Cozy in Hounslow

“An absolutely excellent place for a meal before a flight. Great service, great food. We had a pastrami sandwich and mac & cheese. Mac & cheese was just right; it was not swimming in cheese. The sandwich bread was nicely toasted and all the ingredients were fresh and delicious. Even their chips were good.”

“So happy we went there, excellent Goan food. Croquettes, choris pao and xacuti were on point. Portions could be a little better. Spices etc. all come in from goa, so very authentic. Great atmosphere. Got to speak Konkani again, enjoyed it ❤️”

“Lovely pub. The bar staff were friendly. The garden us absolutely gorgeous. We came for the Thai food and wasn't disappointed. It was extremely yummy. Large portions. Great value. Would recommend. I will definitely be going back.”

“Typical full english breakfast, verry nice, friendly happy Staff. I was there 3 Times when stayed in ibis hotel. Beakfast in Hounslow central, only there.”

“The customer service is excellent. The taste of toblerone latte is incredible. Loved the taste and it makes you feel festive season in the cold winter weather. Perfect festive hot drink. They also have lots of other options for hot drinks. The price is bit expensive, but it's worth having the drink.”

“Absolutely fantastic English pub in the heart of Hounslow. Warm, with a great selection of beers on tap and served from a beautiful wooden bar and a wonderful atmosphere. Food is reasonably priced, generous in portions and tasty. Their sunday roast in particular was freshly made and well worth the price and a small wait. Would highly recommend.”

“I love this pub! It's a local boozer and not a tourist trap but if you are a tourist staying in the local area I would recommend dropping in and meeting some locals. I used to live around here and every time I’m back in the area I’ll pop in for a few pints and food. It really has great prices on UK ales, great cask ales and smaller brewery ales too and usually a varied range of them on tap. I’d likely bet they have some of the best prices in London for good drinks. Also note this pub is in the good beer guide and cask marque certified. Food has been very good to excellent and they get it out quickly. Breakfast here is also very good and well priced with pretty much unlimited coffee for only £1.20. I will add the staff have always been very nice and generally attentive. I’ve been coming here off and on since the early ‘90’s when it opened. I totally would recommend this local pub.”

“My favourite place for a grilled chicken burger ! I’ve been eating in a lot of places but the grilled burger that these guys do is second to none ! 5£ for a meal ! Cheap enough as the meal size is big enough to keep you going .”

“Love this place. Nice staff, abundance of important food and good offers!”

“It was only about 5 mins walk from Hounslow Central Station. The room was tiny but clean and the entire guest house smelling great! Bathroom was clean and has all the essentials. Staff was friendly and very accommodating. Very good impression and stay overall.”

“My wife and I stopped by while we were waiting for our connecting flight. Food is decent but our waitress Louritta was world class! She really made us feel like home. Love her service. Thank you! Really made our short stop more enjoyable!”

“Bukhara Restaurant's food is amazing and also service. Owner is really nice, they treat people with care and respect, We have been there multiple times and also celebrated Bdays, Food and decoration was great and also service was quick with care! And also ordered home delivery many times, food quantity and quality good and also delivery was on time! We love Bukhara :)”

“Very good food. Love the chicken shish with rice. Good lamb kofte and the grilled chicken burger is great. Good choice on menu. Would be good if they could do a smaller portion of chicken wings as well for a lower price.”

“Mama’s Restaurant is always my 1st choice for authentic Nepali fast food & variety of mouthwatering dishes. Food served is tasty, delicious in nice ambience with soft Nepali music. Definitely refer you all to visit here. I love to come back again with friendly staff & hospitality.”

“Quick service, nice coffee, fresh pastries and friendly barista.”

“Nice cafe. Reasonable prices Friendly staff. Lovely breakfast.”

“Lovely calm welcoming atrium. Just perfect after a stressful day. The room was spotlessly clean with the basic. We ate in the Thyme restaurant which was a pleasant ding experience. Our waiter Nico was very friendly and efficient. The food was delicious and very good value for money. Breakfast the following morning was also very good. Would recommend to friends.”

