Why has this place not been reported to the health department.
Gosh I hope if not already been reported Somebody or many people get reporting that toilet man was revolting and without smell o meter that cafe needs CLOSING THE HELL DOWN! Today!
@@mikesmummy I wanted Lee to take them to task and refuse to pay for than awful food.
Rent £100k a year, rates £45k……this place ain’t no cafe, trust me.
Would you like a special bacon sandwich Sir ?
What is it please I’m curious 😩
@@0cean144 it's a cover up for unexplained funds. Aka money laundering purposes 😅 they can say it's from the business but this business is clearly not making a profit
Ur rude its 5 star okay
How come this place is still open?
I can imagine Gordon Ramsay going in there and having a meltdown.😅😅
It's more Alf Ramsey than Gordon.
He would have the time of his life truly amazing
lol
"Get out what did I F*ckin tell you for the 22nd time the crosscontamination is unacceptable get your jacket and get out leave the stove "
Congratulations to the health and safety inspectors who visit this establishment to collect their back hander’s.
Absolutely spot on, it's the only reason just like bent coppers the regulatory services can easily be persuaded to look away👍
Corruption rules and always will.
@@DameEdna42 .
Definitely a money laundering
You mean Environmental Health Officers
This place is probably a front for some kind of shady operation in the back. Hence why they don't care about the cafe.
Yep definitely a money laundering place
The books probably show an annual turnover of £500k lol
Undoubtedly. They'd have to have some way of paying off the inspectors.
It's probably something similar to Ozark like with a drug cartel or something 🤣
Yup, that's the Mafia headquarters.
People wondering why this place is still open aren’t considering that it’s probably a front for money laundering. I bet their accountant thinks their food must be unreal.
100% Thousands of shitty corner shops are all doing it. But its raciest to investigate them.
@@hannible1002 Well said mate.
Good point. In this day and age with online ratings, a place like this shouldn’t still be open, here must be a reason that it is
@@hannible1002 "Raciest" What is that?
@@catabaticanabatic3800 its people that like racing but the person that likes it the most, hence raciest! Comprende?
😂💀
I think that’s where my wife learned to cook🤪🤪😫
Steve k , mine too lol
Hahahahah bet you didnt show her this comment.
@@ianreid think I am safe she can't use a cooker let alone a mobile phone🤣🤣
@@steveshrek64 Made my day. I however have been a chef for over 36 years
😆
The cleanest thing in that cafe is Darren's shirt.Thank you for risking your life for our entertainment they should have trading standards called in
Environmental health would be more useful!
If the public areas are so filthy, can barely imagine what the kitchen conditions are like in that establishment. 🤢
Waiter : "He says he wants some cheese on this burger." Chef : >BLOWS NOSE< "There you go, extra runny.."
Over the years I've found a number of decent restaurants that I go to regularly, but it took time. I commend both of you for your fortitude. Eating bad food is not only unpleasant, but potentially dangerous. The worst experience I had, was I'm sure, from eating a potato salad that was past its best. I'll never forget the agony I underwent that night from severe stomach pain. I often get leg and shoulder pain (age), but that pain was on a very different level. It really is a mystery how such establishments stay in business
When the cafe owner wrote that you could eat off his floor, he meant you could literally eat all the food that’s dropped on the floor. I reckon it’s a clever ploy from ole Liz to keep the plebs away or make them sick enough not to return 😂
U could eat off the floor there he was right.. He just forgot to mention it would probably kill you.
People will flock there to see if it's really as bad as they say.
There's no way that place should be open. Whoever inspected that place back in 2020, and gave it a four star hygiene rating needs firing. Even a blind person could tell via their nose, that this place is an unhygienic dump. Something is very wrong when a place like this can stay open, especially with no customers. I'm actually curious as to the reason, is there an embassy near by, and is this business just a bugging and surveillance front. Who knows, but there's definitely something very strange going on here.
I agree, i'd love to know more about the owner....
Ghosts come hear at night and have a party 😂😂😂
Great, honest review! This place was inspected and received a 4* food hygiene in Jan 2000!!!! wonder what happened and am astonished how is this place still operating in that part of London (with the expensive overheads etc) with no customers, no hygiene and serving the cheapest food available? Something shady must be going on
I visited this place on the early 2000s and even then the establishment looked cheap and cheerful. The food didn't win awards for the best in London but was acceptable and not nearly as horrid as shown in this video.
It’s also a launderette 😜
4*? How? In my town, they would be closed immediately and given a (very long) list of remedial works and a week to show real improvement before the EHO would even inspect them again.
