...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.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
