Peckham Bazaar in Southwark

Excellent experiences, delicious food, good wine list and good value. Staff were all extremely friendly and helpful with good recommendations on what to have. Came here especially from Balham and will come back.

Our group of 7 had an amazing meal at the Peckham Bazaar for Mother’s Day ! It was one of the best meals I have had in years !The staff were lovely and welcoming in a relaxed atmosphere .Will definitely be going back !

Amazing food and incredible service! Will be going back.

I’ve been to Peckham Bazaar twice in the last month because it’s just so good. The food is some of the best food I’ve ever tasted - in particular the ox cheek and celeriac mash. The service is phenomenal and the atmosphere is perfect for a date or meal with family and friends. My favourite restaurant in London, you cannot fault it.

Perfect food! I had a lovely time and Mikel, was an incredible host! Suggesting the most delicious food. I am Thank you so much I will come again and this time bring my whole family

One of my absolute fav restaurants in London - Incapulates everything you want in a local restaurant!

My fave local restaurant - and up there with my faves in all of London! Every dish is interesting and delicious. I’ve been many times and never been disappointed

Outstandingly delicious and visually vibrant food in a relaxed atmosphere with a well curated list of predominantly Greek, low-intervention wine. A real neighbourhood gem that deserves greater accolades. Can’t recommend highly enough. The Breads came with Tapenade, and worked well with the Taramasalata and Babaganoush; the Marinated Pork Skewers were divine as were the Pork and Veal Keftedes. Yet I’m ashamed to admit that I was so busy enjoying the food that I forgot to take any photographs until we’d finished, but the patina of our table was beautiful.

Came here to celebrate an event with friends. The service was absolutely brilliant - very attentive but not in your face. The food was also really good - as the only vegetarian on the table I was a bit worried that I’d miss out but they made a point of bringing the vegetarian plates to me first so I didn’t miss out. The food all tasted lovely - I usually don’t enjoy cauliflower but the cauliflower steak was tasty. We also had our two kids with us - we weren’t sure they would love the menu so they added some potatoes and chicken thighs to the menu and some meatballs and rice. The kids ate it all and even enjoyed some of the main meals. Great food and service, will be back!

We went here for Valentine's. And what an absolutely terrible night. Not sure if they were understaffed or something, but the service was horrendous. It was so bad, that people were just getting up and leaving. Even some form of acknowledgement from the staff might have made a difference, but we were just made to feel like an inconvenience. Even the food felt like an afterthought, and was just ok at best.. Such a shame as I've been wanting to try here for ages, but sad to say, I'll have no reason to return..

After coming here for 7 years with confidence can say this is my favourite restaurant in London. The tldr is that you absolutely must go and see for yourself - absolutely no worlds, John is a genius. The way the food is curated , presented and served is art - as many other reviewers mentioned, the flavour profile of each dish is balanced and well thought out and the textures pair so well. There are combinations which are in theory simple that have changed the way I cook and eat, the menu always has the staples such as the courgette fritters and chicken thigh but overtime get tweaked slightly, the new dishes are added and there are seasonal specialties you might be lucky enough to catch every once in a while. The restaurant is family run and the owner often prepares the food himself - If you hear Allé! Allé! ringing out from behind the counter you know you are in for a special treat. Every time I come here I have the experience of the food critic from Ratatouille and I am yet to bring a single person here that deems the food as anything less than outstanding. Hard to put into words what makes this place so special, but I think if you spend decades honing your craft as a chef or restaurateur, this is the kind of place you’d want to create—one that feels so refreshingly real, carefully considered, and effortlessly exceptional.

Fantastic friendly delicious always a treat, this time on Valentines night. THANKS

Excellent menu - there’s something for everybody. Peckham Bazaar makes fantastic food, bursting with flavour - superb harmony between the exceptionally good ingredients married together by the highly talented kitchen team. Friendly, knowledgeable staff show great willing and the grilled lamb loin, succulent brill, beetroot and perfect taramasalata were stand out!

A real south London gem. Mediterranean food and diverse menu that happily competes with some of the best central London restaurants. They rely on great ingredients and, whilst the menu is definitely unique and modern, it continues to respect the basics of great Mediterranean/Levantine food.

