You won't leave hungry! - Edit
Authentic, healthy, filling & great value for money. Try the cake & coffee too. Definitely better than the omni Ethiopian place a couple of doors down!

Amazing - Edit
We didn't see a menu, just offered the dish of the night of injera with several different toppings. It was absolutely incredible, loved every bite. Little on the expensive side.

Tasty - Edit
The staff are very welcoming and eager to please. There was a mess up with our order, but they worked hard to resolve it and we ended up with more food. The different curries were all lovely

Absolutely delicious! - Edit
Such a warm welcome and really, really amazing food. If you haven't had Eritrean or Ethiopian food before, the best thing is to just tell them your dietary requirements and let them bring you a huge platter of deliciousness - all the different dishes arranged on a giant injera, served with spiced tea and more injera to mop it up- and just eat until you can't eat any more. This is vegan and gluten-free food that everyone would love to eat. I can't recommend this place enough.

Beautiful vegan box - Edit
Got a take away box for an early lunch. It was a delicious combination a classic Ethiopian/Eritrean dishes.
Read moreCame with loads on injera, and was enough food for two.
The very sweet lady that ran Rhoda gave me some cake as I was a new customer which was a lovely touch.
Pros: Think it’s all vegan

Blissfully delicious food - Edit
This cafe is a real gem. No menu as such but a wonderful selection of hot veggies served on a huge round plate lined with injera bread and you eat with hands scooping up the veggies with the flat injera bread. The food included lentils, spinach, potatoes, beetroot, carrots and green beans.
Read moreSuper value at £12. Too much for me to eat alone so I took the leftovers as a takeaway for next day’s lunch.
It’s a delightful space with lots of Ethiopian artwork and decor. I love this place. Highly recommended.
All the food is vegan, the only thing non-vegan is the option of cow’s milk in coffee but the owner told me she was going to do away with that so it would be 100% vegan.

Fantastic food and friendly people - Edit
Incredibly tasty vegan food (£10) and cakes (£2.50). The staff were very friendly. There didn’t seem to be any menu, I just went in and asked for vegan food to takeaway, and I was given a container with lots of different vegetables and styles of lentils (I unfortunately don’t know the names of the dishes, I haven’t had Ethiopian food before). I will definitely be returning!
