Bonnington Centre Café

Located just off the suitably bohemian environs of Bonnington Square, this vegetarian restaurant – decked out with endearingly mismatched chairs and tables, and dripping candles in the evening – is community-run, and uncommonly friendly as a result. Local chefs take their turns at the helm each night, so the cuisine – and therefore rather inevitably the standard – varies wildly. The prices however are consistent, and low: £10 for three courses (and BYO). On our last visit, the food far exceeded this price tag: mains of just-so penne panna, packed with porcini mushrooms, and comforting tomato nut roast were both accompanied by a beautifully dressed bean salad. Help yourself to crockery and cutlery, and note that Thursday is vegan night. We've had so-so meals in the past, but caught on the right night (check the website for details of who's cooking), Bonnington Square Café offers one of the best dinner deals to be found in south London.

Had lunch here for first time last week. Service scatty but food was good value for money. Will go back to give it another go.
just discover this place recently. really enjoy the atmosphere and the fact the cooks and menus keep changing. had some great food, some nights are even organic and buy local food or from peoples allotments! yet still served up at a bargain price. had great food on all the nights i visited. my bf is vegan so it helps they cater for this on many nights including thursday when its all vegan! how fantastic... well done, great community project, what a rare find!
very friendly and intimate, delicious food.
had a lovely time here - food was great, the place was very warm and friendly and we finished off with an excellent pud!
I must have had the misfortune of getting the wrong night in Bonnington Square Cafe. Table booked for 7 we sat promptly and looked forward to a delicious sounding meal. At 8.55 the main meal arrived and it wasn't worth the wait.... I've tasted better baby food. Save yourselves the time and money, throw a few veg in a slow cooker and you'll get a better result. I won't be back.
