Venue & Service

Yes foodies headed out for a munch with my boy otherday went to one of our usual spots brothers cafe restaurant which specialise in Somalian cuisine top tier too!. The venue is robust old school not to everyone’s liking but the food here speaks for itself soo does the service very attentive this Venue is split into two to provide a separate section for women.

Lemon meat Soup

A broth more than a soup with pieces of meat inside very tangy

Beef & Rice (platter for two

Woah it came presented lovely on a bed of rice and tali to get me a robust feel just like the venue takes you to Africa and Middle East how food should be enjoyed and shared. The beef was soft and thin really nice flavour too. The rice was really good but I have had better ngl!. The flavours were on point every bite you want more. The sautéed onions and peppers did give it a nice touch.

Banana Salad

This was really good even the sauces that came to accompany it was really different rich and Subtle sauces the banana was a 🇸🇴 touch as it is eaten in africa this way!

Drinks

Any one who knows me knows shani is the way to my heart at times hahahaha

Special experience with heart felt food one of my go to’s the service and hospitality you receive here is really good and the food speaks for itself so pop down foodies I know it ain’t a boujee place but food is...

This was hands down one of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve ever had in London. The hygiene was absolutely disgraceful – dirty floors, unclean tables, and a washroom so filthy I was genuinely afraid to use it. If this is how they treat the front of house, I dread to imagine the condition of the kitchen. It’s shocking that a place like this is even allowed to operate under UK hygiene standards.

We were a group of 7 and ordered 2 platters – nothing fancy – and were charged an outrageous £120. For that price, you’d expect decent service and at least some basic professionalism. But no – when we asked for sharing plates, they handed us a random mix of 3 different plates and small bowls, clearly not enough for 7 people. It honestly felt like they were just making things up as they went.

When I asked for a menu, the staff member literally said “I am the menu” – no joke – and then proceeded to mumble some items that were impossible to understand. No printed menu, no display, no prices listed, nothing. The staff were completely untrained, disorganized, and didn’t seem to care at all.

Between the filthy environment, the terrible service, the lack of any clear communication, and the ridiculously high price, this place was an absolute joke. I didn’t feel safe eating here, and none of us enjoyed the experience.

Do not waste your money or risk your health here. There are plenty of clean, honest, and professional restaurants in London – this is...

Disappointed Experience During Iftar

I travelled all the way from Central London to eat from brothers, ordered a takeaway for my family and friends for iftar, which by the way I’ve had brothers before & it’s always something! But now it’s an absolute piss take.

I was fasting and planned ahead by calling the restaurant 50 minutes in advance to place my order. Everything seemed fine at the time, he asked me to call back when I’m 20mins near arrival.

About 20 minutes before arrival, they took the order and confirmed it. I called again to let them know we were close. When we finally parked up, I rang to ask if the food was ready before stepping in. They said yes.

But when I went in to collect the food, literally at the time to break my fast, I was told “sorry, I just gave your order to someone else” and that they had nothing left to offer as it was the last of the food.

I mentioned that I had just spoken to him and he said ‘yeah I know what can I do’.

It was incredibly disappointing, especially after fasting all day and travelling such a long way. I understand mistakes happen, but the lack of care and accountability in such a situation, particularly during Ramadan, was frustrating and upsetting.

I hope they take more care in the future with pre-orders, especially during such an important time for many of...
