Very quirky, wonderful atmosphere, food and drink. Puts a completely different slant on Shabby Chic

Incredible Indian cuisine (and cocktails!) Hailed by Hardens, and impressive enough to rival anything in central London.

Le Querce
The finest Italian restaurant I have ever been to, with a varied and fresh menu that caters for everyone from meat eaters to vegans and all in between without seeming to try! I book for anniversaries, birthdays, visits from friends - any excuse to attend the best restaurant I know of. It may not look particularly salubrious, but it is child-friendly by day and romantically candle-lit by night. I cannot recommend it highly enough!

Konditor & Cook
They have a few stores around, but this is the best. Curly Whirly cake is the food stuff of legends, the most chocolatey chocolate cake ever!

Under new management, it is good value for money and we have confidence in taking friends there. They serve excellent light lunches and suppers.

Brown & Green Cafe
Grab a quick snack and a coffee whilst at Crystal Palace Station.
"In 1602 Elizabeth I picnicked with Sir Richard Bulkeley by an oak tree at the summit of a tree in Lewisham. It became known as the Oak of Honor, which is where the name Honor Oak derives from."
The buzz around Waterloo really gives you the vibrant London vibe...

For me the Southbank is one of the finest places to take a stroll in the whole of the city.

Sit back and take in the sites from south east London's modern penthouses....
