Jakobs is an Armenian-Persian café, deli and catering business serving London since 1996. We are known for our fresh, colourful and flavoursome food which ranges from organic salads, wraps and quiches to lasagnes and various Armenian and Persian dishes. We have also implemented British classics in our menu such as fish cakes, cottage pie and poached salmon - just to name a few. At Jakobs, we aim to serve a vast variation of food to suit all of our customers, whilst balancing flavours and adding our own Jakobs touch with the use of Armenian spices, Persian herbs and an organic, healthy theme running through everything we make.

Tania and the entire Jakobs team were honoured and extremely thankful to be a finalist at the BBC Food & Farming Awards 2024. Having grown Jakobs for almost 30 years, travelling to the final in Glasgow was a surreal experience, and it was a pleasure to meet our category judge, Leyla Kazim. We are so grateful to the BBC for organising such a phenomenal event, highlighting the importance of quality food, fresh produce and sustainability in a sector we all care a lot about.

“It was a mere coincidence in search for authentic coffee, I was showered with hospitality and warm chat, the interior design is cozy and people are so welcoming and friendly, tried Armenian coffee but will certainly come back for the mouth watering food.”
