The best restaurants in Wood Street Waltham Forest London

Thanks a million to all at Made in Portugal, for the best barbecued late lunch I´ve ever eaten, and the most amazingly fresh, flavour packed wonderfully grilled sardines I´ve had outside of Lisboa! The small jug of crisp white wine, black beans, salad & chips I shared with my husband provided their perfect accompaniment. Andy & I thoroughly enjoyed our time with you yesterday, and will be back. Great atmosphere, lovely people doing everything with heart and warmth, fabulous food & ace value, what´s not to love, Cheers for everything, love Catherine

The Rebel Café is a hidden gem that perfectly marries the love of literature with the charm of a cozy coffee shop. From the moment you step through its door, you are enveloped by an atmosphere that feels both welcoming and magical. The café has delightful tempting treats, offering a variety of coffees and baked pastries. Despite its small size, the Rebel Café never feels cramped. Instead, it exudes a sense of coziness and intimacy that larger establishments often lack. Special mention must be made of Alice, the owner and heart of Café. Alice is warm, welcoming. Her passion for creating a space where people can connect over their shared love of books and coffee shines through in every detail of the café. Her personal touch and genuine care for her customers make your visit feel like coming home. In a world that often feels rushed and impersonal, The Rebel Café is a refreshing oasis of warmth, creativity, and community. It is more than just a place to grab a coffee; it is a haven for the soul. Highly recommended for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in a world of books and brews or grab a takeaway drink or book on their train journey.

Really good food. Two weeks running. Great taste, good portion. Spicy, tasty but not too hot..just right

Best Kebab in London. I also must say that the customer service is excellent. I always feel looked after.

I had the most incredible brunch at this cafe today. I’m still thinking about it late into the evening. You know when you can tell a chef has put so much care into selecting ingredients that compliment each other so well. Tomato relish and halloumi were a highlight and loved the addition of spring onions on the eggs. My only small complaint or recommendation would be my table had crumbles on it when I sat down so I think it would improve the experience if staff had wiped down the table before I sat. Will be coming again!

The best Italian I've had. Authentic and made with love. Would definitely recommend.

We had a fantastic lunch at Teras. Food is extremely tasty, cooked with love, and plentiful! Everything is cooked from scratch and you can taste the love. We will come back!

This was a great choice for a family meal as we got to try some awesome authentic dishes. I think my favourite was the falafel, chicken shawarma and tabouleh. Loved the service and huge thanks to the chef for the tasty food. ❤️

Heard good things about this place so thought I’d try it. Think it’s been hyped up a bit - the food wasn’t that great at all - not a lot of it for the price.

Este discreto café es una joya en todo el este de Londres: panadería recién hecha en las instalaciones como muchos cafés portugueses tradicionales: panaderías. La calidad es suprema y todo está recién salido del horno. Mucha variedad para elegir. No dejes que el exterior destartalado y agotado de las instalaciones te desanime: esta es una panadería de primera.

When I booked I said we had a dog and a baby needing a highchair and they were already waiting for us when we got to our table. The service was friendly, efficient and helpful and the food was just fantastic 👍 lovely lean lamb rump with such a tasty sauce; the pork belly was cooked to perfection - everyone was very happy 😃 we will definitely be back and recommend to others

Left leaflets on the floor all over walthamstow. Why would littering entice anyone to come to your restaurant?

Lovely little market place that's surprising bigger inside when you walk through. So many great folks from the community here too, genuinely glad I found this place. I always keep coming back to look for books, vinyl, coffee and antiques.

Went for my birthday last week. The food is always nice and the staff are enthusiastic. I do think the space could be improved with more segmentation and darker lighting it does feel a bit like a school hall and less intimate than it could be. But would not stop me returning again.
