Bread And Oregano Review / Is This An Underrated Cafe?

About halfway through my busy GCSE exams, I celebrated Eid-ul-Fitr (Thursday 13th May 2021) with my family. My sister and I went to a cafe to celebrate this small Eid and it ended up being an experience. But was the experience and food really good?

What is Bread And Oregano?

Bread and Oregano is a small cafe in Leyton, which is described to be a ‘friendly and relaxed space’.

What I Ordered And My Opinions On It:

Chocolate Cake

This cake cost £4.10. This was not freshly made so it was pretty quick to serve. It looks absolutely delicious as the chocolate is smooth on the cake. However, in terms of taste, I found it to be too sweet and I have had better cakes than this. I rated this a ⅗.

Mocha

The mocha was £2.45. This was a mocha that looked really nicely decorated, with the powder on top. It did not take too long to prepare. I rated this a 5/5, because it was delicious and warm with the perfect mix of coffee, chocolate and milk.

The Place:

The shop is beautiful as it is composed of the colour blue which made it unique. There are seating areas outside and inside and due to COVID-19, we could only sit outside. They also provided heating, which we realised afterwards. It is quite a unique experience to sit outside. When we went, there were a moderate amount of customers.

The Service:

The service on the branch I went to was good. The waiter was helpful and took the time to explain to us the menu (and beware that some food is not Halal in the shop). The waiting time was also not too long.

Would I Recommend It?

Yes, I would recommend trying this shop because it is beautiful in the interior, sells delicious mocha with a reasonable price and the experience was quite nice to sit outside with my sister and have some food. I think this is an underrated cafe.

My Rating: 3/5

My Rating System:

⅕ – was below average and would not recommend even trying once

⅖ – the food was average and would not recommend trying

⅗ – the food was delicious but would recommend trying once

⅘ – the food was really good and would recommend trying here

5/5 – the food was outstanding and is one of my favourites!
