The Blue Mountain Cafe - North Cross Road

[amandahale]

I've just moved to the area (but have visited East Dulwich a lot over the last few years) and only now have I stumbled across this lovely place. I was surprised to find out that apparently it is over 20 years old. I didn't get a chance to stop for a meal but I thought the vibe of the place was amazing. I think it?s Caribbean food, has anyone eaten here?

We tried their new carriebean menu and it was super yummy and great serving and music! Think they do deal on cocktails too

Thank you guys ! I went there last week in the evening and had their Caribbean evening meal which was amazing, I ate the red snapper. Going to try and pop in there tomorrow daytime if it isn't too busy

It is indeed over 20 years old. I think it opened around 1992. It was just after I moved to ED. It used to have a number of interestingly decorated small rooms, and sold bread at the front, and very yummy chocolate coated coffee beans.

If the chef's the same as the one who was there just before they closed for refurbishment a while back, the food will be excellent. I had a fantastic meal there one evening. Pleased to hear they are opening in the evening again.

Blue Mountain Cafe is brilliant - make sure you eat / drink there! We don't want it going the same way as the East Dulwich Deli or Sea Cow!!

I miss the old layout at Blue Mountain with the red Chinese room. Great place to go and hide away. Not into big open spaces.

I agree. I miss it too :(

But that particular room was extremely small!
