Cafe Rosa in Barnet

We had a nice and delicious breakfast this morning with my husband We both had full English breakfast and it was absolutely amazing Staff very kind We would definitely go back. The cakes looked delicious, so we would like to try next time

worst place I have ever been in a long time. the food was revolting I found a hair in it, coffees were absolute rubbish, the atmosphere of the place was horrible foreign smokers stare at you. the couple that runs the place dealt with the hair situation very badly and his wife threatened me. The young male waiter, did not speak English well enough whilst eating I was given dirty looks and he started smoking inside, I kindly asked him to go outside as there were children inside but he just gave me a funny look and spoke in some foreign language. I found out that the manager was called Hasbi and if you do go to the cafe make sure to avoid him as he was very rude and his manner of handling things as a manager is absolutely terrible. There lucky that I'm not taking any action to the police, but instead advising the public to avoid this place.

Fancied a full English breakfast in my area so decided to choose this cafe as it looked busy. I ordered a full English breakfast but became a bit dubious when I couldn’t see a kitchen and lots of food were going in and out of the microwave. I think my bacon and the sausages were heated up on a griddle. The breakfast was a big let down. I would suggest taking hot food off the menu if you have to rely on a microwave and stick to sandwiches.

It's all in the title! It offers proper face to face service something very hard to find in Finchley, cosy place with great tasting food & cakes. Coffee real nice too!

There are not many cafes in Finchley Central, let alone independent family owned ones. For this reason alone it is a good choice if you want to support small local businesses. It is not very trendy, but you are made welcome. I have been here a few times for coffee and cakes. The selection of cakes and gateaux is limited but what I've tried has always ranged from good to excellent. And the coffees have also been good, be it cappuccinos, lattes or Americanos. Recently we had a light lunch there. We both opted for one of the vegetarian paninis: mozzarella, sundried tomato and pesto. They offered to heat it, and it was very tasty and flavoursome. It was huge, though! One would have been enough for the two of us, then we could have had a cake afterwards. They also served us a small side salad with it. Lovely lunch. They also do some cooked dishes. The couple that run the place are absolutely charming, as are their family members that help out.

El café podría mejorar, en especial el café espresso. Las infusiones que tienen son buenas y variadas.

Nice coffee and cakes with options for lunch/snacks. Relaxed atmosphere where it is easy to sit over coffee and chat or read etc without hassle. Nice to have a local cafe that is not just part of a chain.

Visitado por el desayuno, y no estaba contento con la calidad del servicio o la comida. Llegamos a las 11 y nos sirven con bastante rapidez, y pedimos cafés, batidos y desayunos. El café y batidos llegaba rápidamente a ser justos, y estaban bastante bien. Sin embargo, no llegan nuestros desayunos hasta al menos media hora más tarde, momento en el que todos habíamos terminado nuestro café etc. La comida era de mala calidad, con el desayuno inglés completo se cocinan en hornos de microondas detrás del mostrador la orden (no el típico desayuno frito que se suele sentir en un café), así que todo probado/nos sentimos bastante blandos; el pan era el más barato, más finas de pan en la tierra! ); y mi pareja y ambos no sensación de estómagos demasiado justo ahora (que es lamentable ya que no gusta el aspecto de los pasteles). Recomendaría evitar, al menos para el desayuno.

When it comes to customer service, quality and value, this is the place to visit when you are in Finchley Central. Whenever I go here for a meal, I have always ordered myself a jacket potato with curry without cheese (some people have it with cheese but that does go down with me). They prepare this meal to perfection to make sure that I get a meal that is filling and satisfying. The taste of the curry has certainly got that "YUMMY" feeling inside your stomach as all the ingredients are fresh and homemade. There are no frozen items being used, from what I can see and they have the very best on offer when it comes to drinks. I was happy to see that this cafe is kiddie friendly, having toys for them to play with whilst the parents sit back and enjoy a cup of tea (my fav) or coffee for my partner. All three of my children have been welcomed to this cafe with open arms with my middle son, who has ADHD, welcomed to help out as he believes he works there (within reason, of course, he just takes our cups to them believing he supplies a service to us). I will have to add that their cakes are super yummy!!! This is another location that I would highly recommend to every person who visits Finchley Central.

Went here for lunch which was mediocre, however when paying the bill as it was different from the price on the menu. I queried it and was told the charge was for salad. We had not ordered salad (it was probably termed as garnish anywhere else) and the waitress said there were two options, one with, one without. Advised we were not asked which one we wanted but I had pointed to the option without and were told that we should have queried the salad on the plate when it arrived! Go here if you want to be charged for extras you haven't ordered and then no customer service to put it right.

