Balans East

I had the steak, my sister had the full English. Both were very tasty. Employees were great. There was an error with our coffee. However this was corrected and the lattes were well worth it. I should go there more often. The error was handled so well that they keep their 5 stars

Interesting menu options, tasty food. Primarily brunch items but all menu items available all day - including the delicious salted pork donut.

High quality ingredients - excellent coffee blend, lovely salted butter, good sourdough bread.

Friendly service and a good price. Don't bother with the breakfast option in your Westfield hotel, come here and enjoy proper food.

Where else would you get a lobster and bacon eggs Benedict.

Opulent brunch, par excellence.

Went in for breakfast, comfortable seating, had banana French toast, the syrup is too sweet and stinky, the toast is like a brown bread which I normally prefer sourdough in French toast.  Coffee is nice and costs £3.80 which my husband said a bit expensive, waiter was busy it was like one staff is serving the whole restaurant. The impression of the lady bar staff wasn’t very friendly, the bar was near the entrance door, she had no smile or greetings when we came in and when we left which is very unusual in a restaurant. I would expect staffs would smile, say hello and thank as basic manners.

Had breakfast here because it said it had halal options. Ordered English breakfast but the only halal option was to swap the sausage/rashers with chicken, ordered French toast which was very sweet for me but my friend liked it and pancakes which tasted good. Service , ambience and presentation was good, taste and halal options on the menu could be improved.

Good quality and quantity! Went with family for dinner. We ordered beef ragy mac and cheese, fish & chips, and the green grains salad. The mac and cheese was creamy with sufficient beef but lacked the traditional cheesy texture and flavor of this iconic dish. The fish & chips was great - served with mashed peas and sour cream, the fish was crispy and well seasoned. The green grains salad was composed of various grains such as quinoa along with broccoli, green apples, and green beans - terrific flavor combo!

The chicken and beef across all our locations is now Halal. Halal ingredients are handled and prepared separately to avoid any cross contamination. Please ask a member of staff for more details.
