Where do BR8 locals go?

Bluewater

Bluewater

Bluewater is like shopping at Westfield but it's outside of London and the parking is free!! And the variety of places to eat is awesome. Five Guys is the place to go for the best burgers!

The Bickley

The Bickley

This pub set within a beautiful period building next to Chislehurst Caves has a warm atmosphere, a wide range of ales and delicious pub grub.

Shampan 2

Shampan 2

A tasty Indian restaurant serving classic curries and speciality dishes too.

Balkon

Balkon

I certainly recommend Balkon on Chatterton Road. It serves fantastic traditional Turkish meze and delicious grilled meats.

Tamasha

Tamasha

An Indian restaurant and bar, which even has a hotel too! Fantastic curries that are not your average Friday night food. Bit pricey but well worth it!

Oxleas Wood Cafe and Severndroog Castle

Oxleas Wood Cafe and Severndroog Castle

Severndroog Castle tea rooms do super food and jolly posh teas in the considerately renovated folly albeit with sometimes random opening hours, check the website! Oxleas Wood Cafe is always open and always makes for a pleasant break with plenty of space for the kids to play and dogs to be run.

Bromley Civic Centre

Bromley Civic Centre

Built in 1775, The Old Palace is a beautiful venue with immaculate grounds that is perfect for weddings.

Cinnamon Culture

Cinnamon Culture

The best Indian food in the most beautiful surroundings and with great friendly service too.

Shooters Hill Golf Club

Shooters Hill Golf Club

Such a well presented golf course with great views, you would never believe you were in London.

Ginger and Bean

Ginger and Bean

A cute coffee shop in Sundridge Park with homemade cakes and toasted sandwiches. The coffee is to die for!

Bare Necessities

Bare Necessities

An accessories shop on Regents Walk inside the Intu centre. It has every type of hair accessory you could need and lovely jewellery too!

Bar du Vin

Bar du Vin

Karaoke, members' club and late nights at the weekend, Bar du Vin is Bromley's only wine bar.

Railway Tavern

Railway Tavern

Home to the best bangers 'n' mash and one of the hardest pub quizzes, this pub offers a wide range of Indian pale ales. It's a stones throw from Bromley North Station, so it's perfect for commuters who fancy a pint after work.

Aqua

Aqua

A great mix of Italian and Mediterranean cuisines, cheap prices and fantastic service!

Charter Market

Charter Market

Fresh fruit and veg, as well as some other great bargains!

Why not explore the nearby areas of Sidcup, Bexleyheath, Chislehurst, Bickley, Welling and Sundridge Park

"The manor house at Eltham was converted into Eltham Palace in the 14th century, as the Plantagenet kings chose Eltham as their resting place when travelling to France."

I love this stunning converted coach house set within breathtaking Sundridge Park Golf Course.

Ryan Ninnis

Woolwich is affordable, it has great transport links, fantastic people and the new General Gordon Place is extraordinary.
