Loughborough Junction guidebook
Neighbourhoods
It's filled with the sounds of music, chatter and the rumble of cars going past - Brixton Village is worth a visit to eat out in, whilst Electric Avenue is a great place to buy produce from all over the world, and Brixton Station Market Road is brilliant for a cool drink in the Italian cafe, or for trying some Ethiopian street food from the market.
Restaurants to try:
- Fish, Wings n Tings - for jerk chicken or prawns
- Senzala Cafe - for crepes
- Eat of Eden - for vegan wraps and burgers
- Guzzl - fine food deli with all sorts. Great chocolate!
- Kaosarn - Thai specials
- Kricket - heavenly contemporary Indian food and cocktails

A total mix of awesome international food shops (try TFC/The Turkish Food Centre for olives, baklava, etc) and restaurants (from Vietnamese and British, to Turkish, Kurdish and Chinese) to useful supermarkets, newsagents, and the huge Cowling & Wilcox art supplies shop. Plus the quiet, leafy streets of Camberwell Grove and Grove Lane. It's a busy, bustling, elegant, messy London universe.

Park
It's a stunning park, filled with an array of things to do (from tennis courts to acrobatics bars, football nets) or places to sit and enjoy watching the world go by (the pond, the rose garden and the covered walkway are gorgeous, as is the nature garden, while there are plenty of benches all around to relax on).

Great pub on a quiet road in the neighbourhood. Inside, there is tons of space, and the recent refurbishment under new ownership means it looks lovely. Service can be a little slow, but it's worth it for the nice, easy atmosphere. Terrace out the back, too.
