132 Lower Marsh, London SE1 7AE

This vintage cafe survived the threat of closure recently to the delight of its many fans. It serves up great coffee by day, moving to more of a cocktail vibe in the evenings. The vibe is homespun and the welcome is always warm.

97 Lower Marsh, London SE1 7AB

Chef and founder Sugen Gopal's boutique restaurant group serves up a easy-to-like menu of Malaysian and Singaporean street food. The fabulously flaky roti canai are obviously what to order here alongside other classics like nasi lemak and beef rendang.

41-45 The Cut, London SE1 8LF

The South Bank branch of the Flat Iron empire is a great spot to hit up if you're after good, but affordable steak. There's always the signature flat iron cut along with beef dripping chips on offer along with soft serve for dessert.

Southbank Riverside, Belvedere Rd, London SE1 7PB

Tokyo-born Chef/Proprietor Daisuke Shimoyama grew up working in his uncle's restaurant before training up as a chef (and also a sake sommelier). The ex-Umu chef has moved from running his own street food stall to this bricks-and-mortar spot on the South Bank serving up an omakase menu at lunch and dinner.
