Balboa - Colombian pacific Food - (Near Lewisham, South East)

Dan R Good range of beers available, and a lovely space in an old arch. Arch = good beer. Bonus points for having a black IPA on. A smallish fridge with reasonably priced cans to take away as well. There’s a QR code for ordering food to as well from a local business. I presume bringing your own would also be fine.

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

Hussein Ab Amazing food quality. Highly recommend. Prices and portion sizes are also good. Would defo return again.

Zoe Calvert Absolutely incredible food, best meal me and my friends have ever had! The seafood boil was delicious, soft and fresh and the guinea fowl was beautifully cooked and seasoned. Service was friendly and welcoming and vibes immaculate!

Taylor Weaver Fellow vegan here! I’ve been visiting my partner who lives in London and have made it a mission to find the best vegan sausage roll so Arapina was at the top of our list to try - it’s a primarily vegan cafe (also includes several vegetarian options) and also includes lots of other dietary options like gluten free, sugar free, and nut free! It’s off the beaten path in a quiet residential part of Greenwich. Great atmosphere in the cafe, there’s WiFi and nice tables to work at if you wanted to bring a computer or book! We vegan options we tried were the vegan sausage roll (of course) as well as the pasty and then the mushroom / leek filled croissant! Some of the most incredible vegan pastries I’ve had, hands down! The woman who served us, Kim, was so very sweet! Excellent customer service

Chi Man Chan ​If youre in Deptford, you absolutely have to try this place! My first experience with Caribbean food at this restaurant was incredibly impressive. The Food: Authentic & Great Value I tried the Oxtail and Curry Goat for the first time, and both were outstanding. The flavors were deep and perfectly soaked into the meat, which had a great texture—tender but still with a satisfying "bite." Everything felt very fresh and clean, and the portions offered amazing value for money. ​Atmosphere & Service: Friendly & Professional The staff were very friendly and patient, making me feel welcome as a first-timer. I also noticed that the kitchen was very clean and organized, which is always reassuring. Even on a Tuesday afternoon, there were many young locals waiting for their food, which gave me the confidence that this is a true neighborhood favorite. Coming to Deptford, you must try the famous Caribbean cuisine, and I truly believe the food here is as authentic as it gets—just like in Jamaica. Highly recommended!
