Del'Aziz - Swiss Cottage in Camden

Coffee here is nice and reasonably priced. The staff always seem like they’re forced to work here. The male staff member in particular is very rude. Never speaks to or acknowledges the customers.

There is even a soft play area and outdoor playground in the leisure centre but I don’t know the terms of use, we didn’t access those facilities. The café, of course, is open to the general public.

Food good but staff on Mogadon service slow and avoidant maybe it’s being a reaction to being next to a gym . It’s a shame as the grub is very good. Ok

The staff were very friendly and lovely atmosphere.

The manager is rude to you and rude to her staff. The latter makes me feel very uncomfortable. Whether he is doing a good job or not belittling a person is not the right thing to do. The service is just beyond poor

He leído algunas críticas mixtas, pero el día que llegamos, la comida y el servicio no pueden fallar. Esto está relacionado con el Swiss Leisure Leisure Centre y Library, un ambiente relajado, fiestas de cumpleaños para niños, etc. pero las ensaladas y las verduras fritas eran deliciosas. Buena selección de tartas y pasteles caseros.

Well situated in the Swiss Cottage Sports centre & skids soft play so gets a fairly captive audience. I do quite like this place for a quick snack and coffee, however the atmosphere is a little charmless (although to be fair, some of the staff are great). On the other hand portions are massive, even if quality can be average (aside of chips... which are pretty good). Would be so nice if the place had a face lift and strengthened its overall quality... which would entice us more. But, as said... mot short of a captive audience.

He estado 3 veces en este lugar 4 y puedo decir que las mesas de madera y las sillas que recuerda algo del medio oriente. El personal era muy agradable y pozitive. la señorita en la que ella era absolutamente precioso hasta me ayudó con todo y me sugirió que comer. Tuve mis hijos y siempre lo hacen un desastre la señora pedí se encargó de todo. Me sentí muy caliente. u debería tratar de contratar más gente como eso y por favor agregue carne en el menú.

Came here for brunch. Chose the breakfast option of eggs on toast. Quite noisy and service slow. Tables weren’t that clean. Food was ok but a bit on the expensive side for an average breakfast. Just came away feeling it should have been better.

Good food. Main thing is lots of space for kids to move around. Also lots of buggy space. It's targeted towards parents and kids with kid friendly food and also food for adults.

I dine out a lot and travel all over the world, but this has to be one of the worst restaurants I have experienced. Very busy. No staff acknowledgement. Booked a table and called before hand to comfirm but was rudely told there was no booking and the staff did not even care! Managed to find a table, dirty amongst several others. Lot of staff who seemed to all be rude behind the counter or eating and having breaks! Went to order. Totally rude lady, very abrupt. I asked for still water and had the toast with poached eggs. Awful. Cold, hard toasted dry bread. Despite asking for eggs well done, it was runny. Food dumped on table with no cutlery and had to go get it ourselves. Also told to go and get my water out of the fridge. I could have taken 10 bottles, the staff would not have cared. Save your money and don't go! Yes, they have a huge selection on the menu and the pastries look nice but that's it.

I was very disappointed by the food at Del’Aziz. After deliberating for some time over whether to spend a fair amount of money on breakfast, I decided to treat myself to poached eggs and bacon. The cost £6.95. The eggs were stone cold as was the bacon. The eggs were tasteless. The sourdough that was not sourdough, was wet and soggy. The whole experience overall was dissatisfying. I would not recommend this cafe as a place to come to if you want food.

We recently held our son’s 4th Birthday party at this venue and have to say it was an excellent all around experience. I pre-booked through Magda the manager (very helpful)who suggested food for both kids and adults as well as decorations and additional party optional extras for the children (face painters etc). We were given our own spacious area in the restaurant and had our own decorations which they happily helped us set up early dedicating members of their team - headed up by a very lovely Roshni - on the day to make sure the event went smoothly. Food and drinks came out promptly as our guests arrived and the quality was good. At the end the children and most importantly our 4 year old headed over to the soft play in the leisure centre happy and smiling and we had a pretty stress-free experience, no mean feat for a party. We would definitely recommend Dell Aziz to other parents looking for a good family venue and minimal fuss.

Went for a cake and drink. All looked great but Was shocked at the prices. Poor service didn’t help matters. This is a cafe in a municipal swimming pool, made me yearn for the days of a cup of Bovril in a polystyrene cup and a wagon wheel.

