“A great place for dinner or drinks and nibbles. They are open until midnight. We visited for dinner and ordered a range of dishes, cocktails and wine. The croquettes were especially good, the padron peppers were the spiciest we’ve had in U.K. (they said it was a spicy batch), the scallops with onion bhaji and cauliflower puree was delicious, and we loved the chunky chips. All the dishes were good. The place was busy even around 9-10pm for dinner and booking is necessary. The only suggestion I have for this restaurant is to invest in an additional toilet, which appears to be needed for the amount of customers. We were sat at the table just outside the loo and couldn’t help noticing it seems to be the only one for both customers and staff. All evening there was a constant stream of people using it and more often than not people wanting to use it but it being occupied.l”

“If I could set more than five - I would do it. It was one of the best experiences we had so far. The set menu was unusual (in a good way), tasty and looks great. We were able to take all positions and shared between each other. Each position was very well balanced. I would highlight desserts because they very but not too sweet. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. Of course it is a bit pricey but still acceptable for the given experience. I can totally recommend the place to visit.”

“First time for me to try Caribbean food. There are a couple of Caribbean restaurants on the Deptford high street. This one has one of the highest rating. There are plenty of seats available in the restaurant. It looks quite clean also there are staff wiping the tables constantly. The order system is a bit challenging. There might be two queues, one is for ordering, one is for picking up. I had to mix of ox tongue and beef steak, a large one for £12. It is so filling. Big fan of the Ox tail but not so much of the beef steak because it was quite chewy. I would highly recommend the ox tail. It is really well dude the meat is very soft and tender with good flavour. The sauce goes extremely well with the plain rice. I normally go with rice and plantain. If you like Asian food, this would be fitting your taste as well.”

“Was there for the My Neighbor Totoro movie ear-a-long. Food was filling, atmosphere provides comfort. Check them on Instagram for the movie eat-a-long timings. Edit: went again for Howl's moving castle. Looking at it, we've had a surprise treat each time which was really good to look forward to! The booking is for 6pm, which we arrived at and the movie starts at 7pm. For now, this was updated 18-12-24.”

“We came here for pizza on a Friday evening. We didn’t book a table but It wasn’t busy. The pizza was very good. There are not many veggie options but we asked for a non veggie option with meat removed. You need to order at the counter and they will bring the food and drinks at your table. We realised there were many couples with newborn babies because the atmosphere is quite chilled, even if there is music, there is space for the prams and there are changing facilities in the toilets. Definitely going back!”

“Cocktails of a quality that I did not expect in Deptford. There's a finesse to the presentation , like the liquorice dot hanging in the middle of their 'Spiral' drink. The smoke filled cloche that covers the 'Go Figure' drink. The price suddenly is justified. The playlist, a mixture of Cuban. Rumba, jazz. It sets the mood so well. You can dance or chill to the beat. The food menu looked ambitious. The presentation was nice but the flavours were missing. Go here for the drinks. Stay for the atmosphere.”

“Cozy and spacious local pub with lots of character. Came for a pre-dinner drink with a few friends. A few good craft beers on draught and also plenty of spirits and cocktails. Pints are around the 5.50£ mark.. cheaper than central London for sure! The burgers looked fantastic even though I didn’t have a chance to try one… I shall come back for one! There is plenty of seated space and some outdoor beer garden space too in the back. Staff seamed cool and there were lots of locals. Generally a cool young environment with a good warm vibe to it.”

“Food was great, except the suya beef wasn’t as expected. The wait staff were friendly and mostly on point, but did forget drinks orders a couple times and take a while to provide service on occasion. Liked the atmosphere & music choices. A lovely place with lots of potential - I hope more people go because it could build up to be a real vibe. Main issue is to get the till fixed. When we requested the bill, there was nothing provided, just someone collecting payment. That’s not great for transparency… & when we asked we were told everything had to be written, but we still weren’t provided that to look over. It’s just for peace of mind more than anything because we all know mistakes can be made. Anyway, overall I’d say it’s up and coming & recommend a visit. We arrived near the end of happy hour, so next time will definitely go earlier to try more drinks!”
