The best restaurants serving African food in England

Best breakfast ever!!! My favourite was the french toast, everybody needs to try it! Great coffee (coming from a coffee connoisseur) and really fresh orange juice! It must visit if you are nearby

Just wanted to say a massive THANKYOU!! Me and my family came here and were served with outstanding service!!! The gentleman who served us made everything so fun and enjoyable for us! It was my mother in laws birthday and she was delighted! She even met the chef who was lovely! Thank you for making our trip worth while and your fantastic service and wonderful food!! Everything was delicious and what we couldn’t finish was kindly put in bags for us 😊

This restaurant is gone it’s upd and went to the restaurant heaven in the sky it is no more it’s ceased to exist and doesn’t has passed

Gran noche pasada aquí, la comida era deliciosa. Propietario y personal - excelente. . . Mi única queja sería que es bastante caro, por lo que debe considerarse una visita u ocasión especial, no en un lugar en el que pueda pasar o tratar como su local.

Guau. ¿Por dónde puedo empezar? La suculencia de las carnes variadas, la p p del jollof, el sabor a cecina y garra del plátano era absolutamente sublime. No he tenido una comida tan satisfactoria desde mi brecha en Gambia, verdaderamente magnífica. Mis felicitaciones al joven que era chef y camarero, o como dirían mis camaradas nigerianos: "Necesita tantos elogiosssssss". Y puedo decir que el suya llevó nuestra comida a otro nivel. Después de dos o tres piezas, la p p realmente golpea la parte posterior de la garganta. Wow wow. ¡Un 20/10 de nuestra parte! Definitivamente volveremos muy pronto

I ordered from here off uber eats, I wouldn't again as they sent me burnt rice stuck to the tray and 3 pieces or beef. Spent quite a bit for that meal just for it to go in the bin as the shop was closed when my order arrived a hour late.

We were very disappointed with the food. We order the Family Meal 1 off the menu for £35. The pizzas we chose were the Margareta and Chicago, the Margareta was burnt on top and was bland and the Chicago had no pepperoni on it or if it did had no taste plus this was burnt and bland. The only good part was the sides and the bottle of drink!!!! I did look at the reviews before ordering on thete website, but the people have low expectations or they were done by friends or family!!!!! I will never order from there again

An absolute find! I went with a group of friends (all vegetarian, some vegan) and we had a fantastic meal from sharing plates (and samosas to die for). Very reasonable cost, delightful service, nice wine and I just can't wait to go back!

I came across this restaurant today me and my mum were hungry. So went in and ordered a take away. We ordered Injera, with 3 type lamb meat with Veg. Upon reaching home and opened the food, I was disgusted by what I saw. The Lamb had hardly any stew, it looked like they had scrapped the barrel and just binged what was left over, the vegetable looked all missed up, the Injera tasted like a packet of Malt was thrown on it. I immediately called the restaurant to complain the first lady who answered claimed she could not understand me, I was passed over to a man, I complained about the contents of the food. He offered to refund my money however it would mean given my bank details which I did not feel comfortable with. It was not even clear if he was that bothered. I will never venture here again ever! It was clear they did not have the food we selected but greed made them scrape the barrel and charge 13.95 for disgusting food. I think they felt we had not eaten the food and thought they could get away with serving rubbish. Wrong. All you did was ensure I never visited the place ever again. My mum could not eat her food, I just threw mine away Yuk! Absolute. Disgrace.

A friend and I went in @ 5.30 on a Saturday. We weren't shown a menu or prices. We considered the waiter helpful and friendly as he talked us through our options. We ordered 2 medium size meals, 1 bottle of beer & 1 bottle of water. It is more a cafe than a restaurant. The food was cheap cafe standard. We were charged £50 & the waiter refused to let us see a menu or drinks prices. £20 would have been a fair price. .

Always a treat to have a breakfast sandwich from here - But that's not all the selections of cold sandwiches for lunch is superb and very reasonably priced. If you can wait they will deliver locally as well :-)

This is a hidden gem . The staff excellent and if we go out large group they organised the table for us value for money

