Here's a great addition to the neighborhood: Deptford is not the fanciest in London, is a bit…read morerough, and a spot like London velo is really what it needs to became more livable; a meeting point for those in the area, to chill out, have a coffee and a treat, a tea, a sandwich, a slice of homemade cake, work on the laptop and enjoying the free wi fi. It has got an old school- hypster- vintage look and vibe and is also a bikers shop dedicated to the two wheels lovers: bykes and all the accessories are available here. The bagels are great, soft and tasty: I had a salmon one, very good, with cream cheese; great value for something as cheap as 4 and something pounds. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Located on Deptford high street, is a must go place in the hood. #love#it##

I enjoyed my hummus, avocado, and sun-dried tomato bagel sandwich with a latte. The bagel itself was on the smaller side but I was full for a couple of hours afterwards. If you're sensitive to caffeine, get decaf or ask for one shot of espresso only in your drink. I enjoyed my latte, which had just the right amount of milk that I could taste and appreciate the coffee blend itself paired with it. A highlight for me was getting to interact with their cute and sweet dog!

Turnaround is usually a couple of days although they will, sometimes grudgingly, do it quicker if you pester. Prices are comparable with rates in the city however they do a good job and this place is convenient if you are local. Service can be a bit hit and miss and is usually much friendlier in the afternoon when you have given them time to wake up fully.

I reached out to Roger one Sunday evening having found what a neighbour said were carpenter ants in…read moremy flat. Roger spoke to me at length on the phone and asked me to try to obtain a picture so that he could identify what it was so that he could tell me over the phone (at no cost) before I could decide what action to take. Very late that same evening, I managed to send Roger the picture and he could identify it straight away as being a German cockroach. Roger could tell how worried/distressed I was on the phone and offered to come over. He was punctual, extremely polite and very reassuring. He talked me through the process and explained how I shouldn't be alarmed but warned that there was a chance I would find a few dead ones over the coming days. No question was a silly one for Roger. He was extremely patient with me and available late in the evening/at weekend and worked around when it was convenient for me. True to his word, I did find a couple of dead cockroaches but the problem seems to have resolved itself. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Roger for being so honest and reliable. The "after sales" care has been wonderful and he has proven that he is just at the other end of the phone if you need him.