Lovely food and service. Room cold and acoustics not great. Will come again

We booked a table for four at 6 pm. The restaurant was almost empty. We were given a table in the wooden decking area outside. I asked if we could be seated inside, but waitress 1 said no, we are fully booked. So we sat in the wooden decking area outside. There were some radiant lamp heaters, but on the table we were on, it didn't make much difference. The cold poured in from the wooden slats on the decking. My wife wore her thick coat throughout the meal. We both used the fleece rugs provided, although no one offered these to us. Service was slow, despite there being few customers, no one offered even a drinks order until 6.15 pm. I had a negroni, which was OK. My wife is dairy free and they did have an allergens menu, although waitress 1 didn't know what the symbols on it meant. The food is small sharing plates, and a lot of it was delicious. The best we had was the mackerel, which was sublime - served rare, with the perfect combination of smoke from the grill and salinity from the fish. The Ox cheek was falling apart tender served with a beautiful sauce. The Greek salad was super simple but utterly delicious. The prawns were also a big hit. Less impressive was the sirloin kebab - lovely accoutrements, but sirloin stands or falls with the quality of the meat, and this was unfortunately fairly bland. Another highlight was the artichoke puree served with the spinach and feta burek. I had the orange wine, Kodra Recina, which was delicious. I also asked for a glass of the greek house red, which was fizzy and tasted like ribena. Maybe that's how it is supposed to taste, but I suspect it has just been poorly kept, whether at the restaurant or in transport, I don't know. I didn't like it, and after speaking with waitress 2, who seemed to know what she was doing much more, I sent it back with no questions asked, which I did appreciate. I know I might sound picky, but at around £60 a head, I think pickiness is OK. Conclusion: I think I will come back again, lots of the dishes were delicious. My toes are slowly coming back to life from the cold! Next time, I will visit in the summer or ensure I am inside.

A lovely evening. Food was exquisite and the service was excellent. The music was a bit loud for 6:30 on a Friday but we asked the waitress and she promptly turned it down a bit so we could hear each other! Highly recommend.

First time here and my friend and I had a really lovely dinner. All the dishes were great but the lamb and the prawns were the stand out! And the Greek digestif we had was also delicious. I will be back

Always such great delicious food. The Tarama octopus is a particular favourite

This place is a real gem - delicious small plates to share. We loved the pork and veal meat balls , the cauliflower steak, dolmades and peppers. They were all delicious and filling. We had a lovely Greek red wine to boot and the service was very friendly and efficient. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I love this place. It is like sitting in someone’s kitchen on a Greek island, and eating delicious home cooking. Sadly the heating was a bit broken the night we were there, so we were reminded that we were in fact in South East London! But the menu, atmosphere and service are all worthy of praise! There are also many delightful Greek wines to choose from.

Still the best Tara in town. But the tsatziki with perfect padron peppers and home-made pitta were banging too (although I suggest they put the butter in a ramekin on side rather than the massive blob melting on the pitta (looks good but my companion does not like butter and was put off) Main course of pork and veal keftedes in tomato and saganaki and also the cumin coated chicken thighs matched the high standard. Food here is always a very high standard and full of flavour and am hoping that they reignite their second branch (Dulwich Lyceum due for a new venue) soon. The decor can be described as rustic at best and to be honest it was a bit cold and draughty even in the main room but that was a function of the coldest night of the year. Always high on my list of "go to" places. Never been disappointed with the food here

Been here before and it was delicious food and lovely atmosphere. We returned one year on at the same time of the year and we couldn’t even bring ourselves to stay after 5 minutes. With the draft and terrible air conditioning you might as well be sat outside on a January night. Terrible consideration for the space which is a shame because the food I imagine is still great. Massive disappointment

Food and service was absolutely excellent, highly recommend. Only issue was the restaurant was absolutely freezing to the point of being unable to remove heavy winter coat and hat.

We arrived to a freezing cold restaurant. It was busy but people were sat eating in their coats. We sat but after 5 mins left…was far too cold and not an enjoyable experience

Open Table accepted a reservation on behalf of the reataurant, however when we arrived it was closed! Very embarrassing as this was a Christmas gift to our guests, which we had booked several weeks before. Whilst the 1 stars seems harsh this is a royal mess up by both the reataurant and Open Table!

We tried a variety of dishes to share and all were amazing. The homemade bread is delicious, as are all the dips and sauces. Courgettes, sea bream, cod roe, shrimp were all equally delicious. Three smaller plates and two larger with bread served the three of us perfectly. We did not have room for dessert though, so reduce the sharing plates if you want to end with a sweet.

Really lovely food and excellent service. Go here every now and then and never disappoints. Lovely place, great food at a good price.

Delicious food and very attentive service.. the staff here are always helpful and accommodating.

Wonderful food - full of flavour and love. Small relaxed and friendly atmosphere. I cant wait to go again!

