The best restaurants serving British food in Lewisham London

Sonia’s food is the best! She catered for 20 people (there was enough for 30 plus!) and it was exquisite. She’s a gorgeous human who makes incredible food.

I highly recommend Rock and Sole Plaice in Lewisham! Their fish is perfectly crispy on the outside and delightfully flaky on the inside. The homemade tartar sauce and coleslaw are exceptional, adding a fresh and delicious touch to an already fantastic meal. Don’t miss out on this local gem!

Fantastic food, great quality, and portions. Made with love. Overall- excellent. The shish is recommended as is the home-made garlic and chilli sauces.

I’ve had two incredible lunches at Leo this week. The Gouda, cream cheese and burnt leek rosemary focaccia toastie was so good that I just had to go back. The next day I tried the scrambled eggs on toast. Wow! I had no idea that scrambled eggs could be so delicious and full of such interesting flavours. Leo is a happy, vibrant place to enjoy a relaxing, unhurried lunch and everyone working there was very friendly and welcoming.

This is my local chippy and I love it! Fish is always fresh, the chips are perfect and the staff are very polite and accommodating. I have been going here for years and never had a bad experience. The food is far better than the more expensive Brockley’s Rock. This is the place to get fish and chips in Brockley.

Love this cafe. Everyone is so friendly and down to earth.

Really good quality, large portions. Worth waiting for

Having just experienced a masterclass in bad service, I was moved to write a first-ever restaurant review. My wife and I walked in mid-afternoon without a booking on the off-chance there'd be an available table. After checking, the maitre d confirmed no tables inside - fair enough - but that we could eat outside unless we wanted to wait until 6pm to eat. Outside we went and sat in a heated booth with a reserved sign. The server then told us we would need to move but couldn't confirm what time the booth booking was due, and all the other reserved signs were just there to help manage walk-ins. Odd way to handle it, but no problem - we moved to a non-booth table and the server kindly moved a patio heater for us, took our order for a roast each and placed our cutlery on the table. He then returned to tell us that in fact there was no food available. As in, no honouring of our order, no starters available, no food at all. On questioning he said it was because they needed to 'protect advance bookings'. No answer to what would've happened had we waited until the 6pm table; seemingly no solution for walk-ins whatsoever. So we ordered a cold sausage roll bar snack. And then the cherry on the service cake - the poor server was sent out by his maitre d to collect our cutlery. No attempt by the maitre d to apologise, make any attempt to explain, comp the cold sausage rolls or offer us a round of drinks. If we'd been told at the beginning there was no food available, we would've understood and left without spending money on a round of drinks (and the cold sausage rolls). It will take quite something to convince us to return. To the owners of The Talbot - you've done a lovely job on the renovation, your food looks great, and you've created a great vibe. But your customers are your lifeblood and your people are your key strength and you seem to have forgotten both those essential points.

For me, as lovely as the staff are, it's not a great restaurant. It's very outdated, and it needs a massive revamp and a massive clean. It could be a wonderful place to get food, but it needs a proper in-depth. Makeover, clean new menu end more customer Focused.Unfortunately the restaurant is stuck in the 80s at the moment I do hope this restaurant gets a proper revamp before it's too late and we lose a great place in the community

Buen café, pero es a mediados de enero y la puerta está abierta y la calefacción está apagada. Se sentó en abrigos y se fue para ir a un lugar más cálido. También la música era un poco ruidosa para tener una conversación.

Absolutely love this place, amazing brunch. Have been lots of times. Friendly staff and perfect food and nice atmosphere.

Restaurant dirty and run down. Food terrible, pie undercooked underneath and over ooked on top. Pastry like leather, meat scarce and tasteless. Gravy bland and watery.

Breakfast bagel was amazing. Great music and trendy decor. They allow dogs too which is a massive bonus to us. Always looking for good spots around here as our daughter lives nearby. This place is a gem and we’ll be back on our next London trip
