Eating and drinking in Greenwich

Greenwich is full of all sorts of places to eat, including traditional and modern British pubs, restaurants, cafés and bars. Here are some of our favourites:

• Greenwich Market is home to food stalls serving up delicious dishes from around the world, vegan treats and freshly roasted coffee.
• The Parkside Café & Terrace at the National Maritime Museum is the perfect place to sit outside and enjoy views of the park while enjoying a glass of wine and a delicious hot meal. There is a special children’s menu too.
• Looking for a classic British dish? Head to Goddard’s at Greenwich. A family-run business since 1890, Goddard’s pies include minced beef, steak and ale and cheese and onion, all served with mash.
• Experience an afternoon tea like no other underneath Cutty Sark. Visit the ship to learn about the famous tea clipper, built to transport tea to Britain. Then enjoy a traditional Cutty Sark afternoon tea underneath the ship. Pre-booking is required.

Please note: depending on when you visit and current government safety guidelines, not all of these cafes and restaurants will be open. Please check with the individual premises to confirm
