Brixton , British, Modern Restaurant Guide

“A great place to have in the neighbourhood” – this “lovely” Antipodean-run fixture is set – with its own sizable outside terrace – in a large and characterful Victorian laundry; and “sitting next to Brixton Market means it always has a lively vibe with some added street theatre”. “Lots of cocktails are enjoyed at the weekends here”, when it’s a favourite destination. But “it works for brunch, lunch or dinner” with an all-day menu incorporating a good selection of modern bistro dishes alongside more breakfast-ish staples.

“Still dreaming about the anchovies on toast!” Robin and Sarah Gill’s compact (28 covers) yearling aims to bring Parisian café culture to Brixton’s Market Row. All feedback on the “daily changing menus of small and larger dishes” is upbeat: “a small place with a brilliant selection of options, good wine and drinks list. Staff are really on it, know the dishes inside out and steer you in the right direction for your order”.
