    Magic Falafel serves up the freshest, tastiest wraps in London. It’s so good, I’m a regular. The team who work here are very welcoming too.

    One of the best in London , add-ons on falafel make it more tatsy . Staff are nice especially Krishna and Romica Prices are little bit high , but worth a try of course.

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting Magic Falafel in Camden Market and I must say, it was a delightful experience! The first thing that caught my attention was their ingenious NFC review card placed right next to the till – what a great way to encourage feedback! I ordered the Magic Box, and it was absolutely scrumptious! Every bite was a perfect blend of flavors 🙌🏻 and it's clear why they call it 'magic’. It's not just the food that makes Magic Falafel special; it's also the people. The counter staff were exceptionally polite and maintained a clean and welcoming environment, adding to the overall fantastic experience. Congratulations to Magic Falafel for creating such a wonderful spot in Camden Market. It's not just a meal; it's an experience that I would recommend to everyone. Can't wait to return!

    Loved the falafel, tasted fresh and super tasty. Nice little seating area too. Staff are friendly and we're happy to throw in a few freebies on the side. Kids loved the falafel! Good portion size and very reasonably priced. Recommend if you're looking for something healthy that isn't deep fried with lots of batter which seems to be a common around market area.

    The falafel pita was good, not necessarily something I’ll go back to, but good. The waiting time to receive our order however was too long, considering many people ordered the same thing after us and have received their orders significantly earlier. It was slightly overpriced (10 pounds for a wrap) so seems a bit more commercial than traditional.

    Loved every single element of my experience here! From the falafels, you the juices, and of course, to the chocolate covered strawberries... it was all divine! Highly recommend you pay them a visit!! ❤️

    Hands down the best falafel in town! I really missed a good falafel sandwich like the one I get back at home. This place definitely did not disappoint us! We came back for seconds! The employees were absolutely friendly and helpful we had an impeccable experience in both food and customer service. Shoutout the the gentlemen making the falafel 👍🏽

    I ordered the magix box which consisted of a selection of different salads served with a homemade hummus on the side topped with chickpeas and olive oil. The spicy sauce on the side was a nice addition and the tahini combined with the falafel gave just about the right taste. Overall, a great dish and worth trying again!

  • 4/5 Aikta M. 3 years ago on Google
    Very tasty. We ordered 2 pittas and a side of fries. I would have given 5 stars if the person serving us had mentioned to make it a meal ( you basically get a drink free if you buy one side, one pitta). The meal deal is £11. Would go back again as food was very nice!

    Lovely staff, beautiful presentation, the falafel is the best ever. Moist inside and crispy outside, fresh and flavourful. The hummus was slightly too rich and indeed as advertised very creamy lol, creamy lovers would like it! Come to Camden market myself for a walk and this is a perfect place for a break. Recommend!

    I brought my wife to Magic Falafel and it was probably the best veggie food we've ever had. If you're in Camden you absolutely have to try it. We tried 4-5 other places and this one was by far the best. Beats most places serving meat.

    When they say "magic" they're not joking. I ordered the magic bowl and was overwhelmed by the freshness and depth of flavors! The falafel is crispy yet moist on the inside served with delicious salad and some of the best tahini sauce I've ever had. Plus, the hummus was INCREDIBLY creamy. I'll find it hard to eat anywhere else whenever I'm in Camden market!

    Awesome falafel with fresh salad and free pickles and sauces. Lovely crew as well. Go there, enjoy! If you're really hungry go for the magic box. I loved it and was so full and happy afterwards.

    The falafel salad Krishna served was truly delicious and nutritious. Good news for those with dietary restrictions - vegan and gluten-free options are available. Thank you for the lovely lunch, and I'm looking forward to visiting again soon! :-)

    Love this place so so much… Best flavor, size and prize relation of all Candem Market food options by far. And owner is super nice dude :) I ordered Pita Falafel + sweet potatoes side (ton of them) + drink for just £14. I’ll keep coming back for sure.

    If you are vegan or vegetarian it's must place for you guys to have a delicious pitta falafel wrap and the other items as well. At an affordable price for this item for the stomach full wrap, with a good amount of stuffing in it. I have eaten falafel in different places around London. This one over here was delicious and yummy. The service is good as well.

  • 4/5 C 5 months ago on Google • 5 reviews
    Great and fully vegan. Got to try some falafel first for free, then we decided to buy a full dish each as it was so tasty! Delicious and good portion sizes with quick service. Two male staff members were super friendly and very accommodating. Price a little high but expected for the area. Would definitely go again!

  • 5/5 Bridget F. 2 months ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    Sooo tasty and very friendly people here fun loud music gets you in a good mood too. The smell is also so fragrant with all the herbs and spices cooking and thankfully the chilli is spicy!!! Big filling potions, lovely soft pita 🥙 Recommend if you love felafels!

  • 5/5 Kyle B. 1 year ago on Google
    I don’t know what I enjoyed more. The great food, or the top blokes serving us yesterday. Really high energy and friendly buzz about the place, backed up by great food! Can’t wait to visit again 💙👌🏻

  • 5/5 Anya M. 2 years ago on Google
    A solid 9/10 falafel pitta - the most generous falafel pitta I've ever had! Each bite bursting with falvours, stuffed with so many different sides!

