Did you know

The arches sit on London's earliest railway viaduct and were originally used to stable horses and carriages before being opened up as air-raid shelters in the Second World War; the redevelopment won Best Heritage Led Project at the 2017 London Planning Awards.

Local tip

It's right next to Deptford rail station, so it's easy to combine with the street market or a stop at Little Nan's Bar. Go for lunch or early evening when most of the arch kitchens are open.
