Zerodegrees

As an American tourist in London, my boyfriend and I were really excited when we found out this bar had Fireball. Besides that, it was a lovely bar and atmosphere and I can’t wait to go back to London!

I just love this place!
A friend of mine recommended it for a night out with the boys and we decided to check it out. I had heard of this place before, but I wasn’t expecting it to be so good. They have their very own brewery and I’m not over-​exaggerating when I say this was one of the best beers I have ever drunk.
On top of that their Peri-​Peri chicken and Peking duck pizzas were simply delicious.
The decoration is very innovative, definitely a breath of fresh air from the typical over the top paintings and strange sculptures. I was having a bad day that same evening, but the waitress was really friendly and quite charming which totally boosted my mood up.
I recommend this to everyone, who wants to try something fresh and new.

I love the concept but the execution wasn’t so hot.
Kudos for finding (making) a table for us when 17 people rolled up at 830pm on a Saturday night.
I tried to use the checkin deal (free order of dough balls … yes, just like the ones you get at Pizza Express) to MUCH confusion and anxiety on the part of both the waiter and the manager. At one point I was asked for my name (?) which was written down and one can only assume filed away for later, even more anxious contemplation (What is this « Unilocal»? What is a «check in deal?» «Who is Lauren and why the f*ck is she so special?»).
Lots of pizza choices and they sounded fairly good. But they looked pretty mundane (the roasted veggie particularly looked ugly). I went for the goat cheese salad and it wasn’t bad, but just sort of meh.
The mango beer (this is a microbrewery, which is awesome. except it wasn’t) was way too sweet. Half way in I was done.
Staff were pretty good, didn’t mess up ANY orders and multiple-​card payment went off without a hitch. This place just wasn’t my thing, food or beer wise.

Microbrewery in the heart of Blackheath. Great beer and great food… the pizzas are really inventive. Peking duck pizza is highly recommended. You can also check out the brewing system to the right of the bar, which is pretty cool.
And on a Monday (I really questioned whether I would write this because I don’t want it to get overly busy, haha) they do «beat the clock» Monday where your main course is charged at the time you order. Order at 7pm, pay £7 (which depending on what you get is around 50% off)! There is a supplement for mussels. I got mussels last time and have to say they weren’t amazing. It was as if the mussels were poured on top of the sauce so they weren’t even coated in sauce! I’d go for a pizza next time.
They have an outdoor sitting area plus an upstairs outdoor patio. The place is deceptively big inside!
One last thing: they operate a no-​trainer policy on Friday and Saturday nights so leave your Nikes at home!

I like the atmosphere, but the interior is not exactly my cup of tea. The variety of drinks is good. The prices are reasonable. Don’t forget to try the tasty meals, especially the creative salads.

My girlfriend and I had an enjoyable weekday dinner at ZeroDegrees. The food and the service were both clear highlights. We had some of the best pizza we’ve ever tasted, with the menu’s creativity being a big plus point (we heartily recommend the Peking duck pizza!) The staff were very friendly and polite, and service was quick.
We liked the venue — the modern, industrial feel is a change from many Greenwich/​Blackheath restaurants. The beer, which is put forward as somewhat of a USP, didn’t leave much of an impression. That said, we might be spoiled by the close proximity of the excellent Meantime brewery.
Our only significant criticism would be that the restaurant was far too cold — that a number of diners were sitting in anoraks should have been a warning sign! It was the first week of January and the cavernous layout of the restaurant probably makes it hard to heat, but all the same this was a disappointment in what was otherwise a very enjoyable visit.
We will certainly go again, but perhaps not until the spring!

Service has improved (it was shocking in the restaurant). Pizza’s and mussels are nice. Salad is smothered in dressing, so recommend you ask for it on the side if you still want to be able to taste everything else.
Great selection of drinks. Love the vanilla vodka.

I’d call this joint more of a micro-​brewery that serves grub, but that’s just me.
I’m all about the beer; the current brewer is a young dude with solid experience from apprenticing for however many years they do back in his home country of Germany. His Hefeweizen tastes of the Fatherland. –love it. I’ve also had the black lager, and that, too, is a treat. The hubs and I have occasionally schlepped a mini-​keg (four or five pints’ worth?) of beer over the hill to keep in the fridge which has been met with varying degrees of success because once the keg is ‘tapped’, then the brew goes flat fairly quickly, so drink up!
This is tasty, locally-​brewed beer, folks!

Very decent microbrewery beer and the pizza is fine too so long as you don’t make the mistake of expecting or hoping for anything remotely authentically Italian.

I was visiting a friend in Lewisham, and was asked what my preference for dinner was. As soon as I said I fancied seafood, she got this look of delight on her face and said Zerodegrees was her absolute favorite local spot for mussels. I too, love mussels! We had an overall really enjoyable dinner. The breakdown:
Beer: 5 stars. Had a really, really great IPA. I wish I weren’t a lightweight so I could have had a second. I get the feeling this place is well loved for their microbrews.
Food: 4 stars. Got the kilo of mussels and chips — really tasty and flavorful, but a third of my mussels weren’t open :(
Ambiance: 3 stars. Specifically asked for a quieter table when we booked (they gave us the option) — were put in probably one of the loudest parts of the restaurant.
Service: 3 stars. Really friendly waiter, bizarrely and incredibly slow to bring the check. Had to ask 3 times.

