Pilpel St Paul’s is a casual falafel restaurant at 5 Queens Head Passage, just off Paternoster Row. It provides a focused, vegetarian friendly option in the City, with food prepared for a quick lunch, an informal sit down meal or takeaway.
Falafel is the centre of the menu, made to a family recipe and cooked for a crisp exterior and soft, herb filled middle. Diners can choose a pitta or salad container as the base, turning the same core ingredient into either a handheld meal or a substantial bowl.
Hummus, fresh salads and a choice of sauces add colour, texture and richness. Extras such as sundried tomatoes or hard boiled egg allow each order to be adjusted, while the counter format keeps the process straightforward during a busy working day.
The combination of freshly assembled food and a compact menu gives Pilpel a clear identity rather than trying to cover too many cuisines. Its position near St Paul’s Cathedral and surrounding offices makes it especially useful for lunch, though the branch also serves into the evening.
Address: 5 Queens Head Passage, Paternoster Row, London EC4M 7DZ, England
