A flawless 5.0 rating across 43 reviews is no small feat, and this Eltham bar has earned exactly that. The hours run late — until 1am on Fridays and Saturdays — and with dine-in, delivery and a wheelchair-accessible entrance, it's an easy place to settle into for the evening.

Doors open at 6am on weekdays here — a properly early start — and this Greenwich coffee shop's near-flawless 4.9 rating from 90 reviewers speaks for itself. It's a daytime spot through and through, winding down at 2pm every day, with both takeaway and dine-in on offer. Wheelchair users are well catered for too, with accessible entry and seating.

Part cookery school, part gift shop, Greenwich Pantry is where Woolwich comes to learn its way around a kitchen, with hands-on classes covering everything from sourdough bread making and pastry to knife skills and plant-based batch cooking.

Accessibility is well handled too, with wheelchair-accessible entrance, seating and toilet.

A genuine all-rounder, this Blackheath spot works as family restaurant, wine bar and event venue all at once — a handy combination in the Royal Borough of Greenwich.

Throw in wheelchair-accessible parking, entrance and toilet, plus a 4.8 rating from 75 reviews, and it's easy to see the appeal.

More than your average coffee shop, this Woolwich café doubles as a creative hub, with an events calendar spanning candle making, crochet, terrarium building, live jazz and even a drag quiz.
