The Friends Cafe London — Restaurant in London

Superb! A huge thank you to Caroline and Max for introducing me to this wonderful café. A few of us were on my monthly 'Taking the Peaceful Route' social bike ride and had just arrived on the Woolwich ferry. We'd been riding for two hours and getting hungry and Max suggested that we eat here. I was happy to agree, as I had found it difficult to get a decent meal in Woolwich on previous visits, particularly if I was accompanied by the vegans who often participate in my rides. As they were absent on this occasion, we went directly from the ferry terminal and parked our bikes at a convenient trolley stall belonging to a nearby supermarket. I was glad to see that the grey skies had cleared the outside tables, so we were able to keep an eye on the bikes (an important factor, when your Van Moof costs the thick end of £2,000!) and a cheerful waitress brought out the very extensive menu, which gave ample choice for even the fussiest eater. The food was served promptly and in an order that suggested that each was individually cooked to order, and each dish was well presented. A nice touch was the inclusion of sliced cherry tomatoes instead of the usual flabby and tasteless ordinary ones, and I'm awarding an extra ⭐ for this.

Prices are reasonable, given both the quality and quantity of the food, and my only regret is that I didn't get to photograph my meal - I was told in no uncertain terms that this is a social faux pas that is not to be tolerated if I want people to continue to participate in my social...

Lovely family owned cafe with friendly staff! I was staying close by at the Travelodge and went there to breakfast twice and my dad went another two times for dinner. We brought other guests there to show how good it was. They have a lot of options (especially breakfast — including veggie options!) My mom said that their fish n chips were the best she’s had. If I find myself back in Woolwich I will be back to this cafe. Great coffee, food,...
