Historically praised for deep-flavored Ghanaian home cooking, this spot is currently overshadowed by severe hygiene scandals and inconsistent takeaway quality.
Ordering Strategy
Stick to the soup and stew staples mentioned in legacy reviews, but exercise extreme caution regarding recent quality dips.
What to order
Kelewele
Described as outstanding chunks of spicy, sticky fudge-like plantain that perfectly balance sweetness and heat.
Peanut Soup
A bowl overflowing with depth of flavour, featuring cow foot and tripe in a rich, oily broth.
Palaver Sauce
A meat-free standout dense with spinach, egusi, and dried fish that doesn't rely on meat for texture.

Good to know
The restaurant's reputation is currently compromised by a 2025 closure order due to a severe pest infestation and a zero hygiene rating at the Croydon/Thornton Heath site.
