Where to dine alfresco in Bermondsey as London lockdown lifts
La Lonna Pasta available at Flat Iron Square
Alfresco dining is back in Bermondsey!
Longer days and increasing temperatures - something we’ve all been waiting for. Spring is in the air and lockdown is easing; we are ready to sit down and enjoy a good meal together, with good company.
We might not be able to travel the world yet, but our taste buds certainly can. Lockdown restrictions are slowly being eased and we are more than excited to welcome alfresco dining back on the 12th of April. With many fantastic local businesses in our neighbourhood, we have created a list of 5 alfresco dining places to make a reservation in Bermondsey.