Fuimos al centro de ocio para una noche corporativa de escalada en roca y decidimos reservar la cena en el café. Roshni no podía hacer lo suficiente para nosotros, había 18 de nosotros, nuestra reserva era de 7 de la tarde, la cocina cierra a las 7. 30 Y ella rápidamente vinieron, tomó nuestras órdenes trajo a nuestras bebidas, y no era mucho antes de la comida, que fue muy bien recibido, muy bien presentada y todo el mundo parecía disfrutar de sus comidas. Sin duda, volveremos.

Tuvimos una gran fiesta en el centro de la comunidad (con un disco de niños) y la comida del Aziz siempre para los niños pequeños.

under extreme & exceptional circumstances (the emergency evacuation of 4 tower blocks) Del Aziz has been a sanctuary of love,support,and delicious nutritious food.the hard core team of Nediy,Roshni & Said have been open for drinks,snacks & food 24 hours a day for 6 days now.They have all worked like heroes,even slept there to get the food ready.thank you all so much for being so friendly,sympatico & charming ,all day & all night.everything was provided free & with compassion,compliments to the chef!Many thanks & massive respect .~

Con solo media hora de la comida, decidí comer como t el café más cercano que pude encontrar. Este lugar parecía agradable. . Esa es la positiva. Después de la camarera tuvo que continuamente vienen a mi mesa y me pregunta para decirle lo que había pedido (un simple plato de patatas fritas), me dejaron esperando 20 minutos y no había comida se materializaron. Sólo cuando fui al mostrador que me ofrecieron las patatas fritas en una bolsa de papel para llevar (había oído hablar y el personal de cocina que había olvidado). No podía tomar la comida en mi labor con hambre.

Aquí el café es bueno, pero la experiencia es deprimente, y los pasteles y galletas minúsculas caras en 3 libras.

En este lugar parece que están ansiosos de tener malos comentarios así cada oppurnity aparentemente es bueno para ellos ser grosero e irrespetuoso, especialmente el chico italiano. Sinceramente no sé lo que es su problema. Yo soy Italiana y puedo confirmar que no es una lengua o cultura, que es la barrera realmente grosero y falta de cualquier tipo de empatía y básico servicio al cliente. Mi amigo tenía una experiencia terrible con él también. Pedí un agua caliente y jengibre y él quería cobrar 2. 50 libras es 1. cuando normalmente 95 (todavía me pareció caro para una taza, destacaría de agua caliente pero bueno. . . Y luego después de 10 minutos yo tratando de explicar el menù y él la lista de precios estuvo de acuerdo. Ya que tienes que pagar en efectivo, de lo contrario no se te cobra una tarifa ridículo (difícil de creer pero cierto) sólo tenía 1. 85 en efectivo, así que le dije que se efectúa el 0. 10p como pronto ellos desde mi bolsa en el armario más tarde y me fui a sentar en mi mesa. Después de unos pocos segundo. él vino a mi mesa con una actitud y dejó la cuenta en la mesa diciendo que tengo que pagar y que es sólo para este tiempo de lo contrario todo el mundo le causa hacer lo mismo, pero de una manera muy grosera. Es una pena que causa encanta venir a este lugar después de mi clase de gimnasia. Es tan malo, la gente viene a este lugar para pasar un rato relajante pero todo está arruinado por inhumanos de los camareros para atender al cliente.

Por dónde empezar, no es la primera vez que utilizamos el restaurante ya que es muy práctico, porque de centro deportivo, pero absolutamente personal grosero muy poco profesional, como lo son todos los que luchan contra la depresión o medicado. Menú comida horrible de cocina todo parece tan desordenado que fecha no sé cómo escapar. Café con leche quemada, etc., ya que estoy escribiendo esto el camarero es preguntar a la señora en la mesa para comer cuando ella respuestas estoy estoy esperando la respuesta de fry que qué estás comiendo en el tono más borde nunca. Por favor EVITA ESTE LUGAR

We just had my son's birthday party here. Everything was brilliantly organised. I had a a few conversations with the manager leading to the party. On the day, all was arranged perfectly and throughout the lunch Roshni was fabulous at serving everyone - both children at adults. She really had everything ready for us and we were able to simply enjoy the party.

For the third time I have celebrated daughter's birthday in Del Aziz and will recommend this place with all my heart. The service is fabulous and you'd be lucky to have amazing Roshni taking care of your party - then you can be certain that everything will be tiptop. Managers and waiters are so thoughtful, caring, attentive. We first came to this place 6 years ago after the pool, for its tasty smoothies and lunch. Since then, we are frequent customers.

