Sam's Cafe - Tower Hamlets

Saw this place on Darren Johns YouTube and had to visit. Top rate food and service was outstanding. Ordered full English with bubble and was advised no bubble left our disappointment was obvious and the lovely lady had a word with the chef who made us some. Best bubble ever! Friendliest service ever, a must do.

I was in the area hoping to know to a different very well known café along the street, but the queue for the other place was very long and I was getting hungry so this cafe was just 10 doors away, it was a great breakfast! Sausage looked strange, but it was tasty. Fried egg with a warm runny yoke, and very tasty bacon. The mug of tea was delicious and hot. Need to mention the very clean toilets, always a great sign.

Although great food, my experience for dinner and lunches has consistently been the same: Lousy service: The waiters chat amongst each other, even if there are hardly any customers...If they could pay more attention to those buying from them the whole experience would be SO much better

Coming back from Colombia Rd and a quick, cheap lunch was needed. I would thoroughly recommend Sam's Cafe since food was prepared exactly as I asked for. My wife said her panini was excellent also. £18 for the two of us with tea and coffee. Excellent value for good food and efficient, polite service.

Staff are charming but side dishes arriving at different times means main course goes cold. Frozen foil wrapped squares of butter add nothing to the experience. Whole operation needs tighter management front of house and kitchen. Good location quieter than main drag of Regents Park Road or England’s Lane. Not cheap for the food offering, but use decent tea bags. Few tweaks could make massive improvement.
