Faulkners Bar - (Near Hackney, london)

Oliver Yung Ever so often, one craves that hearty, honest meal and for me, that’s Chaconia, a Trinidadian restaurant at the heart of Deptford. The simple and clean store front veils the rich and exciting flavours that belie. I ordered the chicken curry and rice and was persuasively nudged by a fellow diner to try the goat curry instead; fortunately, the most generous proprietress indulged my gustatory fancies and offered me a small side of that. It was a plate of absolute joy - both curries had distinct flavours and the meats were perfectly stewed, retaining their structure while being succulent to the bite. The rice was well flavoured and was the perfect accompaniment to those rich curries. At £5, this was an absolute steal. I’ll be back.

Robert Jesse Second time being there and the restaurant never disappoints! Drinks and food were good — I did try the rabbit, wasn’t expecting the fried texture but the inside was delicious. I was hoping for a birthday dessert since I mentioned in the booking that we were celebrating my girlfriend’s birthday, but overall I’ll definitely go there again!

Aliw Bah S. Food is delicious, filled with beautifully blended flavours!!! So good that the bowl was cleaned spotless!

Chris Jackson Great coffee and great vegan food. Had both the burgers and the bagels and can’t fault either – but you’ll need plenty of napkins!
