Quick info
About Lamar Café
On Wadsworth Rd in Greenford, Lamar Café is a restaurant that takes orders on a walk-in basis rather than by reservation. The chicken shawarma wrap features on the menu alongside the rest of the kitchen's offerings. Shisha is available for guests who want to stay on after eating, and the café rounds off meals with complimentary baklava served to the table. Together the shisha and the baklava give the space a slower pace than a typical quick stop, suited to lingering rather than a fast turnaround. There is no booking system to navigate, guests simply arrive and are seated as tables become free.

“We had a really lovely experience at Lamar Cafe & Lounge. The food was absolutely delicious and everything was beautifully presented. The atmosphere of the place felt warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal. A special mention goes to HASAN,who created such a genuinely friendly and welcoming vibe — it really made a difference. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The rest of the staff, whose names I unfortunately didn’t catch, were just as kind, attentive, and professional. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I would definitely recommend Lamar Cafe & Lounge to anyone looking for great food and a wonderful atmosphere. We’re honestly lucky to have such a great place right in our neighbourhood. We will definitely be coming back!”
