Do you mean the parade of shops at East Dulwich Road / Gowlett Road? Plus points - plenty of footfall / traffic. Good demographics / plenty of demand in the area (look back through the various cafe threads). Not too much competition heading East (although the cfe on the Common may open before it snows). Playground next door. Negatives - You'd be competing against The Green and All Fired Up (does decent coffee), plus at a stretch Petitou and Lucius & Richards. The forecourt / pavement often gets used as a back-up car park.

So, if East Dulwich Road is the boundary to the lower East Side, then Goose Green must be Battery Park?
