Hiba Taboun — Restaurant in London

Very friendly owner and nice food, we shared the £35 brunch set between the 2 of us! The tea was also superb (sage I think?)

Areas for improvement: We waited to get our order taken and for food a bit longer than expected While nicely decorated, the atmosphere wasn’t cosy like in the pictures. The tables are metal, it was quite cold inside. I think the place would definitely benefit from more warmer lighting, cosier furniture, pillows. And more neatly arranged shelves etc.

Update Jan 2025: Gave it another go and really don’t think it is that great. The service is still really long (40ish minutes), the place is not cosy (some empty fridges along the wall), the food is too oily - my Lebanese friend said the food wasn’t authentic. There was no toilet paper in the bathroom. Overall, no matter how much I wanted to support this local business, it the experience has been repeatedly...

Recently discovered this place. The food is delicious - we just had some sandwiches as we weren't that hungry but they were incredible. The staff was very friendly - there was a little mix up with the ordering and they went out of their way to make it right - giving us an extra portion of what we wanted to try. Also had a box of Baklava to take away which was great too. We saw a few people ordering their brunch option and it looked delicious - we'll definitely be...

I went to Mini Hiba a few doors down with my wife and child where the gentlemen kindly suggested we eat at their bakery Hiba Taboun as it had a lovely little play area for children. We were overwhelmed with how accommodating and welcoming/friendly the staff were. We ordered a chicken and lamb shawarma wrap with chips. Both tasted amazing and were incredibly filling. I would definitely recommend both places on service...
