The King of FalafelB

17 Hunter St, London WC1N 1BN · Falafel restaurant, Mediterranean restaurant, Restaurant · Bloomsbury

A beloved London falafel spot with generous portions, friendly service, and unbeatable value, but with some hygiene and consistency concerns.

Our take

The King of Falafel delivers solid neighborhood dining through strong food quality and exceptional service warmth, earning its loyal following among students and locals. However, food safety concerns and cramped seating prevent a higher grade, while occasional consistency dips suggest reliability isn't absolute. This is honest, affordable Mediterranean comfort food executed well—worth visiting for quick, satisfying meals, just not a destination restaurant.

One caveat: Some diners report inconsistent hygiene and cleanliness, especially during busy periods.
