Disappointing Value for the Price I recently visited Rowan ,l left very disappointed— especially considering the price point. I ordered a prawn dish that cost £16.50, and what I got was underwhelming, to say the least: just three small prawns, a pile of deep-fried chips, a piece of stale, old baguette. The prawns were decent in flavor but far too few for the price — three prawns for £16.50 feels more like an appetizer than a main. The chips were clearly the frozen variety, deep-fried and lacking any real seasoning or originality. And the baguette? It was dry and hard, definitely not fresh. For what you’re paying, you’re essentially getting a plate of fried freezer items and barely any seafood. There are much better places around offering fresher, more generous meals for the same or even lower prices. Sadly, I won’t be returning.

The English breakfast is outstanding, latte is good. Staffs are friendly. However ,wish you could turn the music down especially in the afternoon. The sound is so loud that makes me, the neighbour living nearby, feel disturbed. 🙏 thanks

We have been coming here for a few months now and we have had a great experience right from the start ! The staff are so welcoming and friendly. The food here is always good they have a wide selection to choose from, its always beautifully presented and they have some lovely home made deserts and yuri who is a waiter is always so friendly, kind and treats you like one of the family!

First time going to the cafe and it was a really nice experience. The food was clean and fresh, the staff are very friendly willing to engage with you. The service was fairly quick which makes sense as it wasn't overly busy The only gripe or problem I have was the high end cost. I think its a place I'll go to once in a while just because the quality is good but I can't afford to eat here every day.

My hubby and I went for breakfast this morning. The best ever hash browns I have had, mashroom was delicious and eggs done just how I like them, and presentation was terrific. I would definitely come back again the best breakfast served in Ilford. I will be recommending to friends and family too also the atmosphere and cafe is so relaxing, nice and clean. Love it 😘

Amazing taste for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Been there a couple of times. I will go again and again..

Went here for the first time with my boyfriend for a Sunday brunch, what a lovely bistro! Service was good and the range of food on the menu is wide. We ordered the avocado, halloumi and salmon bruchetta brunch and the calamari with mac and cheese. The only slight improvement could be the shakes and smoothies, they were not thick enough and we went for the peanut butter ones in which the flavour profile could have been stronger

Amazing cafe. Menu is extensive. Never has a bad meal. Staff friendly
