Megan?s

Recommended Posts

To Let sign has gone onto the boarded up front and builders were in there on Monday stripping out the work that has been done. I saw inside and it looked to me like it wasn?t far off finished. The menu on the website looks great so I was looking forward to it opening. But guessing they?ve decided not to open in ED. Anyone know more? Still says ?opening soon? on the website.

Could the "To Let" sign either refer to a flat upstairs or else have been put in the wrong place?


It seems highly unlikely to me they would decide not to open at this very late stage.


Why would they?

I just posted on the 'new shops' thread in general topics.

Having been to the one in Dulwich Village twice -once to try it out when they first opened and more recently because we were in that neck of the woods-I really wouldn't get excited about going there.

It looks good but service was haphazard, food was lukewarm and didn't live up to how it sounded on the menu and worst of all they play awful 80's music (both times same music must be on a loop-no wonder the waitresses seemed slow they've probably lost the will, listening to Aha,tears for fears, that warbling song 'True' by spandau ballet etc etc on endless rotation)

Do yourself and a small independent a favour and spend your money elsewhere.

I love 80s music! Sounds fab! (New wave: how can you have a name like NewWave and hate 80s music 🤷🏼‍♂️)


Some one should tell them that absolutely no-one I know calls Lordship Lane "The Lordship" though.


People will think it's situated on top of a pub 🤣


[Their sign says "Megan's on the Lordship"]

Very confusing, and sounds a bit ridiculous in my opinion.


Didn't they do any research before naming it? Wonder what The Lordship thinks about it, especially as they provide food as well.


What will happen if The Lordship is googled? And it's only just up the road, on the same side!

Maybe, looking at their website, Lordship refers to Lordship lane as that seems to be how they name their other businesses after the place or road they are on.


IMHO rather then relying on a bad experience at another branch, give them a chance, see if the management team at this one has it right rather then doing the typical EDF trick of putting a business down before you've tried it.

But they haven't named it Megan's on Lordship Lane!

Lol I think I was mixing up New Wave and New Romantic music... Though I believe both did start in the 80s/post punk.


80s pop was indeed pretty trashy, But then I like a bit of trash now and again. I'll be giving Megan's a chance

If I ran The Lordship pub, I?d be getting the name of my pub taken off Megans?s signage !

Megans on 'the lane' sounds better anyway-kind of villagey and local surely more the image they wish to promote.

Still bewilders me why they think they need a huge branch in Dulwich Village AND one on Lordship Lane.

I just cannot see them both surviving especially with a the country going recession.

Back to food though...I'd rather eat at The Lordship than Megans 'on the lordship'

    • Sue. You really don’t have to keep saying about the electoral system    a) we all know about it b) it doesn’t matter    FPTP is the system we have always had and hopefully we will get rid of it someday but it is what it is    when anyone suggests changing the system Corbyn is right there at the front of the queue to prevent it   so its pointless him or any of supporters complaining about it    the evidence you want is the result of the elections. You can’t have clearer evidence. 
    • Has anyone from the school commented? Have they said why? Is it a fresh start? Is it that Grove in the name may have connotations of wealth and they want to attract more applicants from a wider area? Is that it currently is linked to the DKH Estate? 
    • As you quite rightly say a sample of 500 is extremely  small. (actually unrepresentative in the scheme of things) Now corbyn has his own party or should that be Party, it'll be interesting to see if it is merely a "think tank" or if it contests seats and then if they win any and if they chase currently held seats by Labour. It'll be even more amusing if it unseats current Labour Ministers though.
