The best restaurants serving African food in England

The food was quite nice. I ordered via phone call and came to pick up. Although not too organized in terms of payment but I guess that can get better

We went here recently for a quick meal out. In the day’s before the fire, this place used to be one of our favourite places to eat, but sadly no more. Food now is OK, but it used to be absolutely amazing. I get a feeling it no longer independently owned. Saying that, it shouldn’t made a difference. Hopefully they can get that old standard back.

Lovely food 🥘. I enjoyed my meal 🥘

Very disappointing indeed! My family love this place. Was planning a visit for a while. Finally found the time to pay a visit, we checked out the website and times of closing. I constantly tried to call the number on the website . (at least 6times) any way we still decided to visit, as it said 6pm on website we started our journey ( 60 mile round trip) Was very excited when we arrived, walked inside, there was a few people at tables, the band practicing, a lady, blonde hair not sure of she was host or waitress ignored us for a few minutes, I went over and asked if we could get some drinks, she said sharply we are closing at 3pm today, was quite shocked and replied, oh website advised 6pm (time now a little after 3pm) she snapped back, NOT TODAY, the manners and attitude threw me a little.(she seemed under pressure and short tempered)I tried to explain, it would ne good for potential customers making a long journey to visit, if you kept the website updated or at least answer the phone. There's a right way & wrong way to speak to people, she was very rude indeed. Has we was leaving, a member of the band asked what was wrong, I told him what had happened. Okay, I get private function was on that day, but even after all that, it's how you treat people, Some times ITS NOT WHAT YOU SAY, ITS HOW YOU SAY IT!!

A friend had heard great things about this restaurant and it did not disappoint. Food is different and delicious, filling and a must visit for those who like trying new foods.

Esta fue una experiencia sabrosa que comenzó con una cálida bienvenida a pesar de nuestra ligera tardanza. Con nuestras chaquetas rápidamente puestas, nos vieron a nuestras mesas y nos dieron el menú. El menú de almuerzo a £ 45 por persona vino con dos entrantes, uno principal y un postre. Ambos entrantes fueron increíbles, uno hecho de arroz y el otro hecho de frijoles. Los sabrosos sabores de África Occidental destacaron en ambos, pero ahora se elevaron aún más con las coberturas en uno y la base cremosa en el otro. Para la red mi esposa y mi hermana -en la ley- tenían el plato de pintadas de Guinea mientras que yo opté por el Asaro (crema de patata dulce, ñames y anguila ahumada). Ambos platos estaban muy bien. También teníamos el lado del arroz jollof y el plátano; los auténticos sabores abundan. Mille - feuille fue diferente en el buen sentido; una vez más los sabores toman protagonismo. Los cócteles eran únicos y funcionaban bien con los platos.

Sadly, this restaurant seems to have closed; it used to be our favourite rendezvous for a meal before a gig at the Academy, but I've now tried visiting twice over the past three months and both times it has been shuttered up with no sign of activity. The phone line also seems to be dead. However, it does still seem to be furnished and have tables laid up, so it is just possible that it is opening intermittently and my visits have been unfortunately timed. If anyone does manage to eat here successfully, please post a review and, if possible, provide an update on its opening policy!

En su sitio web dice 'Una auténtica experiencia ghanesa' y lo que recibimos fue solo su mal servicio y su actitud horrenda. Esta crítica no se trata de su comida, porque no tuvimos oportunidad de probar su comida y tuvimos que irnos debido a su horrible servicio.Cuando entramos al restaurante a las 8 pm, notamos el vacío allí, que sonó una alarma. Había dos empleados sentados en el pasillo viendo un combate de boxeo y uno de ellos vino a saludarme.Mi novia y yo compramos un cupón groupon para 4 personas y vinimos solo como nosotros dos, porque no estábamos seguros de si la porción de sus platos era lo suficientemente grande.Cuando les presentamos vcouher, nos dijeron que solo podían servirnos como un grupo de 4 personas y no solo dos, porque nuestro bono es para 4 personas. Les expliqué que ya habíamos hecho lo mismo en otros restaurantes y que todos se alegraron de habernos servido la comida hasta ahora. Sin embargo, todavía se negaron a servirnos la comida. Entonces les sugerí que tenemos amigos que viven a solo 2 minutos y que si vienen aquí para mostrar sus caras, ¿podrían servirnos la comida?Todavía se negaron y dijeron que tendríamos que cenar en el restaurante. ¿Volví a confirmar con ellos si eso significa que se pararían junto a nosotros y nos vigilarían para asegurarnos de que todos estamos comiendo? No respondieron pero insistieron en que no podían servirnos.Al final no tuvimos más remedio que irnos. Al salir, una mujer de edad avanzada (suponiendo que ella era parte de su personal) me preguntó por qué tomé fotos. Le dije que voy a escribir una reseña sobre nuestra experiencia y las fotos son para probar que habíamos estado en el restaurante. Los dos se enojaron de repente y comenzaron a gritarnos cuando salíamos por la puerta.Me sentí completamente decepcionado por su forma de tratar a los clientes, que casi arruinan nuestra noche. Este es el tipo de restaurante al que no le daré una segunda oportunidad y tendré que advertir a tantas personas como pueda sobre cuán ridículo es este lugar.

I am writing this review to express my disappointment with the service I received today at your establishment. At approximately 13:45, I visited your cafe with the intention of purchasing a bag of coffee using a QR code from the app, which entitled me to a complimentary purchase. However, upon presenting the QR code to the employee, a woman with curly hair and glasses, I was met with a rude and dismissive attitude. She looked me up and down as if I had said something outrageous and pointed me towards the coffee bags without any assistance. Furthermore, when I inquired about the available blends of coffee, her response was curt and unhelpful, merely instructing me to "just look." Additionally, when I attempted to explain that the QR code had an expiry date of today, April 24th, 2024, she rudely dismissed my explanation and insisted that it was expired without further consideration. The dismissive attitude and lack of professionalism displayed by your employee left me feeling spoken down upon and insulted. As a customer, I expect to be treated with respect and courtesy, regardless of the circumstances. Unfortunately, this was not the case during my visit today. I understand that mistakes can happen, but I believe it is essential to address and rectify instances of poor customer service promptly. I sincerely hope that you will take this complaint seriously and address the behaviour of your employee to ensure that other customers do not have to endure similar experiences in the future.

This was extremely tasty. The mea were good, the vegetables were good. Hell! Even the bloody rice was delicious. I definitely recommend this if you need a quick meal that’s good. They also broadcast live soccer matches to watch while your foods getting cooked.

I used often when in town , always had a great meal . Only worry was my middle , but still get mouth watering thoughts. thinking about oxtail with jallof. Fast food perfect . Not a sit down . More of an on the go type

Extensive menu with lots of wonderful dishes to treat one's taste buds. We were pleasantly surprised by the choice of available alcoholic beverages. The owners/hosts were warm and friendly and took time to go through explanations of our curiosity about some of the dishes. Strongly recommend a visit, we certainly will.

Top spot for health African / East African food. Delicious variety of authentic Ugandan food. Get the whole flask of hot chai tea with milk after your meal and thank me later!
