Sams Cafe in Tower Hamlets - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Saw this place on Darren Johns YouTube and had to visit. Top rate food and service was outstanding. Ordered full English with bubble and was advised no bubble left - our disappointment was obvious and the lovely lady had a word with the chef who made us some. Best bubble ever! Friendliest service ever, a must do.

I was in the area hoping to know to a different very well known café along the street, but the queue for the other place was very long and I was getting hungry so this cafe was just 10 doors away, it was a great breakfast! Sausage looked strange, but it was tasty. Fried egg with a warm runny yoke, and very tasty bacon. The mug of tea was delicious and hot. Need to mention the very clean toilets, always a great sign.

Although great food, my experience for dinner and lunches has consistently been the same: Lousy service: The waiters chat amongst each other, even if there are hardly any customers...If they could pay more attention to those buying from them the whole experience would be SO much better

Visting from Northern Ireland looking for a nice cafe, we went in and it was close to closing time, the staff were so friendly and gave us a table, our server was so nice, we had the all day fry, it was amazing, included toast tea or coffee. We were rushing as we didn't want to keep them back, the chef said don't worry you take your time. Coffee was amazing. Highly recommended.

Coming back from Colombia Rd and a quick, cheap lunch was needed. I would thoroughly recommend Sam's Cafe since food was prepared exactly as I asked for. My wife said her panini was excellent also. £18 for the two of us with tea and coffee. Excellent value for good food and efficient, polite service.

Reasonable food with a pleasant atmosphere… I think it is overpriced as small coffee with scrambled eggs with bacon bits came to over £ 18.00

No booking that we could see so turned up on a Sunday about 10am. 4-5 staff around but were completely ignored. Eventually caught a server and asked if they had a table for 2, abrupt rude response, Nope. No offer of vacant outdoor table or to give us takeaway. Been wanting to try this for a while but experience didn’t match Instagram image.

Staff are charming but side dishes arriving at different times means main course goes cold. Frozen foil wrapped squares of butter add nothing to the experience. Whole operation needs tighter management front of house and kitchen. Good location quieter than main drag of Regents Park Road or England’s Lane. Not cheap for the food offering, but use decent tea bags. Few tweaks could make massive improvement.

I payed for a breakfast maybe once a week, they always complain about tap water they don't like giving water for customers. They being swearing and shouting at me for no reason at all since. Not great with customers service, avoid this cafe, they are plenty of cafe within walking distance they give me the best customers service and top quality food ever, cheap too and serve good customers service with a smile. I won't be coming back, they are cafes are in bethnal green road there are the following I would recommend Pellicci and cafe 338 London.

Cool venue with welcoming staff and good food! A great experience in a cool area way from the hustle n bustle of Primrose Hill.

Given the competition and abundance of good cafes in the area, I thought Sams would be up there. The coffee was fabulous, food tasted great initially and good portions too. The only reasons I’m marking this down is because the bread was slightly stale, the service was less attentive and halfway through my meal, I found a tiny hair in my food.

this is not the food i expected to eat, very basic, cheap sausage, beans,cold , no friendly, quite expensive for the cheap ingredient

I revisited this cafe after being away. The serves are still enormous, prices have gone up ever so slightly, but when the set breakfast includes toast and tea/coffee, they are still very reasonable. Basic cafe food, with the option of a Turkish breakfast, vegetarian and choice of main meals. Burgers, grills, salads, jacket potato and home-made options like moussaka, curry, pies and lasagne. There are a few seats out the front, but its on a busy road, so not the nicest al fresco dining! If you aren't a big eater, or just after a snack, you could share a set breakfast between 2!

Good value local cafe. Clean. Plenty of choice on menu. Friendly staff. Usually go there for an all inclusive full English Breakfast.

We stopped into Sam's Café for an impromptu breakfast on the way to the flower market, and I was really impressed. The food is affordable, the coffee is strong, and the service is really friendly. Great vibe - would definitely recommend!

Great breakfast. Good cafe. Friendly staff. Prompt service. Will go again. Had full English, tea and toast.

The best breakfast ever and really nice people to.Honestly priced and you won't be disappointed.Spent two weekends over the past year going there,love it.

