The Pizza Oven has been in place for a while now..

The Counter in place. The Outside signage is done

The outside repainted.

There seems to be a floor laid internally but may just be a screed. Cannot tell peering through the window.


After taking on the place work seems to of progressed remarkably fast.

Lets not get too excited. It's yet to open. Like I say, I was told it will open next week.

Hi Louisa.


I've no idea. The website for their Brixton site does not give any details of drinks available.

I spoke to the owners last night as they were fixing the sign above the shop. I asked if the Pizzas would be wood fired and he confirmed they would be. I literally punched the air in jubilation at hearing this. So excited I forgot to ask if they were also stone baked. Can anyone confirm?

Draft is good news.


The pale ale and lager at Franco Manca is relatively expensive.

Walked passed last night 9.00pm Seating installed and Wood fired Oven visibly on.

Don't they take a couple of days to get up to full temperature? Some places Never turn them off, ??


Looks bigger for some reason. A pleasant looking make over. I feel it probably do well.

I will pay ?100 to a charity of your choice, if you can eat a pizza 31 seconds (without stopping to huff and puff it cool) of it coming out cooked from a wood fired oven.


You name the place, I?ll set up the challenge.

I seldom eat Pizza. Never in a Restaurant. You know that.

I'm ill. I can just about manage 1/2 a 9" Margaretta

Anyway I'm going into Hospital tomorrow morning for Surgery under General anaesthetic.

The procedure is complicated and comes with risks.


The last thing on my mind at the moment is Pizza.

Thank you Sue


My condition is not 'curable' It all went well though and I am now 'Stent Free' but I will have the same procedure in a few months time to see if anything has changed.At the moment I can eat only a few mouthfuls of any food. about 100gms.

I get 3 meals out of a T/a curry Can work out quite cheap :)


Anyway I started this thread to talk about The New Pizza Place where Jaflong used to be.

I think it opened while I was away, as did Saucy.

Not had a chance to see them yet. Yet to ventured out of the house.


I'm sure they will both do well. It's totally down to them. There is a lot of competition.

    • what's scandalous is our government allowing it. The should and can impose fines and order works which would lead to TW becoming bankrupt, at which point it can be taken back into the public domain.
    • The privatisation of water is just ridiculous. I have the Safer seas and rivers service app on my phone (recommend it if you like to swim outside) and the regular (weekly) sewage dumps highlighted all along the south coast is just outrageous.
    • That's a disgusting slur against an innocent driver who was probably just on their way to drop off freshly-baked muffins at an orphanage when they had to swerve out of the way of a so-called "cyclist", and anyway traffic lights are just a Marxist conspiracy by Southwark Council to slow traffic down and force people out of cars, so we're all better off without it.
    • Frothy coffee? Not really my bag. A double espresso and a Marlboro Red? It's the breakfast of champions. The only dark drink with a creamy head which should ever be drunk by a man of my age is Guinness. I've also become lactose intolerant recently, meaning I get very impatient around milk. You make a fair point, but those legal channels are available for them to recover their repair, and legal, costs and, as I said: "It's up to them if they [Southwark] want to do that, of course." There's three or four grands worth of Cat N write-off, wrapped round a post there (more, if it's broken down for parts) causing problems. If they can't be arsed sorting that, I'm not holding my breath. Even Southwark couldn't screw their numbers up enough to make shifting the post back through circa 15 degrees more than a couple of grand, so there's a drink in it for everyone. It's a bit 'leany' just now, yeah, but I haven't noticed anyone having to limbo under it to get to Superdrugs. Or, they could make a feature of it. Pisa has made a fortune out of not sorting the underpinnings of their tower. Let's say it's an installation by someone called, I don't know, Bangsy, and it's a physical reminder that SE22 cannot deny its proximity to Peckham, Camberwell & Brixton. It's about the only thing that would get me back into The Bishop since the many dark afternoons of the soul I spent with Clarence*, the world's most depressed Weimaraner. *RIP big fella. You were always a great listener.   Come on Spartacus, don't be shy. You know exactly where the Green Cross Code Man was in 1973: less than a hundred yards away, on North Cross Road. https://youtu.be/C-XwVVMiCO4?si=rt8kQllev0t1Lgdi For some years, I found it quite difficult to go into The Forrester's after many long afternoons of the soul with Dave Prowse* (The Green Cross Code Man). *RIP big fella. You were always a great listener.
