Lo malo de estar de turismo es que se te va el tiempo volando, cuando nos dimos cuenta ya era bastante tarde para comer pero íbamos hambrientos. Encontramos este sitio que estaba a punto de cerrar pero en vez de dejarnos con ganas, se volcaron en nosotros y nos atendieron sin poner ninguna traba. Como indica el nombre, el producto estrella de este sitio es el hummus. No creo que el hummus necesita explicación ya que si ya lo venden en Mercadona será porque hay demanda y la gente sabe lo que es pero para quienes viven bajo una roca es básicamente una crema de garbanzos. El plato consiste en hummus y luego puedes elegir entre varios«toppings» o guarniciones como por ejemplo: guiso de ternera con berenjena; tabulé; pollo con ensalada de falafel; guacamole con ensalada de falafel. También puedes pedir una ensalada a parte pero el hummus en sí ya llena bastante. El plato viene con un tarrito de salsa picante y un pan de pita aunque si lo prefieres puedes sustituirlo por tortitas de arroz, pan sin gluten o tortilla chips.

Frequently visit them for lunch. I’ve always enjoyed their food. Value wise I think it is excellent! Not only is it priced well the food is tasty and fresh with big portions. To add to this the staff is very friendly and efficient ready to help.

I really like Hummus Bros. So much so I even went to the effort of capitalising their name(I write reviews on my phone so I’m sure you can relate to how fiddly and annoying that can be). I like it here because they have a simple premise and they keep it simple. I am a fan of the chicken and guacamole personally. Go large so you get a touch more and twice as much flat bread. I’ve never been disappointed after coming here. That’s probably because it’s such a basic(but incredibly tasty) offering. It’s well priced. It’s tasty. They’re nice. Why don’t they have 5 stars? I have to have that burning desire to go up to friends and family and say YOUHAVETOGOHERE for 5 stars. And this place is great. But not quite that great. If you’re in the area and have any inkling at all to try this place. Do it. The hummus /falafel revolution has been happening for a while so jump on the band wagon. There’s plenty of room. And we have hummus.

Unilocal came to the rescue. Had a meeting near by & needed a place o sit. The Falafel & drink cost me £6.05& the have(slow) free wifi. The Falafel was much better than my expectations given the price & the(low cost) look of the place. I would definitely come back if I was I the neighborhood.

This Hummus Bros has the nicest guy ever! Also helps that the food was really tasty and left a great impression. I ordered a sweet potato and falafel wrap, and it was absolutely delicious. Full of flavour, rich texture and and a great price. The baklava here is pretty good and same with their fresh lemonade! Give this place a try if you’re looking for a light but filling meal.

I came here as it was another local restaurant participating in Amex Shop Small. There was a very short queue at 12:30, which is extremely difficult to find in the City. Since I needed to hit £10 spend, I ordered a large aubergine & falafel with sundried tomatoes and a side of chicken. I find the offering very different to that of Pilpel, where I usually go. They have a focus on salad and falafel, with some hummus on the bottom, and give you generally at least 6 falafels, whereas Hummus Bros only gave me two, and instead just serves it all on a lot of hummus. I really like the aubergine at Pilpel because it is deep fried and rich, but the aubergine at Hummus Bros is more of a purée. The chicken is also marinated and not what I was expecting but it was full of flavour. Another bonus people might enjoy is that you get 2 pitas instead of the 1 you get at Pilpel, but personally that was too much food for me. Overall, I don’t know which one I prefer — I am not the biggest fan of the salads at Pilpel but I find that lack of choice at Hummus Bros(you basically only get 2 things to add to your hummus if you do not put in sides /extras) a bit boring. I also like falafel more than I like hummus… if you choose Hummus Bros, you should really enjoy having a whole tub of hummus to yourself.

I was wandering around aimlessly on the search for a lunch place when I saw the Hummus Bros sign which said«give peas a chance». I just had to try it out and was not disappointed. Their falafel wrap was delicious and comes with a side of deliciously crunchy nachos. While the atmosphere is very plain and more of a warehouse feel, it’s a comfortable place to have a reasonably priced healthy meal. Will definitely return!

Ordering a small bowl for ~4.50/5 quid at Hummus Bros means you get a decent portion of hummus filled with your choice of topping plus pita bread. Adding a quid more for a large bowl means you get a larger portion of hummus with more topping plus two pita breads. Check out their daily specials, I’ve had the Chicken and Guac, Moroccan Meatballs, and Lamb Rogash and they’re all delicious. If you’re looking for something without hummus(and they do give you a lot of hummus) Smoked aubergine, Greek salad, Falafel salad are all made with fresh ingredients. It can all add up to a more expensive lunch, but I’d rather shell out the money than eat at Pret again.

