The vegan chocolate cake was truly awful - weirdly salty and not soft at all. Had a lovely cup of tea but the cup was chipped in a chunk-of-the-lip missing way, not in a cute way. The general vibe is okay, very hipster but the sofas were way too ripped up and for a place that charges £6.40 for a bagel, they should definitely have more than just filter/caffitiere coffee as an option.
My friends and I frequent this spot and decided to visit for our friend’s birthday. He had brought a bottle of wine with him. We were there for a few hours, having ordered multiple drinks and pizzas when the manager approaches us and sees the bottle of wine on the floor. Rather than asking us to pay a corkage fee, which we would have been happy to pay, he decided to dress us down over not supporting a local business and accused us of being disrespectful then confiscated the bottle until we were ready to leave. Needless to say, this kind of killed the vibe for the rest of the evening. Bit of a shame as we usually enjoy this bar. Apart from that, the rest of the staff are always very friendly and the food and drinks are very nice.
There is definitely room for an art focussed hangout spot in this area- but the whole point is it should be unpretentious. This place is not welcoming, the staff are surly, vibe is a bit dingy. A shame because it has potential to be the kind of place you could lounge and work in comfortably. Also don't expect anything to change because they have some of their worst reviews framed as a mark of pride.
Best pub on earth. Gives the opportunity for artists to show artwork on its wall space. Come and find out for yourself why so many students from next door Camberwell College of Arts come here to chill after uni.
Favourite spot in Peckham! You can come here to have a coffee, a bite, a drink; to eat, study, work, socialise, attend an event since the organise lots of nice things. It’s cool and has its own aesthetics. Definitely a nice place to go anytime during the day or the week! There’s a small outside sitting area too, which is nice, especially if you smoke. Quite cheap in my opinion and as far as it concerns the menu, there are lots of vegetarian/vegan option with Sunday’s brunch to be strictly only vegan! Check out their happy hour deals too!
Cute little bar. Unfortunately when I visited they didn't have the gluten free beer (stock issues) but usually they would have daura damm.
The prices are reasonable, the seating areas are comfortable and they allow dogs. I've heard they also do great live events. The pizza also looked delicious!
Also there are gender neutral bathrooms.
Decent spot for a pint, the IPA was top shelf and reasonably priced. Just wished they stayed open later than they do.
A lovely venue, great quirky coffee and bagel shop. Friendly staff and tasty ingredients. They also help out with the charity "South London Cares", that's how I found out about them. Definitely support them.
The bagels are always freshly prepared and very tasty, and although I've never had a cake from there, the people I'm with have, and have only good things to say about them.
Disappointed the eggs are gone though :P
