Louisa Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Hopefully C?te Brasserie will be moving in. Or CAU.Edited to add, I have just checking the planning portal and Cafe Rouge is set to become 'The Real Greek', which was originally moving to ED. Change of plans? Louisa.

DulwichFox Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 The rent for Jaflong with a small flat above was ?45,000 and was due to rise to ?65,000. So The Real Greek did not happen, maybe because as I have been told, the asking price is now more like ?88,000 DulwichFox Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/156772-cafe-rouge-dulwich-village-closing-next-weekend/#findComment-1147629 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeLeg Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Does anyone know who the landlord(s) up and down Lordship Lane are? They're plainly going for as much rent as they can get (which is of course their prerogative, not looking for an argument about the usual things), I'd just be interested to know if it's individuals, or one big landowner etc, and hoping someone else already has the answer?

Mick Mac Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 The Real Greek, gets decent reviews across the chain and will I'm sure be a success. Captive customer base anyway.

Mick Mac Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 The contrast between the spending capacity in DV, and the culinary product available on which to spend that money, must be quite frustrating for some I'd have thought.

tomskip Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I find it frustrating that shopping and eating out in the UK is so dominated by chains. I guess it must be to do with high High Street rents but going in to central London and finding two Pret a Manger and two Starbucks (just for example) within a couple of minute's walk of each other makes me feel a bit meh. It feels so different in France/Spain/Greece/Germany/Italy and I don't understand why it has to be different here.

tomskip Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Yes, I think I'm saying why do our town centre commercial rents have to be so high that independents cannot survive in them? It seems to work ok in other European countries. Can't comment on the US or other places as haven't visited enough. The UK is notorious for it's dull High Streets. I've lived in Brixton, Dalston and ED pre-gentrification. Wondering where to go next!
