Food Scene

People travel from all over London to eat at this taverna-style restaurant; on a residential road east of Rye Lane, it's not a place you'd just stumble across. Albanian owner John Gionleka uses a charcoal grill to cook sweet prawn kebabs, courgette fritters and pork and lamb adanas with baba ganoush. Egyptian stuffed quail is served with roast aubergine, and a slow braised shoulder of Welsh lamb comes with coco beans and Charleston peppers. In short: it's worth the trip.

One of the best Italian restaurants in London. A locally loved Peckham spot that punches well above its weight, serving seriously good home-made pasta with simple ingredients: hazelnut, brown butter, Parmesan and sage; grilled squid, winter tomatoes, spinach and mint; fennel sausage and 'nduja. The menu, which changes seasonally, is scribbled on large chalkboards on the white walls of this Bellenden Road spot. Start with a short tumbler of Aperol Spritz and do save room for pudding of Torta Sbrisolona, an Italian almond cake, or homemade ice cream.

After a long wait, Burger worshippers in East Dulwich finally have a place to call their own. MeatLiquor arrived here in 2016 and judging by the regular queues outside, this meaty stalwart looks to be doing a roaring trade. With brashly-themed burgers, loaded fries and boozy shakes up for grabs, its offering is hardly subtle — who gives a damn when the patties are this drool-worthy.

Drinks & Nightlife

Spoiler alert: this is a story that involves you, a few buddies, and an industrially styled bar tucked under a Peckham Rye railway arch, with an ending that – after their notorious cocktail happy hour from 6-7 – you probably won’t remember. It’s been around for almost 15 years but the firepit out front and tasty burgers from local butchers Flock & Herd keep it a front runner.

…And just down the road is Peckham Springs, a bar-cum-contemporary art gallery tucked under festoon-lit railway arches with pallet board furniture. Open on Fridays and Saturdays (with a competing happy hour from 6-7pm), it boasts a buzzing atmosphere, decently priced cocktails and street food vans to keep you in good spirits.

Charmingly named after the old nun’s head that was literally stuck on a pike in the area during the Reformation, this 1930s local is a nifty spot for all types of drink, but is particularly worth popping in to for the street food residencies and the cosy garden out back.

Part of Peckham’s budding production circuit, Brick Brewery is a craft microbrewery housed under an industrial railway arch. And with the Taproom bar out front, festooned with fairy lights and recycled furniture, and serving all the brews on tap alongside a few specials and exclusives, there’s plenty of reason to er, hop to it.
