this is good news for Dulwich village

i will pop in once it opens but i bet they will be a bit pricey for me as the overheads for the village shops will over spill onto us the customer


went into Scotch Meats Independent Fine Foods Rosendale road and was expensive

i think i will be sticking to William rose on lordship lane or the butchers in Nunhead

William Rose isn't organic and its very expensive (imho) .......

And the fact that it says "organic and free range" in large letters outside, despite the fact that much of it isn't organic (don't know if all the rest is free range).

There are alternatives to WR and this new butchers in the Village. Personally I use and can happily recommend W,Buntings on Peckham Park Road, it's on the 78 bus route just off Peckham Hill street close to the junction with the Old Kent Road. I always get well looked after, is a family run business who care about what they do.

Personally I think William Rose is great and some of their basics are very good value, better quality than the biggest local supermarket but a comparable cost. That said, they've been doing what they do for a while and another gourmet butcher in the area will probably inspire them to greater heights.


Bring on the meat war!

These guys are great. It may not look as suave as WR but I?ve been using them both personally and professionally for six years. They supply a surprising number of well known restaurants, including Franklin?s. Chris and Mark really know their stuff.

Can anyone really tell the difference between a chicken from the butchers and an organic free range chicken> Apart from the cost. Because I certainly don;t think I could and I very much many others could either. Usually a nice plump chicken from the butchers comes in at under a tenner. I vary rarely buy pre-packed meat from the supermarket, much prefer the butchers because I know it is fresh.

Just shows you what suckers we are really.


They were selling rib eye at ?28.50 per kg the last time I went in. And of course I bought it as it was the only rib eye they had that particular Saturday.

    • It’s a 4 year old on a bike do you really think he is going 15mph. Grown adults complaining about a child who probably isn’t able to string a few sentences together says a lot about the people in this forum. If this member was hit from behind the father was probably walking behind the bike so I don’t get the point of stretching out an overreaction from a child in Nursery bumping into you. Grow up Obviously a four year old should be cycling on the pavement.
    • Malumbu,  if none of us were there, does that mean that nobody should post anything on here unless they have witnesses from the EDF? Why would someone post something like this if it  wasn't true? This is not about whether children should or should not be cycling on the pavement. There are specific issues. a) the child was out of sight of the person supposed to be caring for him b) he appears to have been  either not looking where he was going or was out of control of the bike c) if he did see that he was about to hit someone  he apparently did not give them any kind of warning  d)  a person was unexpectedly hit from behind whilst just walking along, which in my view makes him a victim e) does the title of the thread really matter as the issue was described in the first post?  f) nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? The OP was not complaining about the 4 year old. They were complaining about an adult's lack of supervision of a 4 year old who was not capable of riding a bike and who hit someone from behind with no warning. Also, apart from reading the OP more carefully, perhaps also choose your words more carefully. Jobless? Lunatic? Charming.
    • Completely jobless and lunatic behaviour coming on a forum and complaining about a 4 year old and the child’s bike riding skills. Honestly grow up
    • I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa.
