COFFEE, LUNCH, DINNER & WINE. Take a quick trip into Camberwell and go to Good Neighbour! It has great coffees, and the food is excellent. Good for brunch or dinner. The burrata and the corn fritters are to die for. Very nice and cosy place with a great atmosphere and service

ITALIAN. PIZZA! Some say definitely the best real Italian pizza in London! Great place, nice people, caring service and really good prices. The place is always busy but you will get a seat, plus, if you have to wait for a seat you can walk 30 seconds to The Crooked Well for a beer or glass of wine while you wait (they will give you a buzz when your table is ready!) Also, they do an awesome tiramisù! Better than some you can find in Italy (says my Italian friend!)

CHINESE. One of the best Chinese restaurants in London (honestly) and it is very cheap. No frills, great atmosphere, incredible food. Beautiful, flavourful dishes at a variety of spice levels. The hand pulled noodles are essential. Standouts were the luxury noodles and the aubergine. It’s cash only but for such a high quality meal it’s ridiculously cheap. Book ahead as it gets very busy

MORE EXPENSIVE, BUT WORTH IT. Very good quality food and drinks, and clothes too if needed. The staff are very pleasant and helpful if you need to know anything. Fast food like sandwiches are fresh and tasty and inexpensive. A meal deal is £3.50 and include main lunch, a snack and a drink. Food is always fresh and very tasty. I buy most of my fruits here!

Drinks & Nightlife

PUB, GREAT FOOD. Excellent pub in a quiet street with good food and cocktails. Happy hour has select cocktails two for £8.50. Always a lovely inviting atmosphere and a nice warm feel to the decor. I recommend the espresso martini or the spiced negroni made with slow gin. For food try the fish finger sandwich and you have to get their Calamari dish!
