Best Lunch in Aldgate East: A Visit to Amber
Discovering Local Eats Near Runway East Aldgate East
Looking for the best places to eat lunch in Aldgate East? This week, our Runway East site manager, Danica, took a trip to one of our members’ Unity Healthcare’s favourite food spots: Amber, a cosy Middle Eastern restaurant just a short walk from our Aldgate East offices.
A Local Gem: Amber, Aldgate East
Only five minutes from Runway East Aldgate East, Amber, is known for its warm, welcoming atmosphere and delicious Middle Eastern food. It’s the perfect spot whether you want a quick bite between meetings or a relaxed catch-up with colleagues.
What’s on the Menu at Amber?
Amber serves up vibrant mezze plates, roasted vegetables, and freshly baked flatbreads that are packed with flavour. From creamy hummus and crisp tabbouleh to golden falafel and tender wraps, the dishes are fresh, colourful, and full of variety.
On this visit, Danica went for baked potatoes, corn pitta, and a refreshing side of tabbouleh salad, finished off with an elderflower lemonade. Simple, hearty, and exactly the kind of lunch that gives you the right boost for the afternoon.
Why We Love It
The open kitchen and buzzing dining space make Amber a lively lunchtime spot. During Danica’s visit, the place was full of people popping in for a quick meal, which says it all, it’s clearly a local favourite.
Whether you’re looking for a solo lunch spot to recharge, a casual catch-up with a friend, or a reliable go-to for fresh Middle Eastern food, Amber is worth the short walk from Runway East Aldgate East.
Thanks so much to our incredible members Unity Healthcare’s for sharing their fave lunch spot!!
