They have a complete freezer full of Movenpick ice creams, make 'candy' milkshakes (Mars Bar milkshake anyone?) and their cakes are extremely scrummy. oh yes - and they make a bloomin' good cup of coffee!

Definitely recommend if you're looking for good Greek food in the area!

If you are looking for an evening of great Greek food, dancing, drink, and live music, look no further, this is your place. The food here is so good, you MUST come hungry, even better starving because they serve you about 5 courses here. Be sure to pace yourself! It's easy to fill yourself up on the tasty starters of gorgeous humous, aubergine, and various tasty seafood. Don't arrive early here. If you come before 10pm the place will seem dead. The live music on weekends doesn't start until about 11 and that's when the real party starts. Be sure to wear your dancing shoes as there is a good sized dance floor! Apollo is a diamond in the rough of Seven Sisters! Be sure to make a night of it!

By far THE best greek restaurant in LONDON. Great service…read morewarm and cozy place They are also offering 2 for 1 dinners which suprisingly they have not advertised yet.

We spotted the…read moreHidden Cave & Garden Restaurant because it looks really welcoming and certainly stands out from the establishments around it. I had the Hidden Cave Pasta which was a creamy pesto sauce with cherry tomatoes and haloumi. It was delicious. My partner had the Sautéed Mixed Seafood which was a very large plate of calamari, mussels prawns and salmon, served with vegetables and rice with a white wine, garlic and lemon juice sauce. In his own words, it was "outstanding". Our friends shared a selection of meze platters and starters which seemed to have very generous portions. The service was really good and both the waitress and manager helpful, efficient and fast. We were impressed with the prices (most main courses n the £7 to £12 range) and although we live nowhere near the area, we'd consider travelling back just for this restaurant. We were surprised to find that the restaurant is only newly opened and only discovered this when we tried to check in and couldn't find it. They seem to be off to a great start, with many tables filled and none of the teething problems you might expect from a newly opened place. The final touch on our meal was a complimentary vodka and blackcurrant cocktail. A lovely touch to a fabulous evening.

The Woodoven BBQ in South Woodford…read more If you want a relaxing meal outside of the hustle and bustle of the city of London, the Woodoven is the spot! Awesome atmosphere and friendly faces always gets my attention and dollar! Didn't know if it was going to be a typical BBQ spot or a place with an awesome flavor! I started with the bread and humus! Delicious! Humus; creamy with a cucumber and pickle flavor. Next I had an awesome bowl of "Garlic mushrooms", grilled and sauteed with an awesome savory taste! I will never forget! My final dish is the calzon with Italian sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, cheese and green peppers! It's probably too much food, but there's always takeout! Just know that you get Big bang for your buck! I chased it down with bottled water and a glass of rose wine! With love, Chef ElJai'

Used to be my local and I love it so much that even after we moved to another borough I wouldn't…read morelet the fact that they didn't deliver to our area keep me from enjoying their food - we drive there every now and again to get a takeaway. There is now another restaurant also called Wood Oven on George lane, closer to the station; same owners maybe, but a different, more upmarket looking vibe. The ambient is informal and noisy in a good, cheerful way; perhaps not the place for an intimate meal, but if you want to enjoy a lively evening you're in the right place. They don't take reservations, but the restaurant have enough seats so the turnover is quick and you won't have to wait ages. In the winter, avoid if possible the tables next to the door to the loos (by the way loos are located outside, at the back) to avoid drafts from people who were born in a barn and leave it wide open. All the ingredients are fresh, and the meat is cooked to perfection, never dry or overcooked. I often get falafel for starters, nice texture and really tasty. I love the lamb shish; I even managed to convert my mother who said she didn't like lamb. Do try the Wood Oven Special if you aren't sure of what to order; it combines lamb and chicken shish, kofta, lamb chops/ribs, chicken wings, rice and salad and serves (well) two people. The rice deserves special mention, SO fluffy and flavoursome. Staff is lovely, smiley and accommodating. Once we were politely asked if we could change tables in order to allow a family to combine two tables and sit together; we happily obliged and got a free extra dish as a treat. Sweet.

Basement Galley started off as a supper club at the basement of Tom Fothergill, and his flatmate,…read moreChef Alex Cooper's house. From there they moved on to a more unique approach, wanting more privacy in their house and got permission to create a fine dining experience in an old abandoned Victoria line underground train. The underground supper club is now taking place at the Pump Museum near St James Station Walthamstow where a 4 course dinner is served with a cocktail on arrival, a choice of a full bottle of red or white wine during the course of the meal and finishing the dinner with a glass of champagne. The menu changes monthly but they usually update it on their website if you want to know ahead. I was almost at doubt I was even on the right path when I was making my way to this supper club. The surroundings varied from residential to industrial with little signs that a cool establishment could exist anywhere nearby. But search in Basement Galley on Google and have it pinned am I assure you will find it okay. Staff were incredibly friendly and although the arrival time said 19:00, many arrived early to enjoy their cocktail. As soon as you see the train it almost immediately puts you in awe at how they managed to convert the carriage into a restaurant and make it look so fancy with the lanterns and candles lined with cutlery and wine glasses whilst giving you nostalgic memories of cramp busy journeys on the underground. It's a completely polar opposite feeling. Heritage tomatoes, bufalo, olive, Parmesan and thyme The title of the dish does not justify the creativity that went into it. Lovely array of different tomatoes adding vibrancy and colour to the dish and I thought it was very clever of them to use minced olives to season to the dish, adding complexity to its flavour as well as an interesting texture. The buffalo cheese was incredibly fresh and bouncy and balanced out the salty olives perfectly. Thyme adding another dimension of flavour whilst the Parmesan crumb added a lovely crunch and umami Green asparagus, ricotta & green pea, spiced cashews Slightly on the salty side but that could be because of the overly spiced and seasoned cashews which therefore was forgiven as they were lovely and well spiced. I loved the various of textures coming together in each bite from the crunchy mangetout, soft green peas and the lovely refreshing puréed asparagus and ricotta helping bind everything together. Cashews added that extra boost of flavour with its spice but also a subtle sweetness from its natural flavours. Finished nicely with Parmesan for a richer flavour and umami Red quinoa and wild rice, herb, duck, fennel Unfortunately the duck being the main deal was very tough, chewy and fibrous. Quite an effort to eat but luckily it was juicy and packed full of flavour which made it worthwhile. Wild rice and quinoa added a wholesome touch with its crunchy and soft texture and finished nicely with mashed fennel to balance out that textures with its light creaminess. Strawberry and cream, dark chocolate and baileys, amaretti Such extravagant flavours for such a simple looking dessert. The dark chocolate tart was obviously made from a high quality chocolate seeing how rich and smooth the texture was with lovely strong notes of baileys giving it lovely hint of bitterness and coffee aromas. Strawberries were fresh and sweet and helped lighten the thickness of the chocolate tart whilst the ice cream helped accentuate the velvety texture further with its creaminess I seriously did not expect such original and creative dishes and such high quality of food especially when no kitchen was in site and we were in the middle of no where on an abandoned train. Staff were informative and friendly which added to the charm of the evening. Portions aren't exactly big but leaves you satisfied and just about full. You do feel you are drinking more than eating but all the drinks were also excellent in quality and a great choice. It's definitely not a dinner you would forget and a great gift to those who like trains and unique food experiences. I absolutely loved it
