As long as they have a car park and a drive through so I can drive there from my house.

The kebab shop on the parade of shops opposite The Plough wants to open after 11pm but the council won't let them!

Good guess is that whatever it becomes will be tatty and down market. All the top marque businesses are moving in to the lower end of LL. Look at the Plough and its sorry state and being across the road from Barry House asylum hostel may not be advantageous. The Bombay Bicycle Club is the most up-market business we have up this end.
I must try it again SeanM thanks haven't been there for so long. My memory of it includes going in one evening with my dad who lived in Ireland at the time and us two were the only customers and with three bar staff it still took ages to get served. That doesn't happen in Ireland where even if it's three deep at the bar you'll get served immediately.

Dez - absolutely hear you. I've lived up this end for 8 years and have wanted that pub to be a good "stop in for a quick one after getting off the bus" for most of them. I used to try out the old Plough every 6 months and it was always bad - bad service, bad to non-existent food, bad vibes, bad carpet. Actually scratch that.. scary,life-sapping carpet


Anyway - since the refurb last year it's a different pub completely. The food isn't great (head-office Mitchel-Butler fare) but everything else about it is pretty great. The open-mic nights every month are well worth going along too. If you pop in some night I might even see you there

    • That's great you have the cat! Sorry to interfere, and feel free to ignore this, but it might not be a great idea to post your mobile number on a public forum? You can message the owner on the forum via a private message.
    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
