It's worth asking for a table inside if it is towards the end of the evening as the outside is closed earlier. We had a selection of Mezze between three of us and all left thorough satisfied!

Jimmy

As a Lebanese , I wouldn't call this authentic Lebanese cuisine but I do like the North African twist. Try our local Almaza beer !

Duncan Howsley

The Comptoir full breakfast is lovely, and the coffee is great too. Quiet on a weekday morning - perfect for a relaxing brunch .

Alex Iltchev

We really liked the food here and their professionalism. There was a small stone in one of our meals and the restaurant didn’t charge us for the meal at all. Excellent follow up - well done.

Olga Okulova

very nice food, I think it's a bit adjusted to locals, but still very decent. Mint tea is something you should go for after a meal. The only thing I didn't like was the service. Too ignorant

Wejdan ✨

Love the decorations and every little tiny detail,love the location, hate the food:( the wraps were dry! The batata Harra is not spicy at all. The only choice of side sauce was harissa ! Not Lebanese

Yasemin A.

try meze platter , it is fresh and tasty. appropriate for light lunch&dinner choices. service is fast and staff is friendly . however, i must say that the lemonade is average and overrated.

Reemz

Nice breakfast alternative for those who have a savory tooth. Try the zaatar manageesh with black tea

saj

I love this place! ???? kofta fattet ???? with a side of batetta hara ???? and a lovely fattoush salad ????

Hana

Their chocolate and tahini brownie with vanilla ice cream is to die for!!

Desirée MacDonald

Delicious falafel bowl salads that could feed you for days. Portion sizes are large so you get your money’s worth!

Derek Chua

I agree with what others have said: great tasting food, mediocre service. We ordered: the lamb kofta tagine , mixed grill, and the lamb burger , along with the taufaha lemonade .

Deema Al-Salman

Nice atmosphere although it's a tiny place. Hummus , kofte and fattosh were so good ???????? Rommana juice is so refreshing ????

Mai

Tabbouleh and roza lemonade were delicious! Falafel was dry. Extremely slow service and a bit too loud (but good) music .

Anastasia

If the weather's nice, grab a seat outside . Lamb kofta tagine , lemonade and rose mint tea are very good. Falafel , however, was disappointing.

Ossy Alawwam

It's a cute Lebanese bistro with great outside seating area for the warmer months.

Matt Hanson

Toufaha (apple , mint , ginger ) homemade lemonade recommended. Food fresh and delicious, staff unresponsive & surly.

Harriet Ruff

Brill brunch that's a little different! Halloumi plus fresh juices and good value . Location great for museums .

Asal Jambi

Great food bad service ! Order the wrap all are delicious !! And the lemonade is so refreshing ????

Matteo Matt

The waitress told me if I want an espresso (in Italian means "quick") I need to wait 30 minutes because they want to serve the people that stop to have lunch/dinner. Amazing...

Hugh Oblong

Staff welcoming and food looks and smells amazing! Good pricing too.

DM

Tasty food, fir great value , don't try home lemonade , its bad, but everything with humus is amazing!

Enzo Martinelli

Tasty Lebanese food with some nice touches like the fresh lemonades and the mint rose tea

Álvaro Paricio

The avocado , tomato and feta toast is delicious!

Dilara

Great food, bad service (x2) as someone else mentioned below. Toufaha lemonade is really good!

Melforss

Nice for a small snack or a bigger dinner . I love the decor and the patio !

Heather Foeh

Get the rose water mint tea after your meal - amazing!

Caro D.

Lamb Kofta is the best on the menu! Drink a Roomana lemonade if you fancy pomegranate , it's very refreshing!

Khaled

Great for tea and quick meal

Joe Nixon

Make sure you order well before 11:30am if you want breakfast - they seemed very put out that we wanted to order it at 11:25am on a Saturday despite being half empty!

Olya Kuznetsova

Every single dish tastes amazing! However I heard it was not really authentic :/

simon loasby

Thoroughly recommended! Nice staff , excellent food, nice ambience & good prices!

Dario Molinari

The atmoshoere is great. Just trust the waiters when it comes to food.

Anton Krasikov

A bit crowded , but still nice place. The food is delicious and service is quite fast.

Dr C

Meze platter for one is a great light dinner to share for two ppl! Try the froyo

LondonSouthKen

A lovely vibe here! Love the mixed juice too!

Duygs Duygs

Not too bad but could have been better. A bit dry but mezes are good trying.

Daria Glebova

Really good choice for those who love "food travelling" - extremely delicious!

Pascal Loose

Shish Taouk with a lemonade is a great combo!

David Benitez

The chicken and lamb

Cleobulus .

Big portions , food is ok, friendly service . If you expect to have Lebanese food you will not find it here! No spices used, no tagine cooking...baklavas are dry and tasteless too..

Chris Phillips

Good if you're a vegetarian . Nice to sit outside and people-watch if the weather is fine. Doesn't strike me as terribly authentic , though.

Sebastiaan ????

Have the lamb burger . You will never want anything else anymore.

Q

A bit overstated place. Mezze platter is very good but the wraps are disappointing.

Mohammed AlShareef

The dishes we ordered were average. The wraps were cold and not stiff. Slow service too. I don't think I'll come back again.

Danny Thuering

Great choice and affordable prices .

Arron Solanki

Excellent. Cheesecake for dessert is a must

Simon Darnley

Great mixed grill and salad

Ana Bender

the libanais candys are just superb!

Mimi Moo

Super fresh. Super delicious. Super nice!
