Lovely café that has an amazing bakery where they make everything in-House. Don't bother go to those overpriced cafes in Brockley - these guys do the coffee right!

The best croissant I've ever had! A real hidden gem on Lewisham Way. Delicious pastries and cakes, breakfasts and lunches. The selection is incredible, with something for everyone, and really friendly service. Would highly recommend!

Very very nice Moroccan cafe with amazing cakes and home made pastries. The couple who run this place are very sweet and kind, they get to know their customers quickly and are so welcoming and lovely. Every pasty and cake is home made in store. They are all delicious and such a treat. I always want to get them all when I see them. The lunch menu changes daily and is generally really good. Soups, paninis, curry and rice etc. it’s not the most amazing curry ever like a restaurant, but it’s a cheap and hearty home made authentic meal. I could sit all day here having coffee and cake and bites to eat. The coffee is very nice. Definitely recommend. Great local cafe. Price still nice and cheap.

Got a birthday cake recently from a family member. When asked where it was made they said: 'Delight House Cafe'. Was truly shocked as did not realise Lewisham borough had this sort of high end bakery. Real artisanship and love gone into this cake - it's personalised too! Highly recommend.
