The best restaurants serving African food in London

I absolutely loved this place! It's so colourful and engaging and it has a very wide array of vegan food options. I loved the Africando. The prices are also a great rarity in London in still being actually affordable! I will try and make it back whenever I am next in Brixton.

Excellent food, Hatem the chef is very friendly and goes out of his way to make us feel welcome. He is passionate about his place of origin and it shows in his culinary skills.

My second visit and it was once again delicious! Comfortable atmosphere, friendly service, and delightful and flavourful food!

Nigus was an excellent host, the service was impeccable and the cleanliness and quality of food was amazing. Portion size was also huge for 2 people. I would definitely recommend anyone to come here for great authentic Ethiopian food!

Todo fue excelente, una de las mejores comidas que he tenido en mi vida. Todo fue perfecto, desde la comida hasta el servicio. Muy recomendable para todos los amantes de la comida.

Merkamo , 42 Hanbury St , London E1 Zinash show us our table , she was so helpful We were going outside to take some pictures , but Zinash said we could use the downstairs as no one was there , so we had the place to ourselves.we did ask if we can clean up after we made a mess , but was told not to as they will do it , so back up to our table and order our food , the food was fantastic and said we will be back . as for Zinash she is a 5* could not do enough for us Don't forget to like this and subscribe , as it will help to keep me going and post more videos , a big thanks for all that look in , and have a great day :)

The food was amazing. The service was impeccable. Definitely would recommend them. I had the small trays of Ayamashe, jollof rice, garnished chicken and fried rice (the prawns size - amazing).

Seafood platter was Brilliant! The food portion was reasonable and very tasty we had good customer service too.

Fabulous restaurant great food friendly staff good service and great value will definitely be coming back again. I would highly recommend

OMG. This food is a privilege. Homemade authentic Ethiopian food. Vegan. Beautiful tasty fresh. We were four we washed down our feast with Ethiopian beer and nice wine available. The cake was amazingly delicious too Beautiful place Beautiful service A very special find

Starter - Butternut and ginger with coconut cream soup with side order of coco bread 10/10 delicious 😋 I would have had a second bowl if I could have managed it. Main - Monkfish tail in shellfish sauce with buttery mash, Ma's Benachin Gambian national rice and grilled stem broccoli outstanding.  Gambian rice highly seasoned and not what I was expecting. Still tasty.  Loved it. Dessert - Winter fruit crumble tart with Madagascar vanilla gelato! Struggled to finish but wasn't going to leave a scrap! This was a dining experience to remember. I ticked this off my list of fine dining!  Surpassed all my expectations! Myrtle the manager at Papa L's Kitchen was welcoming, friendly and made my experience enjoyable.  The service was good.  Meecha my server was very attentive. Overall I would highly recommend dining at Papa L's Kitchen.  I will be back.

Waren spät unterwegs und suchten noch was für den Abend. Würden mega überrascht sehr freundlich und bemüht.... Jeder Zeit wieder.

Arrived quite late at a nearby hotel and chose this place for a late evening meal. Very warm and welcoming from the moment we stepped through the door, very helpful advising on the menu and the food was amazing. Really glad we called in and can highly recommend.

Excelente café, a muy buen precio, preparado con mucho cariño. Hay un café diferente cada día cada semana, y todo es de origen único y Comercio Justo. Leche de avena, almendra y soja disponible. La leche se espuma perfectamente, es sedosa y suave. El caballero que posee el café es encantador y hace el café con tanto cuidado.
