Recommended Posts

Surrey Docks Farm. Honor Oak Park or Peckham Rye to Surrey Quays and then a 15 minute walk or bus. You can feed the animals and it's just by the Thames, so you can go boat spotting too! Closed on Mondays.


Horniman Museum-lots to see there and also outdoor space there too


Peckham Rye Park (adventure playground for the older one too).


Coram Fields (near Russell Square). Very large and safe playground suitable for both boys and also some farm animals.

Dulwich Picture Library and Dulwich Park opposite.


Southbank - if a nice day, fun just to hang around and listen to the various buskers. Always something happening and you can take in Shakespeare Dome; good views; Tate Gallery etc etc


Go on the boat from Tate Modern to other Tate. (or vice versa)


Greenwich - loads to do here from Maritime museum; Cuttysark; etc. YOu can also get on the boat here.


Science Museum; Natural History Museum, V and A - favourites with most children


Hop on the overland (from Brockley or Honour Oak Park) and go to Childrens Museum (Bethnal Green) or Geffrey Museum near Shoreditch - if you go on these websites they will let you know what holiday activities are on - usually involve some sort of workshops (free) most days for children.


Albany Theatre in Deptford for children's plays

    • That’s interesting, Dulwich Dweller; my 70 yr old neighbour told me 2 weeks ago that he’d left work early to go and book in person (being uncomfortable with all the online & app stuff) and was explicitly told that he needed to go away and book online. He’s not the sort of person to be insistent and, like a lot of older people, a bit embarrassed at his lack of digital ability, so he left without the appointment . This is my point about inconsistency, since his experience was quite different from yours. I’m beginning think that it rather depends on who, at Reception, you speak to on day…
    • Wow, never had a disappointing meal there since they opened.. guess like every establishment, depends on the chef.. All for allowing an off day - good of you to post.. much better than chains - had awful service at Gail’s for eg..be it cake and tea or a meal.. They are so nice and accommodating..       
    • "I tried Viet Flavour and was disappointed.  Their summer rolls especially were not at all good, stodgy and flavourless.  Pho-OK.  I'm hoping it will get better " Back in June I posted as above.  I am glad to report that either the first time I went the restaurant was having an off day, or they have upped their game.  I ordered the same things.  The summer roll was exactly as it should be, and had a lovely dipping sauce. The Pho was delicious.  My brother who was with me wanted to give it 10/10 but I always think you should leave room for improvement so gave it 9/10.  Staff were lovely.  I am so glad because I love Vietnamese food and now think I have a very good one just round the corner.  
    • So do I, and I started it!!!  I have changed title.
