Workman's breakfast false advertised. Read 'sausages' but only 1 on plate, asked if this was correct despite the sign, they said it was. Was quite funny when she did offer to cook another, but for extra money as is standard. This should have been corrected free of charge as the advertisement was clear. Eggs were below average, bacon was dry, sausage was ok, coffee was ok, toast was warm bread. Fair play had ample beans and chips. Other member of staff played bad music loudly off her phone in the dining area during her break. They do seem like nice people honestly, friendly, polite etc, but just oblivious to good cafe etiquette. Save your money, go elsewhere!

merals staff got my order completely wrong, i gave my order 3 times and still they botched up my my order. member of merals staff arguing with me, ( in front of all the other customers customers ) and patronizing me as if im an idiot, no apologies. i was charged £13:50p expensive or what ( iv been ripped off ?, or did they see me coming ? ) for a quarter pounder beefburger, fries, and a coke, a mediocre meal with small portions for the price. not happy .... you decide. ....

MERALS CAFE ! It's my everyday cafe for me and I've been going ever since I could remember. BEST CAFE IN NORTH WEST LONDON. I try to gate-keep it as much because there aren't many cafe's nowadays which offer exceptional customer service and a good atmosphere. You can get possibly anything here freshly made from the fabulous chefs, anything from breakfast, lunch or even Brunch! . It's also caters to everyone offering halal menu. New management and he's Amazing ,so friendly makes you feel like your at home and the lovely lady who makes the best cappuccino in town. GREAT VALUE FOR MONEY AS WELL, DESERVES EVERY PENNY . IT'S A 10/10 FOR ME AND MAKE SURE YOU TRY IT IF YOUR EVER IN THE CRICKLEWOOD AREA.

Firstly the portion sizes are insane here, especially as it’s not pricey at all compared to any other brunch cafes. If you’re looking for good comfort food, or a huge breakfast this is the perfect cafe for you. The staff are so so friendly, they have Halal options available for you and the atmosphere in the shop is so calming with plenty of seating available.

I got the Mexican Breakfast (eggs, chorizo, peppers, avocado, spinach, sweet corn and halloumi on a tortilla) and my wife got the Healthy Breakfast (or similar name - poached eggs, avocado, salad, toast). Everything was delicious, service was friendly and the coffee was good too.

I usually trust Google with its reviews and it doesn’t let me down. This place was very disappointing. I ordered salmon benedict which was the saddest Salmon Benedict i have ever eaten. See it in the picture. They didn’t bother to sauté or dress the spinach , hollandaise sauce seems like bought from the store and squirted on cheap English muffins, tomatoes are yellowish hard as a rock .. What a fail.. We had amazing breakfast in London previous two days for the same price and third day unfortunately had this. I am sorry but I have no idea where did these reviews came from..

We had full breakfasts. Would definitely return if we are in cricklewood again. Just a little observation that sums up staff friendliness- I observed the server serve an older gentleman a takeaway dish. She obviously knew him well as she put her hand out and helped him stand up and then she walked out ahead of him and opened the door for him. Lovely to see. Thanks for the experience

I used to love this place but today they let me down. Cold beans, and far too much butter on the toast. And when you say something they are shocked and slow to correct it. I was half way through my breakfast before I recieved replacement toast. Going to explore other place now as this place has gone downhill. Beans all over the place and cold. Chipped plate Soggey toast one bite and the butter on the tissue is what came off of my mouth. Come on guys get it together.

Nice place has three other services in this shop paan place which is like a leaf with some bits on u can eat suppose to be refreshing is for some, then a desert place however they lady was serving saffron sweet, which I wanted to have a taste of before I buy it however she refused, then there is Meera’s place at the back, do Somoza spring roll lots of gujrati snacks, Indian vegetarian, nice food but hard to understand as really rush the service as they can get busy, Punjabi Somoza are good but small in size you get three for £3.25? Something like that overall ⭐️⭐️⭐️
