Bidrage med feedbackAfter struggling to find the café, it was unclear if there was table service or if we had to order at the counter, which resulted in wasted time waiting. Despite waiting a long time to eat and eventually getting ahead of a large group of cyclists, the food was still available. We had a hungry elderly person with us who had to wait. The restaurant was not overly busy, so it was puzzling why it took so long to be served and why the ordering system seemed disorganized. It was disappointing, especially considering the positive reviews.
Many times I have traveled out to eat for breakfast found this hidden gem on a Saturday well I and the wife who likes to be obeyed were over the moon with this cafe I had the full English with me being a scot and...my wife having Mexican omelette we both enjoyed it roll on summer.
Our experience at The Narrowboat this time was much improved compared to the previous visit. The coffee was good flavoured and the speed of the service and friendliness of the staff was very good. The toilets were clean and tidy and we watched the little...ones enjoying themselves on the bikes, scooters and mini cars. Definitely, a place for small people to enjoy a bit of fresh air whilst the adults can sit and enjoy a coffee or two.
We only had a cup of fruit tea at each as the cakes on display looked very tired and not at all appetizing. The cleanliness of the establishment was rather grubby but on the plus side, there were lots of children running about enjoying...themselves and letting off steam. It is doubtful if we would go there again.
We often make the drive from Forest Gate to Narrowboat and always order the Millionaire's Shortbread. We like to think we practice calorie cycling, so it would be impolite not to indulge in some.
