Overall Rating
Good
The Lounge is a modern building that has a small library, a cafe, couches, and Internet access. The wifi is sometimes hit and miss and the book & dvd collection is limited due to its small size. I've mostly used the ground floor space to meet friends, especially in the evening as there aren't many public & wheelchair accessible venues open late in Deptford (it gets an extra star for being open until 10 on weekdays and also for having Sunday openings, note the cafe operates a much more limited amount of time).
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
I have never been to the upstairs where there are sometimes events so I am not sure if these are accessible. Ground floor is accessible and allows assistance dogs.
Parking & Transport
Good
Very close to Deptford Rail Station, which is wheelchair accessible and has a lift. 10 minutes to Deptford Bridge DLR, which also is wheelchair accessible (although once when I was at this station with a wheelchair user the lift was broken and we could not travel).
Accessible Toilets
