Good restaurant with outdoors area - recommendation please

[on_the_hill]

Hello,

My father in law has tasked me with finding a nice restaurant with an outdoors area to celebrate his birthday. Any recommendations much appreciated. Anywhere in East Dulwich, Forest Hill, Sydenham or West Dulwich would work.

Thanks in advance.

This is a bit further away than you are suggesting, but it's still pretty local and absolutely great for a special celebration - the restaurant at Brockwell Park Lido. I had a do there on Saturday and everyone was massively impressed. The setting overlooking the pool is lovely, and the food and service were excellent. It helps if you are blessed with sunshine and can sit outside, but inside still looks out on the water and is lovely too. We had a late afternoon swim, got changed there and then had pre-dinner sparkly and dinner.

Thank you for the reply, we must check it out. At the end he decided to have it local to him and not us, but thank you for suggesting, I'm sure we can find another excuse to go out!
