The best restaurants in Clissold Hackney London

Staff could not have been more accommodating and friendly. Ordered 11 Gozleme for takeaway and everyone enjoyed (some of us trying this dish first time) very filling and fair price for what we had. Thank you so much

Parents had a wonderful stay at the Rose & Crown. Beautiful newly renovated rooms with plenty of space right above the pub. Great when you come back after a day full of London sightseeing and can just relax and unwind over a pint before going to bed. Really feels like a second home thanks to lovely Kate and her team. Location is fantastic too with several buses going straight into town - or just spend your day exploring N16 and stay in the park or hang out in Church Street or walk up to the water reservoirs. We'll definitely come back!

So this Nando’s used to be great and then we came across Alda or Alsa Elsa I think her name was. Here is what happened, strap in! I normally order my food from deliveroo and because they don’t do the wild herb sauce in sachets any more and they only have them in the bottles. I usually call ahead and ask them to put it into a small pot and send it with my order. Every single time the staff are more than happy to do so and it’s greatly appreciated. So Elsa lads or Alsa, not quite sure what her name was, on this occasion says that it’s company policy not to do this. So considering every colleague of hers over the last year or so has been more than happy to do so to keep customers happy to do so and give fantastic customer service and satisfaction, she seems to think that it’s “company policy” not to do so. She subsequently told me that she was the manager. This is a perfect example of when you give the wrong person the wrong job … I got an extreme whiff of the power has gone to her head. I really wanted to say to her “you are a manager at Nando’s you are not a chairwoman at a large global organisation, calm down”. However I kept it polite and professional. I think some retraining here is urgently required.

Fell in love with this place! Amazing customer service very nice scenery , food was amazing everything is homemade! Definitely recommended

Amazing place, service and food :) I can really recommend this lovely place.. we will definitely come back for another visit soon

Nice cakes but the most miserable staff ever. Popping in for some bread made me feel depressed. Staff had glum faces, no smiles and a mumbled thanks. If the staff were pleasant it would be an amazing place. Is it a French thing?

Hired the downstairs room for a leaving party and it was amazing! Such a perfect night with all of my friend’s!! Couldn’t recommend this place anymore. Was allowed to go early to decorate, could plug my own music in and we had access to our own bar! Everyone had the best time! Lovely staff too 😊 and the top it all off the drinks were a great price!! If you’re having a party you NEED to book this place.

Las envolturas de falafel son increíbles, ¡lo recomendaría si estás en Stoke Newington! Realmente asequible también

Wow, what a transformation. We used to only come here if it was raining as it is a fantastic building but the service was so bad. The coffee is still the worst in SN. but you're not waiting 30 minutes for it and the staff are now some of the best in SN. The new manager is lovely and friendly and the staff are a ton better. The salmon bagel and vegan breakfast will now be a regular stop, even if we'll be bringing Finks coffee with us 😬 . So happy this is back on our radar again 👍

El "Fox reformada" está en el corazón de la bulliciosa Stoke Newington Church Street. He conocido el pequeño pub durante muchos años.

The doner kebab, chicken burger and chips were incredible and the lady and gent were more than lovely! I’d happily just go back to talk to them and luckily amazing food comes alongside that!

I visited Ribbons and Taylor Cafe today and have to say I was extremely disappointed by the experience. Priced a little cheaper than other cafes in the vicinity I had my reservations about the quality from the outset. Though this shouldn't necessarily have been an issue, you always wonder why the cheap eateries are, well, cheap. As it turns out it actually wasn’t that cheap. It was still a hefty £12.50 for an all-day breakfast. Prices in the Stokey can range from £10.50 up to 17 quid. I know, it's excessive! Anyhow, I shoved my doubts to one side and thought I'd give it a go as part of my staycation cafe tour. However, it wasn't long before I kind of wished I hadn't. The staff were friendly enough and though the front of the cafe was sparsely populated, the garden was pleasantly people, not too busy, well shaded and spacious. My orange juice arrived in a hefty Hoxton-style jar-jug and tasted much like a smoothie not a freshly squeezed juice. This seems to be a thing now, but what is wrong with old fashioned juicing. I really don't want my juice to have the texture of a frothy coffee. I just want juice. I was so thirsty though, I just drank it up through a soon-to-be soggy hard paper straw! The food soon followed. Too soon. Another bad sign! And yes, as suspected the whole thing had been either microwaved or double fried as the fried egg was solid, the bacon overdone and discoloured, the portobello mushroom pancake flat and cold, the beans, tomatoes and Cumberland sausage tepid & tasteless and the hash browns soggy. And, sin of all sins, the beautiful sourdough bread, which was probably the only quality ingredient on the plate, had been fried - in cheap tasting oil at that! Luckily for the staff I wasn’t in feisty mood and I was too hungry to send it back, but I actually left food on my plate, which is absolutely uncharacteristic for me. As I was on my laptop for a while after I ate (the Wi-Fi only works indoors incidentally – so I had to relocate), I chose not to complain and thought I would relay my commentary to staff when I left. However, having had to later decline the white wine offering, which consisted only of cheap Chardonnay, I requested a cider instead. I can only assume someone went out to buy it from the local offy as it took such a long time to arrive. When I eventually went to the till to pay, the staff could not be supply me with an itemised bill. They showed me the order chitty instead where I saw I’d been charged £6.50 for a fairly basic can of cider. I queried this and was told I had been charged the price of a bottled beer. Exhausted as I was with the experience at this point and presented with a £26.50 bill for the aforementioned food and drink plus a coffee, I thought I'd best email the proprietors with my thoughts on things prior to posting a review which I now felt obliged to do. They have no email listed online however. Hmmmmm! I’m keen therefore to hear what everyone else’s experience has been of the café. Maybe I visited on a bad day? Ultimately I figured I should have listened to my instinct. If there is no one eating in a place there is generally a very good reason why! Unfortunately Ribbons and Taylor won’t be getting any repeat visits form me, but hopefully they sharpen up their offering by the time you consider paying them a visit.

Ooh Lou Lou hizo nuestros pasteles de boda en junio del año pasado: tuvimos tres en total, todos sin gluten y totalmente deliciosos. Esperaba algunas sobras pero no había una sola migaja: todos los invitados estaban entusiasmados con ellas. Los chicos fueron muy serviciales prestándonos pasteles también. Mi esposo nos consiguió otro pastel de novia para nuestro primer aniversario y no me da vergüenza decir que nos burlamos del lote. ¡Delicioso!

Me encanta este lugar tanto! ! Tienen una hermosa cafetería en el piso principal, con un delicioso café, todo tipo de té y pasteles recién hechos. ¡En la planta baja tienen una tienda donde puedes comprar de todo, desde muebles hasta joyería y plantas! Una forma tan encantadora de pasar una mañana perezosa o una tarde. ¡Tienes que ir!

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.