Lovely place to grab a coffee or a light meal Staff friendly Clean toilet Nice atmosphere Facilities to grab a coffee and watch the work go by

The food is seriously good and delivery service is quick. can only recommend

The customer service is excellent. The portions of food are good especially for the cheap prices. We got Greek Burek with feta cheese, it was good. The mozzarella sticks were amazing. I had falafel salad, the salad was delicious but their falafel is dry.

While staying in North London for 5 days I decided to call into CAFE ROSA late afternoon on Wednesday 27/07/16. The female staff were most welcoming and polite, placed my order at the counter & service was fast with excellent portion size meal + very tasty, followed by one Cappuccino with a few cakes. Relaxed atmosphere with other diners & seating arrangements outside at front of Rosa for smokers. A most welcoming friendly place & highly recommend with very reasonable prices especially only paying GBP 11.85 for the above order.

A friendly little coffee shop with excellent coffee and a wide range of food and drink. The staff are welcoming and you can sit in the window and watch the world go by. Great place to meet friends for a catch up or grab a tasty lunch.

Nice place for cake and tea. Spacious place, menu quite interesting. We just had hot drinks and cake. Would like to try food menu another time.

Cercavo un posto tranquilo per mangiare in questa zona di Barnet, era giorno di calcio a Londra e tutti gli altri posti erano troppo pieno. Questo posto è tranquilo, buon cibo, ottimo rapporto quaità prezzo. Si può mangiare e poi rimanere nel caffè utilizzando il wifi. Personale gentilissimo. Vi consiglio di provare falafel con Mozzarella Sticks and Cranberry Juice.

This place is a real gem Lovely food friendly staff great food choice and even better vibe My favourite place for an evening coffee or breakfast Well worth a visit

Delicious coffee, scrummy cakes, kind staff and lovely ambience. Welcome find in rather dull high street. Highly recommended!

I order a lot from Cafe Rosa - it's nice to have somewhere local to get some lunch or breakfast from. The desserts are great, but recently I ordered for 2:30pm (I work nights) and it was delivered at 8am!

Often pop in here after an evening stroll for a latte and apple crumble/ice cream.Why ?- Because I'm worth it !The owners have done an excellent job to create a family friendly place, complete with a play area for the little children.However, on entering and leaving, these same little children often have to run the gauntlet of smoke from swarthy men who occupy the outside tables in close proximity.Please, lovely owners, think of the little children (and grownups), stop pandering to the smokers and go the logical step further by banning this dying & unhealthy habit once and for all from your lovely shop.It stops people from sitting outside and deters them from going inside unless they dare to brave the 'cloud of death'.You know it makes sense.

A lovely local cafe. I come here often for coffee, smoothies, cakes, sandwiches, salads etc. with my kids. They have toys and books and high chairs, so very child-friendly, but also a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere for adults. Friendly staff, delicious coffee and prices are very reasonable. Highly recommended

This was the WORST Meal. I've ever had from this site. As can be seen I used to rate this place. But now the quality is so bad. I have been forced to leave a bad review . I order a jacket potato with tuna and cheese X2. What came was a potato in a container so small there was no room for topping. Less than a teaspoon of cheese and tuna. But I would say at least a whole can of sweetcorn. I tryed to eat mine. My husband just put his in the bin. And as for the desserts. The apple strudel was still frozen inside. And the chocolate fudge cake was burnt. I will never use them again. And they should be ASHAMED to call this food.

Soup was Heinz. baguette was mediocre. but the ice cream smoothie was banging. probably a bit pricey but yaknow

they ran out of tuna and cheese so i just received sweet corn in the jacket. didn't even eat it. just went in the bin

Simply amazing quality and delivery time! Will definitely order from here again!

I have visited many times, popping in for 2 reasons:Because I fancy a coffee and a sit down and to support a great local business. You can see the staff work hard and care about the place. Always friendly - if you like cakes, this is the place for you. I love them and this is my treat. I like just having a nice coffee and a bit of cake in a nice friendly place. Always the same staff - always friendly and always good service. They have their own reward card and I shall continue to visit and fill mine up with stamps for a free brew.

Sitting right now here., Comming to this place even before recent owner. I like new face of it, interier refub. made a much comfortable place., Quick servise, no chain coffee and learned smile, but rather genuine one., Also owner's approach to any issue or discussion is professional and you feel they are here for you not the other way round., My rating is 5 big stars., Issuing one photo only as I dont want to dusturb other guests.
