Restaurant Reviews

66 Great Suffolk St, London SE1 0BL

This Southwark restaurant is from chef and restaurateur Akwasi Brenya-Mensa who started it as a supperclub before bringing a permanent version to the Africa Centre. Here, the menu covers dishes and techniques from across the African continent, with some focus on his own Ghanaian roots.

593 High Rd Leytonstone, London E11 4PA

This small, family-run Thai spot in Leytonstone has become one of the city's best restaurants. From its regularly changing specials board and friendly, chaotic service to its legendarily good moo krob, people really love Singburi. It's genuinely worth crossing to the furthest regions of North East London from wherever you live.

9 Duke of York Square, Chelsea, London SW3 4LY

Housed in an architecturally eye-catching pavilion on Duke of York Square, Vardo is the Caravan Group's Chelsea outpost. The menu takes a more global approach to suit the area's international audience but you can obviously enjoy a top-tier coffee here too.

The Courtyard, 151 Sydney St, London SW3 6NT

Budget and Chelsea don’t appear in the same sentence very often but this perennially popular Vietnamese spot with a slightly eye-catching name has long been a good place to grab a bowl of tasty noodles in the area. Everything is made from scratch and the laksa is also worth a try.
