Abella cafe

Rating: 4.6 (207) Price Level:
This café is very nice generally. Some of the staff are friendly and lovely. I’ve had a few not so great experiences there but more good than bad. I would recommend this café to anyone in Collier Row or outer areas looking for something to eat.
Rating: 5 / 5
Never fails to dissapoint. The food is never overcooked, the presentation is amazing and such friendly staff. Ordered American pancakes. Unlike other cafes who serve you scotch pancakes from a packet these were homemade and absolutely delicious. Well done cafe Abella, you've created a customer for life.

Great cafe in Collier Row. Massive menu with all-day breakfast, lunch items, roasts and loads of other meals. Brilliant prices and huge portions; the meal for 4 in the picture below cost less than £30. Can also bring your dog with you if you sit outside.

Absolutely fantastic experience. Premises is extremely clean & tidy with lovely decor. Staff are very friendly & I was warmly greeted upon arrival. I ordered a Set Breakfast from the menu & asked for 2 changes which was no problem at all. The food was served quickly & the presentation was excellent. I would certainly dine here again & would highly recommend to others.

What a fabulous local find. Came here on my walk home from shopping in Romford and was so lovely! Decor is nice and also comfortable. Clean and very friendly staff. Had the lovely Mazing cooked breakfast with a latte and green smoothie. The owners daughter was just so lovely and excellent customer service. They were also very accommodating to my daughter. I'll definitely come back!

Went for brunch with friends, I’d been a couple of times before and knew the girls would hopefully like too. they loved it! Food delicious, service, perfect, could even park outside. What a great find and unbelievable value for money, we have all decided this is our go to brunch place.

Hands down best cafe around. I love their creativity with food choices and so much to offer! Lots of space too so no feeling of being overcrowded. Staff are lovely too. Picture in the review is the 'Posh & Spicy' with pancakes and I opted to swap for a veggie sausage. Was epic

Met some friends for a business meeting and they took me here for lunch. I ordered the Chicken Shish, I was actually expecting it with pitta bread, but never knew it came with rice and salad. It was absolutely delicious, but more than I could manage there and then, so I took the rest of it home and hoovered it for dinner. The staff seemed very cool and the place looked very clean like they care about how their place looks. I would certainly be happy to eat their again, and would recommend it very highly.

Finally, a place like this in RM1 - totally recommend 100 per cent! Plenty of space, nice decor, comfortable seating, clean washrooms. Several parking spaces outside. Varied menu including separate sides and a vegan option, all beautifully presented. Great coffee in nice big cups and served hot! Coffee with oat milk the same. Water served in a glass not plastic. If anything, service could be a little more attentive with menus given when first being seated - but it was a Sunday morning breakfast so perhaps busier than usual. We will definitely make Mazing a regular venue to visit!

Black Sheep Coffee

Rating: 4.5 (218) Price Level:
I've been to the Romford branch a few times. They open early, so it is a good place to go before catching the train. Generally relaxed place in the morning but can become busy later on. Strong coffee and friendly staff.
Rating: 5 / 5
Large choice of drinks on the menu and serving is efficient. Lots of seating available. The Norwegian waffles are really delicious, especially the Biscoff one!
Rating: 4 / 5
Wonderful place with great atmosphere, upstairs is very spacious and popular for remote workers, power sockets with USB pprts available. Also upstairs is some comfortable sofa-like seating. This place easily beats all the other coffee places in the area. Feels like you are in Shoreditch, not Romford. Only downside is that it's only accessible from inside the shopping center and closes at 19:00; it would probably remain busy all night if it was in the high street.
Rating: 5 / 5
Located in the ground floor of Liberty Shopping mall, Romford. This place is definitely worth the visit for those looking for an alternate Barista who have a great selection of coffee and snacks and a lively set of people who serve you. Shout out to Mr Adil who’s helpful and friendly. Ordered a Norwegian Classic Waffle and Chai Latte, simply Delicious! A must try location for those who haven’t been impressed by the existing Baristas monopolizing the market !

Amazing food, the English bird with the big lips is really funny and flirty, the things she did with my sausage before it ended up on my plate meant it tasted different to normal but still nice and juicy, top cafe, lovely staff especially ole trout pout.

Cafe Shot is a great spot for a delicious bagel. Their salt beef bagel is a flavorful and satisfying choice, with tender meat and a chewy bun. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it a pleasant place to enjoy a meal.