Just had a juicy chicken burger. Yummy!!! And a nice cuppa tea. Lovely Staff and Excellent customer service. Must Visit. Was very hungry. It filled me. Nice portion of chips. Hot food served within 8 mins. Although the restaurant is busy. Big Thanks to the Lovely manager who looks after her customers.

Really expensive and tasteless food , good for coffee , tea and that's all , if u would like to have a cheap lunch and nice staff I could recommended a coffee place on second floor in library, some staff r rude and some staff is lovely, the nicest one r the girls who is doing coffee and tea and 2 young waitress r lovely too ,

The venue offers ample space with plenty of seating in a cozy atmosphere with an unusual view of a semi-olympic swimming pool (four storey height space). Excellent stop-over after the work out at the local leisure center (Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre). Good for freshly squeezed juices, brunches, and hangouts. The staff would not bother you here if you would like to spend time doing your reading, work etc. Quite a bit of people traffic outside due to the sports centre but here you can truly experience the pulse of the local sporting community. Good place for hang out especially for families or for mothers who want to have a quick coffee where they can let their kids roam free in the place. Safe neighbourhood with lots of sports activities nearby indoors and outdoors.

レジャーセンターと図書館に併設されてるカフェ。なので、よく小さい子供の誕生日パーティなどが行われてたり、スイミングクラス後のママさんの集まりに利用されていたりと地元の人に愛されているカフェです。大きなソファーがあったり、全体にゆったりとテーブル配置がされていて、本を読んだり、友達との待ち合わせに使ったりしています。

Really lovely cafe conveniently located next to the leisure centre, came here for our daughters birthday party and really felt at home, the staff were really attentive and supportive especially Roshni who went above and beyond the call of duty and attended to our every need,chef Said made lovely food and didn't make us feel like any thing was a worry or problem and Nelida was wonderful she prepared all the decorations and organised every thing, highly recommend this cafe and have been coming back here ever since.

Location is great, atmosphere is very beautiful and most waiters and managers put on a real effort; some, their very best. It could be better: food options, customer satisfaction, business sense... Somethings will be missing despite being on the menu, the limited menu options will be cut even shorter to make you order a certain kind of food for dinner, staff will get an unpleasant and unintelligent public scolding of a higher up once in a while, you won't go there because of a dish you really want to taste again and prices are not good at all. Also, for a great while, in the pick of the school season (when the place is thriving with people), they closed for remodeling the kitchen; nothing changed in the beautiful restaurant ambiance. They opened when the schools were in recess; when the place is practically empty. Assumption: couldn't find the contractors and architects to work all their aspiring changes in a more convenient time for the business; but at least the kitchen is new, bigger and improved, food will be better and more options will show up... Noooooo! Couldn't be farther from what happened. That was exactly when they seem to have narrowed the options.

I come here regularly as the only convenient cafe near the leisure centre. Snail-paced service. Be prepared to wait 45 minutes for a hot meal. Cakes are excellent but the prices are extortionate: £15 for two slices of cake and a juice recently. On top of this, staff are very very rude, always seeming grumpy, slow and depressed. They do not smile, walked away from me in the middle of my sentence and when I asked if I had left my wallet at the counter answered : "I don't know" and walked away again. Two different people did this and I should point out that this was not at a busy time. From now I will be avoiding whenever I can as this is not a one-off experience and I've had enough.

We went in for breakfast, found it a bit odd as there was no one to say please sit and your be served. A girl gave us the menu and said sit down and your be served through the staff were at the counter chatting no one came over in the end i went to them she said i will be over ok. she did come over she took our order the scrambled eggs were good, but the service needs improve.

Friendly and helpful staff helped to organize great Birthday Party for my 12 years old son, thank you for this day. Great service!

Was going to have a piece of cake, but at £5+ for an average piece, clearly they don't mind ripping their customers off! They count on their location to draw customers (next to community centre of all places!). We would spend as little money as possible in that place (and only if we have no other options). Food nothing special and below average.

This is somewhere to avoid, overpriced, zero atmosphere and always looks like it is on the verge of closure (which would probably be the case if it wasn't the only cafe option near the swimming pool. The manager was rude and clearly not interested in looking after customers. The staff all look thoroughly depressed and the place is joyless!

Just ask for Roshni to serve you. She more than compensates for any gaps in food quality.Stick to simple food.

