Co-Op food is generally really good. Their Fairtrade Chocolate is delicious as are the hot croissants. Wine selection also generally very good. Room for improvement in the salad department.
Bit annoying as the crew must have wandered about last night putting no parking cones everywhere like they owned the place. Most residents ignored them (quite rightly)which led to some amusing head scratching by crew this morning.
It does seem ridiculous the police are powerless to deal with dog on dog attacks. The owner should be held to account for their dog's actions. I guess sometimes in the animal kingdom nature takes over. But in this case it seems the owner did sweet FA to help during the attack and after. I haven't got a dog but if I did, and my dog attacked another and injured it that badly I'd be mortified.
Quite. The notion that hordes from Clapham are moving here and mating with the local populous just to steal our daffodils and dilute a once proud working class utopia is clearly poppycock.
Oh yes. I get The Actress joke.. It still isn't funny. However as a pub I think it's a good addition to the area. Id like to see the CPT keep its old pub character.
I would say Crystal Palace Tavern would be a perfect name. And if the exterior was restored to Castle standards it could be a thing of beauty. It's got good outside space. I hope the new owners really make it work.
I would say it's probably a good move. I like the CPT but unless there's football on it's pretty empty. As long as they keep the name and not any "Actress" nonsense I hope it's a success.
