Excellent! We were a large group and the staff looked after us brilliantly. They were very helpful and informative, explaining what was in the dishes. An excellent range of Polish food. The Polish and Ukrainian with us were both very impressed by the quality of...the food, as were the rest of us. It was better than the Polish food I had in Gdansk a few weeks earlier. Don't be turned off by the appearance from the outside or the location. A special mention goes to Magda, our waitress who looked after us so well.More

My wife found this restaurant on our last night in London, what a gem, our server Nell was awesome, her recommendation where spot on. Schabowy was excellent, pierogis dynamite and the white sausage was out of this world. Thank you to Nell for marking out...dining experience great, we would recommend this restaurant to everyone thank you againMore

Heard a rumour about this place, decided to pop in whilst in town. Had the dumplings, stew and tea. You can tell a lot about a place by the simple things, the tea arrived and it was delightful. I ordered the small portion of dumplings...which was perfect as a starter to accompany the stew which arrived with some delicious bread, both dishes were delicious, not over complicated but still exciting. The venue is very cool looking, children will certainly enjoy the look of it. A great place, exciting food, great venue and wonderfully helpful staff.More

Polish restaurant and waitresses wouldn’t speak Polish . Main course was brought out before starter. Miserable service , it costs nothing to smile and then they have a nerve to put a 12.5% service charge on the bill. It wasn’t only us, other tables were...having mistakes with there orders .More

We haven't been to Mamuska since December 2022 and dropped in for lunch. It was busy with locals and tourists, individuals and groups. The staff were all so helpful and friendly. And the food was as good as ever - tasty, filling and fun. We're...long term residents in London and this remains one of favourite eating spots!More

The ambience ispretty basic - raw brick and concrete and beer garden style tables and benches. But the food and drink is genuine Polish. Food is really tasty albeit stick to your ribs cuisine, and the staff are lovely. And genuine Polish beers and vodkas....If you are open to a genuine Polish food and drink experience you can’t do better , and the wait staff are super nice.More

Our first time in a Polish restaurant…. What a delight!! We gorged ourselves on pierogi but also enjoyed the Schabowy!! This is comfort food at its finest! Fun environment in the old train arches. Prices were average.

Terrible experience. Our entire trip to London was great except for this place. We visited on Wednesday evening and had a great experience with the British server. Hats off to him as he made it so great we came back for a horrible time on...our anniversary. Went there with our family and was sat next to a large loud table. Drinks were inconsistent and nothing like Wednesday. My wife got a perfect one and mine had a large chunk of ice and no liquid. I asked for another with less ice and it was much better, but of course charged for another drink. We ordered a bunch of pierogis and was never asked if we preferred boiled or fried, we were served boiled without option and it was not good. Family was falling asleep and drinks were finished before our long food wait. Only a partial order was brought out. Missed a kids meal we had to mention to the waitress, which sat and the plate got hot on the warming station and handed off to my nine year old that mentioned the plate was very hot. Lucky he was not burned. Also only got half of the beef pierogi. Waitress never once asked how everything was. We finished eating and sat and waited for our bill, but it never came and our server was nowhere to be found. We decided to go up front and pay there. Holy smokes, our server was eating dinner. I spotted the gentleman that provided the excellent experience prior and told him he did a great job, but tonight was terrible in comparison. He offered up a conversation with the manager. I said sure, it should be known. She was so worthless and only made excuses. She was the one that sat a family next to the large, loud party table while the entire one side of the restaurant oddly sat completely empty. I asked if it’s better to come on a Wednesday and she said it was quite busy on Friday (but again more than 1/2 of the places tables were completely empty on just the one side). Excuse after excuse she did nothing to resolve the issues. Claiming lots of ice is needed to do something and that it’s somehow better. Look, this is not my first round, more ice means less Prosecco, which the waitress even told me exactly that. I ordered a drink with all the ingredients not just ice. Told the manager it is our anniversary, she didn’t care. Nothing was done to correct the bill or offer any kind of accountability for the experience and said we should have said something earlier. Well I did and nothing was done about the drink, finally got the kids meal after asking and walked up to pay my bill.. in full, ‘service fee’ and all. Holy moly don’t go here unless you wanna roll the dice. Lots of places to eat that are far more consistent. My kids said our server on Wednesday should be promoted to manager and I couldn’t agree more. All the best, hope they can improve in the future as it is a great location if nothing else.More

Popped in with my family on our first night in London as we were staying nearby. Was taken aback when the waitress said that one dish we went to order, Schabowy, "isn't nice", and encouraged us to order the (slightly) more expensive 'Schabowy Tower" instead....Our order wasn't read back to us, so we weren't totally surprised when a dish we had mentioned but didn't order - "chips with melted cheese (and unmentioned sausage bites!)" - turned up as well. Much carry on ensued when we asked to send it back. And to my surprise a 12.5% service fee is automatically added to the bill, so you end up tipping even when the service isn't satisfactory. In other news: the food was stodgy and overpriced for what it was; and the "salad bar" is four types of fermented vegtable. I wouldn't recommend a visit.More
