El Bazaar: Reviews & Ratings
Fantastic place with excellent selection on shisha, drinks and desserts. Staff are very friendly and welcoming.
It's my favourite place in London. Nice atmosphere, always smiling staff, tasty food,nice juices and the best shisha you can find in the area. Really relaxing to spend 1or more hours there alone or with friends. It reminds me the little Egyptian coffee shops which ones I used to frequent when I lived there for 4 years.
I’ve been going to El Bazaar for a decade. And there is no place I’d rather go to. Get your self a delicious Honey Cake and Ice Cream and a Shisha and have a great evening
Great atmosphere! Recently renovated, and looks superb. The outdoor area is well fitted with heated lamps, so you're warm even in the dead of winter, and dry during windy downfalls of rain. Comprehensive selection of teas and flavored shisha. Staff are always pleasant and friendly. My only gripe is that it's a cash-only place.
Best authentic north African lounge in London. The music was on beat, the outdoor seating area creates an open atmosphere. Having sampled sheesha from every corner of London this was very good quality. The morrocan mint tea and salad dressings were of the finest qualities and richest flavours. Friendly and cooperative service. Even the toilet was better than 5* hotels. Interiors and design was so rich cultured and beautiful for the eye and soul!!!!
Good choice of shisha flavours and great customer service from both Mohummed and Abdul. They also have good choices of food and drink (both hot and cold). An established shisha bar that has been around for around 10 years! Would recommend the trip to this place.
This place has just reopened and it is beautiful! Completely different and a wonderful atmosphere. Lovely staff. Will certainly be coming back!
Love it! Best shisha in London at the moment. The food is great with crepes, waffles and sandwiches and milkshakes - I prefer the chocolate one.Gets full at weekends creating a great atmosphere. And best of all, it's open until 2am weekdays, 3am weekends which is great for me as I finish work late. Highly recommended.