Amazing food- fun dishes with unique and tasty flavors. Iconic bite - whipped cod Roe tip mixed with pomegranate seeds and shaved fennel saved. So many fresh herbs and great flavors

Great restaurant. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant. This is my third visit and I will probably return again.

Delicious authentic food and wines as always, a real gem for SE London. Lived the mullet and wine selections. Excellent value, highly recommend.

Really lovely evening .. fabulous food and super helpful team serving us. Particularly liked that it was not noisy so could actually have a conversation with friends rather than having to shout! Highly recommend.

Great meal but I thought 13.5% service charge was a bit high

Wonderful three generations lunch. Absolutely delicious sharing dishes which we all loved. I will come again soon

Peckham Bazaar is definitely a hidden gem. Small and cozy atmosphere, marvelous food and service. Balkan music is very good, the volume was a bit too high for us. Overall, perfect evening.

Delicious food served finely, great service, you pay for what you get and leave full and happy. True love!

Once again food was amazing! Look forward to my next set of visitors coming so I have another excuse for going to PB !

Beautiful cosy restaurant with an open view kitchen complemented by some fantastic Mediterranean food. With half my family being Greek my standards are high but this surpassed them. New favourite restaurant in Peckham, just annoyed I didn’t come sooner. 10/10

The staff here is the best I have ever met! Very friendly people who do their job very well.

First time at Peckham Bazaar, and the food certainly didn't disappoint. Everything was incredible, and the recommendation of 5-6 sharing plates was more than sufficient between two people. Will definitely be coming back again

Very nice local casual place for amazing food. Loved the meats, Greek salad

Great place to meet friends good vibes and great food staff are all amazing

The menu offers a wide variety of options, and everything we tried was delicious. I would definitely go there again

Food was great. Place have a lot of potential. Weirdly we were the only customers (Saturday lunch). As the sun was out we chose to eat at the patio, sadly members of staff decided it’s ok to hoover, deep clean the car and remove a freezer from the basement located 1m from our table! Considering the meal was more than £150 im not sure it’s value for money. As it was our 10th wedding anniversary it will definitely be remembered but for wrong reasons.

Mixed experience at Peckham Bazaar. Some dishes very good (the lamb and courgette fritters) while some were very average (focaccia, Octopus and the baked chocolate). Service was friendly but chaotic. One dish was forgotten and plates weren’t really cleared so we ended up eating dessert with the table still full of previous plates. We were seated in the covered outdoor part but effectively felt inside (which was good in terms of warmth), although people were smoking in the area and it wasn’t very well ventilated so that wasn’t particularly pleasant.

Really lovely food and excellent service. Highly recommend.

Great little spot tucked away from the main Peckham and Nunhead highstreets. Could have gone casual or fancy, patio was covered and warm while still feeling like you were getting fresh air. Food was amazing, especially the pitta and the salads. The pork was another favourite.

The food was delicious the service impeccable. Really good wine too. It was maybe a little noisy but perhaps this added to the ambience. Will definitely be recommending this to all our friends a really lovely evening out.

Food choices were great, food quality & taste absolutely amazing! Had a fussy eater with me who raved about the food! Can’t wait for my next visit!

Excellent place to eat and drinkSo authentic and creative every time ! The food is an Art! Full of passion for Mediterranean Cuisine The Greek wines are carefully selected from the owner, that is person who loves to host ! Give it a go !!!

Love the food /vibe 😋 and staff were super friendly

Croquettes and chicken thigh were fantastic. John dory was not good. Scate was way way too salty, but on average the food was good. However, the wine is a complete disaster! There are a bunch of kids running the drinks and they have no idea how to serve or preserve wine..... 3 days old bottles of vinegar need to be thrown away and not served! If I ask for a glass of "same again" don't just give me whatever is available that has a similar name! Get a grip of your wine and you would be a credible place!

After reading recent reviews I was sceptical at first about going. But I’m glad to say we had an amazing time. The food and flavour combinations were delicious and exciting! The plate sizes are larger than you’d expect. The octopus was amazing, so was the mushroom croquettes and the sardines. The pork was also lovely but one part of the 2 was quite dry (still so good though). A perfect candle lit date for 2 food lovers (my partner is Italian and hard to impress so him saying 5 starts too is a big compliment) excited to go back soon! One of our new favourite places in London.

