Brewbird
29 Peckham Road, Camberwell, London, SE5 8UA
Brewbird have always wanted to serve more than just coffee (which is still one of the smoothest brews you’ll find in Camberwell!), with their chefs working hard to constantly create new fresh dishes. Some of their previous daily specials include Cauliflower and peppers in a harissa and tomato sauce, topped with feta and served with pitta, perfect for a hot summer’s day.
