A bit unoriginal, but there's a Giraffe. I think the food is decent there, but you may have to wait a long time for a table.

As a native of the South Bank long before it became trendy I can see nobody has suggested anywhere which can be described as "locals knowledge"
Good

Eusebiovic,
That's because the developers have wrecked most of the old gaffs.
You have to wander a bit further south for some of them now, and I wasn't sure that he would want to do that. The riverfront now looks great, but is generally a series of chains and tourist spots, granted.
Still got some decent places to eat and still got some great cultural hotspots. The galleries and the BFI are excellent.

I was genuinely born not far from the South Bank - but we later moved to god's country on the east London/Essex borders and I grew up standing on the real South Bank.
Hence the name.

South Bank
I used to stand on the SB because I was from the South Bank. It would have been too easy to support Chelsea or Wall like all my neighbours.
Masters Fish and Chips on Waterloo Road is still very reliable... that's all anybody is getting out of me! 😉

BFI is where I spend a lot of my time too...again did so since I was young and long before it was trendy.
Guess what? You can be working class and take a punt on a film with subtitles.
Who'd a thunk it eh?

Yep, love the BFI too. For a while, I must have been one of the few working-class folk wandering in there on a regular basis to use the Mediatheques. Quite a regular thing, now, which is great.
One of the best places in London. I was lucky enough to meet and marry a woman obsessed with film, so we're there a lot.
