That is some beer list on The Old Crown's page


Brendan - kick off? In this place? Between you and me?? I doubt it ;-)


American bars seem to do the bar/bar-stool thing very well in my experience. I find it much easier over there to grab a stool and end up in conversation withsomeone nearby


It got to one stage where a particular bar in NY recognized me after a 6month absence and put the pint of stella on teh counter before I ordered


If I ever get to Vegas, I've promised myself I'm going here:

Back on topic again: (thought I was in the lounge for a minute) I think I drunkenly suggested we club together for the CPT one night and everyone stared and said they had all thought of that several times. The rumours today suggest a happier outcome than I feared (ie full closure)

Here's hoping the vibe and the staff remain

An EDF pub co-operative...


Keef can be the pub sign, seeing as he's pretty-much there all the time anyway.

Alan can source a piano (no more than ?60 though please, Alan), so that Louisa can have her old-fashioned sing-sings.

I can use the piano at night for knocking-out.. er I mean.. carefully crafting my compositions.

Mockney can be the official photographer.

Madworld can do Reiki healing upstairs so we can save on travelling expenses (though 'the magic' will still be charged at ?50/hour, plus materials)

Sean can mediate when a fight breaks out.

The Admin can install peepholes in all the eyes of the paintings on the walls.

Half the place is a Lounge. Or so it says on the door. (I think or does it say SALOON on the door into the back bar?)


I quite like the thought of people getting relegated to the back bar when their conversations degenerates into rubbish. I think it would get pretty full especially towards the end of the night.

And I only asked if you have a low cut top.... If you say yes then we say yes :)-D


Think Topless Tuesdays may be a step too far, would give some of the older regulars a heart attack!

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      By civilservant · Posted

      thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street...

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.

      Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