I would go back, if given the chance. I found Blackheath to be quite cute, and this place to be a very decent local spot.

Overpriced and almost 100% charm free. And worse when there is sport on. Decided to take our drinks to the dangerously sloping tables out front to avoid the rugger buggers.
The beer is alright though (it should be nice after taking your poor wallet quite so roughly!). Dark Lager was indeed tasty. And I am a sucker for a good beerso scrapes a 3.

Came in for one and decided typo stay for two! Then pizza. What a pizza it was. 10 out of tend and fivrd stars to you guys and the lovely ladys behind the bar.

Very impressed.
Started off with a crostini platter, continued with a parma ham pizza.
Loved the crostini as they came in 4 different versions/​flavours
The pizza was very well done and finally someone who knows that parma ham must be put after you cook the pizza!
Surely going back for more

great food in Blackheath. Nice loungie vibe. they were having a special in which if you spend so much cash in the tab you get a free keg to take home. needles to say. we took a keg home that night. pasta was amazing… great beer selection.

Well, I’ve been to Zerodegrees twice now and had one great meal and one bad one. I do like the atmosphere of the place (who doesn’t like a microbrewery???) so I would definitely go back, but now I know what to avoid menu-​wise.
The first meal I had there was mussels and yes it’s true, they do cook them well here. I opted to go classic with the mariniere sauce and it was tasty. I was also impressed that they offered so many different mussel options.
The second meal I had here was, well, kind of gross. I ordered the BBQ Chicken Salad. I know that when you put hot chicken on top of lettuce and other cold items the chicken will cool down, but by the time the salad found its way to the table the chicken was ice cold. Whatever BBQ sauce they used was definitely low-​end from a bottle and the corn tortilla chips were cold and greasy too. It was one of those meals where the whole time I was looking longingly at the pizzas and fries everyone else had ordered. I suppose that’s what I get for trying to be healthy.

This was my second or third outing to Zero Degrees in Blackheath. As a devout microbrew fan, there is nothing I love more than a finely crafter beer… other than a tasty pizza to go with it!
Well, look no further, this little gem just south of the heath has great beers and tasty pizzas. While our service was really slow and lacking, the manager at least took notice and comped our pizza. The best deal going is that if you spend £30 or more, you get a mini-​keg of there beer. This is about 10.5 pints of beer… for free! Sadly, it took us only about two days to plow through our free keg, but man, was it worth it. This deal alone will consistently bring me back.
I also here that they show the football matches on the weekend with a big screen projector.

Zerodegrees is one of my prefered places in Blackheath, with good pizzas (think a gourmet style of the Pizza Express offering) and fresh, cold microbrwery lagers.
As other reviewers have said, the staff are helpful and offer prompt service.
The only downside is the lack of seating available for drinkers, with the entire upstairs area reserved for the restaurant, a couple of big groups can quickly take up all available tables.

One of the beers is one of the best beers in warm weather.
There is nothing like warm weather in Blackheath.
Pop down to Zero Degrees and grab a Pilsner, they serve others but this is easily the best of their in-​house brews and ask for a plastic glass and go enjoy the weather.
The other beers are average and the atmosphere is more restaurant-​bar then bar-​restaurant.
Also best on a busy day as there’s a great chance of getting a fresh barrel and by that I mean beer made that day!

Zero Degrees is a fabulous bar and restaurant! It’s a microbrewery and they only serve their own (tasty) beer plus various wines/​spirits. They also do food along the lines of pizza, pasta, risotto etc. which is similarly good quality and decent value.
The atmosphere is great with a buzz of conversation around the room. The service is really friendly and you can see even the staff seem happy to be there.
Zero Degrees is very popular so I suggest booking a table if you’re going for dinner in a group.

I straight up, LOVE this place.
Ok. I’m a little biased. It’s one of the first bars that I started going to when I first moved to London. But in my opinion, if you find yourself in Blackheath one evening, there’s no better place to start.
The mood in there is pretty good — there’s a few pretentious sorts floating around Blackheath, and I guess one or two of them could wind up in here, but not enough of them to sour the mood — a good cross-​section of people, certainly no scumbags in here though.
The restaurant, which is located in a sunken area to your left as your walk in is excellent. A great mix of food, cooked up by an open kitchen which is viewable from most of the restaurant and bar. Great mussels hear… I promise!
The bar serves up the usual mix of wines and spirits but the highlight is the beer selection which comes straight from Zero Degrees’ very own microbrewery. Tubes travel from massive tanks in the front of the building, up to the high ceiling and down into the bar, delivering some of the nicest beer I’ve ever tasted. Ales, Lagers, Bitters, Stouts — all catered for here and VERY reasonably priced. (£2.50 last time I was there).
There’s a comfortable seating area tucked around the back section of the premises which has a TV for those wishing to catch a bit of sport and extra seating upstairs as overspill for the restaurant (which looks down onto the main area),
Give this place a go… if I still lived in Blackheath I’d still be going there now — but I still get the urge to return now and then and it still doesn’t disappoint.
Top place!
