Falafel in Nottingham

Absolutely delicious!!! Great value. Probably the best falafel I've ever had. Would definitely come back.

Had the sharing platter for two, was just incredible to look at and so delicious too. Want to go back to Nottingham just for this

Excellent! Lovely staff, great service, nice food, very efficient and such a lovely atmosphere! Great job guys! 😊

Fantastic food!! Could do with it's own place though - but would 100% recommend! So affordable and so tasty 😋

Visited Falafel Cafe with my wife and had an amazing experience! We ordered shisha and mint tea, which were both excellent. Nick, one of the staff, was incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing evening

Sıshas are very nice in evert time ; the best sısha is Notts. Stuffs are very friendly, especially Nick. We had appreciated to everythıng.

Rubbish! Overpriced. Chewy small dry Shawarma labelled as large for £12! Not worth £5 that. Staff unfriendly. Gregg's pizza is better.

Visited recently, very happy with the food and the service by the staff and I believe his name was Adam, very polite and patient, overall good experience.

Great food and amazing service from Abdul, quick service

Great service from Abdul!! Only reason I’m coming back is for the falafel and Abdul’s service!

Abdul has been very helpful and the food is amazing. I recommend the chicken shawarma and the pepperoni pizza. 10/10

I had an exceptional dining experience. The food was delicious, the atmosphere inviting, and Abdul provided outstanding service—attentive, professional, and truly made the experience memorable. Highly recommended!

This place has gone down hill hard! Dunno whether the lass that used to work here lost her job in the refurb but she used to run a tight ship and now it’s just a bit grotty. Dirty behind the counter, feels like it’s staffed by teenagers or something who can’t tidy up. I used to be proud to bring visitors here but will probably give a miss now. Shame, get back on track Falafel!

I didn’t know her name but she provided us with excellence service and had a great smile the whole way through. Made me feel extremely welcome. Great customer service and the portion were big !

as a vegetarian i cannot recommend this place enough to anyone else (also non-vegetarians) the falafel is amazing, some of the best i have ever had. highly recommend

I didn’t know something vegetarian could taste this divine… succulent peppers, amazing crunchy fried falafel all neatly nested in a toasty pitta smothered in hummus. I haven’t tried falafel this good anywhere else .

Falafel was always good, but since they re-opened after renovations they've really stepped up their game and the food is just sublime! The bread they bake for the falafel sandwiches is so super fluffy and tasty.

Excellent food and customer service, will definitely visit again.

We had falafel sandwich which was just fine. Something in the salad had either gone bad or it was a vegetable i do not know about. Hummus was just fine, i had better ones where you actually taste the authentic taste in it. The bread they serve it which was good. Cheese fries were alright, i think they should introduce cheesey sauce that would be amazing. Fries were very nice on their own.

Waited 20 mins for a takeaway falafel sandwich.

My favourite place ever, literally order all the time because everything is so tasty, esp the falafal and garlic cheese chips. Literally never had a bad order from this place <33333 - tanny xx

I highly recommend this establishment. The food was delicious, and the lady who served me was very helpful and kind.

My worst shawarma experience in Nottingham he toasted the bread for too long, making it hard and difficult to eat and it's overpriced than normal shawarma shop

Tried this place while visiting Nottingham this weekend. Had the Syrian Kebab and it was outstanding. The staff were very lovely as well. Also, they have a soda called "Palestine Cola," and if you like Coca Cola, PC way better in my opinion. 10/10

Love the pizza, the fries seasoning is so good

The best falafel I have ever had, you need to visit this place, never fail to deliver. My partner and I get the mezze, it's so delicious!

This place is one of the BEST takeaways in Nottingham, everything is so good and the people are really friendly :)

The food here is fantastic and so is the service. Lots of choice and really great coffee too. Perfect for us. Fab lunch we had. Thank you so much to the lovely people that made the food and served us. 🌟

It was an amazing experience came in with my friend the food was fabulous best falafel ever customer service was amazing

Had a nice chat with the owners brother. Also the staff was friendly. But that's the only reason for two stars. Unfortunately something wasn't good with me after eating the falafel plate. I'm really hygienic and when it comes to food I'm a resilient person, it doesn't happen often, that I have issues with digestion. But just 30 min after eating this I felt horrible. I don't want to share any details but trust me this is not ok.

Amazing falafal and value for money. If you're hungry the mezze platter for two is incredible.

Love love love falafel but ordered today for delivery and the vegetables and sauce were all random mixed and not the stuff we asked for. Still tastes great but just ended up not getting the choices we are offered to choose online which is a shame.

Nice little joint with great falafel, as expected. I recommend the Iraqi sandwich in particular. Friendly staff too. For the courageous, try the ‘Tel Aviv sandwich’ off the secret menu. God bless.

Me and my auntie went to this restaurant. Later in the day we both got a really bad food poisoning. We tried to call the restaurant but they wouldn’t pick up. Wouldn’t recommend.

Amazing food , everything is nice and lovely stuff

Poor pricing vs other places been, slightly better than shop quality but still not great and as a Jewish person couldn't of been made to feel less safe.