As ward councillor, it is a delight to visit Cafe Shot. I feel confident of a warm welcome whenever I visit. I don’t hesitate to recommend it. The food is freshly prepared, healthy and cooked with love. The coffee is my particular pick me up. Claire and Yos, the proprietors, provide a valuable community service; customers are more than customers, they are friends.

Leanne was a fantastic waitress! She was warm, welcoming and accommodating as some of our group were in wheelchairs, she found us a spacious table right away so everyone could sit comfortably and get in and out with ease, without hindering anyone else. The food was wonderful, and very reasonably priced and came out super fast. Would definitely come again!

Great cafe, staff were friendly attentive. Kids enjoyed their meal. Quite a large menu of seemingly random items from full English, typical cafe dishes to grilled kebabs and pastas. Clean and comfortable setting. Food was reasonably good for a cafe. Not exactly cheap nor expensive. Kids meals well priced and includes a drink.

Lovely lady, leanne was polite and very friendly. The food was great, largest jacket potato I've ever seen. Nice affordable lunch with friendly staff and lively atmosphere

Excellent. I travel for work and eat at cafes across suburban London. Miracles is excellent. Prompt and courteous table service, very good spinach mushroom cheese omelette with fresh salad including red cabbage and slaw (I declined chips and was still a very decent portion). Loads of tables ands clearly popular with all sorts of locals.
Rating: 5 / 5
Is what it is. Good cafe, decent food, great service. Bit of a wait on a Sunday but that just means it's busy Bank Holiday Monday and was quiet. The breakfast and spinach and cheese Omelette were amazing. Nice hot coffee to wash it all down. Place was clean and tidy 2 waitresses are amazing. Always cheerful and polite. Very efficient and a true asset to the cafe.

The chai latte was lovely and creamy. I didn't need to add any sugar. I ordered a chicken wrap, which unfortunately lacked succulance. The bread, soggy lettuce and chicken, were just not good. No mayonnaise and if there was it dried in the toaster. However, it's a nice cafe otherwise.

Cafe Fino
88 Market Pl, Romford RM1 3ER, UK | Cafe P: 01708 843154
Rating: 4.4 (446) Price Level:
Food was nice and the staff friendly. Decor looks good for this style of place. Cleanliness and the concept could be improved. Cleanliness: table and the plate was dirty. (plate dirty just as they placed the food on it, 2sec to wipe it so do it. ) Concept: They are taking the order at the table but you have to pay at the counter. It looks like the waiter staff not trusted to handle money? They are offering coffee and tea with the set meal but it doesn't contain cappuccino. Cheap solution. Bread coming pre-buttered, looks cheap solution. They are asking what you would like, bread or toast but they are not offering brown bread or toast. Everything tasted fresh(as much as possible with canned beans and mushrooms ) and tasty. Overall still a good experience for breakfast.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cafe Fino and was absolutely blown away by the exceptional experience I had. From the moment I stepped into the restaurant, it was clear that this was going to be a memorable meal, and a significant part of that credit goes to Leanne, who provided outstanding service throughout. One of the highlights of my visit was the food itself. The portions were not only generous but also incredibly delicious. Each dish was prepared with such care and attention to detail that it felt like a culinary masterpiece. Leanne's recommendations truly enhanced the experience; her knowledge of the menu was impressive and helped guide me to make the perfect choices. What truly set this dining experience apart, however, was the exceptional service provided by Leanne. Her warmth and genuine enthusiasm for her job were evident from the start. She went above and beyond to ensure that my dining companions and I felt welcomed and comfortable. Leanne's attentive nature and prompt service added to the overall enjoyment of the meal, making it a true pleasure from start to finish. It's clear that Leanne takes great pride in her role at Cafe Fino, and her dedication to ensuring an outstanding dining experience for her patrons shines through. Her professionalism and friendly demeanor are a testament to the quality of service that Cafe Fino consistently delivers. Thanks to Leanne, my visit to Cafe Fino exceeded all expectations, and I can't wait to return for another exceptional meal. In conclusion, if you're looking for a dining experience that combines mouthwatering food with top-notch service, look no further than Cafe Fino. Leanne's contributions truly make a visit to this establishment unforgettable. I highly recommend Cafe Fino to anyone seeking a remarkable culinary journey. Thank you, Leanne, for making my visit to Cafe Fino a truly special one!
