Probably not, but we're pretty well catered for now:


Organic veggies

Fresh Fish / Meat & Game

Deli / Cheese

Coffee / Tea shops

Sweets

Pampering / Make up (Dr Boo)

Lunch / Dinner

Clothes

Furniture

Books

Cook shop

Flowers / Plants


plus the odd charity shop!


Can anyone think of something else we actually NEED, I can't...and I'd rather shops were occupied that lying empty.

We need a good pattiserie, an icecream parlour and a pizza place. If the icecream/pizza place was big enough to accomodate prams it would be great if this could serve good coffee during the day. If you have a pram and find the chain place on the corner a bit souless, ED is poorly served for places to go for coffee.


We have too many Indian restaurants and not enough European restaurants. A few more Spanish/Italian/French restos would go down a treat, as would a fish restaurant.


Personally, I think that East Dulwich blokes are pretty poorly catered for in terms of clothes.


A small independent cinema would be lovely, but am not sure we can sustain it

The choccies in Hope and Greenwood are nice... not a huge selection though, and perhaps not absolutely "top end". A chocolate shop & patisserie would be nice.


I don't think we really need a pizzeria - Mon petit chou do pizzas, there's an italian place on forest hill rd, and rumours of another italian where "the green" used to be.

OB is a nice shop (there is one near my office, where I get 10% discount) and is great for last minute birthday presents. Admittedly not really for fellas.


It really is the last thing needed in ED mind you. :( A sushi restaurant/cafe would have been great :)

No. But it's cheap.


But the Ritzy in Brixton is much nicer - I'd rather pay more and go there - not far on the 37 :)

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
