I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious — full of flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was welcoming and cozy, but what truly made the visit special was the exceptional hospitality. A big thank you to the entire team, especially Toutou and Rostom, for their kindness, professionalism, and warm smiles. You made us feel right at home. Can’t wait to come back!

Amazing place for breakfast and coffee! This place offers an extensive menu for breakfast and brunch. They do also lunch menu. They have classic options like English breakfast, north african inspired breakfast, and also option to make your own breakfast. Portions are quite generous and very affordable for the price. The food was delicious , the Omelette is mouthwatering and fulfilling. They offer chicken sausages and turkey bacon so no pork which is rare find and it has not changed the quality and authenticity of the English breakfast. I also like that they have an option for a small English breakfast. Visited again and had the English breakfast and the half grilled chicken. Great value for money we stuffed our faces for a very reasonably priced meal The coffee is freshly brewed and has a rich aroma. They offer indoor and outdoor seating when the weather nice. Again Great value for money Definitely recommend !!

The best Full English breakfast in the area! This is a Halal cafe and my generous breakfast was made up of; 2 fried eggs, Turkey bacon slices, chicken sausages, hash browns, beans, mushrooms, tomato and toast. Cooked perfectly and presented beautifully. Delicious, fresh coffee. The people here are always friendly and welcoming. They also have a loyalty card: buy 9 cups then 10th free.

It's an excellent store next to the bazaar. The food and decoration in the store are done with great care. The food is delicious. The staff were very kind when they knew I had an upset stomach. It's wonderful to be able to eat North African food.

The food was quite tasty, and the portions had a great size. Great value for its quality/size. We had a full English and a burger. There are two highchairs available for children, and the service was quite thoughtful.

Wow, what an incredible, friendly and welcoming place! First time here as I live in NE London but in Brixton for the day. Quick Google search and this place came up, I was not disappointed!! Nos-Nos Coffee and North African Breakfast absolutely delicious. Nice and cool inside too, almost 30 degrees outside.
