Dulwich Picture Gallery Café is located at the gallery at 14 Gallery Road, surrounded by the gardens of this historic art institution. Visitors can use the café independently of an exhibition, making it a useful neighbourhood destination as well as part of a day at the gallery.
The kitchen serves brunch, lunch and lighter refreshments, with a daytime menu suited to the gallery's opening rhythm. Egg dishes, sandwiches, salads and changing plates provide options for a full meal or something quick between the collection and temporary exhibitions.
Coffee, tea, cakes and baked treats make the café equally appropriate for a short stop. Vegetarian and vegan choices are available, and the balance of sweet and savoury food helps families and mixed groups find something across different appetites.
Indoor seating offers shelter throughout the year, while the garden setting is especially pleasant in warmer weather. Open from Tuesday to Sunday, the café provides a relaxed place for breakfast, brunch or lunch in the quieter surroundings of Dulwich Village.
