Arepa - Peruvian Street Food in Wandsworth

It is a family business restaurant in a cozy room. but the food is good with big portion. You will be served well, the staff is kind. Well, will become a nice try if you are fist time here.

The food here is excellent. Quinoa and corn really do make for an excellent combo: the arepa is really tasty. The filling are too! The avocados are of good quality, the plantain adds a nice sweetness to the dish, and the rest of the filling work very well together. Very surprised about the kale, was expecting it to be more salady but because it’s in contact with the meat it complements the flavour. The cheese used is good too - can’t tell the type. I got the beef arepa: it was juicy and flavourful. Perfectly salted. Highly recommend you give this place a visit.

One of the best cafes in Wandsworth. Veggie arepa is delicious and my 2 year old loved it too

Great place to eat,foods done to perfection staff are friendly and nice the establishment is kept clean no complaints.

Amazing food! The best burrito I’ve ever had!

I was given a warm welcome when first entering the restaurant. There are gluten free options for those who require it and ALL meats are halal; both beef and chicken. I ordered the pulled beef burrito which I strongly recommend. The ingredients used were fresh and the food came out nice and hot.

Such good arepas and plantains. Really lovely staff as well. A new (for me) local favourite. Gluten free too

Amazing food! Highly recommend for an authentic meal 😁

I’ve been to this place several times for a few years just for the quinoa arepa with chicken. It’s quite a rich meal: protein from the chicken, avocado and beans, vitamins, fibres and carbs from the different vegetables and plantain - good for the gut. Their fresh orange juice is also very good. The staff is friendly and the service is fast.

Loved the arepas - so tasty. Would recommend and can’t wait to go again. Bonus they are gluten free.

The best takeaway I’ve ever had in London!! 10/10 quality, so fresh and the best service. Cannot recommend enough, everyone must try!!

I’ve had a very nice experience eating here the arepa with beef was the most delicious! Highly recommend this place and the people working there are very kind and hospitable.

So glad my gym is around the corner because this place does what I think might be the best chicken and rice bowl I've ever had. Get it with the spicy sauce, close your eyes and, for a brief moment, you'll forget that you're in Wandsworth (thank God). The fried plantain makes this an 11/10. Try their arepa too - delicious! With really friendly service, this is the perfect spot for a to-go lunch, or sit in and enjoy the sights and sounds of the South Circular.

We ordered chicken and beef arepa, really delicious, reminded me a lot the gorditas had in Mexico City. It’s reasonably priced and close to the TLSContact centre, this is going to be a staple for my visa trips!

Perfect food every time, owners are friendly, fresh healthy food

This is some of the tastiest food I've had, the vegetarian quinoa arepa is always delicious, hits the spot every time. Thank you :)

Excellent! Lucky to have this so close to my house

Great arepas and the plantains are super yummy

Been going here almost every week. The arepas are incredible.

Nice healthy Peruvian food choices 😋 See youtube video 🎥 https://youtu.be/UjRbZOcuEIA?si=Wd3WWbuZafjZUCYk Service is excellent, freshly made and plantain is soon sweet. Halal and veggie options too.

Authentic food was absolutely delicious

This is an amazing family run spot the food was delicious nourishing authentic and healthy I can’t wait to go back I love this place !

Stumbled upon this local spot on a whim and feel so lucky I did! The employee behind the counter made me a chicken Arepa for my first time. Absolutely stellar!!

The best mexican food i have eaten in UK! The flavors are truly out of this world and the staff is friendly and very kind. I ordered the vegan burrito with avocado and it was AMAZING! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Delicious Arepa that took us back to South America! Tasting and smelling amazingly! Staff is friendly and smiley, atmosphere is great! Thank you! We will definitely be back.

I visited this place during lunchtime and my experience was just okay. I had tried the arepa once before and found it quite dry, though the filling was very good. This time, I decided to try the bowl, which is great if you're hungry because it’s a decent portion compared to other options in the menu. I also tried the burrito that my friend ordered. He thought it came with a side of chips but it actually had chips inside, which wasn’t clearly stated on the menu. The bowl itself was good but I can get a naked burrito at Tortilla chain for a cheaper price and same quality. One highlight was finding Inca Kola, which is hard to find in the UK and was a pleasant surprise. I think this place could benefit from a new menu with more specific options, especially since the name suggests a focus on arepas. Currently, they've just increased prices by sticking white stickers over the old menu. A real menu with a diverse range of arepas (not just chicken and beef) would be great. There are so many types of fillings they could offer. Additionally, some combo options, like an arepa with an Inca Kola, would allow customers to experience the flavors of Peru and South America more fully. / also if this a Peruvian restaurant maybe some traditional Peruvian dishes? There was nothing that made me think of Peru. I’ll think maybe a ceviche, tacu tacu, anticuchos. Etc This place has no competition in Wandsworth and has huge potential, especially given its location just outside the shopping mall but needs branding.

