This casual Trinidadian restaurant excels at Caribbean classics and is the perfect spot to sample some of Brixton’s most best curried goat, hot pepper prawns and jerk chicken; no visit is complete without sampling the cod fish fritters and spicy chicken wings, either (vegetarians are well catered for with hearty pumpkin and chickpea rotis). Enjoy the Brixton community dining with housemade ginger beer or a glass of the rum punch.

This old-school Caribbean restaurant has been going for over 20 years and there’s a reason for that: It serves up unfussy Jamaican home cooking and has a convivial atmosphere, great cocktails and a fantastic reggae music soundtrack. Go for the classics such as ackee and saltfish, jerk snapper, sautee callaloo and ground provisions (intensely dense fried dumplings), and pair your meal with a large glass of Guinness punch.

Drinks & Nightlife

Part of a mini chain that’s branching out in Brixton, Barrio is colourful and full of the unexpected – which includes a caravan that’s been made into a seating area. Cocktails play with flavours from South America and bar snacks are a cut above the usual, from delicate ceviche to banging pork belly sliders.

There’s an industrial glamour to this bar that mirrors its sister joint Martello Hall in Hackney. The space is a cavernous concrete shell dotted with metal fixtures and faux-Tiffany lamps giving a faded art deco grandeur. The drinks menu is impressive with inventive takes on classic cocktails, a great selection of wine on tap, and a fine choice of absinthe, which they serve in the classic French style. The bar also plans to produce its own gin.

This eclectic jumble of shipping containers is home to street food stalls, restaurants and shops – and of course, the odd bar or two. Our favourite is Donostia Social Club (see above), but you can also grab a pint at Brixton Port Authority, where beers are sourced from south London breweries – from Gipsy Hill to Anspach & Hobday. Neighbouring bar S11 does a strong line in spiced rum. Or time your visit to Pop to tie in with tastings at The New Zealand Cellar – the UK’s only retailer solely dedicated to wines from NZ.

An alchemist’s laboratory of tinctures, potions and spirits dominates the tiny and sometimes frenetic front room at Shrub & Shutter, a cocktail bar on Coldharbour Lane. Puns are used with abandon on the drinks list – gimmicky though this may all be, the cocktails are expertly made and will wake you up big time when paired with the bar’s blaring hip hop soundtrack.