I have been here few time and I always found the male cashier (south asian, looking 40 guy) quiet mean. Once I came there and didn't know they were closing (it was about 5pm) and I asked if I can get something and he was only "no, you can't get this" or "no, you can't get that" instead of saying "sorry we are closed". How nice is that?Last time I came there cause I was waiting for my friend after swimming lesson. I went to the bar and ordered the salad, wanted to wait it there. He asked someone to prepare it, I was surprised to get it in the take away box, not asking me if I want to eat it in or take away. I took it, sat at the nearest table to the door and started eating. Then he came to me and started loudly speaing "You cannot eat take away food here" ... so I told him I was not given an option, noone asked me and he said "I am sure I asked you" ... if he asked me I would tell him I want to eat it in. Then he told me to leave the restaurant ... I was shocked, not only looking stupid infront of other people. Seems like they enjoy embarrassing people in this place. I am not going to this palce EVER AGAIN.

Good place for a quick morning breakfast - hot food is back now that they have fixed the kitchen and the sandwiches are very tasty. Good poolside view as well

Went here for a quick supper before going to Hampstead Theatre. The food was shockingly bad. Starter portions of Lamb Boreck were greasy and nasty and baba ganoush was mass produced and synthetic - and that plus a glass of really not very nice wine cost £20. My friend had a spaghetti which had sauce out of a jar plus the kind of horrible faux Parmesan that looks and tastes like sand. There is really no excuse for food this bad. AVOID.

We had about 25 children plus adults for a 5th birthday party. When we arrived (ten minutes late), the table was ready, service was great and it was lovely and peaceful (after the soft play opposite peace and quiet was welcome!). Party bags were arranged, balloons were up, partyware on the table. We got the exact area we wanted, which was great. I really recommend you request the far corner, by the pool, right at the back of the restaurant, it makes you feel as if you have your own private space and there is enough room for the children to wander around without getting in anyone's way and they peacefully watch the swimmers go up and down (hyperactive boys included!!). The food is absolutely awful though. Organising the party was a hassle, staff are very unresponsive over email or phone, claiming they are short staffed and busy, which I am sure is true but not a good reason when you a cashing out a large sum of money for a party! The food choices are unhealthy or very limited if you choose the healthy options. The food looked like it had been prepared first thing in the morning or maybe even the day before and the humous and tuna looked very dry! Really unappetising. There is no room for pricing options, which when considering how bad the food is and how limited you are for choice, is simply a rip off.

The food was horrible.Lunch for myself and a 3 year old for 1 course each cost £30. Michelin star pricing for inedible food.They only have business because of Rascals.Stay away!

My soon-to-be six years old grandson had his birthday tea here after an hour in rascals, with 15 other boys. The staff were very helpful and attentive and obviously switched on for events like this. The food was excellent and the service was really great.

I had my son's 5th birthday party here and we had 40 children. The Manager was amazing and organised things so well. We were assisted by Roshni who was absolutely amazing we couldn't have wished for anyone more helpful and organised. Everyone left super happy. Thank you to all at Del'Aziz... Nicole

It was my daughters's 5th birthday celebration and we were a challenging crowd of aprox 70 people (35 child plus 35 adults). Starting from the manager we received a WONDERFUL and friendly service, the team was efficient and careful about details, the menu was yummy (children ate everything!) and everyone had a great time.A wonderful place to celebrate any ocassion!!!

If, like me, you go here because it is the closest option after going to the swimming pool at the leisure centre then I advise you to summon up your energy reserves and go elsewhere. I liked the soup on the menu so chose to have lunch here. However after sitting down the waitress said the menu hadn't been updated with today's specials. It would be so much simpler if they just wrote today's soup and salad on a blackboard instead of having to constantly print updated menus. Perhaps they could put those cost savings towards a reduction in their charges.The alternative choice I made was an "artisan" sandwich. The addition of "artisan" seems to also add £3-4 to the price as we were charged £7.25 for the privilege. I asked to not have it toasted. They brought it out toasted and asked if I'd change my mind and take it anyway. No, I said.Not long after I paid (and was automatically charged a service fee) we went to McDonald's down the road as we were still hungry.

