Eh?


The Dog is fine to have a drink in.


Don't know about the food as I've never eaten there.


ETA: I mean never eaten there in its most recent incarnation.


I had one of the very worst meals of my life there about ten years ago ......

Blimey - what were the Dulwich Estate up to allowing a Bikers pub into the village - they won't even allow cashpoints!

I popped into the Dog last week and asked and they said the pub would stay the same but obviously the hotel bit would need the approval of the Dulwich Estate, which it still hasn't got. And, knowing the Dulwich Estate it will probably be a resounding "No." That's my take on it.

When it's in Dulwich Village and not East Dulwich.


Louisa.

As you say, it's "fine" but not "great". I wouldn't go out of my way to visit it. Dulwich Village could do with some more destination restaurants and pubs IMO - and this sounds like it could be just the ticket.

    • I see some possibly overloaded grandparents, with mobility issues, trying to help their overloaded daughter. They put some feelers out in anticipation of having to look after their grandson who, it seems, it extraordinarily smart and requires extra stimulation. A big ask all round. That they weren't yet aware of exact dates hardly warrants your complaints of time-wasting. 
    • The shops selling gifts, interior stuff and clothes all sell different gifts, interiors stuff and clothes. They don't all have identical items, which would be ridiculous. It's a  completely different situation. The coffee shops and restaurants mostly also have different vibes, different food etc and cater to different tastes and pockets. The two empanada places have virtually identical displays of identical looking empanadas. I don't think anyone has suggested this move is "malicious" - that would make it even worse. Cheeky, yes, given the proximity to the first shop. I agree this is good advertising, though most people in ED probably don't look at the ED Forum (I stand to be corrected). Re the "organic grocer", if it's the one on the same side as Chango, yes their snacks are very tasty.  Unfortunately we were short changed there on several occasions when calling in late at night, and were once asked  a ridiculous price for a few items (with no price tickets on the snacks) so we don't go there any more. Hopefully these were all genuine mistakes, and hopefully things have improved since their refurb.
    • Makes sense though… or do you not think so? Can’t book anything without dates!!
