Central London just north of Tower Bridge (might be London Bridge 
), there’s an excellent cafe there run by a woman. Loads of drivers stop there. You park just across the road in a small private car park owned by a Pakistani. You can get about 10 artics in there but it’ll cost you a fiver in the morning for parking there. However, if you get up early enough to avoid the traffic you miss him altogether and he doesn’t even know you’ve stayed there (no padlock on the gates). Stopped there many a time, however not this year so far as I’m on containers now. This area might now be under the congestion charge zone too
