Levan, located just steps from Peckham Rye station, channels the spirit of European bistronomy into a welcoming neighbourhood setting. With an open kitchen, counter seating, and warm, pared-back interiors, this South London restaurant celebrates contemporary European cuisine with a menu that shifts with the seasons. The team takes inspiration from the great food cities of Paris and Barcelona, crafting small and large plates that showcase quality produce and inventive combinations. The natural wine list is extensive and thoughtful, built around low-intervention producers and designed to complement the food without pretension. The experience has been lauded for its balance of creativity and comfort, with critics noting both the menu’s playful depth and the relaxed but polished service. Dishes are made to share, often highlighting one or two bold ingredients, letting the simplicity of good sourcing shine through. With lunch served Tuesday to Sunday and dinner from Tuesday to Saturday, Levan has become a neighbourhood favourite in Peckham, ideal for casual fine dining, weekend lunch with wine, or spontaneous evening meals at the bar.
