Little Nan's Bar
The return of Little Nan's Bar to Deptford—which it left in 2014 after being forced to close—feels as joyful. Those who have had the pure pleasure of visiting the bar while it was in pop-up form and roaming around London in anticipation of returning to Deptford will understand the "EastEnders" analogy. There are numerous references to Pat, leopard print, and china in this retro living room spoof in a railway arch at Deptford Market Yard.
Tristan Scutt, who identifies himself as the grandchild of this endeavor, is the owner of the small nan in question. While everything in the bar is old, he has made it very clear that there is nothing "shabby chic" in memory of his late grandmother, who lived to reach 104. Instead, there is a full-on '80s front room fetishism going on, complete with cocktail menus tucked away in books of Charles and Diana memorabilia, mocktails served in mugs with leopard print, soap stars in picture frames, and tons of couches covered in cats.
You can order cocktails by the teapot or order one by yourself and receive a complimentary cocktail umbrella. The cocktails are on the sweeter, funnier end of the spectrum; my Chief Girl of Deptford was a frothy concoction of gin, prosecco, lemon, and Morello cherry syrup that resembled a boozy Vimto. True British snacks include a great fish finger sarnie and, if you're feeling nostalgic, hoops on toast. Additionally, they put sparklers in our serving of hipster fries (dusted with paprika).
