant but there is plenty of space for large groups but definitely book a table in advance. There is a large variety available on the menu with emphasis on grilled foods. We went for the 3-4 people Mixed Tawa for 3 people and we had to take some home because of the quantity. The food is made to order so you will have to wait a bit for it to come out so getting there on time and ordering sooner rather than later is advised as like I said previously it is a family run business. But what I will say is the wait is worth it. I’ve had a lot of mixed grills in my time and their take on spices and flavours is unique to the traditional mixed grills you get around London. The meats are very tender and juicy and enthused with the oils and spices in the tawa. I will say it is a bit greasy just because it is on a tawa but this absorbed into the naan adds a lot of depth and doesn’t end up being too heavy. Overall the food is very good and it’s a spot I would return back to on a regular basis. I would give it a try if you’re in the area or looking for something new.

Elisabeth i sat down at mien tay expecting great food and those expectations were still surpassed. me and my dad came in here starving and i havent needed to eat for two days - it is very filling, the portion sizes are of incredible value.. you have been warned! the service was..how to say.. Minimal.... by which i mean very straight to the point, youre here for a delicious meal not for small talk with your waiter. had to call staff over rather than them coming to us but we didnt mind. starters were as good as we had heard, my dish (ginger duck + rice) was wonderful, flavourful, and hearty. it seems there is a lot of love going into this cooking.

Gor Ras Excellent tasting food, really liked the sauce/flavour on their chicken. The presentation and service was also high quality. Will definitely be going back

YK KM One of my fave spots! The food is hearty and really filling and prices are super reasonable. My faves on the menu are the fried chicken bao, steak sando and pork belly noodles. Oh and the mac and cheese. It’s always a good vibe too with music playing. Best place for Asian street food!

Joana Martins Amazing experience! Will certainly come back. The customer service is excellent and the decoration and detail is beautiful. They used protective masks throughout, and appropriately, which for me is reassuring. We have picked the super tasting menu, and everything was absolutely a delight! Not to mention the perfection of the cocktails served. Five stars, for sure.

C S Great to have a decent cafe, friendly staff, great food and value for money. Sadly Forest Hill is overwhelmed with pretentious places near-by, no where as good as Aroma.
