toastED


Recommended Posts

We went there for lunch on Saturday.


Absolutely loved everything about it, and the food was amongst the most delicious I've ever had locally.


The courgette salad with lemon and capers and a bit of parsley was very simple but the ingredients perfectly balanced.


We will definitely be back once we've saved up more pennies.


Would have spent less had we not succumbed to two glasses of (very good value) wine each :)


We eat out a lot less often than we used to, and I'd rather spend my money on one meal here than two cheaper ones at most places elsewhere in ED.


The service was absolutely excellent as well - friendly but not in-your-face friendly.


ETA: And we paid the service charge with pleasure, having first double-checked that it went to staff.

I'm hoping to have lunch at toastED today but when I go to the website and click on the lunch menu, I just get a .pdf with blocks of grey and no text. Anyone else have this problem? (I'm using a Mac). I emailed them and the address on the website isn't working. It'd just be nice to browse the menu before I go along.

They seem to have removed the Lincolnshire Poacher cheese from the potato, leek and walnut dish?


My OH had this on Saturday and it was absolutely delicious, with a runny cheesy sauce.


If only our table hadn't been in full view I would have licked the plate :)

They had a tasting on last night that's why. I ate there lady night and it certainly redeemed itself in terms of service (despite being busy) and food. Excellent on both fronts. Imaginative menu and great wine list at all price points. would highly recommend it. Well done toasted for getting it right! Just what we need locally and a great buzz.

Went for the first time last night with the wife. It was packed - on a Wednesday! Glad we booked. We were both utterly impressed. Delicious, thought-provoking dishes. Excellent service. Really buzzy atmosphere. Good, affordable wine. We think that toastED precisely represents what ED needed in the way of a new eatery, and hope that it proves to be the catalyst for more, independent restaurants/restaurateurs to follow suit. Can't wait to return!

Popped in this morning for a double espresso and toast just before 9 and it was quiet. Very good coffee, a small bottle of chilled water, which was replaced when empty, and toast made from lovely crusty bread. Selection of excellent conserves came in little glass containers. It came to ?5.51, which means it won't be a daily visit, but everything was good quality and the service was really friendly.

We visited for dinner last Saturday and it gets a definite 10 out of 10 from us. The food was great, service great and house wines delicious and very reasonably priced. Overall, not the cheapest meal out on Lordship Lane, but (imho) worth every penny. And we took some house rose home at ?5.95 a bottle ? great value and delicious. In fact we wanted to book for tomorrow night, but sad to say they are currently only open Tuesdays to Saturdays?.

Just wanted to add my vote of confidence for ToastED. Popped in last night and had amongst some of the best tasting food I've ever had on LL - yum! The house wine was delicious too & we left with a cheeky take home swing top bottle which I'll definitely be returning for a refill.


It also has a great atmosphere - full & buzzy but not too loud with a very mixed crowd. The service was fab too - attentive but relaxed.


I think it's a great addition to Lordship Lane.

    • The plans The developer Berkeley Homes have submitted a planning application to redevelop the Aylesham Centre close to the junction of Peckham High Street and Rye Lane, containing Morrison’s supermarket, car park, & petrol station, Aylesham shopping arcade and most of that side of Rye Lane between Hanover Park and Peckham High Street. The application is for a mixed housing, retail, leisure and commercial development, in buildings ranging from 5 to 20 storeys. Impact Local people who have studied the detailed plans think that the development would dominate the historic town centre which has evolved since the 18th century, and would ruin the Conservation Area which was awarded in 2011 'to preserve and enhance its character and appearance'. More than 65% of the homes to be built in this unimaginative over-bearing development will be unaffordable by most people who live in Southwark, and provide inadequate open and green space for this part of Peckham. Need for discussion This is such an important issue for south London that it needs wide discussion before the Council Planning Committee takes its decision (not before next Spring). A free on-line talk and discussion to clarify the heritage issues we all need to think about is being held on Monday 11th November 7-8.30pm. All will be welcome. Please register on this link: https://Defend-Peckhams-Heritage-2024.eventbrite.co.uk There are several other key issues raised by the plans which are being examined in the Aylesham Community Action (ACA) campaign. You can find the link to all that and other useful information here: www.linktr.ee/acapeckham The zoom session is being arranged by Peckham Heritage the local group that has grown from the community work alongside the restoration of nine historic buildings in Peckham High Street through the Townscape Heritage Initiative. We hope that EDF members who value local heritage will be able to attend the session to hear and take part in the discussion, and report back to this topic so the discussion can continue.
