I tried here this week.


I think it depends what you mean by 'good coffee'. The best coffee I've found nearby (roughly in order) have been at:


1. Browns of Brockley

2. General Store, Bellenden Rd

3. Cafe Viva near Peckham Rye station

4. Dish and Spoon - on a good day.


I know St David's in Forest Hill is supposed to do good coffee but I've never tried it.


But the point is, by those standards I've yet to find a really decent coffee in East Dulwich (yet).


The cafe looked nice enough otherwise...

St. David's has absolutely fantastic coffee and some really great food too. I've found Homemade on Barry Road (very close to the Rye) has good coffee too (and delish brownies).


"From the Forest" across from FH station also had good coffee. Further afield, in Honor Oak you get great coffee (and cupcakes) at Nandi Nandi - Moira and the team are also lovely people. Arlo & Moe near Crofton Park station also has good coffee and eats.


I like my coffee :)

We went there today for a quick coffee and ended up staying for two! Coffee (latte) was lovely - hot(in so many cafes they serve it tepid) and strong. Croissants were fresh, flaky and not dry and we had a lovely fresh orange, ginger and carrot juice. Service was friendly and the prices reasonable. There were some lovely sounding sandwiches on the menu so will definitely be returning to sample one. Definitely recommend.

Went today for brunch. Really liked it.


I had poached eggs on muffins with spinach, wasn't sure what to expect but it was really well put together. Coffee was good I thought, my partner had a mocha which she said could have been more chocolatety but was strong enough at least. Service really good.


They didn't have a veggie version of the full breakfast would be my only criticism.

I'm a big fan of the Aneto cafe. It opens early (around 7.30am on weekdays) which is a big plus, and has free wifi. The menu is great, lots of healthy options, and always nicely cooked and presented. I think they have very cleverly filled a gap in the market.


Personally I think it's reasonable to ask people with dogs to sit in the very nice outside area.

Had yummy takeaway cakes from aneto before, but this weekend finally got my arse over there for breakfast and it was fab... I had poached eggs with spinach, but others had bacon sarnie, full English and a couple of the specials and everyone agreed it was lovely. Staff are v v friendly and we had to kids in tow, who they were v good about. Pls support this new local venture :)

Went to Aneto for the first time today. I LOVED it - delicious coffee, lovely eggs and smoked salmon (and a fab veggie breakfast for my friend - not on the menu but they were happy to make anything he wanted). Also, perfect carrot cake. Very reasonably priced and extremely nice, attentive staff. Can't wait to go back.

Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.
    • Having just been to Co-op to redeem a 50p off Co-op members' card voucher on an item that is now 50p more than it was last week, Tesco can't come soon enough
    • Surely that depends on the amount.  It can be quite piffling.
