Hayat Paddington

“We visited this restaurant on our last day in London and had a great experience. The food was delicious, with just the right amount of spice - perfect after a tiring trip. We weren’t very familiar with Mediterranean cuisine, so we asked the staff for recommendations. We shared the Fattoush, a tagine, and two saffron rice dishes between the two of us, and everything was excellent. We also enjoyed the mint tea and Moroccan tea, which were a perfect way to finish the meal. The staff were very friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Highly recommended! Visited from Japan🇯🇵”

“We went there once for dinner and the other morning for breakfast. Both times the staff was very friendly and forthcoming. The burgers (especially the fries!) were delicious, as well as the breakfast plates with fresh pita bread. We highly recommend to get a cup of coffee here, the best one we had in London! Note: it can get quite warm inside in the summertime, but the fans make it bearable.”

“Really exceptional breakfast. Great food, great service. Lovely decor. We had the Shakshuka and Mediterranean breakfast with a pot of tea and Spanish latte. I don't usually have hot drinks but the Spanish latte was lovely, very sweet and creamy.”

“Not too Far from the Paddington station in London is Hayat, a family run Mediterranean restaurant. A cosy and compact place, Hayat serves up some amazing dishes. From the grilled Moroccan Merguez to the Egyptian Hawawshi, the dishes were packed with flavour. Recommend for a quick bite or a proper meal when in the area.”
