Mezzo

On Brixton Road at the Stockwell end of Lambeth, Mezzo is a Lebanese kitchen built around the mezze table, where fresh pita arrives with the likes of tahini hummus, fattouch with sumac and croutons, and a warming merguez shakchouka. It's a modern, health-minded take on Lebanese comfort food that still rewards a long, generous meal — think herb-packed tabbouleh and plates made for sharing. Open every day from 9am to 6pm, with outdoor seating and wheelchair-accessible entry, it makes for an easygoing neighbourhood spot for unhurried eating.
