Westcombe Park is a quiet, largely residential corner of Greenwich sitting between the busier stretches of Blackheath and Charlton, and its dining scene is suitably local in scale, with good-value pubs and a small Indian presence that punches above what you'd expect from the area. It's one of the more affordable parts of Greenwich, and the neighbourhood has a pleasant, unhurried feel that makes an evening here genuinely appealing if you're visiting nearby Greenwich Park or the Royal Observatory. The pubs in particular tend to be the kind that still feel like they belong to the community rather than to a formula.
Mixed residential and local high street stretch between Greenwich Peninsula and Charlton football ground; draws beer enthusiasts and match-day patrons.