Lovely service and lovely place, but I found the food underwhelming and very small portions for the price you pay. All mains are £15-30 but are the size of starters, and the cheapest glass of wine is £11. That would be okay if the food was crazy tasty - but it wasn’t. The prawns were plain and the squid was fairly good. Disappointed. My main also came out 15mins before my partner and I’d finished before he started. There’s better more authentic places nearby for Greek food in Camberwell.

The food was very good but the service was abysmal - not forgetting you are charged 12.5% (in this case £22). One friendly server but very busy and always head down, and three newbies who didn't seem to know what they were doing. Dirty plates left on table for ages, new food arriving and they seemed to want us to clear and sort out the table. Why do we put up with service charge for terrible service? Won't be going back in a hurry.

For a starter we ordered Pitta bread, Hummas and Baba Ghanoush with a delicious salad served with each and the flavours were divine! I cannot recommend these two dishes enough. For the main course, we ordered Prawns and Steak Kebab which were equally delicious. If I ever have to return to Peckham, I will definitely make a reservation as there is a lot more on the menu I'd like to try!

What a charming little restaurant. Food was excellent, and they have a decent standard of wines.

Ok. No ocupado adentro. Pero un poco caótico. Artículos no disponibles. Entonces de repente disponible a mitad de comer. Tanto el filete (25 libras esterlinas) como el plato de merluza (25 libras esterlinas) eran 1/3 porciones. 4 pequeños langostinos tigre eran £ 15 ok supongo. Vino para casa 50 €. Y el servicio fue promedio. Dama amable sirviendo. Pero pensé 157 libras por 5 platos era un poco caro. Pero eso es Londres en estos días para cenar entre semana. Todo muy normal y nada demasiado delirante.

It’s a real shame PB charged £50 for a bottle of house white wine and then £15 per extra glass. We had wrongly assumed we were making a not too expensive choice as the prices were not on the wine menu. The food was delicious and the service very friendly.

Interesting but not many “multicultural clientele faces”….in fact NONE and in Peckham, Why is that?

Delicious Eastern Mediterranean food always top quality, this is my favourite restaurant in the area

Fantastic food, really very tasty, but very stretched service and pretty gross toilet. Not sure what was going on tonight.

We had lunch here today and felt that the place changed quite a bit. The food and atmosphere used to be exceptional. The service today was very slow even though we were the only two people in the restaurant and the food was not as good as we remembered. The prices have also gone up so we felt disappointed to have a mediocre light lunch that cost £75.

Very good meal with innovative Balkan inspired menu using fresh ingredients and with great flavour combinations. Menu is short but varied and wine list is interesting with staff able to provide suitable recommendations. Food cooked on charcoal with a lovely smoky flavour.

Lovely restaurant, very prompt and friendly service. Food was outstanding, pork skewers were some of the best we’ve ever eaten. Loved the food presentation. A very enjoyable evening!

Plates designed for sharing and a regular changing menu. Food is top notch and well priced. Definitely worth the walk. Best to book.

A proper hidden gem. Food is always amazing, so is the service and the setting. I visit this place on special occasions. Never disappoints.

The food was delicious and served with a smile They coped with me being gluten free with ease just making up the menu with what I could eat and there were very few options that were excluded

Great little local place to enjoy smal delicious plates and feel good about the money spent there. It is a no nonsense place, not a pretentious one and that is where it's charm lays. I would return and return anutime unless it loses this charm.

Loved it. Second year i spend my birthday here and the food is incredible.

Got there late and without a reservation.. yet they kindly accommodated us and even let us order from the menu which was totally unexpected. The food and service was lovely.. great experience.. will definitely be back!

A diez minutos a pie de la estación de Peckham Rye, un restaurante de barrio relajado. Servicio amable. La comida es maravillosa, en particular los buñuelos de calabacín. Pequeño plato de comedor. ¡Es tan agradable ver un menú interesante, con elementos que puede que necesite pedir una explicación! Mucho prefieren un menú pequeño y sabroso a la sosidad convencional.

Beautiful Mediterranean food at reasonable prices with nice selection of natural wines by the glass

The food was delicious and refined, the choice varied. We went on a Monday night so the atmosphere was understandably subdued which wasn't a problem for us. The only thing to note is the price for each dish and for drinks is rather excessive. The portion size is good however, and their recommendation of 5-6 dishes to share for 2 people is most certainly too much: 4 dishes would've been fine for us to share, and we have big appetites.

had a great time at Peckham Bazaar celebrating my husband's birthday. The food was really good and the people were very warm and helpful.

