Mercato Metropolitano

3 Chadwick Rd, Ilford IG1 1EQ, UK

P: Not available

I like the idea of having food markets, we see these around the world and there is always a hype. I liked the fact we have started to see more in the UK and the mercato in ilford is actually quite decent. I have been here a few times now but on this occasion on a weekend it was very quiet to what I expected. Other previous occasions it was buzzing and entertaining but I think it may have lost its novelty. Quiet, bare, hardly any customers and no entertainment. Hopefully it can improve but what I saw was a few food places no longer existing, maybe forced to shut due to lack of demand. I do think it is worth a visit and an experience at that as we don't have many of these around. The food is quite good at all the places I've tried and price wise I would say higher end of average prices but small compared to restaurants. It's not a direct comparison.

There are lot of food choices and I have tried a few ranges from different shop. It has good vibe however, I found some food isn’t quite authentic. I tried Japanese, Chinese and some Thai. Japanese and Chinese foods were pretty good and definitely recommend it. However, Thai food was extremely disappointing, tried red-curry and pad-Thai both of them were not edible taste at all, literally binned both dishes.

Mercato Metropolitano in Ilford is truly a hidden gem that redefines the dining experience with its exceptional hospitality and vibrant atmosphere. The staff is remarkably courteous, and their dedication to ensuring every guest feels welcome is unparalleled. A special shoutout to Ms. Helen, whose warm and attentive service made our visit unforgettable. Her professionalism, friendly demeanor, and genuine care for customers create an inviting environment that keeps you coming back for more. Would be more than happy to hire her anytime for any of my ventures due to her classic perseverance and consistency. The food, ambiance, and top-tier service blend perfectly to deliver a memorable experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking great food and even better hospitality!

Very good and timely service! He was very thorough and methodical with our water heater issue. He was also very meticulous as we had some issues with the wires as well and it was very easy to miss but he managed to find it!

I would like to say big thank you to Mr Singh for his high quality of service from pre, during and after work was carried out. I had a blackout due to accidentally drilled through the main cable. I called multiple other companies and they said they couldn’t come out which caused me to panic. When I called Heyworth and spoke to Mr Singh, he knew exactly what needed to be done. He came very quickly. It was a hard job but he did it and save my day. Then he explained in detail of what is the next step. Thereafter, he kept me updated with the progress. He came back few days later to renew the main cable. Overall, I’m very pleased with the service and would recommend him to everyone.

Had the consumer unit changed and the "tails" changed ready for a smart meter being fitted. Did a check after work was completed and repaired 2 earth wires that had come loose inside sockets. Condition report supplied so I can get a smart meter fitted. Took a while to get work done as I had a holidays between initial visit and inspection and work being completed.

Food is very nice and authentic flavours. I ordered chicken biryani, bhuna ghost, chicken fried rice and paneer tikka. Bhuna ghost was the best. Very well cooked and yumilicious. We had ghulab jamun in dessert and they were the best in the town. Staff is friendly, kind and well trained. Overall, our experience was wonderful.

Today was my birthday and I took my friends there. We've been there before as well. Food is always nice. Can't complain. I've been there 3 times now. And whatever we ordered, we satisfied with the taste. Staff is friendly. Today Special mention to Chaitanya. He's so kind and treat people with so much warmth. May God bless him for being so kind. Jaspreets service has been amazing too. Definitely visiting again

This place doesn’t disappoint. We ended up going here last Eid as a chance, our other option was too busy. I’m so glad we did. The jumbo Biryani is food for four people- FYi. It was soo good but we ordered two and didn’t touch one so took it out. I wish we could have taken it with the pot- it was so nice. We had the mixed grill- the best we’ve had and enough for 4 people. We even had some to take out. We also had mogo, chicken curry, and naan- the peshwari one was the best I’ve had so far! The cocktails were good too! The staff were phenomenal and very friendly.

Stumbled upon this place as it was a few steps from my Airbnb and oh my goodness… SO delicious. My mom had the turmeric & cinnamon latte and fell in love with the peppery taste. I had the creme brûlée iced latte + the bom-bae bagel and was delighted by how flavorful it was!!! Sandwich was definitely a little messy but so filling. Service was also amazing. You need to come by here!!!

A really nice family-run business located at Redbridge station, the staff are very nice and friendly and provides excellent customer service. They serve really nice, fresh food, such as sourdough toasties, bagels, and bowls. I would highly recommend the Egg Oasis; it is a unique dish bursting with flavours, that you will not find anywhere. Also, they have a really nice speciality coffee blend :)

Had a wonderful first visit today. The lavender honey latte (pictured) was so good I had two. It had a delicate flavour and wasn't syrupy sweet like flavoured coffees from other places. My Dad really enjoyed his hot chocolate and my Uncle loved the cinnamon buns. Muskaan who served us was a delight to chat to and recommended the lemon pistachio bar (in the picture) to me. It was just right, sweet and buttery with tangy lemon. I will be returning again for sure!

The vibe is cute and cozy, friendly staff. I tried the sit in services since my first visit and found a huge difference in the coffee. The coffee served is delicious and the texture is satisfying, my takeaway coffee experience, which was also my first try here, was horrible. So now I just come by and and have a coffee while seated. I have retried the Biscoff Butterscotch and enjoyed it (on my own expense haha I did read your response to my previous post a bit too late if you're still offering a drink on the house .... I would love the opportunity. I have tried the snooker doodle today which I liked as well and the Salmon Royale bagel has become my usual. As a cafe nearest to where I live, I have grown to like it and often come here with a book to read and coffee blends to try! A change of music would help ... Light and classical?

10 out of 5 stars⭐️. Service was worth every penny. Very professional, great customer service and he arrived earlier than original scheduled time which was a plus for us. The Electrician Sham helped us fix a complex wiring issue with our lighting and just within minutes of arriving at our home. It took us nearly the whole day trying to figure out how to fix it ourselves, but we're glad Sham came to our rescue and had this sorted within 10 -20 mins. He's truly a certified expert and knows exactly what he's doing, and is highly recommended. Don't hesitate, just book him straightaway. From one very happy customer.

Shamsul installed a cooker for me a few weeks ago and it was a great job. He came on time and was thorough. He genuinely cared for the quality of the job and customer service. He patiently explained to me the details of installation i didn't understand but was interested to know and fully comprehend before making a decision. Wholeheartedly recommend 👌🏻

Very good service from Sadia. She is very hardworking and helpful., despite the shop being very busy, she has been very calm and very professional. Keep up the good work. Relaxing atmosphere to eat and drink. I am not too happy that she is working on her own and the shop has been very busy, hence waited a bit to be served and get my food. Extra support is needed in the shop for health & safety reasons etc

Went on a Sunday for late lunch, enjoyed the food. Freshly made food and plenty of options available. There was this chicken achari biryani (I think that’s what it’s called) was delicious. This was my 3rd visit, compared to the last two visits, I would say this was by far the best experience I’ve had. (probably because the restaurant was relatively quiet compared to evening times). Even the food tasted better. The service overall was very good. Plenty of seating available inside. Would be coming back again in the future iA.

I had an excellent dining experience at Royal Nawab in Ilford. The ambiance was warm and inviting, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. The service was exceptional – attentive, friendly, and efficient. The food was the highlight of the evening, with a fantastic array of traditional Indian dishes that were full of flavor and beautifully presented. The spices were perfectly balanced, and the dishes were both authentic and delicious. The portion sizes were generous, and the quality of ingredients was top-notch. Overall, Royal Nawab in Ilford offers a fantastic dining experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy flavorful and high-quality Indian cuisine. Price is bit higher than normal.
