You could go all Castro and call it Squat and Gobble.

I think The Lane sounds good...

hard to name it if you don;t know the style of food... if it is a sister restaurant to Terroir what about

Terrine

[SebsC]

The Golden Goose?

[Freddy1929]

there is a small caf? in St Mary's on the Isles of Scilly called 'Dibble and Grub' always loved the name (food great as well - the view is also amazing!!!!)

I think the name comes from a children's programme, Camberwick Green? They were the names of the Fire Men - I think?

[Bluebell2012]

No idea on a name, but just wanted to say can't wait until you open. Good luck with the preparations.

Keeping on that track but lurching into phrases, as well as puns -

Source for the goose

or just the standard - Sauce for the goose

I'm going to stop now.

Given the (probably incorrect) myths about the area, how about Iceni?

[edw]

As it's number 36, how about The Beer Barrel?

(there being 36 gallons in said vessel)

maybe a bit more suitable for a pub though...

Hi guys

Looking forward to seeing the new place!

I've worked on naming projects before so was wondering whether you're following the strategy for the other places in the group? If so, you'd need a wine-inspired name. How about these?

BARRIQUE (the classic Bordeaux barrel)

METHUSELAH (like 'Balthazar')

HEAVY TOAST (my personal favourite because it sounds slick and distinctive and appeals to the senses)

Otherwise, how about THE FRENCH PARADOX?

In case you don't know, it's the phenomenon whereby the French seem to live longer and have better health despite indulging in rich food and wine. As the name for a restaurant, it's an intriguing story.

I would steer well clear from any puns or Dulwich-related names as these are naff in the extreme.

[the-e-dealer]

or a Brewery Yeast Dulwich

Hair Dresser Neats Dulwich.

Circus School. Feats Dulwich

Dressmakers Pleats Dulwich.

.. trying to stop .!

Baby Minding

Teats Dulwich

In particular, anything containing a postcode just makes it sound like an empty nightclub from a 90's soap.

Not sure about "Heavy Toast" either, but just "Toast" sounds OK.

Vittles

[El Pibe]

Heavy Toast does sound a bit nuclear power industry.

If specific culture avoidance is the thing then French or Spanish probably ain't on, maybe some esperanto?

Verda kaj Blua

corr, it's got some great words

Englutema (very hungry)

Zinkisto (Zinc worker apparently, just for SJ)
