Positives: Kennington and surrounding areas are blessed with an extraordinary number of Eritrean and Ethiopean restaurants – Red Sea on Walworth Road, the ever-popular Zeret Kitchen on Camberwell Road, St Gabriel Cafe on that sketchy little alley between Kennington Park Road and Kennington Lane, Harar on South Lambeth Road, Beza in Artworks (Artworks has now closed permanently), plus Bar 48 on Brixton Road only recently closed… we even bought some Eritrean food at the Archbishop Sumner school fete once. The pick of the bunch for us is Adulis on Brixton Road – great atmosphere, nice African decorations, Ethiopean lager, and the crazy odour of the coffee ceremony…
Negatives: Every Ethiopean or Eritrean meal we’ve had has basically been the same but that suits us just fine – the food is always delicious and fun if not too photogenic:
The boxpark in Elephant seems to have closed!
Does anyone know where Marcel and Son have gone, I am distraught 😩
we are also gutted about Marcel & Sons but hopefully they’ll be back: https://www.instagram.com/p/BrpscSClA5z/
There is a small Ethiopian place behind the corner of what used to be the lobster pot which is very good
That is St Gabriel Cafe mentioned above right? Not renowned for its customer service: https://www.timeout.com/london/restaurants/saint-gabriel-cafe