The food was delicious. We’d have preferred it if the plates had come out a bit slower as we were celebrating a special occasion, and it felt like quite a rushed experience with very little time to savour between courses or enjoy our drinks. The service was fine, but for these kinds of prices I’d expect the waiting staff to be a bit friendlier.

This restaurant is so beautiful but without fussiness. A lovely place to sit. The people working here were warm and lovely. The food is SO delicious. I want to go back right away to try the things on the menu I didn’t have space for. Every bite was heaven. I didn’t have any room left for dessert. So glad my dad did and ordered the melted chocolate, pistachio and ice cream. I am more into savoury but OH MY GOD this was exquisite.

Another fantastic meal here with top quality food and service. People think they will never get a chance able here because it's so popular but it was quiet on the Thursday we went so get booking.

Always fantastic food and great to have an outdoor seating area

Excellent food could not fault it at all, everything we ordered tasted wonderful and was truly delicious would thoroughly recommend it. will definitely be going there again. Made booking to celebrate a family birthday the staff and kitchen chefs made the experience great and sang Happy Birthday to us, they gave us a dessert with a candle made the whole event a wonderful experience and made us feel very special amongst a very busy and packed restaurant Thank you Peckham Bazaar

Qué decepción. Peckham Bazaar fue durante muchos años el restaurante de ir a Peckham/Nunhead. La cocina de John era digna de Masterchef y el lugar estaba debidamente lleno noche tras noche. La desintegración culinaria de los restaurantes en la cocina no mejor que una tienda de kebab ha sido impactante. La última vez que fui fue hace dos años y eso no fue brillante, pero todavía tenía algo del estilo antiguo. Mi visita esta semana fue terriblemente mala. La salsa con las ensaladas que acompañaban al babaganoosh y los buñuelos de calabacín era tan salada que no era comestible. Luego comimos tres platos principales, Brochetas de cerdo, chuletas de cordero y muslo de pollo abrasado. Las brochetas se precocinaron/recalentaron y llegaron tibias. Si la salsa no era de una botella, hacían un buen trabajo para que pareciera así. La piel del muslo de pollo estaba tan cocida que era un carbón negro denso y era imposible separar la carne seca del interior de la piel. Las chuletas de cordero no eran chuletas, sino un poco de hombro andrajoso con la piel quemada a un pedazo de nuevo. El olor abrumador de la carne quemada se cernía sobre todo. Las patatas estaban tan cocinadas que se habían convertido en papilla y alcachofa transformadas astutamente en una imitación insípida del sueco. La botella de vino (no son baratos) vino pre-corchado - así que ni idea de saber lo que había en ella. El menú aconseja especialmente que los platos sean pequeños, por lo que necesita 5 o 6 por pareja. No es cierto. Lucharás para superar dos cursos. Pero en serio te sugiero que no te molestes. Si quieres buena comida - entonces ir a otro lugar. Todos los demás lo han hecho - el lugar estaba casi vacío.

Such a disappointment. Peckham Bazaar was for many years the go to restaurant in Peckham/Nunhead. John’s cooking was worthy of Masterchef and the place was properly packed night after night. The restaurants culinary disintegration into cooking no better than a kebab shop has been shocking. Last time I went was two years ago and that wasn’t brilliant - but it still had some of the old flair. My visit this week was shockingly bad. The sauce with the salads accompanying the babaganoosh and the courgette fritters was so salty it was inedible. We then had three mains, Pork skewers , lamb chops & seared chicken thigh. The skewers were precooked/reheated and came tepid. If the sauce wasn’t from a bottle they did a damn fine job of making seem that way. The chicken thigh skin was so overcooked it was a dense black charcoal and it was impossible to detach the dry flesh inside from the skin. The lamb chops weren’t chops - but a bit of ragged shoulder with skin burnt to a crisp again. The overwhelming smell of burnt flesh hung over everything. Potatoes so overcooked they had turned to mush and artichoke cunningly transformed into a tasteless imitation of swede. The bottle of wine (they aren’t cheap) came pre-corked - so no idea of knowing what was in it. The menu specially advises that the plates are small - so you need 5 or 6 per couple. Its not true. You’ll struggle to get through two courses. But I’d seriously suggest you don’t bother. If you want good food - then go elsewhere. Eveyone else has - the place was almost empty.

Went earlier in today for lunch, the food was absolutely amazing and couldn't help myself but to order desert aswell.

