A grab-and-go spot bringing comforting, healthy, and cheap Egyptian street food to central London.
Ordering Strategy
It's all about the namesake dish: order your koshari in 'mild', 'hot', or 'mad' spice levels, optionally add a twist of doqqa, and grab a freshly pressed juice.
What to order
Koshari
The quintessential Egyptian comfort food: a hearty mix of lentils, rice, pasta, and vermicelli topped with spicy tomato sauce, chickpeas, and crispy onions.
Molokhia
A traditional, earthy Egyptian leafy green stew that serves as a highly comforting and filling alternative.
Muhallabiyeh
A traditional, creamy milk pudding laced with rosewater that tastes like a grown-up version of a Mini Milk ice cream.

Good to know
It's extremely cheap for the area, but seating is limited to about 8 spots along a stainless steel counter, making it ideal for a quick solo lunch or takeaway.
