Spangles30 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Has anyone else found the man in the Cheese shop really surly and rude. He can't even muster a smile - and at those high prices I'd be positively beaming.And while we're on the topic, the young guy with whacky hair in the Health Shop is also downright rude whenever I go in. I wish the shops had some competition as maybe this would force them to improve their service!

david_carnell Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Has anyone else found the man in the Cheese shop really surly and rudeCan't say I have no. Not exactly bubbly but his wife and daughter are always extremely helpful.As for the high prices....show me the same cheese in London at lower prices and I'll eat a truckle.Sorry Spangles, think you might have caught him on an off day.Never been in the Health Shop....purveyors of snake oil and all that.

lozzyloz Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I'm all for competition. Were you thinking of starting a smiling competition? Best retail smile on LL? I've always found the Cheese Block guys to be really good humoured and Health Matters staff have always been helpful too. Perhaps they're saddened by your imminent departure.

SeanMacGabhann Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Wacky-hair guy in SMBS is a great laugh - as are all of the people in SMBS I findThe don't look like they take any nonsense mind - if someone ventured in with an attitude of "my good man bring me some tamarind" (and I'm not saying that was you spangles) they probably wouldn't get the full smile, noCheese shop I frequent less (not being a cheese guy, nothing to do with the shop) but I have picked up some ham and preserves from time to time - seem fine to me Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1722-the-cheese-shop-and-adjoining-health-shop-lordship-lane/#findComment-47844 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassius Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I think the staff in the Cheese Block are great, much more friendly than the ED Deli (in my opinion). The Health Food shop staff are (again in my opinion) like most staff in health food shops - in need of a decent meal/fag/drink.

ed_pete Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I'm sure this was discussed before but am unable to find the thread...vaguely seem to remember mixed views on the topic and someone suggested he may have been having an off-day and another suggested that he was mourning the death of his wife...(apologies if my memory doesn't serve me too well) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1722-the-cheese-shop-and-adjoining-health-shop-lordship-lane/#findComment-48039 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knoxette Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Somewhat new to EDF but is it a place where recommendations are genuinely made? or is it an area where you can let off some steam/have a whinge? if Im on the site looking for a good cheese shop then am i right in assuming this is a shop selling good quality cheese?
