Welcome to Penge Ednewmy! Check out the Penge Tourist Board on Facebook, it's a source of all info Penge. We have a new wine/bar/restaurant coming to the high street from Antic gang that own the Goldsmiths and the Alex pub is finally about to open courtesy of Late Knights brewery opposite the fantastic Alexandra Nurseries. If beer is your thing there's a craft beer delivery to your door now doing Penge local rates (courtesy of me!) www.craftmetropolis.co.uk and a new crepe and mussel restaurant on Maple road - it's all go in Penge!

Without risking the wrath of admin my site I posted about the other day has a load of styles from London breweries and has more set to come in the new year. If anyone has any recommendations or additions they would like to see please let me know - I will see what I can do.

Code CM10 for 10% off and free delivery.

I think a lot of places make an IPA as a default beer as it's solid but you will find most breweries have at least 4 beers on their books that are varied in style and flavour. Jeremy, you are right the American Pale ales do very well especially as they are quite fruity with their hoppyness. Most breweries know they need to satisfy growing tastes and that's great news for beer fans as loads of new beers are coming onto the scene. O

Sorry this isn't a cheap excuse to bump the thread but major teething issues with website are now fixed - sorry to everyone who had problems earlier this should be fixed now.
Apologies

Hello my name is Oli and I've started an online craft beer club/shop - www.craftmetropolis.co.uk
My aim is to deliver the best of London's craft beers to your doorstep. My stock at the moment includes delights from nearby breweries in Peckham (Brick) and Penge (Late Knights) and will expand over the next few months.
Take out a subscription and use code SUB20 and you get 20% off your first "We Pick" box. There's also a option to buy a box as a gift for immediate delivery or as a voucher code for the lucky person to use at their whim.
I'm also on social media:

I'm a former SE22 resident of many years and only live around the corner now in SE20 so I hope this is all above board!
Thanks for reading,
Oli

tradesman 32 is about spot on with costs, just had one done that size to that cost...you will however have to add on "Dulwich and/or London extra tax" that some quotes include.

How much was a Rangemaster fitting out of interest as need to do one myself when it arrives in two weeks? Thanks all

Another vote for Penge, as per lots of threads on here, and all that Otta says on this one. New refurb pub by EDT people Attic opening in few short weeks to add to list of upward development in area. We love it.
-
Owners of EDT have taken over a pub in Penge and local brewery also are moving into a pub...its on the up and its already great. Viva la Pong?!
-
Otta, glad to see you are settling in....which pubs have you tried, i'd be interested to know. You're right it would be good to have a busy pub that does that kinda thing well.
-
opps, already answered....sorry.

We live on Kingswood, between the stations, which means Crystal palace park is 5 min walk from our house or 1 min walk from Penge West. Ace park as well.
-
I've commented on Penge threads here before and my thoughts remain the same - it's great! BJ has sold it very well and accurately but he's right prices are flying up. O

Moved to Penge from ED. Swapped a lovely but small 1st floor flat for a victorian house with garden next to two stations. It's brill and really on the up. Huge park, useful high street and little gems in terms of cafes/brewers/pub...and close to Ed or CP if you need all that jazz.
-
Moved from Ed to Penge 6 moths ago and adore it. Don't miss much from Ed, in fact I think it's better. The main draw is waht you get for your money but if youre looking for an area which is quiet, friendly, has decent and improving creature comforts in terms of shops etc I think it's Penge. Good luck.

Sold up my ED flat in the summer and moved to Penge. Best thing I ever did, no matter how much I loved ED, and I did for years. Penge has a massive park, nice pub, amazing transport links, nice new eateries popping up, Penge food Centre, feels very safe, green and leafy, functional high street....i could go on. I admit i couldn't afford to stay in ED but given the option of moving knowing what I know now I just think Ed is taking the piss out of everyone moving in and paying that amount. Fair play if you have it and want what ever it is that Ed offers but you're utterly crackers IMHO.

Can anybody recommend a good hair stylist to do wedding hair? I live local but will be getting married in East London on my wedding day. They would need to available on Friday 26th July about 11am to do my wedding hair. Ideally I would like a trial first. I have an idea of how I want my hair, 20's slight finger wave and loosely tied up.
Please quote me a price for a trial and on the day. I am happy to cover public transport costs as there will be no parking near my hotel in Farringdon.
Please get back to me asap!
Desperate bride!

....while on this subject anyone know a safe reliable place near here to get a valuation for insurance purposes? Thanks, O.

I had quite a positive experience from Water Council. They contacted Thames Water on my behalf and got them to contact me. I'd already done this myself and got fobbed off as "sorry love, that's life." I now have a "dedicated" water, erm...person....looking at the water pressure. I think if we keep on at them at least we've given it a go. It's a bloody joke at the moment.

Just to let you know my water has got worse-its stupid now. My boiler wont even recognise the amount of water flowing through it to fire it up! I?ve asked the water council to get involved and they have asked Thames Water are coming to test the pressure soon. I will keep you informed but if you want to help/get info on what can be done, if anything, please call the Water Council on: 02079318502. this is the division that deals with Thames Water. It may help if there's more than one voice putting pressure (scuse the pun) on them