I love Hummus Bros — it’s a great lunch spot. A big bowl of hummus, with your choice of toppings(fava beans, beef, chicken, guacamole, mushrooms, or chickpeas(!!!)), plus some wonderfully soft and warm pitta bread. The hummus is un-garlic’d, but comes with some garlic sauce you can throw on top, plus some chilli sauce if you’re so inclined. If you’re anything like me you’ll be surprised at how small the regular portion is — and then find yourself full by the end of it regardless. A fantastic lunchtime option.

Tired of the fish and chips… not really, but if you are in the mood for something different then the hummus bros fits the bill. Excellent chicken with hummus, and the pita kicks a$$.a definite stop when visiting St Paul’s cathedral… take your food to go and eat on the lawn. Not far from Tate Modern

Lots of options and so much better for you than the standard fast food places of London! I got a low-fat small hummus with chicken and gluten free bread, drowned my hummus in garlic and lemon juice, and had a bit of my partner’s greek salad. I was reminded how rich and filling hummus is – the small size was plenty. We were there for dinner at 7pm, which is apparently a very slow time for them, but our meal came out almost instantly. Hoorah for a body– and budget-friendly choice!

We took Hummus with Falafel and guacamole topping. The food was OK and the service was really friendly helping us what to order. The location is near St. Paul’s Cathedral and the prices are below average.

Quite honestly, a colleague and myself walked past this place only thinking that this is way to try something other than Pret, Eat, Pod, or Itsu and came away being pleasantly surprised. I ordered the Hummus with Mushrooms(small), which came with a large pita bread(whole wheat which I love). Hummus was great and the mushrooms were delicious! All this for 4.50! My colleague picked up the large chicken hummus with extra toppings of sun dried tomatoes and two pittas, which he enjoyed but said that he felt was pricey(came to 8 pounds). All I can say is I’m glad I walked around and found this yummy place thats quick and clean.

I wasn’t expected much and was very pleasantly surprised! Quick service, and for less than 5 pounds, you can get a small bowl of hummus wtih the tomato cucumber salad(my pick– i need some veggies!) and a pita bread. Extra pita will cost you, but I think it’s worth it. The hummus was amazing, while the salad was average.(You can only do so much with tomato, cucumber, peppers, and parsley).

only for seamless: hummus and x/y/z = five stars. other salads and whatever = two stars. stick with what they’re good at, I’d recommend hummus with chicken and peppers, and you will not be disappointed. also, in my limited experience(ordering twice,) they’re very fast.

Good selection of humous and related snacks. A bit pricey and the portions are not very big.

Hummus Bros offer the second best Hummus in London [the first is ], with that in mind their toppings that go with the hummus are amazing, my favorite is is this Texan chilli con carne. The only thing that bugs me is no bins, so i feel rude every time i leave my seat and am forced to look like an inconsiderate suit. So my advice to Hummus Bros is people in London are not too snobby to clean their own mess, just try it!

I’ve been eating lunch at Hummus Bros once a week now for almost a year. As someone who isn’t much of a fan of the traditional sandwich, what’s on offer here is a breath of fresh air. You always get a helping of hummus, regular or large. You then pick a topping — chicken, chick peas, guacamole… and can add extras on top of that for an additional charge(I recommend jalapenos with the chicken or guacamole options). You then get one(regular) or two(large) pitta breads with your order. They also give you lemon and garlic sauce separately which you can add, depending on how garlicky or lemony you like your hummus. The regular option is not only tasty, it keeps me full right through to tea-time, something that a lacklustre chicken salad sarnie from M&S does not manage. It goes without saying, of course, that Hummus Bros fare is very good for you. The only complaint would be that it’s a bit expensive, but it’s in the City, so, that’s not that surprising really.

A great lunch spot near St. Paul’s. Amazing hummus dishes. I had a delicuous hummus bowl that came with spicy chicken and a side of pita bread. This place draws in the lunch crowd. It’s like a super efficient hummus machine, really it is. While I ate my hummus dozens of people came in and out. It’s so popular, it might be handier to get take-a-way — there are only a handful of tables. It’s quick, clean, and reasonably priced, but most importantly the hummus is great!
