Squires Cafe And African - Newham

I have been a regular at this restaurant for years, but recently I have noticed that the flavor of the jollof rice has changed and it seems like the food is not being cooked with love or joy. The owner should focus on creating a positive and uplifting work environment for their employees instead of making them unhappy.

I tried Nigerian food in London at this restaurant on a Sunday afternoon for takeaway. The Jollof rice was a bit firm but decent. The hake fish was tasty and the Shaki was also delicious. The Moi moi was a bit tough, possibly frozen before. Overall, it was not too bad of an experience.

I frequent this restaurant mainly for the delicious and affordable jollof rice. However, I can't help but notice the looks I receive when I walk in. Just because I am white doesn't mean I don't enjoy spicy food too. The fish soup is also quite tasty and perfect for winter colds. The staff could be a bit more cheerful and welcoming, but overall it is a good place to dine.

Good was fine if not full of gristle. Went with a friend who is a regular but I’d never been before. Had a lunch deal with some meat with a flavoursome rice. Needed lots of sauce to be able to get through the rice and there wasn’t much meat (but I was having a deal so that may explain it). One mouthful was pure fatty gristle which wasn’t so good. Over all the flavour was nice not sure I’d go there off my own steam but to meet friends it’s OK

Decent environment. Lovely food. Great customer service