Perhaps our EHO (Environmental Health Officer) is especially strict - we do have the cleanest Wetherspoons toilets in the UK! Prize winning we are told 😂
i'd be careful upsetting the owners of this place...i'm guessing the cafe is a front for something else. Centre of London - dead quiet - massive high rents - Be careful guys!
There’s actually no way, it has to be a front for something. It’s not normal, the way you guys have described it the way it looks and sounds ohhh my gosh. Definitely not normal
Man that place felt creepy; like a surreal movie.
Has to be a front - can you imagine the rates bill on that location..?
It's beyond belief that it's still in business, it would be interesting to know who owns it and why. Only one reason to keep that on really would be as a front for something else.
Something shady must be going on there...
There's quite clearly a money laundering operation going on here hence why it's still open.
I'd even throw my debit card away if it went through their machine let alone have any food or drink stuff pass my gob. Disgusting place full stop. 🤢
How nice a guy is he when he's trying to poison you.
Dirty dives like that place stay open because people spend more time complaining on the internet instead of complaining to authorities.
This is the sort of place that preys on tourists, I ended up in a similar place in Carlisle & I paid £6 for a microwaved jacket potato that didn't even fill a side plate!
If you took that food home in a doggie bag, Rover would leave home!
Even Basil Fawlty would demand this place shut down !
if you find a cat collar in you burger-then run for your life
That's got to be the most depressing burger and chips i have ever seen. Wonder what Gordon Ramsay would make of this place?
I ordered a breakfast and when I told her it was grim she called me a bastard and told me I'm banned
This cafe is on my route to work and has been closed for most of this year and last due to lockdown restrictions. It sits next door to a nice looking cafe that appears to be everything an eating establishment should be - windows letting light in , clean looking interior, menus with tempting choices at competitive prices ( basically doing everything right)
This red shuttered affair that the lads have frequented is a curio along the lines of a haunted house that you pay to visit but cower from the waiter, film the ghostly/ghastly food and try and scarper away with your life.
I think I'll give the non-abysmal cafe my patronage.
What hygiene rating was it ? can't believe the environmental health have even given a rating needs an inspection.
4 stars
I looked at that food and wondered how many times it had been served to other people!
Their faces after they left, they looked like they were suffering from PTSD.
I have eaten there before. I was doing the Buckingham Palace tour a couple of years ago and had a bite to eat. Absolutely disgusting. I’m blind but even I could tell it was disgusting you just had to consider the smell.
How this cafe has survived three decades given its location near Victoria Station meaning undoubtedly more than sizable rent is a mystery. Three customers on a busier day, zero on others, I wonder. It can be renamed like "Haunted Cafe" and can be listed as place to visit by London Ghost Tour.
If it's so disgusting and dirty, I can't understand how you ate anything there. Is it your wish to get food poisoning?
Doing it so we don't have to.
If you guys had been able to film the area the guy was cooking, then we would see how clean or dirty that area is. That's what the health inspector looks for. I hope you guys didn't get food poisoning.
I have a saying "if everywhere else is busy nobody's in a certain place, AVOID"
This kind of place is a good example of one of the main reasons fast food places such as McDonalds do so well. It may not be Michelin star quality food, but for the most part unlike independent restaurants you know exactly what you're getting. As a result of that you're not unwillingly going to get ripped off, and more importantly you're unlikely to have serious stomach issues a few hours later.
Not all independent restaurants are poor, you do a small bit of research prior to going to a new one, or stick with the tried and trusted one. McDonalds are garbage to be fair.
I always seem to have the shits after a Maccy D's.
Just stumbled across this channel, hilarious!! That burger when it was turned over - Jesus Christ!!! Fair play to you both for leaving without a scene! 🤣🤯 Now a subscriber! 👍🏻
Those place mats were OLD!!!! They were the ones my Mum had when I was a lad in the 80’s!
Back looked like a Riley’s pool table
that place is freaking terrifying
Just watching makes me want to jump in the shower and throw away my clothes, yikes. The fact it’s in a busy area and there’s just you 2 in there speaks volumes. Rumour has it the chef last washed his hands in 1996, same time as the lettuce🤣. Hilarious! Just found you, shall be watching more
Throwing them away isn't enough. BURN THEM! 😂
Maybe we should ALL report it to the Health Inspector!
The only thing that could possibly improve it? A FIRE 😂
The worst burger IN THE WORLD someone will die of food poisoning from there, needs shutting, hygiene is non existing.
"Do you have a bathroom, please ?" "Bathroom ?? - Ohh, you mean the shitter !.."
Frankly, I'm amazed that you stayed in the place. You shoulda walked out without paying and telling the bloke why. Can't believe you stayed in and attempted to try the meal and why didn't ask for some fresh milk?
