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.

“No words can explain how great the service is in this place… how friendly the staff are including the owners. They always take the time to have a little chat and make you feel welcome, and make sure you’re satisfied with everything, and if you’re not (which is very rare) they fix it with a smile! Food is consistently amazing ( I highly recommend the wings)”

“Wow - the food was absolutely delicious. The mutabal is probably the best I’ve ever had. The service was top tier too. I came to this place almost ten years ago and it has only just got better and better! Thank you for the excellent service from Hasan!”

“Haven’t been here in years and it’s just as good. Had the chicken shawarma wrap and a shisha, and everything was excellent. The manager was very friendly. Will definitely be back.”

“If I could give it 0 stars I would 100000000000% give 0 STARS. THE STAFF, THE FOOD, THE ATMOSPHERE… FILTHY. The owner, Hasan??? WILL NOT LEAVE YOU ALONE!! I’m there with a mouth full of food and he’s there coming over to my table every 2 minutes (no exaggeration), extremely uncomfortable looks and words exchanged. He is a very rude man and the staff there are not trained to be working in that industry. I’m pretty sure I saw a piece of hair in my food, I say this as I’m a black haired woman and the hair I found in my food was ginger. The staff DO NOT wear hair nets. When I brought this up, nothing was done about it and I was told that it was most likely my own hair. No effort to be done to take my plate away and give me any fresh food with no hair. Absolutely filthy behaviour. Oh and also there was a filthy period pad in the toilet that hadn’t been put in the bin properly.. Other than that I had a really lovely time, would deffo recommend!! (Deffo stay away from Hasan, all of the staff, the food, the toilets etc)”

“I had the most beautiful experience here at Lamar Cafe and lounge today. Food, staff and atmosphere were all on point 10/10. Great hospitality, great value and nice chilled atmosphere…. I didn’t want to leave 😅 Thanks for such a beautiful experience. The complimentary baklava was amazing. I definitely would recommend this place for sure.”
