We popped in today. Thought it was very reasonably priced - OH opted for a nice tarte flambee and I had a salad. I asked for some bread with the salad as I was worried it might be a little on the small side considering the ?8 price tag- in the end it wasn't needed as portions were very generous but was eaten nonetheless because it was so tasty. We also had some coffee (which I can confirm was also good, although not sure yet if it beats ToastED) and some delicious wine. We will be back and look forward to bringing our French friends as we know they would love the atmosphere and the food too. What a wonderful addition, and we wish the best of luck to Audrey and her team.


Finished up the afternoon with a trip to la cave de Bruno for a refillable bottle of wine then sat with a glass of it in the park. What a wonderful place we live in!

I like it. They've put warmth and some cosiness into this space. And it's rather quirky but in a good way. Nobody can complain about the menu prices. The tarte flambees and salads make up most of the menu but thats great for more relaxed dining spot.


Completing your authentic South London French experience with a trip to Cave de Bruno was an excellent call Karackers - I did just that last night. He has a couple of great imported champagnes that cost less than the branded crap all the Brits seem to buy. He's also a nice guy.


Anyway - good luck to The French House.

We went in for lunch recently.


Really like the vibe and the food, but I had tartine (a tartine? The posh cheese on toast, anyway) and though it was absolutely delicious, I thought the portion was quite small, and I was still hungry afterwards.


Maybe I'm just a pig. Or maybe I should have had lunch earlier. Or eaten breakfast.


Next time I will have one of the tarte flambes, which look wonderful.


The beer was good too :)

Jeremy - yes its basically a menu of cheese on toast and three nice salads. And a great French onion soup.


Tarte Flambees, I've since discovered are like ultra thin (5mm) French pizzas without the tomato. Then they also have big slices of toasted sour dough bread with French cured sausage, cheese leaves and shit.


The beer? Well that was the only thing I found odd. It's nice but all from Camden.

Finally popped in tonight for the first time with my brother. What a fabulous addition to the Lane. Food, wine, music and service was absolutely superb. The staff are really lovely and such a great vibe in there. Definitely going to be a regular haunt for me now. Love it.

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      By first mate · Posted

      Completely unacceptable. They need to fund a proper, permanent park warden presence or this sort of behaviour will get worse. Parks should be safe for all to enjoy and being assaulted and threatened by teenage gangs may put more vulnerable people off using the park altogether. If they are prepared to threaten to hurt an animal then where might it lead?

      Dog Kennel Hill School to change name

      By beansprout · Posted

      Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?

      A quick Google says that it is not undersubscribed unlike many subject schools so those claims mentioned above may not be true. Last Ofsted was good.  You are definitely right about the money. This is what trusts do. Remove word ‘subject’ above Remove word ‘subject’ above I can’t edit my ridiculous errors but would like to apologise  for messy post

      I have heard claims that people don't send their children there because of the name of the school..?  I genuinely cannot get my head around this one. The school is named after the road it is on which is named after the history of the area!  'Grove Primary School' is potentially the most boring name they could have come up with, and for a school struggling financially, is rebranding the school really the best use of funds?
