We have an adult birthday outing next week and looking for a place to have a nice meal but where kids (7 and 3) will enjoy themselves too. Not a cafe but not anywhere with posh glasses to knock over either! Walking distance around East Dulwich. Is there a decent Italian? Or anyone been to the Great Exhibition with kids?


We usually go to the Plough as there is a nice outdoor space for kids - but the food is really just chips etc. Hoping for something a little special?

I second Rocca. Lovely inside, reasonably priced. Really child friendly - my mum and dad take my children there every week for ice cream and are so familiar with the waiter he has been giving advice on primary schools!


Food is very fresh and tasty too

I cried when I saw the new Menu. My favourite Eating /water hole now has nothing for me. I am a veggy and don't like Goats Cheese. There's a lot of us who don't like it. And 1 option for veggies is like a little concession? So If I want to eat out two days running I have eat the SAME thing? Very Sad Day. I know a lot of you on here hate veggies - so you have a laugh I expect you are also the ones who say we shouldn't celebrate the mis-fortune of others when her name is /thatcher. Oh and The Sunday Roast - Veggie Dish? The Same Goats Cheese Flan!

Rocca is brill. I love the beef shank ravioli and our toddler loves the pescatore pasta - the waiters are fantastic and always very impressed with my son picking through clams and mussels by himself! Rocca is now our staple special family occasion restaurant.

On ll same side as the hospice shops, down towards gg roundabout


We find them quite tolerant at quiet times

Can get hummous and pitta as soon as you sit down which is a boon

Sharing several meze keeps everyone happy and mr f gets grilled meat - I am a veggy but like lots of little dishes like cacik, grilled halloumi, borek

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      By Rockets · Posted

      Two wrongs don't make a right. Labour ran on a manifesto of "we aren't like them" and "we are different" and"you can trust us/we will restore faith in politics". They are doing nothing to convince anyone that any of those promises are being met - they are letting everyone down. u-turning on everything and are fast-tracking the doomsday scenario of a Reform government. Even the runway on the "it's all the Tories fault" is running out. I dislike politicians because they cannot be trusted and Rayner just highlighted that with ribbons on. She should have been so careful after the focus on the electoral roll issues she had with the house in Ashton-under-Lyne and then under a year later this comes up. Clearly the advice she took included a recommendation to take proper advice that she failed to do - that's just daft and the most galling thing is that she didn't just resign when this came up - she tried to spin out of it but must have known she was toast. Trust is fast being eroded. I desperately want Labour and Starmer to fix this because the alternative it too scary to think about but the way things are going they are fast-tracking Farage into No.10. Labour are letting us all down.

      So you are also old enough to remember the Heath Out protest by the TUC when unemployment hit 1 million? We all have selective memories, this thread is no different. Please give me a list of the Labour sleaze. And compare it to the Tories.  There are a few of you who appear to have a long term dislike of Labour, so all this is a gift.
