Pop Brixton London

A hub of food, drinking and dancing

Ellie from London

About me My name is Ellie and I’m a born and bred Londoner, obsessed with all things travel related.

""Pop Brixton" in London is a quirky centre of scrummy street food, stylish restaurants and specialised bars. It's a perfect pit stop for a big night out."

Located in South-West London, Pop Brixton is a quirky centre of scrummy street food stalls, stylish restaurants, and speciality bars. During Fridays and Saturdays, DJs and musicians take to the stage, making Pop Brixton the perfect pit stop for a big night out.

The space is a temporary project that has transformed disused land into a creative hub for local, independent businesses. If you're keen to discover some of South East London's top up and coming brands, have a gander around the space and become inspired.

Although open-air during the summer, in the colder months, fortunately, the hub is roofed. This makes Pop Brixton a cosy spot for a bite to eat or to enjoy a couple of bevvies with friends. Whatever you fancy, Pop Brixton is sure to sell it, from the fresh Caribbean flavours of Mama's Jerk to your favourite bottle of red at The New Zealand Cellar. After your meal, why not browse the range of quirky shops selling everything from second-hand jeans to jazzy sunglasses?
