I want to recommend Lou and his brilliant parties at Captured on the Rye. My 6-yr old had a party there for 12, and they all really enjoyed it. It was nice to do something creative, without lots of competitive games (which can stress out my son!) and everyone got something really nice to take away at the end - a party bag with a difference!


They basically designed their own T-shirts (with some cool templates for those that wanted them) and then Lou and Lola helped them screen print them - they all came out looking great, something tasteful that the kids will wear and enjoy. They also did some fab little spin paintings and at the end Lou fired up his candy floss machine.

Feel free to PM me if you want to ask me anything about it.

We had a party 2 years ago for the children at the shop and again this weekend but at home. We invited the whole class. Lou and his assistant took charge of all the kids and kept them entertained for over 3 hours with t shirt printing and spin painting. There were 25 tshirts made. The kids were boisterous and with a sugar high from all the candy floss but they were able to remain calm and made it a stress free party. They were also very good around our disabled child and took measures to ensure safety at all times. We would definitely recommend.

We just had my daughters 7th birthday party at captured in the rye. It is a really good alternative party. The girls were totally engrossed in the activity from drawing and cutting out to getting involved with the screen printing and shrieking with delight at their finished t shirts. The spin painting and candy floss also added another dimension of creative fun. Would recommend highly as a memorable birthday activity with a keep sake to go home with!

I can also recommend Captured on the Rye (Pellatt Road) spin painting parties. My teen and 7 friends had a fantastic time there recently, and they all left with a beautifully unique t-shirt or bag, as well as a sugar high from the monumental candy floss. Great value, and I can say from experience that the t-shirts last forever (we have two from 4 years ago which are much loved and still going strong!). It can be tricky to find something different for teens, and this absolutely hit the mark.

Aww. Thanks, Guanaja. It was a pleasure to have you and your family return. It makes me happy when I see tee shirts printed at our parties being proudly sported around and about in ED and beyond. There were no less than three being worn at the recent BBC Proms in Peckham!

Come again.

I definitely recommend Captured on the Rye for children's parties. We had my daughter's 8th birthday party at the weekend and it was fantastic. All the girls had a brilliant time and I'm still getting comments from the mums at school about how much they all loved it. Lou and Lola were fantastic at helping with the t-shirt designs and the finished product looks really impressive. The candy floss creations at the end were a definite highlight!

Another recommendation for Lou and Captured on the Rye! We had a lovely time there for my daughter's birthday party (a group of 4-6 year olds). The kids loved seeing their designs being printed on the T-shirts, and they really enjoyed the spin painting too. I'd also add that it's a really reasonably priced, hassle-free party (venue, entertainment, and party bags all sorted). You just need to turn up with a cake!

      Chicks and ducklings

      By malumbu · Posted

      Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By theweekend · Posted

      I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By Sue · Posted

      If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

      I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