Firstly, the food was all very tasty, well balanced and well presented The lamb pastille in particular was very good. However- the service of the food was very slow. A Greek salad arrived promptly then nothing for 20 minutes. We had to ask 3 times for the bread- supposedly a selection but not! We were informed late that the octopus was not available. It looked as if there was only one chef working - clearly short staffed for a Sunday lunch. The wine was very overpriced- I only noticed when I got home that we had been charged for a lager we didn’t have. Sadly a disappointing lunch

Enjoyed our visit. Nice food and wine. A little pricey but overall we enjoyed it.

I'm a bit torn as to how exactly write my review. It's a daily changing menu and the sample menu had one or two veggie main dishes. We arrived (for our wedding anniversary) and out of eight mains, not a single one was vegetarian. Not acceptable in my opinion. My husband is veggie and if we had known, we would have not booked the place. We asked about a veggie main, the waiter said there's nothing. Another one then came and said they could make shashuka. Well, that's breakfast/brunch, not dinner! He had to stick to starters which you don't want to do. I then ordered the fish main course to then hear it's not available. Well, why am I not being told and it's crossed out? He came back 5 mins later only to tell me that the fish is arriving in 5 minutes. What? The fennel salad arrived but without the blood oranges. Nobody said anything. I asked, the waiter went to check, never came back. The food we had was lovely but the overall experience was surreal. Not what I had envisioned for my wedding anniversary. Drinks expensive!

Fantastic food. Honestly, some of the best bread I’ve eaten. Strongly, strongly recommend getting the sirloin for main. My only suggestion to the owners… It’s a bit “Bazaar” that you can only get Tzatziki when ordering a starter… it’d be amazing to be able to pay for some dips to go with the bread.

Fantástico. Recomiendo encarecidamente el entrante de croquetas y el solomillo principal. Delicioso helado para terminar. Por favor, servidor tzatziki con panes para el entrante, ya que el pan era simplemente el mejor!

Vine aquí ayer para el almuerzo y honestamente puedo decir que la comida que tuvimos era absolutamente maravilloso. Los sabores fueron exquisitos al igual que la presentación. No puedo recomendar este restaurante más acogedor

I have been meaning to write this review for ages! Booked a birthday dinner here for 20 people at 6pm. There was a train strike that day so guests arrived up to 45 mins late. What the restaurant didn't tell us that the booked was for only 2 hours and they had another large party coming at 8pm! Understandably we were a late but I have had dinner with 2 friends that has taken longer than 2 hours and we were not informed of this before. Food was great but we felt like they just wanted us in and out, they were literally throwing meals across the table to get us out quicker and we had to eat our dessert in the smoking area (it was February so anyone out there was only smoking). For a nearly thousand pound bill and considering the table was booked for 20 people I can't understand why it was only 2 hours?!

Food was pretty good but the service isn’t very good on each of the few occasions I’ve been. Waiting 30 mins to order, forgetting what you ordered, an hour to receive food, didn’t clear any plates away all meal etc. Shame as the food is always good. Also expensive compared to local similar restaurants

Really nice place, tasty food and very good service. But not filling up. Portions are small for the price but tasty.

Seated outside in the cold despite reservation being for inside. Most wine and menu items were unavailable. Lamb was fatty but dessert was nice. Coffee machine was broken. Restaurant declined to provide a refund in response to email complaint - the explanation was that issues were due to the restaurant being busy but they would offer a £20 voucher (not all that helpful as no intention to return).

Where do I start ? A complete waste of time. The service is non-existant. First came the unpleasant surprise of finding that the menu was different from the online menu with fewer options and higher prices ! After waiting over an hour for one of the main courses we found out they hadn't even started cooking it (the place wasn't even busy ) the staff were completely dismissive. At that point we decided to leave and go to another restaurant as we were still hungry !

all dishes were delicious and the staff was nice …

I don't really want to write this review in case it gets inundated with bookings. I have been to Peckham Bazaar maybe ten times now, and every time feels like the first time. John and the team are remarkable and should be exceptionally proud of the fabulous experience every singe person experiences. The food is just magical, fresh, seasonal and not overwhelming in terms of portion sizes. It just keeps coming. The staff, the ambience, the decor is wonderful. Do yourself a favour and get yourself down there.

I booked PB about a month ago for my GFs birthday on Sat, 18th May, this evening (16th May) they rang to say they were cancelling our booking due to them having taken a booking for a private party. This restaurant have told me in me past, they prioritise booking from family and friends, but cancelling a booking with 2 days to go is unacceptable. If you do manage to get in the food and wine is good, but don’t be surprised If they ring and cancel you.

Lively ambience, fantastic food!!! Pleasant staff, really enioyed ourselves
