The best restaurants in Blackheath Lewisham London

Came here for my birthday weekend. Was very pleased with the service and the atmosphere of the place. Was made feel welcome and to my surprise got a lovely birthday gift at the end of my breakfast. :)

Always a great experience from Natalia and the team - favourite burger in the area and lots of other great choices!

missing food on 2 separate orders

Everything was great, both the environment and the coffee. The staff were really kind, especially Parya. I will definitely recommend it to my friends

I’ve had a few very good orders but unfortunately today’s pizza was a disappointment. Burnt with some old chicken thrown on top of it. I paid for 2 additional portions of chicken and I’m sure that’s not what I received. On top of that, the pizza arrived cold because the courier didn’t have a thermal bag, just chucked it in his bike box

Food never arrived & restaurant rude when I called to report it, A real shame as I was a a regular.

I live locally and have been drinking here for 12 years. It's on a lovely position on the heath, and although it's expensive (even by London standards), the location and interior is good enough that I always saw it as a 'you get what you pay for' situation. However, after many years of visiting, I no longer drink here. The management seem to be under the impression that they're a cocktail bar. They pester you at your table every 10 mins trying to upsell food and drinks. Anything you order gets a 12.5% service charge added (even a pint). This new tactic of upselling / pressure selling has ruined the cosy pub atmosphere; you start to dread the staff circling and your stomach turns as they approach your table for the third time asking if 'you want any food'. There are other pubs in the area owned by the same brewery who do not employ this tactic. So it makes me think it's more a landlord / management issue than a corporate one. Honestly though, I'm not sure. Either way, after many happy years, I won't be setting foot in here again. If you're in Blackheath and looking for a pint, consider going to one of the other pubs in the village instead. The Crown has just had a refurb and is very nice. Equally the Hare and Billet is lovely. The Railways is ok, not bad, but not as nice as the other two.

Almorcé con un amigo en esta sucursal. La comida estaba bien, menos la hormiga en la mesa, pero era solo una para poder perdonarla. El camarero fue muy amable, pero fue una especie de bofetada - tablero. Nos señaló la mesa, en lugar de llevarnos a ella. . . . Interesante. . . El piso tampoco era el más limpio. Una vez que llegó la comida, el camarero pensó que era una buena idea colocar el recipiente para los condimentos, con las salsas, sal y pimienta, etc. en el piso, ya que no podía molestarse en encontrar un lugar en la mesa. ¡Eso fue lo primero para mí! ! La jirafa normalmente es un buen lugar para comer, pero no volveré corriendo a esta sucursal en Blackheath.

I was looking forward to lunch here with my daughter. I arrived and stood at the counter ahead of me and was waiting to have my order taken; after a while I realised that I was standing in the wrong place and moved further down. I explained to the young server behind the counter (long dark hair) that I had been standing in the wrong place, but instead of politely sharing my experience, she said "That's weird". It was no way to talk to a customer and put a real downer on my lunch. I later found out that 2 of the staff had been looking at me standing in the wrong place but said nothing, and were saying to each other "That's weird, why is he standing there?" Perhaps trying to humiliate customers is what was intended, but I won't be going back.

I believe the place is called Madeleine`s (they gave me a card with this name). I had a brioche and a coffee; they were both below average. You would aspect from those interdependent shops to have higher quality of food but unfortunately not. The food and beverages are better in chains like Pret-a-Manger or Starbucks

Very beautiful atmosphere, not too busy, I was presently surprise, it was just right for a Friday evening with friends and family. I went to the Alpha Lounge Restaurant and Bar with friends for my brother's birthday. One of my friends recommended it because she has been with some of her friends. Although the food was good, especially the fish, it was a bit on the pricey side, and the music was a bit too loud. Overall, we had a wonderful time, the customer service was great, friendly staff. We will be going there again.

Visited for lunch with my puppy and we were both made to feel very welcome. The food was great, the drinks brilliant and Phil was excellent behind the bar too. A real pleasure to visit.

Nice cafe, doesn’t display prices inside for cakes etc but are on the tables outside. Nice outside seating for a sunny day. Friendly staff, quick service

Food is always cooked to perfection. Nice and hot when delivered, and quick also.

Ordered caramelised onion tart.was swimming in a caramel like sticky sauce that it had been doused in, it was so sweet- think treacle tart- it was inedible. No refund despite not eating it- basically £16 for a salad. Awful meal awful service.
