The 22 Best Date Night Restaurants In London Right Now

"Jazu Bar on Deptford High Street makes an otherwise repetitive pasta and wine date night, a lot more exciting. On busy nights, long benches spill out onto the street and cackles of laughter draw passers-by over to look at the menu. The kitchen residencies change regularly which suits the cool atmosphere. And the state-of-the-art sound system and chic DJ booth makes it a step up from most neighbourhood bars." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley

Jazu Bar - Review - Deptford - London - The Infatuation

"Jazu Bar has made this otherwise pedestrian end of Deptford High Street—with an Asda, a butcher, and a hair salon—a scene. On busy nights, long benches spill out on to the street and cackles of laughter draw passers-by over to look at the latest kitchen residency menu. The impromptu street party feel and state-of-the-art sound system and chic DJ booth make it a step up from most neighbourhood bars. Come for a relaxed night out and an expertly made pineapple sour, or drop by midweek for a beer at the bar. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch" - Sinéad Cranna

London’s New Restaurant Openings

"Although this Deptford spot calls itself a bar, dishes like rabbit croquettes, dry-aged short rib burgers, and beef tartare sound like they make for great snacking food. At Jazu, there’s also a record-filled wall, a disco ball, and listening sessions that seem ideal for when you want to dance but hate clubs. We recently checked out Jazu Bar. Read our first thoughts here.   " - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak

The 14 Best Restaurants In Deptford

"Jazu Bar has made this otherwise pedestrian end of Deptford High Street a scene. On busy nights, long benches spill out on to the street and if the impromptu street party feel doesn’t tempt you over, the dry-aged short rib and chuck burger should. The snacky bar menu doesn’t stick to any particular cuisine—think taramasalata, jerk pork chop, padron peppers—but suits the atmosphere, which, courtesy of a state-of-the-art sound system and chic DJ booth, is a step up from most neighbourhood bars.

The 16 Best Burgers In London

"Jazu Bar—a Deptford spot with a snacky, cuisine-hopping menu—makes a dry-aged short rib and chuck burger that demands our sole attention. This is a burger for people who like alone time with the barbecue, or get a kick out of a chat with the butcher. The meat is the star—a thick, perfectly pink patty that dribbles juices into the bun. Plus the caramelised onions get all mixed up with the melting gruyère and chilli mayonnaise. You don’t need chips. This stands alone. " - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna

Really impressed with this spot. Cool hidden vibe with great music — there was a DJ spinning chill vinyl tracks all night, which gave the whole place a relaxed but stylish energy. We had a round of cocktails and wine, and everything was top-notch. Creative, balanced drinks with bold flavours. Definitely not your average bar menu. Food was a surprise highlight. We had the crispy pork belly, potato fondant, green curry ricotta dumplings, and squid — every dish was beautifully presented and really well-balanced in flavour. The dumplings especially stood out — rich, a little spicy, super satisfying. It’s kind of a “shop-in-shop” concept — the kitchen features rotating chefs, which keeps the menu fresh and interesting. Service was friendly, and the staff knew their stuff. Great for small groups or a date — feels intimate but lively. Would absolutely go back.

My experience here was a mixed bag. I had walked past many times and thought that it looked like a really cool, vibrant place that I was excited to try, particularly as they had Gorka as their guest chefs and the menu looked incredible. I visited with a friend and we ordered the following: Potato fondant £7 Green curry dumpling £10 Squid £16 Malted toast £10 I am not a chef, I know that overheads in London are challenging, and how the menu is priced is likely similar to equivalent culinary projects. Nonetheless I found it cast a cloud over an otherwise lovely evening because it did not seem to be in line with the portion sizes and ingredients used. Everything appears to be made from very accessible and affordable ingredients, and while I appreciate that skill and labour are required to transform them into their final forms, it seems realy crazy to me to get three pieces of squid, potato and onion (which are often considered poor food) in the squid dish for £16. The dumpling was also somewhat undercooked in the middle, and we all know that this is just made of flour, which is perhaps the cheapest of all ingredients. The potato fondant was good but it's just two small pieces of potato (plus the lovely sauce, but I am struggling to find £7 worth of food here). The malted toast was lovely but incredibly caramelised to the point of being hard to break through, and honestly the texture when I managed to break off a piece with my spoon was just toast. I suppose at least it was not missold! But overall, this all felt like the emperor's new clothes of food - very inexpensive ingredients in small portions for an extortionate markup. I wrote all this to Jazu in an email where I requested some price transparency in light of the disparity between the affordable ingredients and the hefty markup, but have not received a response (3 weeks since the date of writing at this point).

Feel very lucky to have somewhere like Jazu on our doorstep. We came for dinner and enjoyed small plates for one of their guest menu/chefs but the overall vibe of the place is what makes it so great. Tunes are awesome, the drinks are really creative but not pretentious and the service is top drawer. Long live Jazu

We had to squeeze in a relatively short visit whilst travelling from Birmingham to London for the day. Table service from the team. The service itself was very friendly and helpful. The space is quite minimal but comfortable. The soundsystem is a a centrepiece to the venue. Looks stunning, sounds crisp. We didn’t get to experience it at its full potential as it was still early evening and it was set at a perfectly comfortable listening level. The music playing at the time was a mixture of Jazz and Funk and made a most welcome refreshing change to generic music of many venues - exactly why we wanted to visit. The drinks were delicious, including my non-alcoholic cocktails. We only had a couple of the small plates by Grillbird but these were also very enjoyable. Highly recommend visiting - we will be back to enjoy a night out as soon as we can. 🙏

Jazu Bar is a lovely place for cocktails or gourmet dinner. Checked out their Madagascar food evening and was impressed with the food quality and taste. The music played on vynil, the dim light, minimalist decor and really good sound system created a lovely atmosphere. Recommend booking a table in advance as the place tends to get quite busy on the weekend.

Went to check out their sound system and was not disappointed. Every tune the DJ played sounded mega and there was a great vibe. Some great Old Fashioned cocktails served by really welcoming bar staff. Didn't get the chance to try the food but will definitely be heading back.

Amazing guest chef and some creative and delicious cocktails!! The bartenders were so attentive and clearly really good at what they do. It was a little crowded and cramped so I’d recommend visiting on a weekday if possible when it’ll be less busy. Music with the chatter of people made it a bit loud and hard to appreciate the sound system but again this could be avoided visiting not on a Friday or Saturday. Otherwise the DJ was great and vibes were so cool. Nice decor and layout. Will be visiting again

Impressive English breakfast (+ black pudding) - I think the best in Deptford/Greenwich/Lewisham and one of the best I’ve had in London. Unusual to see crisped up fried eggs in an English breakfast - excellent. Hash brown was actually more like a rosti - better than a hash brown . Chilli crisp oil (made from scratch I think?) is available , which was welcome. Cocktail was decent , but I hope they expand and diversify their cocktail list in future
