Top 30 Best Local sourced ingredients in Edgware

“Mmmm shashlik! Tender, spicy but not hot spicy......make your mouth water spicy. Charcoal chicken wings. Not the skinny flappy bit but,the shoulder and bicep. A tiny sprinkle of fresh lemon juice drizzled into the munchable, tender chicken. The starter dip things.... FANTASTIC Turkish naan. Light and fluffy with a good outside crunch, dipped into fresh proper humus. A garlicy yoghurt dip thing. Grilled onion quarters in a pomegranate sauce. A fresh and tangy salad with tomatoes, cos lettuce, cucumber, onion. Often Turkish salads that I've had have just been sprinkled with vinegar which, can make them slightly bland. Not so Charcoal's salad dressing. Imagine a charcoaled meat selection served on a bed of rice with a chips border and a sort of thin, round flatbread covering to keep the aroma and heat contained. Lamb shish in very small,succulent cubes on wooden skewers. The charcoal chicken wings, shashlik, thin strips of doner.thick, tender lamb chunks. Add a glass of Turkish red wine (or three). Maybe some Turkish tea with something sweet for those of us who like the slightest perspiration invoked by overeating. Yes, they do takeaway. Yes they have all sorts of fizzy drinks. But, they are not your usual Turkish takeaway. This place is well worth a sit-down for an hour or so and serious, professional eating. Opposite Lidl so maybe, if you do some shopping in Lidl - you could park there. Personally, I think it's worth taking the Northern line and walking from Edgware statation. A couple of outside tables for those that need a quick cigarette or an afternoon cup of coffee and a baklava. I was introduced by a friend who is Turkish and himself a retired restaurateur. In the 20 plus years I have known him - he has always steered me to places that are good quality and not overpriced. This isn't a place with fancy carpets and bow tie waiters. It's like a mum n dad place who care and concentrate on flavour.”

“Awesome experience as usual Service was good and food was even better! I look forward to the continued growth and seeing more slam burgers open up. Very good to know that all their stores are halaal. The new store is so well kitted out. The branding is great, the store is very clean and they even have a little kids play area. I would highly recommend and will go back.”

“Amazing shop. This place has everything and the staff are so friendly. Whenever I come in here, they treat me like family. The place is very clean and always fully stocked. Getting your oyster topped up here is the fastest thing in the world beating the machines twice. There is a wide selection of alcohol and sweets available as well! They even have American crisps Takis!”

“I have to say, I enjoyed every single bite of the pizza in Pizza Di Loro. I had a pizza of the house, with a couple of "ichnuso" beers. Considering the quality, the price is reasonable. Ideal for those who want a romantic night out. There was also plenty of room for bigger groups.”

“Me and my partner had a lovely experience here. The best coffee we’ve had in a long time and the bakery section was lovely and very fresh.”

“Exceptional food and customer service, the best Lebanese food I've had on Edgeware Road, and I've tried almost all of them. Give them a try, it was incredible”

“I often eat at canons cafe with my wife and family members, it can be difficult finding a really good cafe in the local area which offers a warm, friendly service, accompanied with an excellent choice of food on the menu, including 'specials of the day'. Without hesitation, I can honestly say canons ticks all the right boxes and I would not hesitate in recommending! The owner is a lovely gentleman and all his staff members are very welcoming and friendly offering prompt service without lengthy delays waiting for your food.. such a fantastic cafe!”

“Best Halal burgers in London! I have been patiently waiting for this restaurant to open for quite a long time and finally managed to go there with the family over weekend. Great owner, amazing staff and comfortable spectacular seating interior. Food was out of this world - taste, texture and presentation took the whole dining experience to another level. They serve a range of delicious burgers, wings, tenders, shakes and desserts. Their cute little sliders were just perfect for my little children. InshAllah will be visiting Shrunk more often. 5 Stars!”

“Best oyster omelet I've had since Shilin Night Market in Taipei. Beef Bao was also excellent.”

“I had morning coffee and toast at this lovely cafe on Edgeware Road while my husband was attending an appointment nearby. It was so good I took him back there for lunch! The menu is varied. The food is excellent, plentiful and inexpensive. I had chicken kebab with rice, salad and pitta and my husband had a fry up. Delicious. The chatter was lively between the customers and between customers and staff. As soon as you walked in you felt welcome. I just wish they had a cafe round the corner from me.”

“I recommend this supermarket to everyone. All the greens are fresh as well as the fruit. All the staff are friendly. Great customer service.”

“I’m a regular customer and food is always good! Their bread is just the best! It’s also so cheap compared to other similar restaurants.”

“Never knew such a gem existed in Queensbury. I cannot handle spicy food, but their food had so much flavour, I did not even notice the spice. The staff are friendly and the service is pretty good. I would definitely would recommend this place.”

