Oh no, this has ruined my week - the end of an era, I've fallen into that shop and ordered all manner of things in the middle of the night for a good few years now.


This settles it, there is nothing to keep me in London anymore.


However...do we think this may be the secret location of the new cocktail bar being discussed on another thread?

Disagree


Seeing as the old Pizza shop is at the now livelier "foodie" part of the lane, people do care and very much so


Specially as the Picture House, when it opens, will focus food further at that end of the Lane too


I know traders are making plans to change their offer accordingly, to make the best of the anticipated trade uplift


So "what's happening to empty shop" is very relevant, it's prime retail space

Seabag - what changes are the traders at that end of the lane making to their offering? Later opening hours? Change of use to to serve food? I'm confused. Those units up their are so small this place can't become a restaurant, so regardless of Picture House opening, it will at most become another deli or something of that ilk.


As for the couscous/middle eastern eatery that sounds like an online rumour to me. It's probably gonna remain empty for a while because of excessive rents and then be taken on by a charity shop.

As with other place near theatres or cinemas, traders will have a menu of quicker/faster quality food and wine etc. The kind of pre or after theatre offers you see elsewhere


Not sure about a Cous-cous bar (whatever that is) but a Ranoush Juice might work. The attractive thing about that area of the lane is, the shops have a frontage to trade off, as well as the shop space itself

      The economy, a sensible debate in advance of the budget

      By Sephiroth · Posted

      Can we get more data about this “fastest growing economy” thing. I’ve googled but can’t   find anything concrete  I do recall a bunch of unaffordable tax cuts which gave impression of boosting economy in short term in full knowledge they would have to deal with fallout.  So there’s that  but hey. If you are in the market for reasons why uk economy is in a doom loop might I point you to Brexit. And then I watch as people go “stop wanging on about that” and then they go back to complain my about doom loops and wondering why Tories lost so massively

      Its no good harking back to 15 years ago. The current administration was gifted the fastest growing economy in the G7 and within 15 months they have destroyed it.  Dismal figures released today on economic growth. Dismal figures released yesterday on unemployment.  Inflation has doubled since Labour took office and will likely stay at such grossly high rates when the next figures are announced next week. And things are only going to get worse this winter. Higher tax, higher unemployment, and higher emigration of wealth generators to Milan and Dubai have put the economy into a terrible doom loop.

      I have used them to get to places around Dulwich where there are no buses and you are no longer allowed to drive your own car. However, I have found them very expensive compared to other modes of transport.
