Tea shop opened today! Looks beautiful, very comfy armchairs and some sweet and helpful young ladies working in there. A lot of the staff were proper French, so hopefully they'll be able to impart that 'je ne sais quoi' the owners seem to be striving for.


I had a lovely pot of some sort of posh earl grey tea all to my greedy self and am soon to be tucking into my tarte for dessert, which I took away.


Alas, I fear it is soon to be taken over by annoying ED mums, their oversized pushchairs and rowdy kids. Just as well as I am one of those annoying mums.... oooh la lah...

Cafe Nero always burn the coffee which makes for a disgusting drink. I will go in and try it on Saturday. Just think it will probably be full of us forumites but none of us will know who we are. Maybe we should have some secret signal. Like a phrase or a wink?....:))of course if you see a woman in there on saturday winking and talking babble it'll be me! carried off by the police! ha ha

wonder what time you were there davidm - we popped in briefly around 8am en route to another engagement but were very glad we did


The woman who served us was very good and very informative, talking about the soft opening mid-week and they are really keen for people to like the place. There is no "we are who we are take us or leave us" attitude at all


Nice food (snack menu) good drinks list and great selection of teas (and coffee!) -


It's not like a pub where you would feel comfotable just wandering on on your own but I can see myself going there quite a bit


Mark - I sooooo wish I was able to pop in for lunch today. But do report back

    • It looks as though there will be 10 of us!  We are going to Love Dulwich again for a lunch and will checkout their 'normal' menu - from what we remember from the last 2 times we went = there was plenty to satisfy every one and they were happy to take party bookings.- Hubby and I have worked out that if all our daughters, grandchildren and great grandchildren were  to come - there would be 20 of us!! As it is - the Essex  family branch live too far away to come over for an evening - so we will meet up in Essex at a later date.
    • Tend to use 37 or 42 bus as rarely been able to find parking space. Sods Law - there is sometimes a few spaces when I bus it.!
    • Just to warn anyone thinking of employing or engaging Chris and Anna Richmond, that nothing has changed.  The accounts above from others are all too familiar.  A job that we were told would take between 6-8 months is now entering its 23rd month.  They have taken enormous amounts of money from us, finished nothing, and the quality of the work that they have delivered is poor to substandard.  They take no responsibility themselves - there are endless excuses and everything is someone else's fault.  They do not care about the impact that their actions have on anyone else.   They are, at best, chaotic. They have not delivered as the designers or project managers that they claim to be. They are rarely on site to monitor the progress or quality of the job that is being delivered and they and manage their largely non-English speaking workforce by WhatsApp and Google translate.  There has been little evidence that they employ the skilled tradespeople needed to lay tiles, install bathrooms and kitchens, decorate and complete to the standard that we have paid for.  I cannot stress enough, that if you are currently in discussion with Anna and Chris Richmond about a future job or have paid them money up front for a job that they have slipped in delivering, to quit while you are ahead.  Things won't get better.
    • Hi All, I’d like to recommend Aaron Manser, who several others on this forum have also used. Aaron is an excellent plasterer, and has just finished a complicated piece of plastering work for me, including a large expanse of ceiling. His work has been of the highest quality, his attention to detail is exceptional, and he’s also very quick, and tidy too. As an added bonus he has a lovely singing voice. Happy to provide any photos of the work he has done. This is the third time over the past few years I’ve had Aaron back. Aaron Manser - 07773 410661 Regards, Damien
