With a rich mix of culture and smells, Peckham is one of the most ethnically diverse districts in London, with communities from Bangladesh, the Caribbean, China, India, Ireland, Nigeria, Pakistan, Turkey, Eastern Europe and Vietnam. Discovered by creatives because of its exciting cheap spaces, the opportunities offered by this, and its’ proximity to the East on the overground, Peckham has grown in cultural ‘cool’. The secret is well and truly out, so before the developers get their grubby hands all over it come and take a wander around.

Arguably the best coffee in Peckham tucked away pretty close to Peckham Rye station but across the other side of Rye Lane. Really friendly staff whatever the weather and trust me these guys feel the weather, there’s no door and the window’s always open! They serve perfectly poured lattes, flat whites, hot chocolate etc.. and some great little sweet things to eat, the highlight being Casava toast smeared with coconut or pineapple jam. I’m slightly addicted to their bitter/sweet cocoa grated onto a milky coffee of my choice.