One can only ask,if this is the worst restaurant/cafe in Britain,why has it got even one star?surely by all accounts it should have no stars if its that bad.
“How does it stay open?”, “maybe it’s a hobby of his” lol.....comedy genius lol
Hobby of his... What poisoning people.
I have no idea how you guys even sat in there let alone ate in there! 😂 It looks so so grubby 🤮 thanks for the entertainment
😱😱😱😱 unbelievable that cafe is still open, horrible, hope you are both ok after eating, think I'd rather not bother, that's not even a 1 out of 10, best thing about that cafe is the exit😂😂
Absolute zero exaggeration here lads. How much rent are they paying for that prime location? It makes Sid's Cafe (Hairy porridge) look like The Ritz. Surprised you guys managed to get a seat
Not my cafe mate🙂...I'm going to be realistic here but it's probably owned by foreigners from a 3rd world country and the cafe is 5 stars to them🙄😁
I did read (in Private Eye) that a number of dire shops in high rent areas-ie prime locations-are used and owned by criminal gangs to launder cash which explained how a shop selling tacky London souvenirs could pay same rent that high end retailers were. Apparently (according to PE) the cops know about it but do zilch. Dont know about this cafe-obviously the owners couldn't give a damn about zero income, they've somehow kept the health inspectors at bay and are-presumably-happy to pay the premium rent.
That was honestly the worst place and food i have seen ,it looked a health hazard hats off to you both for staying as long as you did .
I can't believe you said how great London is. And advised people to vist. I live in London and its a hell hole. It's not a great place to visit. You can't out at night without the fear of being robbed or stabbed. You can't drive anywhere without the fear of getting a fine for the smallest of things. The rent is unaffordable and council tax through the roof. We have a mayor that's destroyed the city even more. London is the last place I would recommend people to visit.
why do you live there then?
That is disgusting .
It even making feel sick by just seeing it.
I don’t get how that place has been allowed to stay open! Beggars belief!
This vlog was so funny ,it was a great idea.your burger was the most rank burger I've ever seen!! Yep health and safety need to get in there🤣xx
It looks to me like whoever owns the premises runs the place, otherwise how they could afford rent in that location🤔I've never laugh so much about something so disgusting...gracias amigos 😉
Perhaps you should send your vlog to the Environment Dept at Westminster Council as they should do spot inspections, probably not able to do at the moment.
I wonder who is giving this ‘excellent’ and ‘good’ reviews.
I feel sorry for the nice guy who has to work shit like this because he has to pay the bills. I've worked in horrible places and I felt ashamed for not being better able to give something better to clients
He can at least clean the damn cups. Water doesnt cost that much.
OMG!!! I’ve just checked scores on the doors and it was reviewed Jan 2020 and has a score of 4
Seriously WHO could possibly give it a hygiene rating of 4 when it’s that minging?!
Clearly it’s been like that for years. Brilliant vlog though, thanks guys.
It’s so bad most of the bacteria have died
They probably bribed the health inspector.
How dare they use the word Palace on that dive.
YOU HAVEN’T EATEN AT MINE YET ! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🚗🚗💨💨
Lol. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Another episode of Come dine with me coming up Geoff!! Beep beep
This is absolutely disgusting makes me so mad the place where food is being served. I sometimes wish I was not poor and could open an amazing restaurant with some never before seen recips/dishes I have required over the years. I know we would be busy all year round. Oh well wasted talent
One day mate just keep on believing having hope and dreaming mate god will lead you to your goal just wait a bit you got this mate;):.,
Just like every Pub and Cafe forty years ago ! Thank God we have moved on from then !
Is that really how bad it was in the 70s and 80s?
The sign that said All Day Breakfast would pull me in without a second's hesitation.
Lol
That was gross lee!
How do these places stay open?🤔
They must be using it as cover for drugs or something, you can't run a business like that on fresh air!
Food for thought, but not theirs!😃😃
Good place to past money thur
I wouldn't use my card in such an establishment 🤦🏽♀️
Good point
My card is Revolut. I used a one off temporary card. 👍🏼👍🏼
@@TheMacMaster well done. Could’ve been an expensive dose of the runs
Lol. 😂
WHEN YOU ARE LEAVING THE FRONT DOOR, CLOSE IT FOREVER WITH A 3 SECONDS SUPERGLUE.
Bless you both, so brave that place was Rancid..hope it didn’t make you guys ill …
Brilliant vlogg Lee, How are places like that allowed to trade? ONWARDS
I've had the pleasure of dining in some of the poorest 3rd world countries and I can't remember coming across anything like what that place looks like.
