Food Scene
I Go Chop does something completely new for Nigerian food in the area, which is to serve it in a thoroughly modern takeaway restaurant.
We love their tomato-rich Jollof rice and satisfying beef stew, which comes either as it is or folded up into a ‘Nigerian burrito’.
If you like heat, get their house-made hot sauce – it’s punchy alright, but the flavour is exceptional too.
They also sell boozy slushies, which are packed with artificial colourings and alcohol – we’re into that.

Daily Goods was Camberwell’s first trendy coffee shop, and it continues to fly the flag for those who like their coffee cold brewed among a collection of succulents, printed canvas totes and locally made pastries.

It’s a good job pizza cooks in minutes because the demand for tables at Theo’s is incredibly high. We’ve loved them from the start for their dedication to the specific Neapolitan style (there’s actually a strict definition set out in an 11-page document by the Associazone Verace Pizza Napoletana).
The quality of ingredients is excellent, with Strianese San Marzano tomatoes and their own Camberwell scotch bonnet ‘nduja (made in collaboration with The Camberwell Arms over the road), topping the pizzas.
The menu is short and sweet, and there are no bad choices. As well as the pizzas, we love the mortadella with gnocco fritto, which are small, puffy fried breads from Emilia Romagna.

Drinks & Nightlife
Stormbird specialises in craft beer with a staggering range of options to choose from so be warned, it will take a little while to absorb them all.
We love their hand-drawn pump clips and the all-round vibes, including the fact that they’re relaxed about people spilling out onto the pavement at the side. Despite the traffic, it’s a lovely spot when all the doors are flung open in summer.

The Sun next to King’s College Hospital (formerly the Son and Doves) still looks oddly unfinished but is a good place for a pint if you're around that area, and it also has a beer garden for the summer.
