The Eletriq Café in Eltham is light and airy. It gives a bright twist to Italian food. Specialising in Italian style pasta, pizzas steaks, chicken & fish. It also features wines from around the world. It is housed in a superb thirties building that was the former London Electricity showroom. The restaurant is independently owned and operated and opened in 1997. The owners, Alonso Vela-Castro and Ed Kidney, bring more than 25 years experience to this restaurant.

The famous Italian restaurant designer, Enzo Apicella, refurbished the entire building. An exciting painting by the designer entitled “Let there be Light” commands a central point and a stained glass window on the upper floor, specially commissioned by the owners, commemorates the building's origins.

Not surprisingly, therefore, the Eletriq Café has become a favourte meeting place for the locals. Food and drink are served all day and friends meet for coffee, a snack, a drink or a full meal at this hospitable venue. The piped music is usually cool Jazz or there is regular live piano in the evening.