“What can I say about this lounge… well when compared to other lounges, even in other parts of Heathrow, it’s not that great. It can’t hold a candle to the Cathay or Qantas lounge in T3, It’s a little dated and I wouldn’t say it’s overly luxurious. However the main selling point of this lounge is that it is not a pay to use lounge and the connectivity of the First Wing in general. It’s the best lounge in T5 and it beats any lounge that isn’t ab airline status lounge . Firstly you can only get access if you are BA Gold or OneWorld equivalent (OneWorld Emerald) or you are flying first class. However if you are flying first you get access to the Concorde Room so wouldn’t use this lounge anyway. The access to the lounge is its main selling point as you go to the separate “First Wing” that has its own check in desks and security, and after security you walk down a short corridor and right into the lounge. This is fantastic as it means you come directly into the lounge without a long walk through the general terminal area. The size of the lounge is pretty big but with only a few drink stations positioned apart from the main food and beverage area. Plenty of seats in various configurations and a few work places. Throughout the pandemic, for food and beverage it was order only through barcode and phone, and at the time writing this is still available but there is a small, ever growing buffet coming back. This phone ordering was actually quite good but the selection could vary. Currently the buffet at breakfast has a decent selection of hot English breakfast, as well as fruit, pastries, cereal and other cold items. There are a few juices available and three coffee machines, that can get quite crowded during peak times. The food selection is good but it’s nothing to shout about, however it is recovering and getting better as time goes on. In terms of seating the furniture is quite old and tired but comfortable enough. It would be good if there was more charging points but if you are really desperate you will find one. I enjoy the Concorde terrace at the end of the lounge as it is usually quieter and offers runway views as well as feels much more open. The staff are always hard working and friendly and keep the lounge generally clean. As is the case with any lounge, how busy it gets really really affects the experience. When it’s busy it’s unpleasant but when empty (very very early in the morning) it can be quite nice. The lounge will fill up quite quickly after opening and usually there is a queue waiting to get in. But toilet facilities are however appalling. While located within the lounge, they are quite dated and usually have a queue of people waiting to get in the 6 or so cubicles available. This is just not good enough for a first class lounge. They are individual stalls which is nice and are generally quite clean but in major need of an upgrade and in need of more! All in all the major selling point of this lounge is its position in relation to the terminal and your route from taxi to plane. It very nice to have you’re own private section of the terminal which usually guarantees no check-in and security queues, and a very short walk from there to a comfy chair and coffee in the lounge. The facilities could use a face lift and if they continue improvement on the food section it will be good but all in all, to even be able to use this lounge you have to travel a lot. This means though you might be a discerning customer when it comes to airline lounges, you will use this place frequently and grow to like it a little bit. You will appreciate its layout in relation to the terminal and your travel experience, you will get to know it’s quirks, it’s up and downs and it will become like a mini home from home…”

“So first off the food is delicious, so nice to actually have breakfast before a flight! Shout out to the staff who were dealing with an incredibly busy morning, queue out the door, yet handled everything quickly, efficiently and with a smile. Extra shout out to our waitress Inga who was just a delight- thanks so much!”

“Really good food, a nice interior and polite staff. I have tried fish curry Srilankan style and Srilankan mutton curry. They were both delicious.”

“This was our first foray into Indian food, and the cashier was extremely helpful giving us suggestions on what to order. Everything was so delicious! Their prices are great, too!”

“Delicious and excellent service. One of us accidentally dropped off the biryani chicken rice, the staff immediately give us another new one. We wanted to pay him again but rejected by him. We feel so touch by his kindness. More important is the food is very delicious. We also order lamb biryani. Recommend more people to try out.”

“I really liked the food here! It was great quality and I really enjoyed the taste of it.”

“Best takeaway I’ve had in years can’t fault anything. Crispy beef is fabulous and still crispy when delivered. Brilliant portion sizes too I fed two children and still had leftovers on one main!! Really friendly from the lady who took the order to delivery driver and arrived within estimated time given. We will definitely be regular customers here!! Compliments to he chef and the staff”

“It's my overall favourite coffee shop location of all the Heathrow terminals”

“The greatest cafe, great food and coffee, a great friendly team and given the location, good prices.”

“Georgous desserts and the price is on par with any dessert establishment. This one is the only place in the local are which serves this menu. Staff very warm and friendly. My little one enjoyed her pink cake which was surprising as she hates cake. Spied some breakfast orders and we will be back to try it at some point. A gem in Heston.”

“Very friendly and professional staff with good quality meals and coffees. Definitely recommended to everyone. 10/10 overall.”

“The building is charming and historic, the staff was friendly, humorous and helpful! The food was reasonably priced and quite good (particularly the batter they fried most things in), the ciders and beers on tap were excellent and the experience was great for me and five others! Give it a go, cheers!”
