I can't function without a great coffee in the morning. I'm not talking about the coffee flavoured luke warm beverages at Cafe Nero. Or the slightly burned beans and thin overheated milk from some other lordship cafes making coffee by pushing buttons. I'm talking about a Barista, a true artisan, a coffee nut after my own heart that I can count on every morning on my way to the tube.


I'm new to the area and hunting for an inspiring morning coffee takeaway en-route to East Dulwich Tube? If you're not already rolling your eyes at my coffee snobbery but share the same morning addiction - I'd love your recommendation. My employer, fellow commuters - in fact anyone that has to speak to me before 10am will thank you.

I found the Coffee at La Scala very bitter and strong...

I had a Flat White which despite the name was dark and resembled T?rk kahvesi.. the thick stong Turkish Coffee.


The Cappuccino I had at The Small White Elephant in Choumert Road Peckham was very good..


Staff at both places were very friendly and welcoming..

To be honest, not sure you'll find what you're looking for on LL. Brickhouse is usually pretty reliable and French House (not sure what time it's open) can be good too.


As mentioned previously if you're willing to venture slightly further afield, Old Spike in Peckham and St David's in Forest Hill are both excellent.

As a black coffee drinker, it's hard to find a decent cup. Volcano is pretty rough stuff and needs some milk to make it palatable.


Jades IMHO is the best black coffee in Dulwich.


By comparison I'm quite happy with a 99p filter from Pret. Beats most Americanos into a cocked hat.

By far best solution is (all from Amazon)


1. Buy Andrew James programmable chrome filter coffee maker with integrated grinder (currently ?79.99)


2. Buy Spiller and Tait Rainforest special blend beans (or their other mixes, to taste, but Rainforest is special)


3. Get a vacuum flask (vast array available at less than ?15)


4. Enjoy - much less effort than waiting in line and having to put up with a characterless drink.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
