Carter Donnell used to work in New York's East Village at the acclaimed 9th Street Espresso café and he's now brought his coffee know-how with him to London. He began with a few square feet of space in a corner of Kinko Cycles shop in Soho's Golden Square and has now branched out to this larger, pared back venue on Church Street. Order a flat white, the most popular drink here, made with precision and flair.

This café cum-second-hand furniture shop has a daily changing menu of simple, freshly-made food with an emphasis on local and home-made produce.

With its mis-matched furniture, sack-cloth covered ceiling and an array of art on display — Maloko is a cosy, relaxed café. The owner, Cameroonian Francklin Eavagle, has one eye on the growing number of artists residing in Camberwell and envisions a 'community driven' crêperie where the local burgeoning creative community can meet, hold exhibitions and music events. He specialises in vegan-friendly, gluten-free galettes — made from buckwheat — as well as traditional crêpes.

Drinks & Nightlife
The Tiger is a welcome addition the Camberwell neighbourhood which currently suffers from a lack of late-night venues. Live DJs take to the decks every Friday night until 3.30am, so you can stay out late in SE5. Hurrah! The interior of the Victorian building is a combination of vintage furniture, dark wood and ubiquitous stag heads. Head there on a Sunday evening for live jazz and blues acts or take part in the 'not another pub quiz' night, every other Tuesday.

Beards and craft beer have become a fashionable pairing of late and this pub nearly always has both. With a strong focus on craft beer and ale, the Stormbird currently boasts 13 draught beers and a huge selection of bottled craft brews. The Stormbird doesn't actually serve food, which these days — when every old boozer has morphed into a gastro-pub — is quite a welcome change. To sample the full range of beers without getting completely inebriated, try the 'beer bat'; three small glasses which add up to just one pint in total volume, served in specially-made wooden trays.

This comfortable-as-an-old-shoe gastropub, brought to you by the team behind Anchor & Hope in Waterloo and the Canton Arms in Stockwell, with Mike Davies at the helm in an open kitchen, exemplifies and lays out for our delectation everything positive — to my mind anyway — that has been happening in restaurants recently.
