...turned back into The Wishing Well??


Tables are covered with used glassware, ash (on all outside tables) foods spillages (on tables and the weird astro turf floor outside - which is the equivalent to having carpet in your bathroom)...and I daren't even mention the state of the Ladies toilet which is beyond disgusting.


In fact it's probably unfair to say that they are turning back into The Wishing Well as this had cleaner facilities, friendlier staff and far less expensive drinks.


Where is everyone drinking now...because it certainly isn't The Victoria Inn. Please tell me where to find you all...

It's terrible now, fallen way behind most of the other Peckham Rye drinking spots. The food is awful, and the service is haphazard (although generally pretty friendly). It needs some attention from the management to bring it back up to scratch.

Was told that the same guy owns the Bishop from before. Guy with Weimeramer dog and lots of tats.

    • Just for information: I see that the Licensing Sub-committee has the Tesco application as item 1 on their 24 July meeting agenda.  https://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/ieListDocuments.aspx?CId=172&MId=8329. The officer's report to the committtee provides a good succinct summary.  I see, from (original) p.31 of the full public pack, (or more conveniently the supporting documents) that Tesco Legal Dept on 12 June reported that they'd agreed with the police's suggested conditions to be attached to the licence, and the police accordingly withdrew their own representation.  That leaves just one representation, from a member of the public, to be dealt with on the day. I still think it's not necessarily to be presumed that Tesco will definitely be taking over the premises.  I see that Poundland themselves were granted an off-sales licence on 21 Feb 2023, and surrendered it on 3 July 2025.  I'm not sure they actually ever used it themselves.  Did they? https://www.southwark.gov.uk/sites/default/files/2024-09/Statement of Licensing Policy 2021-2026.pdf is a full statement of the policy and its application, for thems as is interested.
    • I'm now just following David Peckham around, posting laughing emojis on all his comments.   
    • Well, quite. Do you know where your lad's going tonight?
    • I'd get rid of duty free shopping.  Nothing to do with tourist tax but something I hate.  All that glitz as you try to get through to Wetherspoons in the departure lounge.  No great savings over on line or even at times supermarkets, and the hypocrisy of selling cheap cancer sticks. Ok back to tourist tax
