About This Pub

Oh, let me tell you about Moroccan Garden – it's this lovely shisha bar tucked away in Ilford that I've heard such positive buzz about from folks who've been. From what I've gathered, it's got this really chilled-out vibe with Moroccan-inspired decor that makes you feel like you're off on a mini adventure, and the shisha itself is a winner, especially if you're not a daily smoker but fancy a treat. The staff seem to be the real stars here; they're super friendly and go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable, which is just what you want on a laid-back evening out. It's particularly nice during quieter times, like a weekday afternoon, when you can soak it all in without the crowds. But, to be fair, it's not all smooth sailing – I've seen a few mentions of food that's not quite up to scratch, like dishes that feel reheated and past their best, and there was that one experience where things got a bit uncomfortable with the service, leaving some feeling a tad uneasy. Still, with an overall strong rating, it's clear that for most, the good far outweighs the bad, so if you're up for a shisha session, I'd say give it a go and pick a time that suits you best. It's all about that balance, isn't it?

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The shisha is reliably good and delivers a solid experience, perfect for a relaxed smoke session.
  • Friendly staff who go the extra mile, like Junaid, really make you feel looked after and add to the welcoming vibe.
  • The atmosphere is spot on – clean, cosy, and with a touch of Moroccan charm that transports you away from the everyday hustle.
  • It's a great spot for unwinding, especially during off-peak times like weekday lunches, where you can enjoy a peaceful visit.
Cons
  • There have been reports of food not always being fresh, with some describing it as stale or reheated, which can put a dampener on things.
  • Occasionally, the service might feel a bit off, with some feeling uncomfortable due to unprofessional behaviour from the team.
  • It might not suit everyone if you're after a lively crowd, as experiences can vary depending on when you pop in.

Been there few times, we always go at off peak times, weekday lunch time, so not many people and the service as expected is great. The Shisha is decent, I am not a regular shisha smoker but when we do smoke, this place does not fail to deliver. The environment is clean and the atmosphere is great! Would recommend this place

My weekly spot. One of the most chilled places I’ve been to. All the staff are extremely friendly and go out of their way to provide outstanding service every time. Special shout to Junaid for always looking after us.

If I can put an overall of 0 stars I would. The food was old and stale. It was definitely cooked earlier in the day and put into a microwave before given to us. The workers there made us really uncomfortable. I just found it to be very unprofessional and discomforting from the stares we’d receive. The hygiene levels weren’t the greatest, the cutlery had bits of food on and I had to request to get a brand new set. Overall was not a great experience and would not recommend to anyone at all.

I recently visited Moroccan Garden Shisha Bar, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I stepped in, the ambiance transported me to a Moroccan oasis, with beautiful decor, dim lighting, and cozy seating that created a relaxed and welcoming vibe. The attention to detail in the decor made it feel like a hidden gem—a perfect escape from the city. The service was outstanding. The staff were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the shisha flavors, which made choosing the right one easy and enjoyable. They frequently checked in to make sure everything was perfect without being intrusive, which really added to the experience. And the shisha? Absolutely top-notch. The flavors were rich, smooth, and expertly prepared, with a great variety that made it easy to find something unique. They clearly use high-quality ingredients, and the smoke was thick and flavorful without being overwhelming. It’s some of the best shisha I’ve had. The atmosphere, the music, and the crowd were all spot-on for a relaxing night out. If you’re looking for a place with incredible shisha, a beautiful atmosphere, and exceptional service, Moroccan Garden is the place to go. Highly recommended—I’ll definitely be back!
