Review of Balfour

29 Jan 08, 16:45

Balfour out of five! 4*

I work really close to this and only noticed it a couple of months ago, because it's undergone something of a transformation and is now quite a cosy, trendy little hotspot for lunch or dinner.

The food is a pan-European mix of Italian, French, and British dishes, and their choices are well-thought for a smaller menu. Their set lunch menu is superb- a great choice of dishes that seem to change daily, and two courses for £6.95. The staff are always friendly and very accomodating. There's definitely a family-friendly feel here as well, although its location means that most customers are business types, or hip young couples checking out the Brunswick centre opposite. When faced with the identikit chain restaurants there, I'd happily choose this place over Nando's, Starbucks, or Strada.

Best thing about where I live The shops and cafes on North Cross Road. The fact that East Dulwich does not tolerate large shop chains. The cheap-as-chips Mondays at the Peckham Multiplex. Oh, and Dulwich Park.
Worst thing about where I live The state of the floors at Peckham Rye station. Really guys, sort it out. Um, and welovelocal people? I don't live in Nunhead!
