Lebanese bakery serving best man'oushe, za'atar, halloumi, and more
"Zeit & Zaatar in Shepherd’s Bush has been specialising in mana’eesh for over a decade, and it shows. They’ve got all the classics like za’atar and labneh, and halloumi, as well as some Z&Z specialties like basterma with cheese, and cheese and honey. Most of them come within the £4 to £7 range and you can’t go wrong with a classic lahm beajin or spinach. We like to ask for some cheese on them, because... well... melted cheese." - jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
"This little Lebanese spot in Shepherd’s Bush has been specialising in mana’eesh for over a decade, and it shows. There’s a long menu with usual favourites like za’atar and labneh, as well as some Z&Z specialties like basterma with cheese, and cheese and honey. You can’t go wrong with a lahm beajin (minced lamb with chopped tomatoes and onions) or tangy spinach, and we like to ask for some cheese on them too—which makes it even better. But we mostly love this place for the friendly servers who insist you take a seat out front so they can ‘bring you a tea with that’." - rianne shlebak
"Shepherd’s Bush isn’t lacking options when it comes to halal Lebanese restaurants and bakeries. But if you’re only going to try one, it should be Zeit & Zaatar. This little spot on Uxbridge Road has been specialising in mana’eesh for over a decade, and it shows. They’ve got all the classics like za’atar and labneh and halloumi, as well as some Z&Z specialties like basterma with cheese, and cheese and honey. You can’t go wrong with a classic lahm beajin or spinach, and you should always ask for some cheese on them." - rianne shlebak, jake missing, heidi lauth beasley
"We know, we know. Referring to Westfield as a tourist attraction could be classed as an act of treason, but London is a city equally known for its shopping as it is for its gloomy weather. So a trip to a shopping centre is probably on the cards. Avoid the seat-yourself hellhole that is the food court, and walk 10 minutes to Zeit & Zaatar. This quiet bakery on Uxbridge Road has been specialising in mana’eesh—Lebanese flatbreads—for over a decade. The calm cafe is the antithesis of the chaotic three-floor shopping centre you just left, and the food is significantly better. Our favourite is the classic lahm beajin, or the cheese and honey if we’re craving something a little sweet." - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, jake missing
