Heaps Café
Definitely one for the carnivores, Heaps Café is a deli and diner that specialises in juicy gourmet sausages. Its signature bangers feature in nearly every item on the menu, from breakfast baps and full English fry-ups to sausage rolls, hotdogs, and sausage and mash. If you’re not hungry enough for a proper meal, you can even buy a single sausage on a stick.
Zaibatsu
You’d be forgiven for missing Zaibatsu when walking along Trafalgar Road, but at this unassuming takeaway restaurant, the food is anything but unremarkable. There’s a sizeable menu of Asian fusion dishes, including sushi, finely cut sashimi, crisp salads, noodles and sizzling tempura. Particularly recommended is the omakase sashimi selection, a seven-piece assortment of sashimi made with the freshest fish from the day’s catch and served as tender slices alongside a soya dip.
Champagne + Fromage
As you’d expect, the name of the game at this quaint French spot is wine and cheese. One of three London branches, the Champagne + Fromage in Greenwich sits just outside the neighbourhood’s namesake market and offers a delicious selection of charcuterie, bubbles and French delicacies.
Goddards at Greenwich
Generations’ worth of expertise is packed into the pastry at Goddards, a legendary restaurant serving up London-style pie and mash. Owned by the same family since 1890, Goddards specialises in proper London grub – think filling, meaty pies (though there is now a vegan option on the menu) accompanied by a dollop of creamy mash and a generous scoop of liquor. Other traditional dishes to try with your pie include jellied eels, a fruit crumble with custard, and bread and butter pudding.
The Hill
The Hill is an Ecuadorian-owned restaurant that serves up Mediterranean cuisine with a South American twist. Whether you’re a ceviche lover, paella enthusiast or enjoy stacking up tapas plates, there’s a great selection of Spanish and South American dishes to choose from (plus a pretty sizeable pizza menu). The restaurant is a stone’s throw from Point Hill, Greenwich’s scenic lookout.