Estado visitando Londres por muchos años de Escocia siempre visitar Cafe sam's como el desayuno es muy bueno, aunque no residen cerca. La comida es muy buena y una excelente relación calidad-precio. Personal muy amable y atento. No es pretencioso, como otras cafeterías en la zona.

Típica comida inglesa, los desayunos descomunales y con bastantes calorías, pero rico para hacerlo de vez en cuando y sentirse toda una inglesa, tomé desayuno ahí una vez y quedé bien para casi todo el día, así que es perfecto para quienes prefieren brunch a desayuno, la salchicha muy rica. En otra oportunidad fuimos con un amigo a cenar y nos dieron unos enormes platos, así que la relación costo- cantidad compensa bastante. El plato fish and chips estaba mejor que el mío (pedí una carne con gravy con arvejas patatas y verduras).El lugar es cómodo y cercano a la estación de metro, ideal para ir con mucha hambre.

Ate here a few weeks ago for breakfast, great choice and very friendly staff and extremely great value for money.

Sam's is a great cafe in the "East End" if you want traditional english cooked breakfast or english . The food is all freshly cooked to order and extremely tasty, but be warned, the portions are huge!!. A great friendly cafe with attentive staff.

I have been going to SAMs cafe for 4years the food is great value for money and very tasty, the staff are friendly the service has always been fast even when busy so when in Bethnal Green road give it a try my favourite is the roast beef or roast lamb dinner

After a walk along an increasingly busy Brick Lane on a Sunday morning looking (and failing to find) for somewhere for an early lunch, we wandered along Bethnal Green Road and came across Sam's Café. What a treat! A straightforward, unpretentious eating place where we were made very welcome.There is an extensive menu but we both had a hankering for a cooked breakfast so didn't get much further in the menu than that. M had a sausage, bacon, ham, and mushroom omelette, while I had a mushroom and cheese omelette. The menu said these came with chips or salad, but the waitress/owner also offered hash browns, which I couldn't say no to. We each had a huge orange juice and a coffee (no messing here with the hot drinks: tea 80p coffee £1 - they did stretch to a cappuccino but nothing more swanky than that - how refreshing!)I wish Sam's Café was nearer to where I live - the service was quick and friendly, the food was great, and it was excellent value at £8 each for a huge lunch and two drinks.

If you're craving a classic cooked breakfast, these guys do it properly. Huge portions and always a satisfying start to the day :)

Sam's is a great little cafe with a large menu and even larger portions! The breakfast menu is particularly recommended! Staff are very friendly. I will be going back.

This is more than a greasy spoon; the prices are low, the portions are big, and the staff are really friendly. Makes a nice change from some of the pretentious places in Bethnal Green.

Tasty cafe grub, with basic decor. Staff are friendly & the service is quick & efficient. Servings are huge. They offer many breakfast combinations, including a Turkish breakfast & several vegetarian options. Also burgers, fish/chips, grills & home-made meals. Be warned, the coffee is SO hot, I often burn my tongue! Recommended if in the area, & only a short walk from Bricklane.

What a nice friendly place with the staff working hard to please. Food was very good and the premises were very clean. Would recommend.

Every sunday me and my girlfriend treat ourselves with a great breakfast at Sam's Cafe. The staff is friendly, the prices are reasonable, the food is good and their cofee is great! Also, it doesn't matter how crowded the place is, the service is fast.

This place is truly amazing. Food is not expensive, very tasty and portions are huge. One of the best places in East London for English breakfast and sunday roast. 10 out of 10!

A hearty, well priced and high quality breakfast.The staff are friendly and welcoming,and the service is fast and efficient.

Sam's cafe is fabulous. Found by accident on Xmas Day. Very reasonably priced. Plenty of food. Fast and friendly service. Wonderful

After visiting Brick Lane we decided to walk along Bethnal Green Road to find a good, clean place to have a meal. The waitress was very welcoming and friendly and showed us a window table to sit at. I ordered egg, chips and a cup of tea and my husband had mushrooms, beans and chips and a glass of water. The portions were large and I wondered if I could get through it. The waitress came over and offered me another cup of tea (not sure if it was a refill as I didn't have to pay for 2 cups). The toilets were upstairs but clean with plenty of toilet rolls,soap and paper towels. I haven't come across such a good eating place for a long time, and as we will be in the area again next week will certainly be going there again. Plain, simple food well cooked. A gem at £6.80
