10 Black-Owned Restaurants To Visit

So today is our first Black Pound Day (Saturday, June 27). With everything that has happened in the last few weeks, I think this is a day that we can and should take the time to support our community. And I think the best way to do it is through food! Why? Because everyone enjoys eating.
What is Black Pound Day?
Black Pound Day (which will be a monthly event) encourages people to buy products from Black business owners in the UK. It was set up by Swiss a former So Solid Crew member!
Below I have put together a list of Black-owned restaurants that are currently open for takeaways and delivery in the UK.
10 Black-Owned Restaurants to Visit in The UK

2. ENISH – London
London wide Black-owned restaurants with a branch in Dubai. Enish serves a diverse range of Nigerian food. I visited this restaurant at the beginning of this year and enjoyed it. If you are going, I would suggest trying some pepper soup or even the suya!
