9 halal kitchens in Upton Park & Plaistow.
Part of The Halal Ledger. Every kitchen here gets the same three-voices check as every other: what the business claims, what customers reveal in reviews — quoted, with receipts — and what only the owner can confirm. Updated 29 July 2026.
How we verify
Every kitchen here is checked three ways: what the business claims in its own listing, what customers actually say in reviews (quoted, not paraphrased), and what only the owner can confirm — which we hold as an open question until they answer it themselves. We won’t list a “halal” kitchen if reviews contradict the claim; that’s cost places their listing before.
Kaffiend
Warmly-run Desi all-day breakfast & brunch cafe on Green St serving halal English/American/Desi breakfasts and karak chai.
Oodles Wok Green Street
Halal Chinese box-meal spot on Green Street (E13) – popular for spicy chips and noodles, but recurring gripes about seasoning consistency, front-of-house attitude and tired decor.
London Ribeye Steakhouse
Budget-priced E13 steakhouse with a Muslim clientele and Monday half-price deals; sharply divided reviews on steak execution and service.
Charminar Restaurant Green Street
Hyderabadi/Indian restaurant on Plashet Road, Green Street E13, praised for authentic biryani and desserts but with recurring front-of-house and wait-time complaints when busy.
Kohinoor Grill & Thrill
Cosy Turkish grill on Barking Rd, East Ham — well-regarded mixed grill platters, kind staff and a quiet, pleasant room.
Desi Palace Restaurant
Fully-halal South Indian / desi restaurant on Plashet Rd (E13) with online booking, known for biryani and family-style hospitality; some find portions small versus price and the front of house understaffed.
Bahar-e-Hyderabad
Tiny Hyderabadi biryani specialist in Plashet (E13) with rotating day-specific specials (Chicken Mandi, Lamb Tahari), best known as a takeaway for its biryanis at low prices.
Crusty's Pizza & Flame Peri Peri
Halal pizza and peri-peri takeaway in Plaistow (Green St, E13), open very late and on Just Eat/Uber Eats — divisive, with fans of the peri burger but recurring complaints about service and consistency.
Ranya Grill
Middle-Eastern shawarma and fresh-naan shop on Green St (E13) — the freshly-made naan (and naan pizzas) is the clear draw; shawarma and wraps get mixed reviews, and a £5 card minimum has annoyed some.