Un agradable lugar para tener una excelente comida con la familia y amigos, el lugar cuenta con variedad de platos y bebidas

We have been having our boys' birthday parties here for the last 6 years and each time this experience has been superb. I had my son's 6th party this evening, and all the kids and parents had a fabulous time. Younus the manager is particularly excellent, professional and attentive to the last detail. He is ably aided by the friendly Zoltan and a small but super team that is well trained for birthday parties, as well as for intimate dinners and family outings. Tonight we were served by Trayana- who even gave us the leftover food in neat boxes to take back. THe food is freshly cooked and baked and served to perfection. Organic Cox apple juice, elegant platters of crudites, freshly chopped basil in the pasta sauce, fantastic lashings of cheese on home made pizza...5 stars all the way!! Thank you Del Aziz and Younus.

I used to come here when my daughter was a baby, some 7 odd years ago - it used to be reasonably priced back then. so imagine my shock (I am a born and bred Londoner, so it is hard to shock me at the best of times), when I returned with her (now 7), following an event being held at the library.We were three. We ordered exactly 2 slices of apple strudel (good, but not gold-plated), 1 brownie, a tea and a coffee. Now you'd better sit down at this point, or you may fall over in shock.Total cost - £24.90.Inclusive of service (which was fine, possibly a little over zealous at times - maybe they feel they need to justify their extortionate costs?)I blanched and asked the manager to remove service from the bill, as I felt it was too expensive.The best bit: HE CLAIMS HE CANNOT DO THAT, BECAUSE IT IS COMPULSORY, UNLESS THE CUSTOMER HAS AN ACTUAL PROBLEM WITH SERVICE.This, for the record and from a legal viewpoint, is a LIE.Service is not compulsory, it is OPTIONAL and at the customer's discretion.Nice try.He also claimed that as his cakes were bough in from outside caterers, this somehow justified the cost.Really?No, it doesn't.£6 for ONE SLICE OF STRUDEL is beyond ridiculous.I pointed out to him that the total cost of our afternoon snack would buy us an entire lunch at our local Turkish restaurant, off the Heath.I dont like being lied to.I like having money extorted out of me even less.Do yourself a massive favour and give this place a very wide berth. There are plenty of far better and cheaper food outlets around the capital,.Let's hope this place gets its just deserves sooner rather than later and fails completely, before many more people are conned.

Stopped here for coffee on a few occasions during my stay in London. Coffee was very good and great pastries and croissants. Not sure what problem some had with service. We had a great service every time. Not easy to find. Inside the Swiss Cottage Leisure Center

Went to this cafe for lunch and was shocked at how disorganised the service was. At 12:40, they were not prepared for lunch and had only a few limited dishes ready for order. For a cafe that claims to offer 'great' children's parties, they had only one dish available for children to order: pasta. Service was shockingly disorganised and quite rude and unhelpful. The food we had to order (pasta for child and a sandwich) were good, but neither of our first choices. Will not return.

What a shame. The cafe is in a great location for lunch or a coffee after using the pool but the service is woeful. The food is ok without being good but I would prefer to get back in the car and drive somewhere else rather than visit again.

Due to a mistake over a party booking (partly my fault) the cafe had not held my daughters party booking. When I phoned up the night before to check on details they had no record of the booking. Despite having 7 other party bookings that day and an extremely stressed parent on the end of a phone (me). The manager sorted out a solution which fitted around the other activities we had at the centre which meant the party was a success and went ahead just as I originally planned.Mistakes do happen from time to time but I tend to judge companies in how they handle mistakes and unhappy customers. In this instance the restaurant really stepped up to the make and sorted the problem which they deserve praise for.The food was good, arrived on time, and the service at the party was attentive and efficient.Well done!

There was the scent of chlorine and the sound of music. I HATE music in restaurants. The staff were great and found a table a bit away from the many speakers, and they turned the music down, but I wouldn't go back. I don't know anyone who actually likes music while eating. It gets in the way of conversation.

We went on Saturday lunchtime and just wanted a quick light lunch. They might just as well have been closed because nearly every empty table had a reserved sign on it. The coffee was poor, very weak. We waited half an hour for our "aritsan" sandwiches to arrive, when they came it was two bites and they were gone, portion size was very small for the price paid (over £13 in total for two small weak coffee's and two half ciabatta's). Overall, not very impressed, not a place to go on a weekend as it seemed more oriented to private functions, mostly for children,with many tables for some inexplicable reason reserved.

Service, place, food were OK. But a regular sandwich + a Coke + the service for £10+: that's not OK.

