Em Lou's Kitchen - Menu

Buzzy atmosphere, great service, food and drink. Ordered scrambled eggs on toast and a coffee, and although the cafe was busy, it arrived in under minutes and was wonderfully tasty! Well done one and all, especially Em (the owner).

pop back to the kitchen of today young waitress named lem was so polite and helpful she could not have enough for us she really went away five stars for her we enjoyed a beautiful bacon sandwich with beautiful tassen coffee well banter...with the manager beautiful warm atmosphere definitiw recommend

Poor service It took hours for wrong dishes to arrive. No compensation offered for starters or drinks. Startes way overpriced e.g. for an avocado half in olive oil you pay The place is loud, smoked and crowded. Attracts a certain type...of crowd looks like a place to get drunks rather than to enjoy a good meal.

We had an absolutely gorgeous vegan breakfast here. The food was delicious and the service was second to none! I can honestly say it was the best vegan breakfast I’ve eaten out and I’ve been to a few places.. it is such a lovely, vibrant,...friendly and happy place. I will most definitely make it a monthly thing with my family.

I have been a customer of Em's Kitchen, for a long time, and I can still be surprised by what the bistro offer. Today for my lunch I had a smoked salmon, avocado and feta cheese toasted ciabatta. Scrumptious. I would like to give my...thanks and appreciation for all their hard work during the pandemic. It was a place of refuge and great restorative of the spirit.

I came here with my friend for a tee and one thing, I loved the vibe and the music they felt definitiw at home, and there was no pressure to order or finish their drink quickly. I enjoyed the friendly service, the ambiente and the love for detail. it's the perfect place to meet friends and family, I don't find myself in beckenham, but I'll be back for em's kitchen

My husband and I went to e&m Beckenham for lunch today. I ordered a cheese ham and onion toastie it was the worst I have ever eaten. Hunt the cheese bread not fresh and a nasty toastie. Whilst struggling to eat it the chef came...out of the kitchen he looked unkempt and grubby. If we had seen him before ordering food we would have left. Really need to pull your socks up to keep open. We certainly won't return ever!í

Returned here after some time away and arranged to meet a friend as remembered from previous visits that this place served nice food and had a good atmosphere. Glad to say I was not disappointed as we both enjoyed the visit, ate a nice breakfast...option, very nice homemade cakes and good drinks. All food and drink arrived promptly, well prepared and tasty. Service was prompt, very attentive, polite with good banter. Overall thoroughly nice experience and will be returning again soon.

I visited on a Saturday. The staff were so overworked it was awful to see and made the service extremely poor. Staff were running around constantly , forgetting orders. Drinks took ages to arrive. We were asked to move tables three times as there appeared...to be much confusion about reservations. With different staff telling us different things. Asked for tap water several times to different people before getting some myself from the bar. Once our food arrived no cutlery was given and had to chase staff for it whilst we sat with our food. We asked three members of staff for the bill and it never arrived so had to approach the till where they asked us what we had to create a bill! The people...
