Yasmin Kane Located in Peckham is this lovely restaurant, even from down the road I could smell the food. My friends and I really liked the decor of the restaurant and the service and atmosphere was good . To share we had the pistachio hummus and baba ghanoushs , both were great but we collectively agreed that the pistachio hummus was our favourite. The Hajari bread used to dip was absolutely amazing as well, very light and fluffy and just overall a great bread. For mains my friends had the falafel mezze plate and chicken finjan, whereas I had lamb sharwarma. All of us thoroughly enjoyed our mains , lots of flavour and the rice was great but I would say that I could’ve done with a bigger portion of the lamb itself but I still enjoyed it.

Neville Cox A really great little restaurant. No over ambitious menu, but what is served is excellent. The Tigelle are little circular flat breads, lovely and soft inside but crispy on the outside. We had starters of the Tigelles with mushrooms and separately with tomatoes and oil, a take on brushetta. For mains we had steak and chips (generous and prepared well), spinach and ricotta tortellini and a platter of cheeses, including whole burratta, with rocket, plumbs and cherry tomatoes, with a basket if tigelle. Wine was very good and the staff were very helpful, friendly and professional. Had a great night as a family in this lovely little restaurant. Definitely recommend.

Andrew Reeves-Hall Delicious food served by friendly attentive helpful staff in a splendidly designed railway arch space all for a fair price. The entrance is through a garden of large potted plants that is ever so welcoming in this central London venue. Easy walking distance from Thames, tube and Waterloo station. Recommended.

Tabitha N Went to slug and Lettuce Waterloo bottomless brunch for my birthday. Sherrie served our table and she was amazing, service was 10/10 from her she was kind and absolutely on it! Drinks were constantly flowing and she always checked in on our experience. Would definitely recommend!

Berkay aydın Honestly, this was the best local experience of our 10-day London trip. As a family, we tried pie and mash and jellied eels. We chose jellied eels because its a culturally significant London specialty, although it was a little different to our taste. But the pie and mashes were fantastic with their special sauces. They also sell vinegars made by the owner. Its definitely a must-visit place in London. If you go to Greenwich, you absolutely have to eat here. While similar flavors, coffee shops, sauces, and brands are becoming increasingly common all over the world, local businesses like this are much more valuable. Plus, the place is a family business thats been around for about 130 years... Thank you so much!
