It is such a lovely local spot, however, unfortunately, it was spoiled by a rude member of staff. I find it confusing when people choose to be impolite rather than empathetic.

Our puppy ate some unprotected rodenticide left out by the cafe - worrying for a pet and child friendly cafe to leave unprotected poison in the dining area? The cafe had agreed to pay our vet bills - this incident was caused by their neglect of health and safety. They have strung us along for 2 months, and now disappointingly gone back on our agreement and are refusing to pay the bills, but instead offering us.... a free coffee.... We had to rush her to the vet, she had an injection to make her vomit. The poison works by making rodent's blood very thin so they are likely to bleed to death. She then had to be under house arrest for 5 days whilst waiting for a blood test & results to confirm she hadn't absorbed any of the poison and therefore wasn't at risk of bleeding. After all of this, one would expect the cafe to not only pay the vet bills associated, but to offer some form of compensation for the stress this caused us and our puppy. If this had been a child, would the response be the same?

Regular visitor to this cafe. Friendly waiting staff and food is always freshly prepared and tasty. Favourite items are the cheese toasties and the scrambled eggs (both around the £7 mark).However, please, please, please sort out the ventilation. I always reek of cooking oil afterwards. Thank goodness they have a lovely garden area but this isn't a viable option when it's raining outside.

This is without doubt the best cafe we've visited in Peckham, run by absolutely lovely people. The food was all excellent - we had the quiche and salads, which were really generous portions of delicious food. It's a very welcoming place in a lovely setting under a huge tree on a pretty street - we will be back as soon as we can!

i’ve been here for a coffee a few times before and i’d typically had a positive experience, but this time i ordered food and my gosh. terrible. i’m not sure if they’ve hired new staff but the customer service i experienced was so poor and the food was so badly prepared, i ordered a sandwich which upon arrival sprawled over the plate like a 2am kebab. it was greasy, overpriced and foul tasting. avoid food from here

Lovely location but so sad the food was awful and totally overpriced. I had a flat white coffee which tasted good but was luke warm and quickly turned freezing. I had scrambled egg on toast and paid extra for salmon. I only wish I had taken a photo. The scrambled eggs where white, tasteless, the salmon was cheap, tasteless and looked like it had been frozen. Limp rocket dumped in side of plate, dirty knife and forks. So disappointing. It cost £30 which is truly disgraceful. All the staff look miserable. I'd advise to avoid at all costs. Cheap tasteless ingredients, total rip off but a good location. Whoever owns this should be truly ashamed!!

Genuinely not exaggerating when I say we waited over an hour for one ham and cheese toastie. Asked the staff where it was after 50 minutes and they said they forgot about it, then it still took another 20 minutes. Don’t bother !!! Overpriced for what it is too.

Lovley place seems to be popular with local people. We've missed breakfast offers, which looked good on the other people's plates, so we decided to stay for lunch. There were 4 of us, and we managed to get the table big enough, but the waitress approached us and insisted on removing half of the table for the other customers. Obviously, we didn't agree as it would not be enough space on one small square table to fit 4 plates, not to mention drinks. She walked off clearly upset without whiping the table, which was messy. Fortunately, further service was carried out by another much more pleasant waitress.

It always is sad when you see a friend excited to show you somewhere in their neighbourhood and regret or apology comes into their eyes. This happened with my mate today and I found myself trying to encourage him that sometimes service just.... isn't. I get the feeling any other day Petitou is a grand place to be. It has a pretty French Café look, with a little feeling of homegrown spirit. It's just the vibe if you like a coffee place to chat that is less commercial and outside of classic Peckham. When we went in we tried for a table, that we hoped could be cleared. We must have missed the beat between switch over. Yet, it kind of kept going downhill from there. No cutlery, mix up of our food order, having to ask a few times for other items. And for a newcomer like me, no real clarity on how much self-service was ours to do as sauces and other bits did not have a section. All of this is ok, but it saddened me and my friend that the addition of a tip is preferred at till point before any service is seen. It's hard to judge at that early stage if it's worth it. I said yes for kindness. I kind of regretted it later. I hate writing such a negatively tinged review because I think I could like this place but truly we just had a really bad time.

