The best restaurants in Bromley-by-Bow Tower Hamlets London

Wow, what a great neighbourhood cafe in Bow - fabulous quality coffee - tried both the flat white and cappucino - really good. Such a friendly and relaxed place, decided to try their avo toast .... really great too. Definitely recommend!

Absolutely fantastic food, been here a few times and the food is always on point. Great quality food and surprisingly cheap too. The seating area is decent and they have a clean toilet. I recommend the donner, naga wings and grilled chicken.

Not an easy place to find (at the back of an industrial estate, through a locked door, down a corridor and up some stairs) but well worth the effort. The food is amazing. Not fancy, but perfectly executed. And most importantly, delicious. The staff are friendly, relaxed and efficient. Wine list is varied with a good range of prices. We'll be back!

Lovely space virtually opposite the Nunnery Gallery. Great coffee and nice atmosphere in a beautiful old building

Just around the corner from my office so, a great little cafe to grab breakfast or lunch....the roast beef sandwich is always beautifully done and the staff are just warm, lovely and good fun

I've been going to this shop regularly for coffee and bread since it opened. As it's my daily stop on the way home. The food and coffee was ok and I preferred its décor. Price slightly expensive. I would like to mention the different attitudes of the two male staffs. Twice in this year I've walked past this shop after getting off the DLR ,I want use toilet and asked if I could use it . and one time a male staff told to me, "why not." He was very polite and friendly, and I'm sure he hasn't served me many times before, so maybe he's new and he won't remember that I'm a regular customer. On another time, I asked a tall male staff, who had been the one who received most of my purchases, he just told me that it only for customers. Makes me feel a little cold, after all these years of services he doesn't even remember regular customers. Of course I didn't buy anything first that time and he wasn't obliged to let me use. I will come back to this store buy coffee and food , but only because it is convinced .

Abbiamo prenotato un afternoon tea in famiglia per sei persone. Era un sabato pomeriggio. Il locale è molto caratteristico in una zona raggiungibile comodamente con la Dockland Light Railways. Personale molto cordiale. Tavola ben preparata. Afternoon tea abbondante e di buona qualità sia nel dolce che nel salato. Prezzi adeguati. Abbiamo potuto portare via gli avanzi che ci sono serviti per un' ottima colazione. Per noi esperienza veramente gradevole.

Booked a table for 4 to eat via the website to enjoy my husbands birthday as a trip down memory lane. We lived in Fern st. from 1982-1992 so wanted to return after visiting the ABBA Voyager evening. Wish we hadn't. No table reserved - Kitchen closed so no food & grumpy manager when Spurs were denied a goal in injury time as large football screen dominated the pub. We won't be back

Absolutely fabulous coffee . Staff are really friendly , Itwas a great place for me to sit and work . Very clean..... .....

Pathetic restaurant. I ordered, the order never got delivered. The restaurant never picked my 1000 calls and never returned them. Pathetic pathetic pathetic………………..

A proper boozer in an area where proper boozers are rare these days. Great staff.

Dived in out off the rain with two mates. Just happened to be in Bow. Didn’t notice the outside much but was shocked to find what looked like an Edwardian pub inside. Greeted by two guys having a beer. Had a couple of pints and had to go. Shame. Very friendly atmosphere, staff and clientele. Good choice of drinks. Good music not to load so you could still talk to one and other. Looked it up later and wish we had stayed to eat. I like the look of the menu. Will be returning next time I’m in the area. Wish I had a local like this. All the best.

Estoy de acuerdo con todas las críticas positivas aquí. La comida es excelente. Los favores son ricos y llenos y todo se cocina a la perfección. Quiero dar un pequeño consejo sobre cómo encontrarlo. Salga de Bromley en el tubo de Bow y gire a la derecha (en dirección a Bow School). Gire a la derecha en Devas Street. Luego tome la primera carretera principal a la izquierda en Empson Street. Camina por esta calle hasta que se doble en una esquina. En esa esquina, justo en frente de ti, verás una pequeña zona industrial. Entra. Hay un café dinky llamado Puertas a tu derecha, pero sigue moviéndote a tu izquierda. Verás una señal para ApparelTasker. Bajo eso hay una señal para Polentina. Entra por la puerta y sube un vuelo. El restaurante está en la parte superior a su derecha. Más fácil de lo que parece, y vale la pena el viaje.

Extremely long wait. Bought a sandwich and had to wait 20mins!!! At 11am on a week day. That’s not good. Was late to work. Sandwiches are expensive. Mine was put vertically in a bag. when I got to work it all fell apart, had to scrap it all over the box! Absolute disaster. Feel silly trading that service to a much better place nearby with a superior service and food.

Ordered takeaway through UBER as got back home from a weekaway. The chips were soggy and burgers not tasty. Should have just popped in and grabbed the food myself as they are usually very good. Oh well lesson learnt!