PricesFor drinks good. For food far above average for similar quality. AtmosphereGood. Nice seating area. Very spacious. Many moms with kids. FoodGood but very long waiting times for warm dishes. ServiceUntrained. Strange service processes have furthermore been established that do not seem to bring any value to the customer (e.g. no coffees in paper cups when odering food for eat-in).

And I dont eat at the Golden Arches! Waitress lovely and caring. Burger a limp brown pattie, salad leaves looked like they'd been at the back of my mother's fridge for a week! That said, wine & cordials good & bakery/ cakes looked good. Manager did apologise- eventually... & Downstairs Hampstead Theatre excellent so a great evening. Thank you lovely waitress for saving the day :-}

At last the service in this great place was fantastic it was so quick that and the food was really good and fresh. In the past service was not a great feature but they have changed. Now a really good place. Hope it stays this way.

I was satisfied with my meal at Del Aziz and the service was fine. The restaurant is within the grounds of the leisure centre, so not a great place to take a date, for example.

This could be a really good place for breakfast. Food is generally good and they do fresh juices. However the service is always uniform ally awful. The waitresses won't catch your eye this has gone on for years now. I have never been somewhere where the service staff are so avoidant. There is a nice guy behind the bar. Eventually I walked out.

The food was not at all bad, although a little salty. But the ambience and setting fro dinner was just plain weird. We went for a quick bite before going to the cinema and it was so quiet with only 4 tables including us. We sat by the window and watched people swimming while we ate. The waitress wasn't particularly knowledgeable when we asked if she could recommend anything. All in all, it was an experience but definitely not one I will be returning to as it wasn't cheap at £12-15 for a main.

The food in Swiss Cottage is as divine as the other restaurants. This location appears to be popular for childrens' parties which majorly detracts from the ambience (when compared with the other Del 'Aziz i.e., Fulham). If you want great food, no problems. If you're seeking atmosphere, wait until after 'bedtime' and enjoy.

I met a friend for dinner at Del Aziz in Swiss Cottage. I hadn't realised that we would have a poolside view, but watching the swimmers do their lengths was more entertaining than distracting. The food was yummy and my veggie friend had lot of options to choose from. The selection of cakes for pudding looked spectacular and the portions were enormous, but somewhat disapointing in flavour and a little dry. Overall a fun evening.

Haphazard, disorganised and inconsistent. When it is good it is reasonably good value in a comfortable casual setting

We went here prior to a visit to Hampstead Theatre which is a few yards away and found the food and service good. The location is rather strange overlooking the swimming pool and we were concerned that it would smell of chlorine - but it certainly did not. Service was attentive and the soups were especially good. We would return if in the area again, or try another of their locations.

My husband and I have eaten here a few times in the last few weeks, and it can feel rather different depending on what day or time of day that you eat there. Owing to its location at a leisure centre, it does tend to be fairly busy with mums and young children, and at weekends there is a surge of childrens parties. However, the food is really fresh and really good quality. However, I was a little disappointed with my fruit smoothie, which at just short of £5 seemed to be fairly watery rather than thick with fruit.

Unless you like drinking magma , double strength coffe. Unless you enjoy waiting 10 mins for service after you sit invent almost empty place. Unless you enjoy extortionate prices, dirty table surfaces and lacklustre staff staring into space unable to understand what yr saying, then this is the place for you, plus the food is underwhelming and badly made.

Chosen for its proximity to Hampstead Theatre and the good reviews (which must be from friends/relatives of the owners!) we arrived at 5.40 to an empty restaurant, were totally ignored by the staff, saw a table with my name on it, eventually someone came over and bought menus but could not explain any of the dishes. Waited over 40 minutes for food which was cold and tasteless. Managed to get waiter's attention, said food was cold, she shrugged and walked away. I asked for the service charge to be deducted from the bill, this was removed without anyone even asking why! Why is this place featured on toptable? We would have had a better experience at Macdonalds!!

We went as a makeshift pre theatre meal but were let down ultimately. Perhaps will go back under different circumstances because it all felt very rushed and uncomfortable.

Cheap & cheerful mid-Eastern-influenced chain. Charming staff. This branch is more basic and canteen-like than its fellows but v handy for Hampstead Theatre.

