Quick info
About Bon Appetit
Bon Appetit is a Turkish-run cafe on High Rd in Romford, where kebabs and chicken shish with rice and salad run alongside the English fry-ups. Breakfasts and lunches make up the bulk of the menu, with the food cooked fresh on site and the chips served as proper chips rather than fries. Fish and chips, sandwiches, snacks and vegetarian options fill out the rest, and tea and coffee come alongside. The cafe takes walk-ins rather than bookings, with table service once you sit down, and it opens daily. Outdoor seating gives the option of eating outdoors, while high chairs make the room workable for families with young children. Orders can also be packed up as takeaway for eating off site.
