Big pub at the top of Coldharbour Lane opposite the Ritzy. Downstairs it’s a normal pub. But it also has a separate entrance round the corner for the upstairs which has a big club, a comedy night, and in the summer an amazing outdoor roof terrace where they have all day parties. Check online for what’s on.

Tapas bar in the crypt of St Matthews church (the big square church in the middle). Nice Spanish food by candlelight in the crypt. Very cool place and lots of space, so you can normally get a table (and they take reservations). Bar has DJs until 3am at the weekends.

A short walk from the flat, but this is a good pub with a friendly crowd. It serves nice food and then has some decent club nights later on.

Just next to Hootenanny on Effra Rd, the old Conservative club is now a bar. It gets busy in the evenings with DJs playing mainly classic pop at the weekends. It also does a surprisingly good Sunday lunch!

There is an amazing slice of Brixton life in this huge pub. Live bands every night, often playing incredible reggae. You never know what to expect but it’s normally a pretty fun night out…

Parks & Nature

Beautiful London park right on our doorstep. A nice place for a stroll, a swim in the 50m outdoor pool (summer only) and to stop for a coffee in the cafe. You can also wander through the park to Herne Hill which has a nice farmers market on Sundays

Food Scene

Cool covered market with loads of small shops and quirky restaurants, nestled amongst the traditional market stalls. Fri/Sat nights it gets especially busy. They often have live bands and DJs. Try wherever you fancy, but some good recommended places are: - Kaosarn - Good simple Thai food, with lots of tables outside - Honest Burger - Well cooked burgers & craft ales - Senzala - "French crepes with Brazilian flair” - good place for brunch. - Federation Coffee - definitely stop off here for a coffee and sit and watch the world go by - Okan - Excellent Japanese Okonomiyaki (savoury pancakes) Most places now take credit cards, but if not there is an ATM to get cash in the market. A few of the places don’t serve alcohol but allow you to "bring your own” (BYO) - just look at the menu to see. The nearest place to buy is Liquor Supply on the corner of Coldharbour Lane.

Award winning and reasonably priced wood fired sour dough pizza. A Brixton institution that has now become famous across London. Expect to queue but worth a shortish wait…

Small restaurant set up in an old hair salon. A bit more expensive than most places but it does a fun 4 course tasting menu for £31. The food is inventive, seasonal and well cooked - although the portions are not very big. One of the few places in the market you can book a table!

Cool cafe and restaurant overlooking the swimming pool in Brockwell Park. It is a good place for breakfast, lunch, dinner or just for a quick coffee. It gets pretty busy because it once featured in Vogue...

Shopping

A collection of old shipping containers have been turned into shops, bars and restaurants. A nice place to stroll in the day or to hang out on a summer evening and listen to live music with a glass of wine... Gets pretty lively at the weekends!
