Eastern Bloc Peckham - (Near , South East)

5 /5 Samuel Spear: The schnitzel sandwich was great, but the crispy crushed potatoes were literally some of the best potatoes Ive ever had in my life! Well worth a trip.

5 /5 Simon Mortimer: They do a deal with Eko brewery for a schnitzel sando and a pint for £14. The schnitzel sando was so amazing we ordered a breakfast sandwich (its only available until 3pm) which was also completely delicious. Service was super friendly and we ate it in the beautiful sunshine!

2 /5 Roxana Voicila: I came here with high expectations after seeing their Instagram and was hoping for something that would remind me of home. I understand it’s meant to be “modern” Balkan, but I still expected to recognise at least some familiar flavours. The specials weren’t available, and when we asked, the staff member rather bluntly pointed to the board saying it was “crossed out as you can see,” which felt a bit rude. The food is decent if you’re not familiar with authentic Balkan flavours, but it didn’t feel authentic to us. Prices are also quite high for what it is, and a friendlier attitude would have improved the experience.

1 /5 Mark Tollefson: I have no idea how this place has so many 5 star ratings. We ordered 2 shwarma plates with a side of crispy potatoes for the expensive price of £29 and the picture shows what we got. It looks absolutely nothing like the pictures, the portions were extremely small, the schwarma was dry and flavorless and the "crispy" potatoes were mushy and supposedly they were topped with a scotch bonnet sauce which was non-existent. We literally headed over the road and bought two cheap chicken kebabs that tasted a thousand times better. Considering all of the other places weve eaten at in this arcade have been fantastic this one is completely out of place. Avoid at all cost!

5 /5 Joris van Ruiten: One of the best dining experiences I’ve had recently. The lamb was tender, aromatic, and perfectly seasoned. The wine recommendation matched the dish very well. I will definitely return.
