I have heard that Anatolia, the former Turkish restaurant on Forest Hill Road, is to become an off shoot of the Sea Cow fish & chip shop brand. Can anyone confirm?


If so - with Si Mangia, Omrith and perhaps a Sea Cow all within 200 yards does this make Forest Hill Road a mini foodie destination?

I'm watching with interest. They've spent ages not doing much to Anatolia, which has been shut for more than 2 years now. They've dumped a load of stuff in the front yard and I see there's a council notice about the works pinned to a lamp-post. Old off licence indeed, although to that you can also add the old stationers and the old Chinese takeaway.


Think mini-foodie might be stretching it though! Was disappointed with Cafe 2050 the other day, which is a shame as I normally love it.

I've never actually eaten in The Sea Cow and while I have always thought it looked good, although am a bit put off by the bench seating which is stylish but doesn't look very comfy. Is the food good?


Living close to Anatolia am very interested in what happens to it. It would be great if something also happened to the corner off licence too. That could be a fab, independent, early opening coffee shop (we like 2050 but the 9.30 opening time is no use if you want a coffee on the way to work). Or perhaps a green and blue style wine bar in keeping with the original theme??? Wishful thinking :)

It'll be interesting to see how the Sea Master evolves and if it is an off shoot of teh Se Cow which is expensive in comparison to other chippies. Will certainly create competition for the Dolphin Fish Bar up the road and could actually finish it off), they say fish and chops are thriving in this recession and also great for Forest Hill Road.

Don't need another chippie. Come back Anatolia, we loved you.


And sea cow takeaway is rubbish, they've made the schoolboy error of using trendy boxes which steams everything soft. Eating in the grub is good but interior is a bit grim; there's a thin layer of grease over everything .

I'd much rather have another decent local restaurant, esp. as I love the chips from Dolphin.


Si M is nowt special, does its job OK. Although I do like the tiramisu.


Omrith plunged downhill between first and second visits - first was fine, second was like an experimental cookery course entitled 'put many kilos of cornflour in absolutely everything' had been going on. Never again.

"Used to be" Northlonder but hasn't been for a very long time and has been shut for more than two years. Many of the shops on that parade have been closed for far too long and that makes the place look shabby. Time to move on and hopefully some of the other premises will follow suit.

The co-op has no rear access, so the only place to store anything is out ront. I agree it's a dump. The Co-op used to be worse before its revamp about 2 years ago but it's still fairly shoddy.


Nero there is another thread about someone looking to take over the blue and yellow place - fingers crossed something goes ahead as it looks like something from Shameless at the moment

    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
