Been coming here for years. Their crispy battered dishes are always spot on, never soggy. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.

The kunafah was the star for me. Still warm, crispy on top and not overly sweet. The areeka was nice too, a bit like a sticky toffee pudding but different. Just stopped in for dessert and left happy.

The toasted sourdough sandwiches are a solid choice. They&#39;re tasty and the portion is decent for the price. I&#39;d say it&#39;s pretty good value for what you get.

Decent portions for the price. The menu has a good mix of classics and some more unique Thai options.

Lovely little spot for a cuppa. The pot of tea was generous, easily two cups. Toast and jam was fine, but the portion felt a bit small for the price. Saw some tempting cakes on the counter though.

The BLT was really good even as takeaway. The bacon was crispy, the lettuce fresh, and the bread held up well. They wrote a little note on my orange juice lid, which was a nice touch.

Stumbled into this place inside Brew York. The bao buns were huge and seriously flavourful. Had a couple with one of their own beers. Solid combo for a casual bite.

Stopped by for lunch, got the chicken tagine and a gyros. The tagine portion was huge, honestly could have shared it. Gyros was decent size too. Ended up taking half the tagine home, plus a fruit crumble for later. Felt like I got two meals for the price of one.

Stopped in after a riverside walk. Got a cappuccino and a couple of their croissants. Coffee was solid, and the pastries were fresh. Nice little spot for a quick pick-me-up.

Lovely spot by the old Roman walls. The coffee was spot on, and their wine list had a few nice surprises to go with the cakes.

The gravy came on the side, which I really liked. My chips stayed perfectly crisp right to the last bite. A small thing, but it shows they&#39;re thinking about the food.

Stumbled upon this family-run spot. Seeing them eating their own food was a good sign. The meal was fresh and came out fast.

Been coming here for years. Their shakshuka is the one thing I always get. Perfectly cooked eggs, rich tomato sauce, just hits the spot every single time.

The fish was clearly cooked fresh to order, which I really appreciate. The batter had a nice crisp to it. I went for the lunch special, and the portion was quite generous for the price. A solid choice if you&#39;re looking for something freshly prepared.

As a coeliac, finding a chippy with proper gluten-free batter is a game changer. Their fish was spot on, crispy and not greasy at all. The curry sauce was the real star though &ndash; thick and flavourful, not just an afterthought. Made my day.

A lovely, cozy spot. The chicken dish was exceptional - the meat was so fresh and perfectly cooked. A nice change for a Friday.

Popped in for a late breakfast. The scrambled eggs with salmon on sourdough really stood out &ndash; the eggs were so soft and the salmon tasted incredibly fresh. That&#39;s exactly what I look for. The coffee was good too. There was a bit of a wait, but I didn&#39;t mind.

Staff were super friendly, made us feel right at home. They even sang happy birthday for my cousin, which was a nice surprise. Just a really warm vibe here.

Food is solid, staff are friendly and efficient. My go-to for a reliable business lunch. Portions are decent for the price.

Orla was so attentive despite the Black Friday rush. My negroni was just right, not too sweet. The whole vibe felt calm even with the crowd.

Decent fish and chips, and the portions are generous for the price. The seating is a bit cramped, but it&#39;s a handy spot in the centre.

This little takeaway spot is just right for a quick bite on the go. I love that the pies are made fresh all day long&mdash;caught a warm one straight from the oven. The line moves fast, too.

The veggie breakfast is a solid choice for a weekend brunch with friends. They open early, which is handy!

The cheese and bacon rolls here are a real treat. Just had one fresh from the oven, the cheese was perfectly melted and gooey. A bit on the small side for the price, but honestly, I&#39;d probably get another.

The lamb kebabs are pretty good, especially with the chilli sauce. A solid choice for a late bite. It&#39;s a bit loud inside, but fine for a quick meal.

The coffee was good, strong and not bitter. Sat by the river, the view of the old viaduct was nice. Just a decent spot to have a cup and watch the water.
