Petitou Cafe

Walk into Petitou and you'll immediately clock why Peckham locals have claimed it as their own. It's the kind of place where the espresso is pulled with actual care, the sourdough hits different, and nobody's trying to convince you a flat white costs £6. The space feels lived-in rather than designed—the sort of café where regulars genuinely chat to staff, and you'll find yourself lingering over a second coffee without feeling rushed. The brunch menu keeps things focused and thoughtful, letting decent ingredients do the talking.