This place is incredible! It was a little oasis of calm and delicious food on a busy Saturday night in town. I don't even like falafel but these were delicious - got the Iraqi falafel sandwich, it was a taste sensation! They do meat kebab too and the lady was great at helping me (and others) coming in with no idea what to order.

Fabulous food. Totally authentic

my best mate got felt up here?? over worked and underpaid fr

Amazing food, Mohammad was a great person to talk to about the food. What a treat!

AMAZING falafel. As a huge fan of middle eastern food, this is truly the tastiest falafel I have had. The salad was fresh and the bread was made while I waited. I had to wait around 10 mins but they were pretty busy and understandably why. Well worth the wait. I found it to be clean and the staff were really friendly. Very chilled and just what this city needs. The amount of food you get is more than enough, I couldn't finish the sandwich. The deserts look delicious so ill try them next visit! In conclusion, it was worth the visit and the food is LUSH!

The best late night food in nottingham!! The workers are so friendly and the updated interior looks amazing

*UPDATE - they've had a refurb and it looks amazing! LOVE IT! Never had proper falafels in England, just the dry shop ones - if you've never had a fresh one you need to go try it. Crispy on the outside and soft in the inside 🤤. I've had them by themselves and in a sandwich, both were so good. Staff have seemed really nice and friendly ☺️

Excellent, fresh and authentic food. Recommend eating in. Good value. Friendly staff. Food hygiene rating is 5 as per July 2023.

Excellent customer service, amazing food Akil went extra mile ..I strongly recommend

Very tasty food with fresh ingredients. We received a big pleasure in this place.

Probably we'll over 30 years since I've had a 2am snack after a night out. Very good.

Had the Turkish Falafel Sandwich. The best falafel I've ever had and the best food I've had in Nottingham . Highly recommend

Excellent food. Good prompt service

Quick service, amazing falafel, pickles were lovely. Would recommend for authentic middle eastern food in Nottingham.

The falafel was really yummy, but I didn’t like the halloumi fries

Amazing food! Great for vegetarian’s. Delicious platter for two. Also had brilliant Karla chai. All at a great price. Would really recommend! Came freshly and well presented

the Palestinian Falafel Sandwich was fantastic… like insane. Highly recommend, good prices and freshly made bread. I also got the moussaka which was also a 10/10. thought I’d be able to save some for later but I demolished it all.

Very good hilal Arab food in Nottingham must try

Amazing food fresh and full of flavour

I honestly wanted to like this place. I love Falafel and was really eager to try as I heard it was authentic. The veggies were great but unfortunately the Falafels were really bad 😞 I gave 3 stars because I would be willing to go back and try a different falafel.

Great location next to Old Market Square, plenty of outdoor seating. Absolutely brilliant amount of choice, freshly made food. Really enjoyed it and will be returning.

Amazing place, saw it from a distance and had no idea that it would be this good. Had the meal for two and four about £20 we were stuffed with the best Mediterranean food that I've had for a long time.

Falafel is one of my favourite places to go in Nottingham for a quick, fair priced and high quality dinner. Jess is amazing, she always welcomes me with a lot of love and great vibes. She’s bubbly and friendly which I’m sure contributes to the love put into the food. I always leave happy.

Amazing food and I wanted to try everything, friendly staff, very very busy, bustling atmosphere lots of takeaways etc. Clearly lots of regular customers who knew staff too. Seems like a well loved place. Happy to eat there again, felt like I was able to get a wholesome, vegetable/wholefood based meal in the middle of a city and that's rare when you feel surrounded by junky fast food

Arab guy here, don’t get the knafeh, an absolute disgrace, it shouldn’t taste like cardboard + there is no cheese in it whatsoever

Love the food here but the young blond-ish server told us me i was “the reason she wanted to kill herself”…

If you’re going for kunafa!! Don't go lol its just not kunafa they just give you a vermicelli baklawa and then if you just say its not what you wanted the staff gets mad at you 🧐 as a Middle Eastern i know what is kunafa and what not so getting mad on asking what it is instead is not really good😒

Really delicious falafel, made really well. Pretty quick and well worth it. There’s some space to sit, but it’s not a massively sit-in space.

Over 15 years, I have tried a lot of falafel in different countries and this one is definitely in my personal TOP-5!

Hands down the best falafel place in Nottingham! The food is always fresh and flavours are authentic. It's a small little shop with limited indoor area, the outdoors seating can be nice option on dry days.

Very good and long-established Fallafel house (the first in Nottingham) with a variety of fresh Fallafel specialties. A must try if you are in Nottingham

I had a Palestinian Falafel Sandwich. It was so good and really filling and I would definitely recommend it!!!

Great selection, and the falafels (we had one Iranian, one Palestinian) were incredible. Top service from Didi and Jess (sorry if we got the names wrong!)

Had the Iraqi Felafel sandwich. Absolutely delicious, really quick friendly service.

Tasty falafel and good service 👍🏼🥙

Food is amazing and the service is even better... love coming and having my gossip sessions with Bibi,she is an absoluetly amazing person.

