Riverside East (Stratford)

We had such a delicious dinner here! Everything was a delight, from the Parmesan croquettes to the perfectly cooked steak with peppercorn sauce, and finishing with the zero-waste bread and butter pudding. The staff were all super friendly too. I can’t wait to come back for a weekend brunch or roast!

We enjoyed a delicious roast with bottomless fizz and unlimited Yorkshire puddings here today. Moni who was our server was lovely, very attentive and great with the kids. Moni and Nick the manager were always making sure that we we were ok and asking if we needed anything else. The food was delicious. Myself and two children had the roast chicken and my husband had the roast beef. Everything was cooked to perfection and the Yorkshire puddings were huge! The restaurant itself was bright, airy and clean. It wasn't too busy which suited us perfectly. The toilets were clean too which is always a plus. We enjoyed our first visit to Riverside East and will definitely come back here to eat next time we are in the area.

Came in on a Saturday with our dog for drinks and stayed for a few rounds due to the nice atmosphere (and amazing red wine). 👀 Saw their menu for a Sunday roast so we came in the next day....could not have been more satisfied. The roast was one of the best we've had. I'd die for nothing but that cauliflower cheese. 🤤😍 Our waitress recommended the beef roast and could not have been a better recommendation! She was also super friendly and helpful and made it an even better experience. Super excited to come back and try their other food menu items! 😁

Best roast in Stratford! Came here on Sunday and had the beef Sunday roast and it was magnificent. We also had a wonderful server who made the whole meal a delight. Glad this venue is open and will definitely add it to our local rotation!

Breakfast was delicious and good value. The chai latte was really good! Staff were friendly and attentive. Nice, relaxed atmosphere with comfy seating and background music.

Really beautiful little spot! Was supposed to be going to the UCL campus cafe but saw this one and thought 'sod it' as it wasn't packed tight and stressful like the westfield costa i just came from. Sitting in it as i write this review, the prices are very much 2024 east london brunch spot prices but when i could have spend the same amount at costa for a crappier quality i think its a bit of a win. I would also like to point out i was not made to buy something to utilise the toilet which is always highly appreciated and noone attempted to hassle me over going in before i even considered ordering anything. cozy and spacious. got a sausage roll with an oat latte, the young guy who served me was very pleasant and kind and his supervisor(? maybe also chef) was also very polite and humorous despite not even directly serving me. food was really nice, sausage rolls have sesame seeds on them which i personally really love and the sausage was nice and fat, no skimping out here <3 coffee was really beautiful and had a nice strength. they ran me through the little punch card and i've amassed my first stamp, will be back a minimum of 6 times i guess! also because it's so out of the way and I assume mainly used for action on match days it was pretty chilled down with little to no human traffic aside from passerbys and the occasional small group.

Such a great addition to Stratford. Had a lovely lunch in the cafe and headed outside for drinks in the sunshine. Staff were super friendly, well priced and lots of options to choose from. Looking forward to my next visit!
