Best coffee on Lordship Lane?

Agree with Toasted (although not in the same class as St David, General Store, Anderson etc). Had a take away from Franklins at the weekend which was actually decent and very close to ESPH.


It's a shame as there's so many awesome coffee places in London now, yet none on LL!

Quite agree adsyb99 there is definitely a lack on LL.


For my money there is a big triangle, from the cafe at South London Gallery, Mousetail van at Peckham square, to Browns at Brockley (is that a triangle?! Isosceles maybe) which completely avoids ED, sadly. Oh, and the Dish and Spoon's coffee is pretty good too.


But hearing you all, will give Toast a go...

KikiMac, this has always bothered me too!


The places you mentioned all serve fantastic coffee, but for whatever reason, no where that comes close to these in ED.


Toasted is definitely drinkable, but I've noticed a big variance in quality depending on who makes the coffee. Always friend in there though.

I'd agree with others that Toasted is by far the best in ED. It does, as always, depend on the barrister - Leo makes excellent coffee.


Franklins is quite good (again depending on who makes it) and uses Volcano beans.


Outside of that I travel out of ED to Arlo & Moe (Crofton Park), Anderson & Co (Bellenden Road), Caf? Viva (Choumert Road), Browns (Brockley) or Bambuni (Evelina Road).


The London's Best Coffee app is usually a pretty good guide.

    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant. 
    • Still, I guess it could be a lot worse than water being thrown at you by these numpty youths during these warmer times? thankfully it wasn't the more dangerous mugging type youths that crossed your path waving knifes and guns in your face!  just a thought? hopefully these muppets will get sorted by plod soon, but don't hold your breath. 
    • Another dramatic spike the previous May 24 -  both crimes around the car park -  could this be related to the massively increased numbers of people around Gala time?
    • No, no need to shut down tfl, just cut out the unnecessary and expensive beauracracy, simples.  Sep, you don't even live here.
