London cafe destination in Edgware

“We have visited this place now like several times and each and every-time the food was lovely. It’s the place to go if your around Edgware. Even the staff and everyone are really nice and helpful. Keep up the good work. Food is really tasty.!”

“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.”

“Best cafe in burnt oak highly recommended staff r polite and friendly and food is top”

“Service great, food was nice, we had starters and mains, bit will be returning at another date for pudding. Our server(Amber) was very good at suggesting drinks and food. Nice atmosphere.”

“Great local independent cafe (outdoor seating only). Food is homemade and the ice cream is great! The owner always has a smile and a kind word. This place is a great addition to the community.”

“It was a great hotel. I don't know why people complaining about this hotel. It was really easy to check in and your free to go and comeback with a password. The rooms are small but perfect. Only thing of service. When people stay longer cann you make the rooms clean after maybe 3 days or something. It's a small tip!! Maybe see you next time.”

“A kiosk cafe in my park, with very friendly owners.”

“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.”

“Really great little place this. I was walking past on a Saturday morning, noticed this place, popped in. Fantastically decorated inside & out, nice open front and good coffee, the food looked good even though I didn't have any myself, will definitely be coming here again for sure.”

“Have rented with Cricklewood for over 10 years easy to work with staff. Cabs run well & in decent condition plus good size garage to work on cabs”

“Been ordering from this place for a while now. Normally from uber. This time we went In and sat down to eat. I Normally get the omelette bap. Reading the menu found out they do alot of inidan dishes. Can't wait to go back and try them. Was asked how spicy I like my bap found that to be the key. As before once I ordered from uber it came too spicy. I can handle my heat but my god that day I cried. But over all great place to grab a sandwich and odd indian dishes. Bombay sandwich was really tasty too. Must visit place gotta say”

“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!”

“Lovely Bar with a really nice atmosphere. Good selection of drinks, a diverse and welcoming crowd. Edit- still the best”

“Good food, good quality and excellent service. Staff are always very friendly.”

“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.”

“amazing little cafe serving great coffee and pastries. The staff is also so friendly, highly recommend!”

“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!”

“Tasty, great value, friendly service. Just what you need at 7am on a Sunday after driving from Nottingham”

“Great service here, Ashraf ,flora,reem and mo make the best coffee, food is also very good ,always a nice friendly atmosphere,definitely recommend.”

“Food wasn't bad at all nice flavours. Service was a bit slow even on a quiet evening. Nice venue and decor is warm and inviting. Like to go again when it is busy to sample the atmosphere”

“Always nice to stop for a nice soya mocha and puppychino when I am out with the boys. Glad they not only let dogs in but even have a drink for them too. I love telling the staff my name is Costa when they ask. Then let them shout out Costa a few times before I get my drink from starbucks with Costa written on the cup. Childish, I know.”

“Good Irish pub and so friendly and have lots of music at the weekends a good place to go and enjoy yourself staff are always so helpful and a good price for your drinks”