Four of us ate pre-theatre dinner at Del Aziz Swiss Cottage. There's no 'meeting and greeting' - a notice invites you to take a seat, and we chose a table overlooking the swimming pool. We started with a mixed meze, which was very fresh and enough for 4 (it would have been generous for the 2 it was intended for). My companions decided to go for the doorstopper toasted sandwiches. I chose halloumi in pitta but the waitress returned 5 minutes later to say there was no halloumi. The main course was ready before we'd finished the starter. Reasonable selection of wine and beers and a huge selection of teas. I'm sticking to the breakfast/lunch menu in future. The ambience is also livelier during the day.

I ordered a sandwich which to sit in costs £7.25, and to eat out £5.95. Now you'd think that would be it, but I also got charged a £1.50 'service charge'. And the bread was stale. And my pot of mint tea was £4.75. I think I was mugged.

Nice atmosphere and deli based restaurant and food more individual than many restaurants who may differ little between sites. Would return, but prices a bit above average.

Family trip to London and planned to start the day with breakfast del'aziz style. Our suspicions should have been first aroused that quality service was not a high priority when it took the waitress 20 mins to take our order. Despite not having many of our first choice menu selections, we nevertheless ordered eagerly. Some time later we reminded our errant waitress of our existence and subsequently some food and drink was left at our table. Well this waiting time had not been wasted as they had used the time to bring my coffee up to the temperature of molten lava, a feat of rare achievement that my old physics teacher would have been impressed with. Adding milk to this caused the drink to rage out of control over the cup and my hands. As the skin began to blister from the intense heat I went over to the sink behind the service counter to run my hands under the cold tap. A newly discovered fondness for health and safety must have taken hold of the waitress as she advised me I was not allowed to use this sink. Returning to our table, my daughter said she did not like the freshly squeezed apple juice or apricot jam. The waitress was obviously a keen student of children's psychology as well and she used the "learn the hard way" tactic and took away the juice and advised my 5 year old that she had ordered the jam incorrectly. We explained that we would prefer that our child was fed on this occasion and ordered replacement jam and managed to source some alternative kids apple juice ourselves from the fridge.I appreciate that for someone with such a flair for hot drink physics, child psychology and occasional health and safety policy, it is difficult to remember seemingly mundane waitress tasks such as smiling, acknowledging customers, offering advice and checking if the customer is satisfied. I therefore wish our future nobel prize winning waitress well in whatever mode of gainful employment she considers suitable. My daughter rather uncharitably suggested she should be a traffic warden. I reminded her that even traffic wardens have to deal with the general public.Later that morning when our bill was delivered, a service charge was surprisingly included in the bill. I can only assume this was a policy designed to get some tips from the weak willed and profligate of visitor. I asked this to be removed from the bill expecting to have to explain in detail the reasoning behind this. This is obviously a regular occurrence as the manageress simply corrected the bill and asked me to pay.If you like breakfast to be a challenge, are in no hurry to finish by lunchtime and are so shy you would prefer not to be acknowledged by your waitress, then this is the breakfast location of choice for you.

I follwed a recommendation in a different app expecting that this restaurant was good. A bit dissapointing I must admit. The food was average and they forgot to bring us some of what we ordered

We went to Del Aziz in Swiss Cottage on Friday night as we were staying in a hotel nearby. There was nobody else in there (could have been down to Summer holidays or people staying away because of the olympics). We had the set menu and a smoothie (highly recommend the smoothies). Great balance of vegetarian options. I am not a vegetarian, but really enjoyed the vegetarian dishes). We were very full by the end of the mains, but they were happy to box desert to take away. I don't know how they managed to keep such a large range of deserts when the place is so quiet, must be busier during the day! Finally, have to mention the pool. We had a table overloooking the leisure centre facilities. Very different! Gives you something talk about!

Del Aziz in Swiss Cottage has become the venue of choice for about seven of us who need to get together once a month for an evening meeting. The location is great for us but we also go there because of the atmosphere and food. Unfortunately on this occasion, though we had made a reservation, a table was not reserved for us. It was a quiet night so we were ok. The food was great.

Lunch at Del Aziz before a matinee at the Hampstead Theatre. Ambience is very informal and family-oriented. The regular menu and the day's specials offered a wide choice. I had the vegetarian stuffed peppers - a generous portion with two whole peppers - and my partner chose the salmon. Both were very fresh. We shared a chocolate-covered meringue which would have served four - it looked good but the texture resembled polystyrene. Will go for the choc cake next time! Enormous selection of teas and coffees. Service was prompt and pleasant. This was our first visit to Del Aziz but we'll definitely go again.

Should not be in TOP TABLE. It's a CANTEEN. I walked in and walked out straightaway. How can a TOP TABLE Restaurant be in a Leisure complex and overlooking a swiming pool?

