Pilpel - Menu

Delicious falafel pittas my favourite lunch spot while working in the City. Big queues but they move miraculously quickly.

The best falafels in London! Crispy and delicious! The queue is usually long at lunchtime but moves very quickly so don’t be discouraged by it. Very tasty!

Falafel deep fried to death is not tasty and simply not right. The salad, of which the lettuce was soggy, was pretty tasteless too. Hummus looked nice and smooth but was again a bit bland. Wont be going back View menu

My favourite falafel place. Always fast and friendly service, generous portions and sometimes you get a free falafel to try whilst you're waiting too. Literally the best falafel I've ever had. And it's right next to St Pauls so a nice location too.

Visited pilpel as my colleagues have been raving about this place for sometime. Its a bit of a treck from work but it was worth it. Food was great the service was even better they gave us free falafel. Its a bit pricey but its well worth it. I would deffo recommend and the atmosphere in the shop was great. It was really busy but they served us quickly.

Having eaten proper Tel Aviv and Acco falafel, this place competes. The falafels are gluten free, and our server took extra care to give me uncontaminated salads in my falafel container. No GF pita, but the flavors are all so good I didn't miss it. The hot sauce could be spicier (I'm guessing it's dialed down for the British palate), but tastes great. The whole meal was a treat.

I have no complaints on the food. But does it really have to be so noisy in there? Would it be possible for the staff not to scream in your face whilst dealing with an order? Do they get injected with some sort of stimulant before lunch so that they can't control the speed and jerkiness of their movements whilst building the pitta? How about not ringing that silly bell all the time? If it was a better experience to be in here I would probably visit more often.

I went to their newly open branch in Canary Wharf and what can I say! This is by far the WORST falafel I've tasted! It just doesn't taste good! Weird taste and they put the pita bread directly on the glass counter without any tray where they've just cleaned with some cleaning products...maybe that's why the bread tasted weird too! The girl who gave me the takeaway bag was nice though but I saw she had a cut in her hand, please wear gloves if you care about your customers!!! I won't be eating here again because food tastes really bad. They even gave me a loyalty card that went straight to the bin LOL

I went for the basic falafel with hummus and salad in pita, and was pleased to be offered a free falafel while I waited. It was extremely good crispy and light. All was fine except for one thing I was asked whether I wanted guacamole. What’s wrong with that? You ask. There was a variety of different salads and sauces in the trays behind the counter, as you get in all kebab and falafel joints. The way I was asked was very casual, leading me to believe that it was part of the deal and I wasn’t given any indication that it would cost extra. It wasn’t much, just a pound or so, but I really didn’t like being unwittingly upsold in this manner. It took the price around £2 beyond that of what I woul... View menu
