The trouble is that you started out well and let the place go and was really arrogant when anybody challenged you. I had a lovely lovely breakfast when I first went in and then had a succession of terrible ones when I subsequently went in and have never been back. All the cooking staff were unfriendly had looked at the customers with blank, unfriendly expressions and were constantly heard slagging off the paying customers. I heard that the brothers have a wealthy father and set the place up for them. If this is the case then there is more to a restaurant than throwing money at the place and a customer base takes years to build up.

You lot have a lot to learn. You cannot charge top money for basic food, serve it up badly and then treat people with contempt. Remember, you are in Walthamstow and it may be getting a bit trendy but I have been here for 40 years and they have been saying it for that amount of time and there is a long way to go yet.

I think you have missed a great opportunity by your inconsistency and the initial euphoria when you all thought you had cracked it, has sadly gone. I will not be coming back anyhow as I said to the girl when I last got raw food that enough is enough.

Place is filthy
This place is filthy. Have a look at the carpet. Wonder what the kitchens are like? Had the buffet, only because the group I was with had the same. It was a load of stale rubbish dressed up in oily sauces. Well you didn't fool me. If this is the best place in Waltham Forest, I would like to know the worse!

This is purely designed for cheap end of the market to lure idiots who think they are having a good meal. Hygiene is suspect and worrying.

I have given it one star as system says you must! It ain't worth one. Quite appropriate though? STAR OF INDIA. Should be NO STAR OF INDIA.

Waited ages
Had a breakfast. All day breakfast, and you wait all day to get it! The breakfast was very dear but tasty. Large mushroom and nice sausage. Black pudding only one piece the size of a 2p coin. Eggs well done to perfection. Allthis for a whopping £8.70p with one cup of coffee.

Full of lazy, buggy wheeling mothers, blocking the aisles, spending their hard earned husband's cash on expensive coffee and pretentious grub. These same mothers are moaning that they have put on weight since giving birth to their snotty nosed kids. If they got off their fat rears and went for a run instead of eating cake they would not have anything to moan about.

The place is nicely laid out and appears clean. Menu is limited though for breakfast. Expensive too. Two boiled eggs with soldiers I think was near on £4.00! (2 eggs and bit bread costs about 30p?)
