👍👍 This place is a Gem in London. Best place for authentic Lahore style food just as you would get in any decent restaurant in Lahore. Super busy and a long cue outside but luckily we phoned head and got a table ready. Kudos to the chef. This place was on par with any food place iv been to in London. S...

    This place is a Gem in London. Best place for authentic Lahore style food just as you would get in any decent restaurant in Lahore. Super busy and a long cue outside but luckily we phoned head and got a table ready. Kudos to the chef. This place was on par with any food place iv been to in London. Service was excellent also. We were a group of over 10 people and all the food came out at the same time. I'll be definitely coming back when am in London and also bringing my friends and family to come and enjoy the food here. Take a look at the pics. Highly recommended for those who love Pakistani style food.

    Food was really oily, the puri was different from what expected. A big piece of dough drenched in oil with no flavour. The chicken tasted like it has been made before and just heated at the moment. We also ordered chana which was heated with water so lost flavour. Only butter chicken and naan was okay. Came as recommended by many so it might be just today but I didn’t really like my experience. (There are a lot of flies).

    This restaurant has been here for ages, sticky n slippery greasy floor, same old ambience, food quality hasn't improved in 2 decades. I'd be interested to see back door kitchen hygiene and cleanliness standards!

    If you want a bit of authentic old school classics done well then this place will serve you well. They have been operating for many years now and relocated from Cannon Street Road. Their nihari is one of my favourite dishes. Might take a week to digest but worth it! Their biryanis are also excellent. Can dine comfortably with family on a relaxed environment. Decor is very old school. Would reccomend if you haven't tried already. I always get great service from Anjum and co.

    Went there for Halwa Puri breakfast all the way from Heathrow but the journey was worth it. Halwa Puri was amazing. Kulcha was great as well and lassi was very good. The prices are also very reasonable. Would highly recommend and will definitely visit again whenever I get the chance.

  • 5/5 Hussain S. 7 months ago on Google • 24 reviews
    Lives up to the reputation of the amazing halwa poori channey on the weekend. Poori were fresh, Kulchas fresh out of the oven. We had breakfast for 3 people all under 20 GBP. Limited seating and can have a queue for sitting in.

    Best halwa puri I have had so far in London. Had to wait for a while in the queue but was worth it. Halwa, puri, channay were fresh and satisfying. Prices are reasonable, and service is fast. I will definitely come back.

    Stale samosa chat. Would not recommend. Not fresh at all. They run it in microwave and give it to you. Feels nauseated after having it and Would not recommend this restaurant. Tried halwa puri as well. There are better options within same price.

    One of the best in Ilford’s Lane. Restaurant really clean and tidy. Taste fabulous and specially haleem, Paye and Daal. Customer service was good. Highly recommend friend and family

    It’s not bad. Food. It’s just that it was very unhygienic I was put off from eating. They don’t clean table chairs properly. It was dirty. Also I found something in my food which made me feel sick. Please buy antibacterial spray or something for cleaning tables we eat on. And maybe proper PPE to prevent finding things in our food.

  • 5/5 Kaif Ul M. 11 months ago on Google
    Lovely cheap food. Just bring cash with you. Their halwa puri and chole for breakfast and Nihari/paya on weekends are must try. The place is however quite small and can get chaotic so hope you don't mind a little noise.

  • 5/5 Ammara W. 11 months ago on Google
    So far, the best halwa poori, chana, haleem, and sweet Lassi in London totally reminded me of Pakistan. Friendly staff and food is reasonably priced. There can be a queue and waiting time as the restraunt has limited seating but is worth the wait. Suggest to early morning and not in the afternoon for fresh halwa and chana. Highly recommended!

    Loved this Lahore style hotel where you can enjoy tasty cheap food with lot of variety. Hosts are also very friendly. Pakistani style chaye/tea they still need to improve.

  • 3/5 Khawaja Sheraz G. 1 year ago on Google
    Lots of food displayed that looked amazing and tasty, but due to the hygiene at the place we had to give it a miss… far too many people behind the counter and tables were dirty. This place was highly recommended by a friend for the desi breakfast.

  • 5/5 Naeem A. 1 year ago on Google

  • 3/5 A K. 9 months ago on Google • 1 review
    Best place to have Halwa puri only but anything else I am not sure about it. Ordered halwa puri, lamb keema good taste but 50-60% potatoes and haleem ( barely any meat and was too runny). Naan couldn’t be any better. Lassi was good too.
