Senor Chevalier - you can get a pretty good authentic flat white from the Blue Mountain Cafe (on North Cross road, ED). I was very pleased to see it on the menu not so long ago! And the staff were very familiar with the difference between a latte, Americano and the flat white.


All this coffee talk also put my high alert and whilst getting some lunch at Eat today (Southbank) I notice they too do a flat white.

What is all this nonsense about Peckham, SE15? I live there and some parts are great!

And not all of us talk in street patois thank you very much.


Frog on the Green is a great cafe in SE15. I bet if you asked John, he would rustle up a fantastic Flat White. So.. enough stuck up, ill informed snobbery thank you very much.

I can confirm that we cannot afford either humour or irony here in lovely SE15 (due to council favouritism of SE22 etc. etc.) but we have a liberal supply of sarcasm.


P.S. Nancy, that was for my pals Rosie and Quids, not aimed at you. :-)

Rules of EDF #342: Anyone extolling the virtues of anything in another area has some kind of chip on their shoulder, directly related to the meagre value of their house and the fact that their local pub is unlikely to sell a ?9 fish finger sandwich

Jacks Tea & Coffee House open at 8am till 5.30pm Monday to Friday and 9-2am "Brunch" Saturday.


Come try our flat white's out i promise they are good, we also do Espresso, Ristretto, Piccolo, Machiato, Afogato, Capp, Latte, Mocha and Hot choc with 70% Belgian Choc & Marshmellows

Ditto mrnzjac.


I'm a kiwi, when I go home for holidays I'm always struck by just how much coverage the royal family get over there - NZ is a nation of royalists!


I too would love to know where to get a good bacon and egg pie - have lived in the UK 10.5 years and still miss it.

    • Just shows, to me, once proud to be a citizen of UK.. now.. well if we pay/contribute to services - nhs, police, fire etc and folk who have made this there home - no matter what creed or culture.. for the love c of God, can someone  please explain to me.. how we have working royals who like them or not, have tried and continue to actually support and make a change and then we have Andrew.. who just destroys everything.. not just him, or royalty but his own children..  I had great admiration for The Queen - and respect.. as have a huge number of people.. but.. these old traditions where gosh.. live rent free and can’t get chucked out until I believe 2070? From what I scanned..well he has and continues to have it all.. has to go thru what old rules? Etc.  doubt very much he has even kept the upkeep maintenance up on his abode.. and do the shite keeps on pulling up.. What has Andrew done for UK or for that matter since he was 20?? Do please tell me       Totally off topic, before anyone jumps down my throat.. I just do not get how anyone is proud to be British at this point in time. Whoever is in power, seems to be able to help themselves to the public purse with no redress at all - Covid is a great example of lining of pockets.. Millions  given to Rowanda, so one is led to believe, to help with refugee problem and one can’t get a plane load off!  I simply do not get it at all. Use of food banks in UK growing yearly, homeless as well, nhs, police, fire service etc all on their knees..        
    • Have applied the green roof at a number of properties and no issues you are concerned about detected. Have issues with cats defecating in the vicinity, however, they are not selecting the green roof specifically. Use decent compost, slow release fertiliser specific for green roofs, and lay it methodically not leaving blank patches. It looks amazing when cared for and adds value.  
    • Some suggestions for mandatory action might include:- 1. Permit retailers to display facial images on the premises  of previous offenders at their local store. 2. Sound an alert and display images on screens inside the store when the FR flags up a person entering who is on the national database of shoplifters. 3. Physically bar recognised shoplifters from the premises. Should they attempt to force entry then charges should be pressed under aggravated trespass, which  a criminal offence under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994. 4. Change the law to allow retailers to have enhanced powers of citizens arrest. What would you suggest? The UK seems to have the most lenient policy towards shoplifting , probably because of other demands on the police force. On the plus side, they may have more time for it now that non-crime hate incidents will no longer be investigated. Other countries, such as the USA have much more sever punishment as does Singapore where repeat offenders or aggravated cases can be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison, a fine, or both.
