You made the right choice - ED has all the gentle elegance of Tooting combined with the edginess of Hampstead.

Good answer!


You'll do well on this forum, friend.


Welcome.

Welcome to ED! IMO one of the nice things about ED is that you have lots of diverse neighbourhoods on your doorstep, each with its own gems in terms of things to see/eat/drink.


Dulwich Village for a genteel environment, world class gallery, nice old pub

Peckham for bars, good places to eat, cheap cinema, nightlife, and the best patisserie for miles around

Camberwell for several excellent restaurants, plus a pub with a crazy cider selection

Plus good places to eat and drink in Herne Hill, Forest Hill... hell, even Nunhead.

Not to mention Lordship Lane of course.

Hi there! My boyfriend and I have also just moved to the area from Scotland! Going really well so far, people are lovely and East Dulwich is just a beautiful place with a real sense of community. We are still finding our feet but a great pub we have discovered is the Lions Head, great food, lovely beers and really nice people. Good luck with the move and anything we can help with, just ask!

    • It was a weird place, and there never seemed to be many people in it. Stalls/selling areas (they  weren't really stalls as such) came and went. For a while there was an area upstairs as well. Around the beginning of ED  gentrification,  someone opened a champagne bar near the entrance. I think it also sold oysters, though there was another oyster place in the market, possibly not at the same time. Whether it did or not, unsurprisingly it didn't last long. I can't imagine they had done any market research, or even wondered why anybody would want to drink champagne in that kind of environment. I'm not sure an indoor market would work now, but what do I know. It would depend on what it sold and whether people wanted what it sold, I suppose. It wouldn't get much passing trade in Zenoria Street, so it would have to be very well advertised.
    • Guacamoles in Rye Lane market for pretty authentic Tacos  Ganapati on Holly Grove has some of the best south Indian  food in London - light, aromatic fresh, home style cooking - lovely location and people too. Forzawine is fun for a rooftop terrace, great view, cocktails and good small plates     
    • Someone to carve Dulwich posts.  Any recommendations?
    • Hello, is anyone looking to sell their car? I’m looking for a reliable runaround and finding a lot of spam/scammers on other sites, so thought I would put the word out more locally thanks.
