Please note, Domali has now closed. A new cafe called Reunion has opened on the same site. Time Out Food editors, SEPTEMBER 2019.
Having stood firmly on the Crystal Palace triangle since 1996, it was only a matter of time before Domali owners Dom and Alison (geddit?) did a refurb. Twenty years to be precise, as atowards the end of last year they closed their doors as a modest veggie restaurant, and re-opened them in the New Year as a slick Scandi eatery con carne. The walls have gone from plain white to tree-lined, set against natural wood pannelling and low-hung lighting.
Locally sourced meat (from Bermondsey) has been added to the menu, as has a surprisingly large range of gin (Jensens, Sipsmith, Beefeater and Warner Edwards among those on offer). They still have a good range of veggie options, and vegan to boot. Plus they host regular live music.
