Mudchute Kitchen in Tower Hamlets

lovely food but long queues and no shortcuts for volunteers

We came here after visiting the pet corner. This wasn’t the first time we came. Normally we order few drinks and then top up with some dessert/ice cream or fries, depending on how we feel. We almost always bring food for the baby because she won’t eat the food in the cafe which is fine. Today though we brought extra sandwiches for ourselves while my husband went in to buy few drinks. We knew we would buy more stuffs as the meal went on because we love to indulge ourselves when we’re out and about. But while my husband was ordering inside, this rude lady came up to me and my daughter and shouted in front of the whole customers and said ‘this is private area. If you want to do picnic, go outside. There’s place for picnic there’. I was so shocked at the way she spoke to us that I couldn’t even reply properly-just said that my husband is inside. She said ‘then, it’s okay’. After that, she muttered in her own foreign language which in our culture would be considered very rude. I would have wished she asked first before approaching us in such an abrupt manner. Truly embarrassing and unnecessary!! We decided not to order anything from the kitchen following this incident as it’s totally not worth a penny for the treatment we received! Gutted with such hospitality at this nice farm garden which naturally should be exemplary and warming, especially with kids around.

Have eaten here before and it is generally alright food but on this visit I couldn’t order as you’re not allowed prams inside! Would love to be able to visit the cafe again soon but impossible when you’re on your own :-(

I don't recommand it if you don't have long time to wait. Specifically with children. You have to queue nearly an hour so you can't check on your children while you are queueing. The team don't seem overwhelmed though they take their time. I should have gone to asda to buy some sandwich it would have been faster

Where were the brand new loos mentioned on the website???? Only found 1 ladies + 1 gents traps in back of cafe - no new loos!!!! Cafe open to eat in yard. But usual bits all shut! Guess will fine later?

Really nice place in Mudchute Farm.It is open for dining in now and had lots of indoor and outdoor tables.Tuna melt and vegetable Panini with chips is great and good value.Nice kids options like fish finger with beans and chips.They do really nice slushies got £1.50.A nice selection to Ice cream such as chocolate, mint chocolate chip, bubble gum and more.Some ingredients used in the cooking are grown or sources form the farm produce which is nice.Good service and decor with toilets on site.A definite 5 stars and worth a visit.5 stars.🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
