The Optimist Tavern - (Near , london)

S K Genuinely the best samosas Ive had from a shop, very fair price and they have a constant queue of people ordering which shows how great they are. They freshly fry them and able to do big orders i.e. i ordered 20. Their gulab jumans are so tasty aswell. Even in 2025, i was surprised that theyve kept their prices fair and i hope they dont change. Its a gem in Southall! Its one of those places that could go famous on tiktok because of it being so authentic Only improvement I would say is when we order, if we are given an order number so they can call the number out when ready for collection - otherwise its hard with all the other people who ordered similar things

Izzy Manuel Really lovely local chippy, really friendly and the fish was really well cooked! Definitely going back!

Navjot Singh Very good service with very friendly staff. The food quality is excellent and absolutely delicious. I enjoyed it so much that I ordered twice. Highly recommended!” If you want it more casual or more strong (5-star style ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐), tell me and I’ll tweak it. Salman, ashish, amit, sahil, Harpreet and jaspreet

Lorraine St John Bread and Wine delivers honest food with confidence and restraint. This is a place built for meat eaters. The meat dishes lead the menu and set the tone. Cooking is direct, rich, and well judged. Nothing feels overworked or dressed up. Fish dishes are available. They are fewer, but done with care. Good options if meat is not your first choice. Staff stand out. They are sharp, calm, and well informed. Questions get clear answers, not sales talk. Service feels natural and unforced. The room feels relaxed. Conversation is easy. Noise never takes over.

Emma What an absolute Turkish Delight. This restaurant is A-Mazing... Plenty of food options, with lots of delicious choices. Meat is grilled inside with open kitchen viewing, so inside can get a little hot. Extensive drinks and cocktail menu, the cocktails are strong & tasty. Environment is really cosy, and great for couples, families, groups, etc Food was 10/10, no room for any issues whatsoever. The chicken, beef and lamb was exceptionally cooked, flavoursome and delicious. Condiments and accompaniments were spot on. Total feast for a foodie. Staff were so friendly, and welcoming. And to end the meal you are given complementary Bakalava, which although I was stuffed; tasted divine and finished the experience off to perfection.
