I’m not one to frequent 5* hotels, but this is where my husband and I chose for our wedding night, because we liked the look of the traditionally English rooms and lounge area (which were as good in real life). It was such a perfect hotel experience. On finding out that it was our wedding day, the hotel upgraded us from a standard room to a suite, and gave us complimentary champagne on ice and a congratulations card. In the morning we had breakfast wheeled into our room on silver trays. We visited the bar/lounge area later and had a wonderful pot of tea with butter biscuits while reading the day’s newspapers. Fantastic!

This place only gets 3 stars because although the meals and large and filling, they are not the best quality Mexican food in the world. However, I would give the plave 5 stars for effort in it’s decor and Mexican enthusiasm! From the outside it looks like a Mexican ranch and inside the walls are covered with painted muriels of cowgirls and all such like. There are verious sized mexican hats that can be picked up and worn by customers (yes, I have done this) which make it a very fun place to eat! They also serve pretty good, albeit expensive, cocktails, which cover the same area of menu as the food - so no lack of drinking choice!

Hong Kong city is a large Chinese restaurant on the Old Kent Road. It has limited parking outside. The set menus are excellent with a not-too-long menu for individual dishes and the food really is very good, especially their 'sizzling’ dishes.
Some nights (every Friday?) you will be treated to Paul 'Elvis’ Chan, who does renditions of the king, singing to you at the table and often inviting patrons to join in karaoke style. So bad it’s brilliant, we were in fits of laughter. The perfect Friday-night-meal-with-your-mates venue.

Cheap and cheerful, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t get noodles here rather than anywhere else! There is a lot of choice, and food always comes hot and seemingly freshly made which is a bonus, and it’s cheap as chips. The staff are friendly, and they do take-away which I have taken advantage of many times. There is a good view of Camberwell as you sit and eat your noodles next to the big windows.

This is a great little tucked away bar, underneath the railway arches of Peckham Rye Station, and boasts a huge choice of cocktails. They have a two-for-one happy hour which is worth taking advantage of. They have a lot of DJs visit, and is a popular venue for listening to new musical talent (they use the back garden area for small private gigs), although this is occasionally disrupted by trains rattling overhead. A unique and interesting place.
