Headed here when our usual place Nero was completely full. While the coffee and pastries were okay, the coffee was tiny and the pastries were nothing to write home about, we were more than a tad surprised to be presented with a bill for ?12.60 for two of us! On top of this they are taking rustic minimalism to the extreme, with hard chairs and terrible acoustics. We will definitely not be returning!

Haven't been in the day but several times in the evenings and we love it. "Hard chairs"? They are chairs - like the ones you get on most places so I don't really know why anyone would complain about them! Also the acoustics are just fine, another curious observation.


The service is also good, the wine fantastic. My only gripe is that with a limited menu they do seem to run out of some of the more appealing things too early in the evening.

Surprised about the comments re:coffee... I much prefer the coffee served in toasted, and frequently pop in to get a cup to take away. While the sizes are smaller than Nero the quality is in my opinion far far higher - and such nice bar staff as well!!!! It's about 1.90 for an americano and 2.20 for a flat white (but more if you're not taking away) so I don't see it as more expensive than nearby places. Can't comment on the pastries though!

    • Ah sorry, it was comedy.   
    • I have never used AI in my life. It's just notes from my forthcoming monograph on light industry in Dulwich and Camberwell 1879-1946 (dates chosen for obvious reasons).
    • Thank you, this really made me chuckle. It's like you met my brother as he would be the one taking more than his share. Plus the 'pikey' chutney is a winner. Unusual as in can't be identified??? Sadly I'm not the host otherwise I would definitely do that I regularly shop in the Cheese Block and am a fan. But as people have pointed out, there is no cheese shop that charges less based on bulk, so Aldi unusual cheeses may be what the familam receive! Yay, so I can get discounted mouse nibbled cheese still! Oooo, now I do love a Stinking Bishop. It actually offends my stepmum by it's stinkiness but luckily she is not one of the attendees at this particular gathering.  This is blooming genius. It's actually my partner who has the biggest issue with buying in plastic so I will have to hide the wrappers from him!
