Admin note - This is the yearly discussion thread for new shops coming to East Dulwich and nearby. You can find the links to the previous years below:

 

To start us off, there is a new Deli called Chili & Garlic opening up next to Gails on Zenoria St. 

Website: https://www.chilliandgarlic.co.uk/

Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chilliandgarlicdeli?

There is a menu on the website and it appears to sell wraps, bowls and fruit juices.

The opening is not yet announced, but probably soon.

There is a new 'sauna and arts social club' opened up in Arch 842, next to Bronzewood Metal Works off Consort Road Sauna Social Club | Sauna and Arts | Peckham, London, UK

Also, probably not new, but new to me Banook Bagels | South London Bagel - Order Online

Perhaps the question to ask is why businesses are closing there, rather than "what's next?"

I'm sorry to hear that it has closed, but Grove Vale wouldn't immediately  spring to mind as the ideal location  for a shop (?gallery?)  solely selling ceramics.

Plus you had to go in and ask to find out the price of anything, which was a bit off-putting (well, it put me off asking again after my  first sharp intake of breath 🤣 )

Perhaps they overestimated the effect of gentrification?

I liked the shop but felt put off having to ask the price of things..I think it would do better in Dulwich Village.

It was'nt in a location I would immediately think of if wanting to spend £100 upwards on a decorative item for a shelf.

Love Dulwich  must be included.

Another lovely meal, freshly cooked. 

Use to always support other places on the lane but quite a few of them din’t reach even the basic mark of freshly cooked food. 

Guess will  see the likes of Megans closing - staff retention is zero & cooks change regularly. Hate chains, but that is personal.

Hopefully Jonnies will remain - since people who use them, have been using them for  years and generations.

@beansprout I'd be very happy to see the back of 'Megans on the lordship' or whatever its called The food is grim (nice on the menu the reality is awful) dreadful muzak and all round pretty dreadful.

I'd much rather see punters spending their money in places like Love Dulwich,Kanella,Johnnies and so on.

Holland & Barrett seem to be opening news shops in several places. They are opening a big shop on Clapham High Street, where the post office recently closed. Also on Oxford Street.  So a big expansion programme perhaps. 

They already have one shop on Oxford Street. If memory serves it's at the Tottenham Court Road end.

Where is the new one going to be?

Jojo Maman Bebe is closing soon. A staff member said they don't know what will replace it, but it will be something falling under the planning category of food and drink.

More food and drink places?

mind you..prefrable to a nail bar facial asthetics or estate agent I guess.

    • It does seem a common business strategy these days. River Island has just announced a similar restructuring: closing 33 shops and demanding that the landlords of a further 71 locations take a haircut. 
    • If anyone has any spare tickets for Crystal Palace on Sunday let me know!
    • The tenant's business has already failed. If the landlord doesn't accept it, they can have a vacant property, stand in the queue of creditors, and get paid little or nothing. It's a gamble that the restructuring will work and the tenant will start paying rent again. Commercial properties are often hard to let. 🤷
    • An inquiry will put a huge amount of time and resource into looking at what happened in the past and why it happened and who was responsible and, in a year or two maybe more, a report will be produced and actions may or may not be taken, some of those responsible for bad decisions will already have resigned and moved on.   Given that we now already understand some of the issues that allowed this awful behaviour to continue unchallenged, my concern is less about whether there is an inquiry to examine what happened in the past but about what is being done right now to protect girls and young women from predatory and exploitative men in whatever race or identity they come in. Inquiries examine the past but don't necessarily solve problems and they certainly don't come up with conclusions quickly which is why they can often feel hollow.  I'd rather see perpetrators and those that let the perpetrators act with impunity, actually being prosecuted and an inquiry won't do that.  I suspect that's why some MPs voted against an inquiry. But do feel free to give me examples of inquiries that really made a difference and actually changed things in a timely and effective way.
