What diners say
I came here for the Palestinian support ofc, but it turns out that's not the only perk of the place. The staff is all Palestinian, and so the owner and the food. I had a Kafta Meshwi, which came with 3 lamb skewers, for just £17. I think it's great value for money. And the quality was really good. It's not the typical London restaurant, bringing you food after 2 minutes. Here you have to wait, as they prepare everything from scratch, even the drinks or the sauces. Talking about drinks, I had a nice Jellab, which reminded me a bit of a rose lemonade. Definitely a great place to go if you're in Holborn and hungry. You'll make your stomach feel good, and so your heart.

everything you’d expect and more. phenomenal customer service and staff are so hospitable. even gave us free baklava after, no questions asked. the type of kindness you’d expect from Pal estinian people, of course. plenty of veggie and vegan options. i got the Hiba mixed meat wrap though, along with Knafeh for dessert.

The food was absolutely amazing and flavourful. Portions were good too. End of meal they provided a complimentary piece of baklava which was very thoughtful. Next door is also the beautiful Palestine House. Would for sure recommend the experience to others.

I have been coming to Hiba on and off since 2017. The main constant has been the quality of the food which has remained delicious the whole time. Prices are also very reasonable for its location in Zone 1. The lunch deal remains competitive and a student favourite. When I have come for dinner in a large the service has been a bit so-so, with a dish or two not brought out without a reminder. But overall, I'm a happy customer and recommend this place to everyone who wants some delicious Levantine cuisine. The toum (garlic sauce) is well above the average for what you usually get offered in London and keeps me coming back.