Had their arepa. It was packed with healthy, fresh and tasty ingredients. Must try !

The mans throws down a delicious arepa!! Got a veg one, and everything was mega fresh. And the orange juice was stacked.

Great Authentic Peruvian food and so tasty! A real true feel. I’ve been to Mexico and have Empanadas but these were on a different level! Looking forward to my next visit to try the Arepa! 😋 very decent price too and freshly made.

Very good food I love the rice bowls they do excellent service

Sublime amazing flavours, highly recommended

I came in after the gym looking for some healthy clean food. Then ordered the chicken rice bowl it was so good. I would definitely recommend!!

Amazing food. Very authentic and tasty. Staff members are very kind and always with a smile. Cozy restaurant, simple and nice.

Delicious, fresh and tasty arepas and rice bowls.

Karim, Andy and the team are so lovely and always go the extra mile ! Never had a bad arepa !

The food, the service, the atmosphere - all great. The food is so flavourful, it took me away to another place. The owners are very friendly and it just feels like a break away just sitting there and having an amazing bowl of food which is also good value for money.

This place is really great. I get the chicken arepa or the chicken box and they’re delicious.

Very cute, affordable and healthy street food option around in Wandsworth! A must try!

So so so good! Always go there, really nice to have a tasty option in the area :) recommend!! (Fresh orange juice is also amazing)

Fantastic home cooked food - handmade arepa pitta-type pockets absolutely rammed full of flavour and fresh ingredients - so rare to have so many different vegetables in one dish when you eat out, AND for it to be so packed full of flavour. And the fresh juices are great too. Totally recommend this place. Definitely my go-to for food out in Wandsworth.

Excellent food, beef rice bowl a must try

Food is amazing. Customer service is amazing. Best arepa I have ever had

Absolutely delicious, healthy and great value!

Amazing food! Truly a gem that everyone must try!

Simply brilliant food! You have to try it - we’re so glad w did and will be coming back for more!

so good!! will be our team go to lunch

Fantastic little place. Beautiful food, good value and served with a smile.

Fresh authentic ingredients! Would highly recommend if you’re in Wandsworth!

Delish rice bowl - great lunchtime spot!

Wow. I had the vegan arepa and it was absolutely delicious! Made with super fresh, natural ingredients, mushroom scrumptiousness and a spicy/comforting sauce. Very friendly service by Karim (thank you!). Will be back for sure!

I visited Arepa last week with my family. My daughter has recently been diagnosed with coeliac disease and I was a little concerned about cross-contamination, but when I explained this to the man cooking the food, he could not have been more helpful. He also made sure I did not feel bad about asking, by saying that it was right that I was concerned for my child. He even cleaned down the grill and changed his gloves before making her food. He was so kind and understanding - I really appreciated it. We had a mixture of (gluten free) arepas and rice bowls, which were all really tasty. The food is freshly made with interesting ingredients and available to take out or eat in (we ate in). The place itself is lovely and a bit different. It's also just outside the Southside Shopping Centre, so really easy to get to and much better than a lot of the usual chains that you get. I highly recommend this place - especially for people with coeliac disease, but for everyone really. Thank you Arepa!

Amazing food and amazing service Karim really put his heart and soul into my mixed burrito 100% coming back next week

I am fairly regular at this place and one of the best Peruvian food in the area. If you are ever in the area, pay a visit to this lovely family run place, where you won’t be disappointed at all. I love their Chicken Arepa!

We came in for a quick lunch and ended up having a great conversation with Karim. What a Gem, the food was healthy and cooked with care and consideration. When in the area please try them out.

top guys, top food, Arepa is the best discovery for the last year!

Delicious, healthy & super friendly team.. I eat here all the time highly recommend!

It was so sooo good! The arepa was fresh, ingredients were complimenting each other and the beef was soft and juicy. I tried arepa from a popular restaurant in London before as well, but this is so many times more tasty! Highly recommended!

