Food Scene

Kishmish is DELICIOUS. Lovely grilled meats and halloumi, and a warm aubergine starter which I'm obsessed with. I've never eaten in - but it's BYOB so very good value - they deliver via their website/phone or via deliveroo

Parks & Nature

The whole park is gorgeous, and holds a sports centre as well as kids playground, a boating lake, a maze - and dinosaurs!

This place is extraordinary! Apparently it used to be a sewage facility - and they decommissioned it 20 years ago and turned it into this amazing reserve. There's a huge pond with ducks to feed and wild scrubland for wild birds, as well as kids playgrounds and football pitches. It's HUGE!

Arts & Culture

The museum I have visited most in my life. It's a Victorian collector's museum - filled with specimens and stuffed animals, as well as musical instruments, curios and an aquarium. Seasonal exhibits are always great and the gardens are gorgeous

Essentials

I'm obsessed with this shop. Amazing food, dirt cheap. Parking is sometimes a bit of a pain as their car park is tiny so time it wisely

Getting Around

This station has a tram stop on one platform, and a train stop on the opposite platform, and each platform operates in both directions. It's weird but once you get your head around it it is really easy. Trams go to Croydon in 15 mins and trains go to London Bridge in 35

Shopping

Open at weekends, this warren of antiques and collectables stalls is always fun to browse. There is an organic market next door for snacks too.
