Local expert Lauren O'Neill said that Camberwell 'is brilliant because it's loads of things at once', and because it crams the best bits of southeast London - 'the young-at-heart vibe, the independent spirit, the multiculturalism' - into a 'green, community-oriented little patch'. Lauren picked out the food options on Camberwell Church Street as 'the stuff of legend', shouting out legendary Xinjiang restaurant Silk Road, gastropub The Camberwell Arms, Nandine's Kurdish cuisine, the much-hyped Toad Bakery and top-tier sandwich stop Cafe Mondo.
