I sure did - gawblessyoumaaam for being so predictable ;-)


And the Bishop did win the best pub awards on this forum recently so I don't think you are that out on your own Strawbs. The thing is I know exactly what keef is talking about and sometimes I feel the same way too but I have had some cracking times in there as well. But it can be well lairy on a Fri or Sat night and I tend to avoid


Also I was minding my own business in the window seats recently and one of the manager guys saw me eating the new-fangled crisps they have in there and asked me what I thought of the cheese and onion versions. I said I hadn't seen those and he gave me fresh batch gratis - I mean it wasn't random, he knows I spend money in there but it was still a nice touch. And at Bishop prices that was nearly worth another ?50 ;-)


As for Liqourish - I am partial to their pancakes, syrup and fruit brunch when I have a hangover. They also do a "Players" breakfast, on the menu, which consists of black coffee, a cigarette and a whisky I believe....

Excellent plan Brendan, definitely up for crawling.


David has perhaps forgotten that we are crawling around breweries in Czech Republic last week of July and first week August so won't be able to make it if it was August forum drinks on the 1st.


However maybe an ambitious plan for a friday night??? Originally I was imagining an afternoon to evening, especially if we are to manage Keef's route!

There's no way it could be an evening thing if we were gong to do more than just Lordship Lane... I was imagining meeting in The Plough at opening time on a Saturday, and finishing gone midnight, with those brave souls who made it through then heading to Kebab & Wine! :)-D


For a smaller version, I am liking Brendan's choices (CPT, Drum, Plough, Gowlett, George Canning). Only problem being the distance between them all.


If we were doing the Gowlett, I might have to insist on a visit to The Wishing Well on Bellenden! Myself, Mrs Keef, and Jah Lush had a very nice post Ganapatti drink in there a while ago.

Hannah I think you are right. This will have to be a Saturday as I doubt it will be possible on a Friday. Keefs entire route will require 2 days followed by a visit to the emergency room.


Any thoughts on this route?


1. Canning

2. Hoopers

3. Gowlette

4. EDT, Bishop or Black Cherry

5. Drum

6. Uplands

7. CPT

8. Plough


Onion, Bobby, you will only have to run if there is someone chasing you.

I am coming! And If I don't like any of you lot I could always lose you between the pubs eh?

And no photos, I don't do kodak moments.


How many drinks will we be having per pub? or do we have a time limit in each pub?

I like details see.


I shall be bringing friends. You might dislike them as one lives in Camberwell, one in New Cross, and one in Brockley. Not everyone can be as posh as us East Dulwich lot but it is not their fault where they live.

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