The health and safety authority in London must be very laxed.
Well said!!!! 👍🏼👍🏼
not lax, just bribed. Clearly a foreign owned drugs front to launder money
@@TheMacMaster
Exactly what I wanted to say. Even in India (don't go there, there are 200 nicer countries to visit) it was not so bad and filthy as this "royal" dumpsite in the heart of London ...
Now you know why they invented ketchup and hot sauces.
Maybe we’re all missing a trick here, if it’s the Queens local maybe that’s the secret to live to a ripe old age lol😋😂
Obviously a front for something or someone more sinister.
How have Food Standards not shut this place down lol? Maybe a potential series "Mac's Kitchen Nightmares"? :)
Lol. 😂 👍🏼
Oh yes, I’d love to see that!
Lol.
That's a brilliant idea👍but is it fair to put Lee through it?if he goes with Darren then the facial expressions alone would make it a massive hit😂😂🍻🍻
😂😂 Worst cafe, but best video ever... laughed all the way through it. Well done guys, great consumer advice 😂
My God! I would hate to see the condition of the kitchen. No, this place needs to be shut down.
Food poisoning 101 with the Macmaster 😅 I already told you Im in the same line of business. When i saw the table coasters for the plate i already saw enough. I cant believe this. They just don't care. Thats everything. I wouldn't even give this food to my dog man. What the hell. Everything needs to be renewed. Including the owners. I cant even image how their kitchen would look like. Food inspection would shut this place down in a second if they did a unannounced checkup
Did you pay? These places stay open for that reason and nobody tells the council either
Honestly how are food standards nit aware of these restaurants? £20 for disgusting stuff like that?! Absolute disgrace honestly these people have no standards.
Looks like somewhere in Bombay . I wouldn’t let my dog eat there . Gordon Ramsey would have a field day .
Definitely do not take your dog anywhere near that dive as it will probably end up in the burger mix😮what a disgrace✌️
These guys pull no punches👍 they don’t hide nothing 👍
Made me feel queasy just watching it, must have been horrendous for you guys 🤢🤮
How come is the place not shut down when it's that bad. Needs reporting for its grossness.
Over the last few months, my local paper has been publishing food hygiene ratings for dozens of establishments in my town.
Environmental Health Inspection is really, really strict.
To get 3 stars means "OK" but everything has to be spotless and health and safety procedures adhered to. Everything stored correctly, at correct temperatures, on the right shelves, labelled with dates, etc.
To get 4 stars means "above and beyond", 5 stars is like a Michelin star for hygiene.
Almost all of the cafés, takeaways, restaurants and bars reviewed in my town get 4 stars, a lot gaining 5 stars.
The care home where I worked until I retired last August had a 5 star rating.
EHO keeps the bar high for everyone. Though I would be perfectly happy to eat in a 3 star café tbh, those with the rating often voluntarily close, are deep cleaned and / or refurbished and reopen.
This café wouldn't be open a week in Bromsgrove. EHO would receive a complaint, inspect without warning, and shout as she might, the owner would be ordered to close immediately. No ifs or buts.
This is why I would not visit London again, ever
You both were very brave to even try that after reading the reviews, I'd have run the other way for a few miles! The things you do to make your channel great Lol! As an aside Lee I'm also allergic to penicillin! Snap! Well done anyway! 👍😜😊
The “food” looks like it’s been through somebody’s bowels already.
I’ve always wondered what those Cafes are like, I’m glad you saved me the pain of finding out first hand.
I love taking my Mother In Law to this place because I hate her soo much 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂 savage
That place looks grim. I bet even in a zombie apocalypse the zombies would have to think twice before entering. Looks like you needed to wipe your feet on the way out of the loo too. Kudos for putting yourselves through this review 🏅⭐
I'm sure at one point I spotted a rat voluntarily chucking itself on a trap....
It looks like Sweeney Todd is cutting hair upstairs in that place! 🤣
In all seriousness.. establishments like this ought to be closed down ..there a risk to public health ...
I travel from Plymouth and every time I get breakfast in the cafe next door, my heart sank thinking you're talking about this cafe soon as you mention the palace!! Thank God I knew the one you're talking about when I seen the outside 😂
Omg state of that bathroom. I definitely would not have eaten in there yuk
What's in the meat pies??, what a suprise no one else was in, the oil is probably changed once a year if that . Chef Mike strikes again.
My god, that was bad. I felt sick watching.🤢 Close it down, report it.🚨☠️
Great vlog you two loved the way you were so quiet in the cafe. and built the tension up .my favourite of you two together brilliant
That salad garnish is epic, 5🌟🤣🤣
