Ruff's Bistro

You'll find Ruff's tucked away on Orford Road, that stretch of Walthamstow that's quietly become rather good for eating. Walk in and it's exactly what a neighbourhood bistro should be—nothing pretentious, nothing trying too hard, just honest French cooking done properly. The kind of place where regulars know the staff and everyone seems genuinely pleased to be there. It's the bistro your mates drag you to because they've been going for years, and after one visit you'll understand why.
