Friend A Delicious Dim Sum Chinese food at a reasonable price compared to Chinatown in central London. Some restaurants rush their cooking and some skimp on portion size but this doesn’t. I’ve eaten at many Asian restaurants and this one was wonderful! Taro croquettes, Har Gau prawn dumplings, Prawn Cheung Fun rice rolls, jellyfish, beef ho fun flat wide rice noodles, pork ham siu gok dumplings and many more options to choose from. Clean, quiet, on the end of Deptford high street. Highly recommend ☺️

John Absolute gem. It’s really cozy and the food….! I could tell they used really good ingredients and they put their heart in designing each dish. Each taste well balanced and when I took a bite multiple layers of textures unfolded on my tongue. The wine on the menu is also really nice.

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

T P Moc Kitchen serves some of the best authentic Vietnamese food in Deptford I have ever eat. The dishes are fresh, full of flavour, and made with traditional ingredients that really capture the taste of Vietnam. Friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere make it a great spot for anyone looking for genuine Vietnamese food. Highly recommend .

Hebah Aboud Great value for money, good portions and delicious food. Staff are always accommodating. The place is a little small and delivery is probably better unless youre in a small group. They have small mix boxes with noodles rice meat etc in one box which helps you if you cant decide what to get. Everything on the menu is delicious. Favourite dish here is the spicy wonton dumplings in broth. The fried rice is good too and so are the noodles. Honestly everything is really good. Locals love the place and its good value for money and is a gem in Deptford and one of the rare places nearby that hasnt been gentrified.

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!
