...I know, another one of these... But we're all out of ideas.


We want somewhere decent to go for a late lunch with our 9 month old tomorrow, but everything is feeling a bit same-old. Any suggestions welcome for somewhere in ED, Peckham, Camberwell...even further afield


We like...


Ganapati

Tandoori nights

Swadesh

Indian Mischief

Angels and Gypsies

Thai Corner Cafe

Meze Mangal (Lewisham)

Hisar


PLease help us discover a new, old favourite.

Lunch scuppered through ear infection of 9mo - boooo!


Thanks everyone! assumed begging bowl not child friendly - but good to know if it is (highchairs etc?)


We walked past FM Mangal today - definitely going to give it a shot. Heard good things about the Silk Road too....


Babur I haven't heard of - we will check it out one day.


Good to know there are so many options. Hurray!

Cafe East, Surrey Quays. Kingsland Road quality Vietnamese. Buzzy. Easy parking, or get there by the Overground, heaps of high chairs. You may have to wait for a table but the turnover is quick.


No beer, no tap water and cash only are the negatives.

We went to the Begging Bowl a couple of weekends ago for lunch with our nearly 3 yr old and 9 month old. It's a bit of a squeeze getting the buggy in and the tables are all very close together but they do have a couple of high chairs and there are quite a few families there at lunch time. Plus the staff are very child friendly.

Is that for real antantant? No tap water? Isn't that illegal? (PS - I posted a few mins ago about my use of ant killer - nothing personal you understand...)


ETA - sorry for going a bit off topic, very much appreciate all the suggestions here

I'm not sure what it says about me but it's the not selling beer at Cafe East that annoys me the most!


But yes, I think you're right, the no alcohol license means they don't have to give water away, which is a shame.


We had Sunday lunch at the Gantry in Brockley this weekend too - and that was really nice, with a great garden for Summer.

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