Abysmal SERVICE!! I was recently staying in London visiting family, we stayed for 5 weeks and everyday we went to Petitou as it is the closest cafe to my house. I kid you not, they got our order wrong 100% of the time !!!! We ordered 2 coffees, the same coffees, EVERY DAY A FLAT WHITE & A CAPPUCCINO And everyday the wrong size, or wrong coffee. It was laughable. I feel they started doing it on purpose as I started speaking VERY SLOWLY to them as I ordered. They were nice, but never greet you on entry, even if you're standing next to the till !! They seem to be very preoccupied by their hair, or the music, or each other. They were very communicative with each other. In front of you, while you WAIT to be NOTICED !?? Coffee was OK on the day my order was right. We did have to start going to cafes at East Dulwich to a avoid these moronic interactions. Good luck while you're the only cafe on or off Bellenden! Once competition arrives, I suspect you may lift your game.....I remember when you opened in 2003, seriously downhill from there!

Nice quirky little place with great food - although the service is beyond terrible. Went there 3 times, always forget to bring half of the food/drinks ordered. Waiters always come out with plates having no clue who ordered them. Also the staff is really nonchalant…. Wish they were a little bit more considerate! Would be helpful when people ordered you’d give table numbers so when they come out they know where the food has been ordered instead of interrupting everyone conversations outside by asking who ordered it. You’d probably benefit in having staff focusing on specific areas to improve customer experience.

Endlessly disappointing! This place has so much potential- gorgeous exterior and location, and the food is tasty but the service is abysmal and I've had so many bad experiences that I'm finally writing a review. The staff are nice but extremely inattentive - to the point that I once waited 20 minutes to be served even though I'd already told them I was there before I sat down- they didn't even need to spot me. Even though the cafe is not normally very busy it seems to take forever to make a coffee and I've never been there without something being forgotten or missing, with no apology given. Last time our order went to the wrong table and we were left with nothing before chasing it - if the staff checked on the tables or paid attention they would have realised that there were 2 people sitting at an empty table and 2 not touching the coffees they 'ordered'. Every so often I give it this place another go because I want it to be good and it's such a nice spot, but every time I'm disappointed. I might have given up for good now. I live in hope that this review might prompt some improvement 🙏

Petite is a lovely location despite being on a semi-busy road. The outside seating is shielded from the sun and noise under the beautiful large trees, which I often opt for against sitting inside. The menus are always dirty with coffee stains and in need of an update. A wipe in the morning should be fine as they are the shiny card? The food itself is pretty uninspiring with salad/quiche but always changing specials that are veg-heavy. The cakes are quite nice and fresh, the brownies and almond tart were tasty, however the pastries leave something to be desired. Brunch options are the usual egg/avocado based. Their bread is tasty. Service is incredibly slow and lacking. Upon arrival you will always see dirty uncleared tables that you just have to plonk yourself down on until a member of staff acknowledges you 5 minutes later. On top of this, you often wait at the counter ignored by the staff making coffee- again no acknowledgement. I feel they are always a bit busy doing nothing, eg a member of staff folding napkins on an indoor table forcing me to sit on the dirty table next to it (with a dead fly next to the vase of dead flowers). To close off my review, I myself am a smoker but do not like to see staff smoking sat at a table positioned next to a baby. It is very unpleasant to see and emphases the staff really do not want to be there, which they already show. I wish I wanted to visit more as the cafe itself is a lovely building. What is up with this place?

The perfect place to sit and have a coffee, watching the world pass by. It's tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the rest of Peckham but has a lovely, spacious terrace. If you like al fresco dining, this is the one cafe in Peckham that you should visit. The toasted sandwiches (especially the ham and cheese toastie) are very good, as is the mackerel pate, which is up there with one of the best I've had. On the sweet front, their fresh cakes are very good - I have a fondness for the PB&J Blondie. The staff are friendly too, which is a lovely bonus.

Such a lovely cafe. Perfect for breakfast, brunch or lunch. They also have a wonderful drink selection. I ordered the toast with scrambled eggs and salmon and it was delicious. Staff is really friendly and welcoming too. I brought my dog and one of the staff members even brought him some water and he got plenty of cuddles. The only thing I would say and I am not sure if that was maybe only on that day because the heating was not working but it was quite cold inside and that took away the cosy feeling that this cafe would def have if it would be a warmer during the colder season and maybe a couple of lights here and there.
