There are destination cafés and there are community cafés. Petitou is the latter. If you're looking for somewhere comfortable to ensconce yourself while you tap on your laptop or breastfeed your baby, this is the place. If you want local art and junk shop furniture in a peaceful leafy street, you'll feel right at home. And if you like healthy comfort food served with a smile and somewhere that positively welcomes children and vegetarians, then sit right down. The menu is all about old favourites such as Marmite on toast, own-made quiche, scrambled egg and bowls of soup, with nice touches like the salad selection served with warm flatbreads. Gooey carrot cake and plates of pastries sit next to a guilt-inducing range of cereal bars, so the choice is between you and your conscience. In this upwardly-mobile corner of Peckham, there is probably more exciting food to be had these days, and almost certainly more serious coffee, but few places with as big a heart.