Great addition for different cuisine street food choices🤙 Tried the beef Arepa, but tasting the kale, avocado, banana, can imagine the vegetarian Arepa will be soo good too..! Had many Peruvian in restaurants, and the taste from this doesn’t disappoint and great comfort food in a cold weather. Good job!

We had two delicious quinoa chicken Arepas! The fried banana was so tasty! Good service and very close to Wandsworth shopping centre.

Delicious food, great people. My go-to for a healthy, filling meal after the gym.

Best arepas in the game, the vibes in the restaurant are immaculate,amazing playlist and the people are so lovely. ADDICTED, will travel 2 hours just for this.

Amazing food and incredibly welcoming atmosphere. 10/10!

I experienced today for the first time, we in South America have different types of arepas, Quinoa is one of them, I choose Vegan one which came with Vegan Cheese, Black Bean Salad, Avocado and Yellow Fried Plantain, I most admit, It was delicious, I ordered take away, lovely surprise at home, fresh ingredients, and the selection of fillings are there for everyone! I talked with the staff!, the atmosphere was homely, Lovely Friendly People! I will be back! Gracias

Food is great and very delicious. Loved eating here but they should post their opening hours. I travelled 40 mins to come and eat there however i arrived 10 mins after they closed due to the opening times not advertised..

Food 10/10. Service 10/10. Would totally recommend it to anyone!

Excellent food. Worth trying !

Flipping delicious!! I had the spicy chicken arepa with plantain and it was so yummy and nourishing.

Amazing arepa! You should try this!

We visited couple of days back, the food was exceptional! Very authentic and homely, it’s a must visit :) The owners were friendly and nice!

My sister and I are really enjoyed the food here! The owners were kind and suggested the chicken arepas which was absolutely delicious. A wonderful sweet and savory medley of flavors. The freshly squeezed orange juice was really good.

First time trying and honestly I didn’t wasn’t impressed good filling but I think for the price wasn’t worth it Good service The place is ok but is to boxy and it make it look untidy Do I recommend well looks like they doing well so I will leave as neutral Do I will return? I am afraid I won’t

Exquisite flavours ❤️ lovely neighbourhood gem! We will be back!

Absolutely Delicious. Amazing customer service. Definitely will come back again

My favourite arepa place in London. I order the vegetarian quinoa one every time - extra cheesy and extra spicy. Absolutely DIVINE!!!! Can't recommend enough, so delicious and very quality ingredients used. Super friendly staff too.

My body thanks me for eating the vegan/vegetarian rice bowl. Although, I order this everytime I come in, I am far from being bored of it. It's so good! The chef always adds a little extra ingredient of care (you can telll). Hospitality (tick). Practice some Spanish with the staff (tick). Access to fresh orange juice in a glass bottle (tick). Eat indoors or take away (tick). Of course there is so much more they offer. Had my favorite breakfast this morning (yes it was a rice bowl). I thank God for making this part of my provisions. Hope you are blessed too (ameen).

Wow what an amazing spot- delicious, affordable and healthy. The owners/staff were so sweet with us and our kids. Can’t recommend it enough. Thank you!

The beef arepas are marvellous! And the service very nice. Second time here and will definitely come back!

Buena gastronomía, servicio amable y rápido.

Best arepa ive had in my life!! The food is delicious and fresh !!

Everything we ordered was delicious and the service was superb. Friendly staff. We loved the burrito, arepa and falafel salad. Can’t fault anything about this place.

Probably the best arepas in town. Highly recommended!

Amazing food!! So good, very fresh and healthy ingredients. Good portions and the flavors are incredible. Small place where you can sit inside and outside in the sun if you like. Owner is also very friendly. I would definitely highly recommend to eat here.

Peruvian fillings in an arepa - killer combo. This place is great, well worth the 10-15 cooking time

Amazing food very delicious, if you looking for something new and delicious, try the quinoa arepa especial the beef you won’t regret it. It’s healthy and delicious. 😋🤤

First time eating Peruvian. Tried to vegan Arepa and the burrito and was amazed by the delicious flavours. It’s a hidden gem and a must try. The lady and the fella were very lovely too. Can’t wait to go back again!

The tastiest home-made arepas! A great place to visit with tasty food, friendly staff, and affordable pricing.

Love their arepas, particularly the beef one.

So hearty and tasty! The arepa is crispy and fluffy and all the fillings are fresh :)

So yummy. Nothing else like this in the area. Lovely people who work there who really care.
