The decor is quirky and retro without being unnecessarily hipster, and they do cream teas and all sorts of yummies. Quick service, friendly staff, and a really cute (but small and easy to miss) spot for afternoon tea or brunch.

Matt has outfitted an old van and operates as a mobile cart selling what was, IMHO, his coffee was the closest thing to a Seattle latte (where I live) that I came across in Europe. I don't believe that his stand is open all days at the Royal Victoria docks, but if he is there (and you will know he is because he has great on-site marketing), it would certainly be a worthwhile investment to stop by and grab a cuppa joe. Way better than any other options in the area, at least that we were able to discover.

They are strict about who they let inside meaning no youth or hood rats causing trouble.This is a great place to gather some friends for a safe fun night out as they offer a separate section for ladies and a private room for hire for those with big groups. I have been to this cafe many times and would feel comfortable bringing my wife here to enjoy the mellow relaxing atmosphere. The staff is extremely accommodating and make sure the customers are well served. As a frequent visitor to London, no other shisha cafe has lived up to my expectations like Moroccan Gardens. For all the Londoner's looking for a nice, relaxing place to chill out, Moroccan Gardens is definitely worth a visit!!

On March 1, 2025, I went in and ordered two coffees--an Americano and a Mocha. The so-called "black…read moreAmericano" wasn't actually coffee; instead, we were given the leftover dregs from the previous brew. The so-called coffee was practically transparent--it couldn't even be called coffee. I'm sure the Mocha was made the same way. When we asked why the coffee looked so bad, we were told it had "a lot of water," but in reality, it was just old leftovers from another coffee. Another employee--a young man--remade the coffee, and this time it actually tasted like coffee. However, they didn't replace the Mocha. The person who originally made our coffee had a rude and arrogant attitude, insisting that the coffee was fine in her opinion. From the very beginning, the service was terrible. I live in this area, but I will never step foot in this place again. Avoid this cafe, you'll be extremely disappointed!

I wasn't sure it would be enough to fill me up, so I got the Halloumi/Sausage/Avocado Toast, too. Everything was great, especially, the tea! The Bad: The service wasn't very inviting nor was it attentive or even kind. I'm not sure of why our server/host was so abrasive, but he was. I didn't feel at all like I was in a cafe, but rather more like I was in the home of a host who was not expecting my arrival...in New York. Overall, this was a good change of pace and good tea. While I will applaud the food and tea, I can't suggest coming here without having rather low expectations regarding service and host attitude. Maybe it was just a bad day, and having one unpopular experience isn't fair to this location. As of today, I give the food/tea a "4" but the service gets a poor "2."
