The Magic of Jazz Lives On: Evening in the Universe at Toulouse Lautrec With hearts and stomachs full, we ascended to the Toulouse Lautrec Jazz Club, located on the second floor. The venue, intimate with its 20 tables and a cozy bar at the rear, immediately set the stage for a personal and engaging musical experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, reminiscent of a classic Parisian jazz haunt. Seated with drinks in hand, we awaited the night’s entertainment: Evening in the Universe, a band led by saxophonist Tashomi Balfour. An Evening of Musical Brilliance As the first notes filled the room, it was clear we were in the presence of consummate professionals. Balfour’s saxophone was the anchor, his tone rich and evocative, effortlessly weaving between melodic brilliance and playful improvisation. Despite a few technical hiccups with the microphones, the band remained unfazed, delivering a performance that was both polished and passionate. The setlist, a blend of classic jazz standards and innovative compositions, had the audience entranced. Each song unfolded like a story, leaving us eager for the next chapter. My feet tapped involuntarily, and I couldn’t help but sway to the rhythms—a true testament to the band’s infectious energy. The Supporting Cast The venue itself deserves praise for its acoustics, which captured every nuance of the music without overwhelming the intimate space. However, the experience wasn’t without its minor flaws. While the bar staff were efficient in ensuring drinks were flowing, their movement across the room was occasionally distracting. Yet, this small imperfection did little to detract from the magic of the evening. Final Reflections Toulouse Lautrec is more than just a restaurant or a jazz club—it’s an experience that lingers in the mind long after the night has ended. From the exceptional French cuisine to the spellbinding performances, it’s a place where art in all its forms is celebrated. For those who appreciate the finer things in life—a perfectly seared steak, a glass of fine wine, or the soulful wail of a saxophone—this is a destination not to be missed. Whether you’re a dedicated jazz aficionado or a curious newcomer, Toulouse Lautrec offers a night out that is as enriching as it is entertaining. As I left the venue, the melodies of Evening in the Universe still resonating in my ears, I couldn’t help but feel I’d discovered one of London’s true hidden treasures. Toulouse Lautrec is not merely a visit—it’s a pilgrimage for lovers of food and music alike.

I come to this cafe for breakfast every time I'm in London. Just a really authentic lovely and cozy British cafe. The service is always friendly and accommodating. The food is simply fantastic. This is British traditional food like I would imagine a grandma would eat. The sausage and the black pudding are simply incredibly delicious (and as a German I come from the land of sausages and think the sausage at breakfast is tastier than any here in Germany) plus the bubble and squeak and a few mushrooms are just perfect :)

This place is absolutely delightful. The pho is rich and refreshing. When you walk in the place smells like heaven. The portion sizes are generous, and the service is excellent - fast and friendly. The best place in London for pho by a country mile - the gold standard to lead as an example to others. They have earned themselves a new regular customer.

Good service, but don't use the toilets, I cannot believe how they had been left! Not the staffs' fault and if I were them I wouldn't want to clean them! It's the disgusting public for leaving them it that condition! I'm glad I didn't eat there!

Had a mid week dinner here and am sorry but it's just too expensive for what it is and where it is. I the food when it arrived was a good quality but the quantities were small. Went with a friend and we had 1 drink each and bill came to £60pp. This was started main dessert, think there's better value places on the same street for better quality and better pricing. Expected more from Camberwell.

ONLY REVIEWING PHONE SERVICE After explaining an extremely simple fork swap job, with all correct parts supplied for a BMX (perhaps the simplest bikes in existence) - many shops either didn't understand english, wouldn't fix a bmx, Evans cycles said they dont service bikes not purchased from them? And others were downright incompetant on the phone.... Call Machine - explain the same thing, the same way, he takes a second to think about the request, "yes shouldn't be a problem" and lets me know how to book in (can just leave bicycle with them). So listening 10/10, serving 10/10 and lets hope the work is the same. Thank you for being the only decent shop out of the 5 I called in your area.
