Reasons to go
Full description
40 Maltby St sits along Bermondsey's arch-lined Maltby Street market strip, an area known for small, independent food and drink spots rather than big-name restaurants. Its budget-friendly pricing and no-booking policy point to a casual, drop-in style of dining built around a short, changing menu of small plates alongside a well-chosen wine list.
With a relatively high hidden-gem and local score compared to its must-see score, it reads as a spot favoured by regulars and locals more than a bucket-list destination, suited to a quick, relaxed lunch or dinner. It works well combined with a wider wander through the Maltby Street market area.
