If you're hunting for one of the best bars, Jumbi should be top of your list. More than just a place for a drink, it's a community hub where music, culture, and conversation collide. Inside, the earthy décor, candlelit corners, and vinyl-lined walls create a welcoming space to linger over a rum cocktail, local beer, or natural wine. With small, flavourful bites and an ever-changing soundtrack of global grooves, Jumbi captures Peckham's creative spirit.

Helmed by Rhythm Section boss Bradley Zero, Jumbi is a hi-fi bar in Peckham where dancing is not just encouraged, but irresistible. Jumbi sees a steady stream of weekly events – from DJs at the weekends, to live music, open decks and quieter book clubs during the week – plus, they also serve a menu of Afro-Caribbean bangers (think curried chicken, oxtail stew, plantain nachos, patties and doubles). It’s worth checking out for the rum roasted pineapple alone.