“IT WAS SO DELICIOUS. Absolutely great food, great yougurt, very nice staff. You get greeted by some starter food that was fantastic, then staff comes for your order. It was a pleasant surprise some of the staff were or knew romanian. Id come here every time I visit London.”

“It was an wonderful experience. The food is delicious and waitress are kind and polite. Good price on the menu as well. 100% I'll recommend this little restaurant for someone that would like to enjoy a delicious dinner or a small party with family as I did. Thank you!”

“The Dj played such amazing music played different genres and it was very international which was unique the food was really nice and abood and the lady service was great, will definitely be visiting again”

“This place is my favorite choice for BBQ platter. It isnt smokey and this will not make you smell. The quality of the meat was superb esp the beef. Japchae was good but not exceptionally good. I tasted better ones than this. Seafood bibimbap was very tasty so as the beef. Not quite sure with the chicken. The desserts are nice. It was worth a try at least once. Over-all, the side presentation was lovely, it has good variety and flavor. It is a bit pricey though but real good! Oh, drinks and costumer service were exceptional!”

“As we entered inside they served us with salad, humus/yoghurt dip with naan and Lentil soup on the house. We then ordered the kebab platter. At the end they provided Turkish kawa tea and baklava on the house. Waiter was friendly and warm. Not much of a wait either for food to be served approx 5 mins.”

“Called up the cafe to ask if I could change something on the deliveroo sharing platter for 2, no trouble at all and the lady on the phone was polite (the most polite I’ve ever spoken too from a cafe) changing was no trouble. The food arrived piping hot, fresh, such a generous amount that it fed our daughter too. Will 1000% reccomend and order again, couldn’t even tell it was delivered was like eating in. Best cafe in the area!! *****”

“This place never fails! Top service. Authentic Food. The vibe is just Great here. Perfect for a date night! Definitely would come back:)”

“Food is restaurant standard at a low budget price. Would highly recommend you visit if you are in the area very cost effective and affordable but does not compromise on quality.”

“Wow!! Struggled to work out what we wanted for dinner take out tonight as fridge I'd empty ahead for weekly supermarket delivery tomorrow and my partner said I would kebab style meal so I said mentioned a place in Edgware but I couldn't get the spelling right for the delivery app and remember you have recently refurbished and opened again so I said how about here and Wow, the chicken/lamb shish kebabs with rice and a little bit of salad was more than enough. Salad wasn't finished and unfortunately we can't touch our 2 pizza sized portions of bread. Definitely order again either take out or dine in. Delivery was on time too. Fab work, Mill Hill Kitchen.”

“One of the nicest cafe in London. Located just at the borders of Edware Road and Maida Vale. Above the canal. Giving you the impression you have travelled to Venice. Beautiful view of the canal from the bridge, where its located. Great selection of oven baked Pizzas, or English Breakfast. Coffees, teas. Per person is about £15-£20, but worth every penny of it. Regardless how often we have been to this place, we always come back. Staff always friendly and with a smile. See you soon”

“I've been to Pizza Garden a few times now and I've never been disappointed. The pizzas are always cooked perfectly and the ingredients are fresh and delicious. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend Pizza Garden to anyone looking for a great kosher pizza in London. Here are some of the things I like about Pizza Garden: The pizzas are made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The pizzas are cooked in a wood-fired oven, which gives them a delicious flavor. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The prices are very reasonable.”

“A very vibrant place. I was there on a Saturday evening. They offered me a bigger table as it was quite crowded, with the agreement that I will leave in an hour or so, agreeable given the time I had visited. Even through the crowd the people kept checking in if everything was okay and if I needed anything. Chicken 65 (Saucy) was really good. Although the Chicken Tikka was a bit different from my expectations, but it was good. Personally for me it did not suit. Good music, excellent staff and very good service. Will visit again soon to try out their other dishes. Thank you Flavours.”

“At first, I thought it was an average Syrian restaurant. The staff welcomed me when I arrived with a free aromatic Arabic coffee. I ordered Fatoosh salad and Arayes for starter, then an Arabic Chicken Shawarma for the main. The dishes were generous, super delicious, perfectly cooked and presented! I will be visiting the store very soon to try the other items from the menu. I love it…..”

“Came in on a lovely Sunday afternoon and I could clearly tell that the people working there were understaffed. I ordered fish and chippy for myself and my family and I noticed that there were a lot of people also waiting to be served. We all got our meal on time, which was lovely and what what impressed me the most was the service of the staff and in particular Robert. He was so nice and understanding even though there must have been immense pressure to continue his service. Please Morrisons make sure you take care of him and his staff. Will come back! 11/10 service.”
