Uhhmmm Let me see.


Village Tandoori.


Village Kebab and Burger Bar.


Village Favorite Chicken. VFC.


Village Pie and Eel Bar.


Village ...????

I hope they go for an independent restaurant like Chapter 2 (Blackheath). If someone decided to actually set up an independent well they would clean up v the chains (P Express and C Rouge). I would love to do it but feel that I would then be a candidate for Ramsey's Kitchen nightmares!
Thank god for that, it was bloody awful and service was appalling but I'm afraid it is more than likely it will be replaced by something equally bland and boring and well....crap Unfortunately only the big chains can afford the rents in the Village. The Village could really do with a decent restaurant but sadly it's unlikely to happen.

Future expansion

Waitrose aims to extend its store presence whilst improving price perceptions and developing an integrated multi-channel offer.



Waitrose opened its first smaller format convenience store in Fitzroy Street, Cambridge in summer 2010 as part of its plans to increase its presence in the UK's convenience sector. The new format stores will offer shops with sales areas ranging from 2,000-4,000 sqft. There are plans to open a total of nine convenience shops by the end of the year, including four of the newest smaller convenience shops.

Bring it on I say.......

    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
    • It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