Ok for a quick bite whilst the kids are gyming it

Del Aziz next to Swiss Cottage in London has a nice relaxed atmosphere to it, as if you are sitting in a market. The Staff where helpful and cheerful with the choice being varied. I good restaurant that I would recommend for an informal relaxed dinner.

Del Aziz is a chain of Mediterranean restaurants. On the plus side, the food is good and there is a great range of drinks and cakes if you just want a snack. On the negative side, service can be a bit hit and miss and it’s not cheap for what it is.This branch is always packed with mums, babies and buggies. If this describes you, you’ll find it very welcoming. If you’re looking for a quiet lunch venue without a lot of kids – go somewhere else.

excellent range of vegetarian and other food and everything home-made and looked delicious. Friendly, knowledgable staff and a buzzy, child friendly environment. We didnt try cakes, but they have a long refectory style table groaning with delicious looking cakes and treats for the sugar fancier. Definately worth another visit.

Good food, pleasant surroundings, uneven and sometimes indifferent service. If you are looking a place for a quick bite, this isn't it

Yet again, this was an excellent meal. The waitering is very caring but unobtrusive. The food was excellent ~ my wife had chicken tagine and I had a lamb-based main. The style is laid-back but with style and is very much in keeping with its locality.

Del Aziz in Swiss Cottage is great especially when you are off to the theatre and need a quick meal. The staff are helpful and food value for the price.

We went to Del Aziz in Swiss Cottage for brunch and were pleased with the food, value and the service. Standard breakfast fare....considering coming back to try some other things on the menu

Although this venue at Swiss Cottage, in North London didn't have belly dancing or music evenings like other of the restaurants in this chain, the tagines were good and the management was great. We were treated in such a friendly manner, and helped through our wine choice (the Nero was very good!), and we were happy to look at the activity below from the Leisure Centre's swimming pool.

The service and food was excellent but unfortunately there was flamenco dancing this night, which was not mentioned on the Del Aziz web site. The music and dancing were really good, but we had gone for a quite relaxing evening!!

Great service. Good place for kids and relaxed cafe for good healthy food

This was a pleasant find in Swiss cottage inside the leisure centre. Perfect to walk to after visiting Hampstead theatre. Lovely fresh breads, assortments of mezes and tasty meat and fish dishes. It isn't a cheap lunch time venue (4 adults meal came to over £60) but nice for a treat. It is childfreindly but be mindful if your little one likes to run around as there is lots of cakes on display at grabbing height!

Del Aziz, Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre - excellent food at a reasonable price. Worth going.

Del Aziz: our 2nd visit & it gets better! We had the 2-course menu and our main course ~ lamb kebab ~ was delicious. The service was attentive and responsive ( more bread arrived when it was noticed that we needed more to go with our houmus dish)... We will surely be visiting more times. The atmosphere has an unusual North African tone.

Lovely food at Del Aziz, quite good value with the 50% off but would otherwise be a bit expensive. Oddly situated in a leisure centre, where on one side of the restaurant you overlook the swimming - didn't bother us, but some might find it a bit strange!

I love this Del Aziz in Swiss Cottage. The 50% off TT offer really is inredible value. The menu has so many great things to choose from - all delicious!

This was great for breakfast - the staff were attentive to start but then forgot about us, but the food was good - my Eggs Benedict was very tasty and the poached eggs were perfect there was a little bit too much ham for my liking, but the smoothie was also delicious. I would definitely go back especially for tea as the cake display looks amazing.....

Del Aziz, Adelaide Road, NW3 3NF Casual & relaxed atmosphere will suit some potential customers some of the time, but not all potential customers all of the time. A fairly extensive and varied menu leaning towards its Lebanese influences is a pleasant surprise, as is the well priced wine list. We found the service to be prompt, efficient and friendly; portions are substantial and the Friday evening jazz music was professionally delivered. We'll be back!

Del Aziz NW3 3NF: an interesting setting with a lot of character. The food took quite some time to arrive (it was quite busy on a Thursday evening) but we were given complimentary olives and bread to fill the gap. The dishes were excellent and copious. A very friendly restaurant, which we will visit again.

Good food and flavours, excellent service & free sangria & flamenco show:)

We ate at Del Aziz Swiss Cottage for a pre movie dinner. Service a little lacking, but food very tasty and quick. At 50% off a cheap, yummy meal.