This place is class. The best place to eat in Nottingham if you’re looking for something nice at lunch or, even better, after a night out. The lady who owns the place (Bibi) is great as well, always so friendly and has great banter too! There needs to be more eateries like this place. One of my favourite places to eat……every time I’m in the city I insist on eating here!

Absolute best falafel in Nottingham. Fresh and flavourful. I highly recommend their Turkish falafel sandwich!

Amazing fresh food, and very friendly staff. this is a vegetarian place the best so far in Nottingham, and located in the city center. shame the shop is too small for eating inside....I mainly go for a takeaway now.

I really liked the taste of falafel. Palestinian falalfel pitta with Tahini sauce was incredible. KARAK tea was amazing. I would come again and again

We really enjoyed the delicious food. We shared a ‘meal for 2’ which had a verity of everything and left us feeling sufficiently full. We sat outside and enjoyed the atmosphere of the center, they do have heaters over a couple of outdoor tables but no cover for rain. I would come back.

The falafel wrap was delicious.

Phenomenal place for falafel. Try the Palestinian falafel and the lentil soup. Bibi is terrific. She'll take care of your order in no time. Warm place.

Always amazing. Gluten free bread always available. Amazing food, atmosphere, service, everything.

Best food in Nottingham I have had so far! Been getting it on Deliveroo. the hummus is TRANSCENDENT 😊

Amazing Palestinian falafel tasted so fresh. Quick service lovely food.

Good place for vegetarians and vegans to have falafel!!

The falafel sandwich here is too good, especially when out in the city. The Falafel was so crisp and the blend of flavours was just so good. Jess was also class, great humour and she gave us the best picks on the menu

They advertise “New York style pizza” outside the door, and it is absolutely that - perfect pizza. Big portion for the price, been looking for a place like this for years

First time visit. Food was very tasty. Long wait for take out - 25mins which was an issue on lunch break so best to pre- order

Food was delicious, we had the meal for two, so...much...tasty...food! The falafels and hummus especially. Upstairs seating as well. Definitely a nice affordable place to have some Mediterranean goodness ^^ also staff was lovely, customer service is top notch!

Tuesday lunch. I've wanted to come for a long time, but the pandemic turned me into a homeworker and I'm rarely in Nottingham at the right time of day. I'm a little bit blown away by just how good this place is. Based on my selection I'd liken it to a top notch vegetarian kebab shop - who needs meat when the food is this good!? We had two of the mini platters, one Turkish, one Iraqi. WARNING - the 'mini' platters are huge. Most people I saw were opting for a 'sandwich', probably a more realistic aim. My fellow diner could only eat about half, but luckily the supplied bread is ideal to wrap up the rest for later. So many flavours and textures - the food took about 20 minutes to arrive, but that's understandable when everything seems freshly cooked to order. I asked for a pot of chilli sauce, which was not overpowering, but contained flavours I've never tasted before. I wish I'd asked what the magic ingredient was.

Wow, it's hard to come by this type of amazing food in the middle of England. It was way healthier than the usual meaty options and a lot tastier. Service has been poor in my last two visits, hope it can be addressed.

Stopped in today, 3rd October 2023 for a bite to eat, ordering the Turkish Falafel mini platter with falafel, baba ganoush, chilli sauce, garlic sauce, turnip, pickles, red cabbage, lettuce, tomatoes and cucumber which was exceptional in quality, taste, and appearance. Added bonus is Falafel offers customers V & GF items on their menu! 👍🏽👍🏽 The open dining area on the pavement outside of the restaurant was lovely in the Autumn sunshine today, however my four star rating on Atmosphere actually has nothing to do with the space provided by Falafel's, but because of the number of people (4) who approached my table to beg for money which reflects on the City Council and not Falafel. Despite that, if you enjoy good quality Middle Eastern cuisine and friendly service give it a try.

Jess was amazing, such an asset to the restaurant! Will 1000% be returning!! Do not miss this shop (and Jess) when you are in notts!

I loved the food! They have a vast selection of delicious hummus and falafel, I had the Palestinian and Turkish falafel sandwiches, and the baba ganoush, all of which was gorgeous. I kept going back!!!

Literally the best takeaway in Nottingham for healthy-ish guilt free takeaway on a night out. Big up falafel

Stopped by to have a pizza slice, cheap prices only 3 pound for the great tasting pizza 🍕 lovely outside area to sit and nice staff

Eat from here last night. Service was flawless and falafels made to order. Cleanest place I’ve been to since visiting Nottingham and would return it back in the city. Thanks again for my falafel sandwich, everything including the bread was great!

Amazing. So much flavour in every bite

We absolutely love Falafel. The food is great, really fantastic flavors and always well made by the friendly staff. We go every time we are in Nottingham, and it has been one of our favourites for a long time! There are a ton of vegetarian options (which is rare) and the food is always fresh and super tasty.

Excellent falafel palestinien. Un régal.

Wonderful restaurant with great shisha

This is definitely going to be my new go to places for food… the falafel sandwich which was just so good… and staff was very nice and friendly
