Mr Falafel

We’ve been coming here since we moved to the Bush a few years ago. The falafel wraps are in a word ‘amazing’. The ingredients are all really fresh & super tasty. My favourite is the Supreme!

Favorite place to go for falafels in London. Had some great falafels by Brown University in Rhode Island and all falafel wraps I have tried in other places subsequently have been terrible. Mr. Falafel, thankfully, was an exception. Even better than the falafels I remember having in Rhode Island. This place is criminally underrated, but hopefully it stays hidden for a bit longer because lunch rush would be a bit of a pain.

This is some damn good falafel. Can’t go wrong with aubergines as standard in the wraps. Will be back

Best falafel wrap in London. You get aubergine as a standard… enough said really.

The first time I went here I was astounded and said «this is definitely the best falafel I have ever had». Since then I have taken at least 5 other people there. Only one has not said the same. This was because he had never eaten falafel before. He is in for a world of sad disappointment every time he eats falafel in the future.
The best thing is the supreme plus with added walnut-​stuffed pickled aubergine. Amazing.
It also helps that the owner is super nice. I love feeling like a regular there.

Following is one of those grand, sweeping statements that makes you think the reviewer hands out 5 stars like it ain’t no thing. Are you ready?
This is my favourite place to eat in London.
Everything I have ever eaten from Mr Falafel is beyond delicious. The deluxe wrap crammed with vegetables, falafel and deep fried potato is made even more outstanding when it is dripping in chilli sauce. Hand me one of these with a serving of fries and I will probably propose. Can gay people get married yet?
Very good prices. Ridiculously-​fabulous food. Awesome neighbourhood. Nice people. Just don’t point and laugh at the chubby gay guy in the corner with food all over his face (hint: me).

«Falafel»
Go ahead and say that word out loud.
If you’re doing it right it should make you smile. It’s such a fun word to say, and this translates into being a fun food to eat. Deep fried chickpeas and assorted deliciousness. Just enough ‘good’ stuff in there to convince yourself you’re being healthy, but with the added bonus of being cooked in trans-​fat-​tastic deep friers.
Mr Falafel sells falafel. Mostly wraps (I like the deluxe — a falafel and salad wrap with fried cauliflower and aubergine) but also some other dishes which are worth checking out. The surroundings are basic (That ‘marble’ paneling is fooling nobody you guys) but servicable and the prices are reasonable. It’s falafel! Falafalaflalaflalflflfelel…

A great place to go in cold weather. We were greeted warmly by the chefs/​cooks/​falafel-​makers/​angels who took our order and made our wraps on the spot. I got a Falafel & Ful Medames wrap which was about the length of my forearm, but thicker in terms of width. The mashed broad beans in my wrap was just what I needed for that cold afternoon — it wasn’t too mushy yet had a satisfying texture, much like having warm baby food. Except I don’t remember how baby food tastes like, but I hope you know what I mean anyway. I can’t tell for sure what was what in my wrap because the beans covered everything, and it was like one big yummy mess. But I’m sure the falafel tasted good. There was a perfect amount of veggies in the wrap as well, and the perfect kind. I’ve been a victim of onion overload in my Subway subs (well then I guess you can’t blame the chefs, because you create your own sub after all…) but the pickles in this wrap were, although distinct, not too overbearing in its taste and fit in fine. The chilli was not too spicy yet not too mild, a good in-​between level to add a little something to the wrap. (I guess this depends on the individual)
I had a bite off my friends’ Supreme Falafel wraps, and it was the feta cheese which stole my heart. It complimented all the tasty stuff so well.
On my second visit, I got a Vegetable Cocktail wrap (£3.50) which had no falafel in it, so beware, if you want some falafel in your wrap! The flavours and spices were great — they danced around my mouth excitedly. The sauces oozed out of the warm, delicious Lebanese flatbread, and the vegetables were colourful and tasty.
A small, humble place, with limited seating, but great, big, falafel wraps which are great to enjoy with friends.

simply the best falafel :) beware of lines during friday lunch time

I just love falafels and they are as good as they come at Mr Falafel

great quality falafel and a huge range of things to go with it.
Even the basic falafel doesn’t disappoint. Wonderful pickles, roasted aubergine, salad, tahina and the tastiest hot falafel!
Try some of the side-​dishes too. Gets very busy at lunchtimes bit definitely worth the wait.

This place is great, the owner has been in the papers twice so far


The Falafels are always fresh and yummy but the atmosphere lacks some music. I highly recommend their new Supreme Wrap it is simply something else. They have also recently started making some authentic Palestinian dishes like Ful Medammis best of all everything is vegetarian vegan and healthy. I once I asked the guy in charge about the secret of their success and he simply said that they do everything in house themselves all the way from scratch using ingredients which are sourced from shops in the area depending on availability.

Beautiful falafels, with a wide range of accompaniments. This place specialises in one thing and does it brilliantly. Falafels come in various size wraps (using different types of Arabic bread), with possible accompaniments including spicy stuffed aubergines, spicy potatoes, avocado, feta, pickles & salad. Everything is vegetarian and everything except the feta is vegan. Food is awesome, but be prepared to queue if you go there at lunch time.
There are only 2 – 3 tables, so best for take-​away.
