Bloody pretentious French rubbish. The true French restaurant was Le Moulin, which none of you gastro experts visited on a regular basis contributing to it's closure. But now something nice, poncey and Clapham friendly has moved in its fabulous darling. Do me a quaver.

I like the French House, but the decor?. Part country cottage, part industrial, part psychedelia / 60s pop. All rather muddled IMO. Should have gone for the full on 1960s look, but guess budget restricted them from changing too much. Food is good though and it has very friendly service. Hope it does well.

I'm sure Eric and Margaret would disagree with your analysis *Bob*, water under the bridge nonetheless. Once Pret arrives locally I will be smugly satisfied that a McDonalds owned French sounding eatery has arrived to rival the Clapham blow-in indies aimed at the disaffected Putneyites. Boom.

I'm sure your regular dinner-for-two visits helped them out a little, for which they are no doubt eternally grateful.


Unfortunately you completely failed to see the link between you being their lead advocate on here at a time when they needed new custom - and you slagging off anyone who moved here after 2002 (ie 'potential new customers') on a daily basis.

Pop up Mediterranean tapas restaurant will be opening in the evenings at Prettys from the July 12th. Run by some rather nice French peeps.


Happy now? ;-)

It was built up too much and now I'm disappointed. Thanks for the update though :-)

      Franklins is being sold

      Just to repeat the news I was given – it's not being converted into a pub. As far as I know, there's no intention of dumbing down their restaurant offering.  Although as others have pointed out, Camberwell has two pubs – The Camberwell Arms and now the Michelin-starred Kerfield Arms – with excellent food. The Palmerston used to be the only pub in ED that was of such quality, but sadly no longer IMHO.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      The country is in a real state.  What worries me about the Greens is encouraging migration and openly offering benefits to all with visas.  Where is the money for that coming from?  As if there is spare money, as if there is growth. Where I their holistic manifesto, ensuring funds are available and this is sustainable, and regulated? Incredibly dangerous and idealistic

      I disagree with the use of the word "sectarianism" in this context and Starmer is a total a*se to have introduced it. In my mind, sectarianism conjures up the hatred and vicious violence of The Troubles in Northern Ireland.  The divide between the Greens and Reform are a long way from that and is more reminiscent of a time when the two main parties actually stood for something and voting was more a matter of following one's political beliefs. Nobody called that sectarianism.