The nearest bus stop is Caldecot Street, on routes 185, 35, 45 and 345, on the same side as Nicen@Spice on this sloping hill, about twenty strides from the chain-store stretch of Camberwell. The all glass frontage was so sparkly, not one poster or menu sellotaped on, that I thought the design team had just signed off and driven away from a brand new busines It was already open at 9am, the sealed lunch boxes already stacked neatly in the chiller counter. The masked Boss Lady told me all that makes me happy, that they take cards and cash, that the lunch box deal was just £5 at midday. Don’t be confused or ask too much about the “fusion” of Afro reference on the shopfront. It is properly West-ish the most popular edit, so there is no injera, no cous cous and no bunny chow, no kenke or banku. My guess is that it may be impolite to try and define by region. Mother Africa to all. The aspect is luxe chic rather than homey earth tones, theme park or clinical. The floor is glittering granite and the moderne diamante light fittings above the counter will impress you as much as chandeliers would at the Moscow Metro station. The atmosphere elevates your purchase experience. The seating is comfortable and bright scarlet. All that is missing is a tuxedo-ed door supervisor and a velvet rope. The puff puffs are yum yum. Someone else can review beans and egusi soup. Feel your pulse rate slow down and relax to the curated playlist, redolent of Kenny G saxophone magic and ultra mellow hi-life. I heard that this gem is on the Just Eats website, so you can order that way too. There will be two camps, folk who know what they want and how it should be, with people like me who know from mates’ home cooking but still on a voyage of respectful discovery. The other camp is coming in stone cold and needing a crib sheet. Two ladies came in looked around silently and left with a menu. is quite a lot to google, as there is no menu narrative and no dish photographs on the stylish white walls. I went in with just trust and was beyond impressed, you will be fed right. Anything “beans” such as moin moin can be enjoyed as you would hummous with your own sourdough or shattering crispbreads, make your own crunchy salads. Need to know, Suya is grilled meats with dry spice rub, very chilli hot. Mates made it with gizzard and chicken liver, check with these Boss Ladies what they do. It won’t be sticky and it won’t be sweet BBQ. It needs cooling drinks and it is addictively delicious. The £5 lunch deal is a perfect starting point. Jollof is flavourful rice cooked with blended peppers tomatoes thyme and garlic. There is a scattering of sliced plantain and a tender chicken portion on the bone, which has no batter or breadcrumb. The best discovery for me is the modestly understated “meat stew” for just £3.50 October 2020. It is the house selection of all the humunggously daunting array at fresh markets. There were manageable bite sized bits of honeycomb tripe (as opposed to Rolodex book tripe or the one that looks like a fluffy towel), a centre piece cross section bone which had lots of meat on it, a domino sized piece of stewed outer cow foot, some beef shin with lots of tendon and a split bone smoked turkey leg portion with all the rich marrow intact, if you like liver you will like this turkey marrow too. There may have been some goat belly. There is a heck of a lot of skilful preparation to these goodies, I sort of know (post mortem pedi over a naked gas flame, tussling with two gallon pressure cookers anyone) and I am glad the Boss Ladies really take care of business behind their kitchen door. The peppers and tomato stew sauce was rich and splashy with red annatto palm oil, just as it should be. Eat this preferably with bibs, a paper tablecloth and a pile of napkins. Helpful hint - you can eat around meaty big bones with just thumb and index finger holding the rough sides of the bone chunk, that is my clean eating done. This is not first date food. Also, Afro meat stew is not cooked so long that it melts into shreds, they have a bit of a chew which is a good thing. Meats In the boxes and lidded bowls are freezeable, it may be an idea to stock up just in case government rules get more restrictive. If you are amongst Muslim brethren, impress them by only eating with your right hand. This stew looks pork free. If you know your Italian osso bucco, Chinese trotters, Polish golabki, Turkish tripe soup, JA oxtail, this one has your name on it. I would urge novices and newbies to eat this stew with the pounded yam, it is a unique and just the fun-nest warm carb with a bouncy play-doh consistency if it is made properly. Using your two “eating fingers”, squish a lump into a marble, and dip into the sauce keeping your fingers clean, you can do it.

Six of us were spending the weekend down in Poole. After spending a day on the beach we wanted a takeaway This was a 5 min walk from where we were staying. The service was very friendly and they cooked fresh fish for us and it was very nice. Also had sausages and saveloys All in all great food decent portions and good price. Would recommend. They also do burgers and pies and you can eat in for breakfasts as well. Would recommend this is a place to eat

Visitamos Beulah restaurante en Forest Hill esta noche. Nos dijeron que sólo abrió anoche (yo lo vimos en mi camino a la estación de tren - es inmediatamente detrás Forest Hill Station). El menú es estándar para los nigerianos un restaurante en Londres, pero los precios son mucho más razonables. Teníamos Moi Moi, Jollof Eforiro con arroz, ñame golpeado y algunos plátanos fritos. La comida llegó rápidamente y estaba delicioso. El Eforiro era sin duda de calidad superior a la de muchos restaurantes, con una gran cantidad de carne variada y el cangrejo adecuada, etc. Muy recomendable. El servicio era rápido y amable. Nos dijeron que la pareja propietaria del lugar son los pastores. El único inconveniente es que no sirven bebidas alcohólicas. Sin embargo, esto puede cambiar. Tienen vinos y cervezas sin alcohol en el menú.
