The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Watford East of England

Ordered on their new self service checkout. We ordered poached egg on toast, and porridge with honey as well as two pots of tea. The restaurant wasn’t busy at all, maybe 8 tables and us, yet we still waited almost 20 minutes before the food came out. (You sort out the drinks yourself) The food was literally dropped on the table and went to leave. My partner asked if he could have sauce and a couple of sachets were almost thrown at him. The porridge had no honey, so I asked the staff member who said it was already in the bowl. It wasn’t, so I went to the counter and asked for it. The man didn’t even know where the honey was kept. When I got back to the table my partner was eating his poached eggs. They were so overdone it looked like they had put hard boiled eggs minus the shells on his toast. It was obviously understaffed but surely anyone can poach a couple of eggs? The whole point of the self service is that you sit down and your meal is brought to you. Great in theory - terrible in practice.

I liked the food, service and atmosphere. It's an open kitchen and you can see how the food was prepared. You will have your free sandwich in your first order. The coffee is good, sandwich is perfect for me. The staff were friendly. Thank you!

Ordered a cheese burger. This did take some time to arrive from ordering. The burger was pathetic, cheese slice looked like it had been cut with a laser and was congealed on the burger ( was on life support ), which tasted weird, and I wonder if it was some plant based effort. The chips came in a small wire basket, and would just about fill your palm. The seating is canteen / school hall style and not at all welcoming. There was a guy sweeping the floor who looked utterly uninterested in what he was doing, coupled with a negative atmosphere it was all a bit solemn ! Potential for a truly unique meet up diner / hang out experience is gone.
