There's a couple of good meaty restaurants near Smithfields, unsurprisingly. However I need to tap the brain of someone who knows more about them than me.
 For greasy spoons, Rosa's near the old [[Truman Brewery]] is pretty good, although, of course, everyone has their favourite local one (that just happened to be mine for a year or so).

Tis my [[DrHyde]]'s favourite too. The food is top-notch, with damned good tea to wash it down with. They do have some non-greasy items on the menu, but they are to be avoided. Anyway, if you want something different, there's several stalls in the nearby [[Spitalfields Market]].

That area in general is good for greasy spoons - there are several excellent ones round the top end of Shoreditch High Street, including Titanic [http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?G2M?X=533470&Y=182903&A=Y&Z=1 here] and Taste of China (takeaway only, [http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?G2M?X=533586&Y=182852&A=Y&Z=1 here]).

If you're in Lewisham you must visit the Chef's Treat on Lewisham High Street. It doesn't have all the charms of a traditional greasy spoon insomuch as it isn't small and poky, it doesn't have rickety furniture on shared tables where you have to sit next to a 20 stone builder on his fifth lunch break that morning. But, it does have an excellent menu, including all the classics; breakfasts, burgers, roasts, various meals + chips, tea, good coffee and a dessert menu. The staff are very friendly, but will leave you alone if that is what you require, and the clientele is mixed - workmen, students, child and old person friendly. Decor is basic, clean and comfortable. Queues at peak times because it is very popular. Reasonable prices.

A good caff in Chelsea is the Chelsea Kitchen, SW3 4TZ.