  • 5/5 Harry S. 2 years ago on Google
    I love this place. The falafel is crispy with fresh mixed salad and a variety of sauce and hummus.

  • 5/5 Amro D. 2 years ago on Google
    Best falafel I’ve had in London. Fresh, tasty and crunchy. The spicy tahini sauce gives it a nice heat kick 👌🏻

  • 1/5 Michelle M. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely filthy food. All chips were completely cold and soggy. Pittas were thrown together with no care at all. Not fit for a dog. I've just done £40 to fill up my bin! Don't waste your money!!!!

  • 4/5 sagar s. 2 years ago on Google
    Delicious freshly prepared falafel with good portion of salads in a pita pocket 👌

  • 5/5 Boaz 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing fresh made falafel every day! Incredible location and wonderful atmosphere. Highly skilled and friendly service. Big portions for normal prices. Both our pita falafel had so many falafel inside, it’s impossible to have a bite without!! Highly recommended!!

  • 5/5 Mark G. 5 months ago on Google
    Best falafel I’ve ever had. Same with the humus. Definitely recommend if you’re at Camden market and have a hankering for some bomb falafel!

  • 5/5 Facundo Perez L. 2 years ago on Google

    Tried their Magic Juice stall next door and loved the freshness of the smoothies. Great value for money.

  • 1/5 Fernando Gutiérrez U. 2 years ago on Google
    The reason why I give one star only, is because the cashier guy was rude to a woman: This woman approached the place and tried to grab a piece of bread? on a tray with the sign: "for customers only". The cashier guy immediately told her, in the rudest way, that she cannot grab food from the tray as she is not a customer, followed by "don't you know how to read? look at the sign". She responded that she was going to buy product, but not after he treated her like that, to what he responded "go away, we don't need you, we have other 100 customers". I am unaware if this woman has done it before, or if there is a reason why the cashier considered she deserved to be treated that way. I can tell you that no one, under no circumstances should be treated that way. It was humiliating. I am also unsure if there was any racism involved, as this woman was wearing a muslim veil and seemed to have a middle eastern accent, while the attendants happily offer free falafel to other (white) women passing by, without requiring them to buy anything first. I don't know if this guy owns the place, but if not, I strongly advise the owners to hire someone else. I don't know the name of the rude cashier, but it happened on 13/02/22 at 1:30ish pm, and in our conversation he mentioned he is Indian. The food was average, perhaps 3 stars. BTW, the location in maps is wrong, although the pictures and my card invoice confirm that Magic Falafel is the place.

  • 5/5 Teri A. 2 years ago on Google
    Really good falafels. The filling in pita is so generous. I had the falafel pita with extra aubergine topping. The crispy potato fries as topping are so nice and gave that extra bit crunch. All the staff was super friendly and kind on a busy Sunday weekend. Definitely going to keep coming back for more.

    Magic Falafel has redefined culinary bliss. Their falafel wrap (unquestionably the best I've ever savored) combines an explosion of flavors and textures into a euphoric masterpiece. Each bite transports you to a world where taste buds rejoice, celebrating the sheer magnificence of this gastronomic marvel. Magic Falafel is simply astounding and I cannot stop thinking about my experience! If that falphal wrap was a woman, I would give her absolutely anything.

    My 2nd time eating from this place after 2 weeks as I had to get my watch strap changed at TickTock Camden. But Hemanshu, the manager of Magic Falafel is one of the kindest and most genuine people I know and he really loves what he is doing. It was empty at 5:40pm and I was able to have a great conversation with him. He even offered me 2 extra Falafels (1 for sampe when I asked him and at the last 2 bites of my Falafel Wrap) for free 🥺. I also noticed that he added more of the potato fries in this Wrap compared to his colleague last time (when it was very busy) and that made the whole Wrap just come together beautifully. I opted out the Mango Curry as it almost felt like it had some bitterness to it, asked for Extra Spicy (which had an amazing Indian kick to it) but the Tahini was so damn good and smooth. I can drink that stuff! I'll be back if I'm in Camden again and have a nice chat with Hemanshu again :) I can't recommend this place enough 💯💯💯

    Super fresh falafel! Great service from the team, an easy meal to grab (Falafel pita) and walk around the market with. They make it all to order so completely customizable to your preferences. Will definitely come back for the Magic Box. Love that it’s fully vegan.

  • 5/5 Claire B. 8 months ago on Google
    Randomly chose this place for lunch and wow..!! The falafel pita was one of the best I have tasted. Bursting with flavour and full of veggies and hummus, spice level perfect. I've had many pitas where the contents runs dry as you get through to the bottom of the bread. Not here, the whole things was dripping with deliciousness all the way to the end.

  • 5/5 lino d. 1 year ago on Google
    Totally brilliant falafel, served by really nice people. Best falafels in London !! Just soo yummy. If you’ve never eaten one, just ask they will let you try one as you pass by…
