Cheap Places to Eat in Staines-upon-Thames

"Unashamedly fusion, this restaurant and bar at the top of the Heron Tower mixes Brazilian, Peruvian and Japanese influences. One of the coolest things about the experience is being whisked up in panoramic glass elevators, Willy Wonka–style, to what are the highest dining terraces in Europe. There’s probably no better place in the city to drink in the sunset."

"Who’d have thought bringing Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cuisine could work so well?. Well, thanks to SUSHISAMBA you can enjoy the energy and spirit of these three distinct cultures in one sitting. So whether you’re after a Japanese hit, a taste of Peruvian cooking or, a touch of Brazilian fire, there’s certainly options for all!"

"Located on the 38th and 39th floor of the Heron Tower, SushiSamba is quite literally the top of the pops when it comes to sushi restaurants in London. Not only does this classy joint have killer views, but it also has a menu that’ll knock your socks off. Whether you decide to sit inside or out on the terrace, you’re in for a treat."

"If slick and sexy is the date vibe you’re going for, the low-lit labyrinth of Hakkasan’s Mayfair restaurant is one of London’s most seductive spots. Head underground via the waterfall-lit stairs to find tables flanked by peek-a-boo wooden panelling and a gently thrumming soundtrack."

"Address: Hanway Place, London, W1T 1HD/ 17 Bruton Street, London, W1J 6QB. Nearest train station: Tottenham Court Road/ Green Park. Hakkasanis a Michelin-starred eatery with restaurants in Mayfair and Fitzrovia."

"Hakkasan Hanway Place isn't the only Hakkasan in London (there's another in Mayfair), but it's the original restaurant that launched an international empire. The location won a Mic..."

"For truly excellent dim sum in a sleek, stylish setting, there are few places in London that match contemporary tea room Yauatcha. Yet another standout Asian offering from Alan Yau (Hakkasan, The Duck And Rice, Wagamama and more), after opening in 2004, Yauatcha was awarded a Michelin star and has held onto it ever since. Located on the corner of Broadwick Street in Soho (although there’s also a newer, City outpost), passers-by line up to stare through the blue glass walls at the rows of picture-perfect patisseries."

"The City outpost of Cantonese-European-patisserie-mash-up Yauatcha is now offering home delivery. Choose from everything from steamed dim sum, open-topped scallop shui mai dumplings, venison puffs and crispy duck rolls to sweet and sour pork and Singapore vermicelli noodles. For the first time ever, the restaurant is also offering Taiwanese pineapple pastries – the sweet buttery cake, which has caramelised pineapple at its centre, is said to hold the key to prosperity and good fortune."

"Chinese , Dim Sum"

"Why: In spite of being just moments from Shoreditch station, this industrial-chic BBQ smokehouse feels slightly off the beaten track. Whether that’s due to the lack of signage or the achingly hip clientele, we’re unsure, but what we are sure about is the delectable dishes Smokestak serves. We recommend going all-American with the ample feasting menu, which features all the best dishes including bone marrow flatbread, pork belly rib, beef brisket and sticky toffee pudding.Where:Smokestak, 35 Sclater Street, Shoreditch"

"Smokestak has grown from a charming street cart to a Shoreditch sensation. The BBQ joint offers buttery buns stacked with slices of smoked beef brisket topped with pickled red chillies. There’s a handful of other options but the original itself is one serious sandwich!"

"Undoubtedly one of the most special spots to dine in the city is Hutong, another of The Shard’s sky-high eateries located on the 33rd floor. With dark red, moody interiors, sparkling lanterns and a traditional Chinese wishing tree where guests hang their wishes on branches, Hutong oozes the romance of fairy tales and is an absolute delight. This is our top pick for a splash-out supper, with its vast selection of fine northern Chinese cuisine and creative cocktails set against the backdrop of the sprawling London skyline, which twinkles at night."

"Take the romance to another level – or 33 – at the Shard’s sky-high northern Chinese restaurant, where the panoramic views of the city are simply astounding. Inside, the restaurant is low-lit, dotted with glowing red lanterns, and intricately decorated with antique wooden panels. Things really heat up when you get to the menu: Sichuan spice peppers most dishes, so it’s aphrodisiac-central."

"A post shared by Life FR (@life_fr_) on Dec 27, 2017 at 6:26am PST. Savour spectacular views of London from this plush northern Chinese restaurant on level 33 of The Shard. Choose from dim sum such as Shanghai-style xiaolongbao or mains such as monkfish in Yangtze hot and sour broth."

"20/02/2021: Ussually our go to chicken place but the service has just gone to shame. Wrong orders, missing food and unfresh hard chicken on top of a real lack of customer service and care. Lost our business for sure, never again."

"Located a stone’s throw away from the home of football, you can sit in or take out at what is now the world’s largest fast food chain. There’s five different types of bread, any number of different fillings, be it Italian meat, tuna, chicken tikka, steak or meatballs. Then there’s the salad, complete with jalapenos and olives, and the sauce."

"If you’ve never been to Xi’an Impression next to the Emirates Stadium, you either have terrible taste or simply couldn’t get in. The founders have now understood that delicious, handmade noodles and Shaanxi province cuisine deserves a bigger surface area and opened a second outlet in Whitechapel last year (a third, Master Wei, can now be found in Bloomsbury). In this far more capacious eatery, all the same classics are available with far more room to breathe."

"It’s not for nothing that we have been going here/ordering takeaway from here for many years. There are nearer Lebanese restaurants to our home, but the food here is fresh, healthy and delicious."

"Alex Proud launched Proud Galleries in 1998, a hotbed of pop culture photography and an edgy hipster’s wet dream. The gallery is an independent warehouse, intimate and vibrant. Wooden beams hang over chic leather sofas, giving the place a rawness."
