Those prices should have guaranteed that Kerry Catona at least turned up seeing as she was booked.

FYI, Oliver Boner is part-owned by Iceland hence the off-liste celeb sharing.


I might have got the wrong end of a fabulous yet useless stick on this but shall persist.

I for one must disagree. overpriced is not exactly the word i would use. i find it no different then any other retailer on our high street and please don't disagree i shop all of the time in ED. I think it adds one more option for us to spoil ourselves, friends and family. Good for OB! finally a London born privately owned shop that has proven their success.


As for miserable staff - sorry you thought so. I work in Islington and go to the shop there on a regular basis and have been met by bright smiles, a fun atmosphere and great help. I ventured into the ED shop on the weekend to be nosy and found it much the same everyone seemed to be having a good time in a packed out shop.


I don't understand why people on here are always so negative. something good comes to town takes a chance on the market and more than likely will succeed.


before you ask...no i don't work there...


See you at Cafe Nero... if you can find a seat cause it is so busy all the time.

    • Thanks for the suggestions! If the Angel Oak is the pub on the edge of the Rye, it's probably not too far, but there might be more central (to East Dulwich) pubs to try first. No way will Nyge and I  ever  go to the Cherry Tree again, sorry. We had the most appalling Christmas Day meal there,   which cost us nearly two hundred pounds (for two people) without drinks. It was the only place within walking distance  locally which had availability that day, apart from the Plough (which ironically we wanted to avoid after previous bad experiences with the food  there). We did complain at the time, and were given a free bottle of wine (we don't often drink wine and were having beer with the meal) but we did not want to make a huge fuss and spoil other people's day as well.  Our detailed complaints in an email  were never properly addressed, and my last email to the manager was never answered.
    • Looking for an iPod - preferably a classic - with at least 60gb storage.  Anyone have one hiding in a drawer? Thanks. 
    • Sorry to have missed this one but hope to make the next.  Re suggestions, is the Angel Oak too far?  Or the Cherry tree
    • Not strictly a new place but new to me: stumbled across a fabulous cocktail bar at 210 Rye Lane - we loved the gorgeous, eclectic interior, they make any cocktail you can imagine and will be doing small plates. Think it's called XOTO? opposite the Tesco express at that end of Rye Lane.
