those of you who have been affected by loud night noise/ anti-social behaviour on Lordship Lane might be interested in this thread on licensing hours on Lordship Lane - http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,505123,page=1. You think Fri/Sat nights are a pain, just wait till you get it on Thursday and Sunday nights too...

Does anyone know if a kebab shop could be made to get security as part of their licence? I was stood near Kebab & Wine (the kebab shop next to Black Cherry), chatting to a couple of friends a few Saturdays ago, minding our own business after a night out. Now admittedly this was around 3am. But whatever the time was, we did not deserve to have full cans of G&T (posh larger louts in SE22!) thrown at us, nor be on the receiving end of a barrage of unwarranted and really nasty and misogynistic name-calling.


There were at least 20 drinkers stood on Lordship Lane outside the kebab shop and, although I don't know if they were buying their booze in the kebab shop or across the road at the Payless corner shop, they were clearly settling-in for a drink there instead of buying their burgers, having a quick fight or vomit and moving on.

see many threads passim candp - not a nice thing to have happen


But not sure if you were NEAR a kebab shop what security you want as part of their license?


No one (well....) deserves to have anything thrown at them but we all probably know there are times when it's more likely? The reason it happened is little to do with security or license and more to do with a prevailing culture


I hope that doesn't sound like I'm being unsympathetic - but a kebab shop is unlikely to generate enough dosh to pay for bouncers. More likely the place would get closed down

Keef and Sean, is this true? Well then Sean, perhaps you're right and I'd rather someone looked at Kebab & Wine's adherence to the law and licensing rules. But the drinkers were directly outside the shop and popping (well more sort of staggering) in and out of it, rather than just standing somewhere nearby. If they'd been drinking directly outside Black Cherry or Adventure and behaved as aggressively I think the bouncers would have moved them on.

I seem to remember that you have to pay for drinks tickets before you go in, so I guess it's not exactly charging you, but you have to part with money, and you don't seem to get much back for it. Saying that, I've not been there since my wallet got nicked a couple of years ago.

I'm amazed it doesn't get raided every week as it is.

Licence here


Note they are only licensed to sell alcohol up to 1am and only to those having a meal ON THE PREMISES.


135 - Intoxicating liquor shall not be sold or supplied on the premises otherwise than to persons taking table meals there and for consumption by such person as an ancillary to his meal.


'Late night refreshemnt' licenses only the sale of food and non alcoholic drinks.


They are required to have door staff from 10pm


341 - SIA / Local Authority Registered Door Staff are to be employed by the premises from 2200 hours

V interesting DJKQ, thanks. I think the cctv they're required to have would make interesting viewing for a licensing officer. Perhaps they've found some way round the rules with the drink tokens (clearly ancillary to any meal) but god knows where they found that invisible doorman.

No the drink tokens are neither here nor there. There should be NO alcohol sold or SUPPLIED on the premises after 1am and the alcohol that is supplied can only be done so with a meal consumed on the premises. No exceptions. So if they are not doing that then they are breaching the terms of their licence.


If they are running the back room as a bar only they are also breaching the terms of their license. If the Police catch them doing that twice in a seven day period they can apply to a magistrate to force the premises to close. Southwark licensing would be very interested to hear of any breaches and can similarly review and withdraw the license at any point.

    • Another recommendation for Lukasz, he sorted out our bifold door. He came at the agreed time, found the issue very quickly, adjusted it, all very carefully and with attention to detail. And he was very reasonably priced as well. 
    • Well sure someone will correct me but years ago, in Singapore and I was quite young so not sure if it is true. but if you were caught stealing, your little finger or just the  tip part with nail was chopped off.  Stigma for  life as all know that was punishment for stealing… no questions asked.Totally agree it is barbaric but equally putting people  into overcrowded prison for minor offences is also not right. Tagging I guess would not work or maybe does… no idea at all.  Not so long ago, heard a talk about how European’s cope/deal with prisoners and how the suggest rate is higher and offences lowered greatly as in not going back to prison for same  or another offence.  The general gist was their approach was each prisoner mattered , was heard and listens to and a suitable package was tailored towards their needs. Not  b one package for all. Not cooped up for the majority of the day - encouraged as an example to cook, garden, grow food, other household stuff  plus study if wanted for courses, languages etc. and mental health, dependency on substance abuse also addressed. Can’t remember if they were paid c pocket money which clearly accumulated or could be used to  I purchase whatever in prison. If they can do it by experimenting and I think but not sure, at the time an English prison was learning why can’t this sort of program be rolled  out throughout UK - cut backs not an excuse - think of the millions lost by govt during Covid…  Maybe it is - no experience in the matter at all.   
    • Why have things got so complicated? I suppose a cat flap with a timer might be useful for people out all day but can't really see the point of them when its so easy to flip a simple mechanical lock. This is how my last cat flap operated but had to be replaced when cat wearing cone of shame tried to escape and broke it. The cat flap I have now is one of those linked to cats microchip but even then there is just a four way dial which allows different kinds of access - or not. Not that cat is bothered, refuses to use it and demands i open the door for her. This is bit of a rant because along with a new boiler I got a new electronic programmer which is really annoying as it takes 5 minutes to change a simple temperature whereas with old programmer it took 10 seconds. Hope you get sorted @oglander and enjoy your future servitude to your feline master.
