While it is correct that we have Gymboree for children aged 1-5 at the rear of building - we really wanted the Cafe to be able stand up on its own 2 feet so to speak. With this in mind we have thought very carefully and have tried our best to create a community space that while being attractive to little people also very much caters to mums, dads, joggers, commuters, dog walkers, serious coffee drinkers and the footballers in the park



How does the Gymboree work is it pay as you go? membership?

I went to Cafe G yesterday afternoon and it was a great start. Good coffee and cakes & lovely staff.


Really hope it does well, it is much better than I invisiged it would be from the description of a cafe within the Gymboree and it's rather worryingly convenient for my morning bus stop!

Hey - I'm a bit confused about how this works.


I'm looking for a cafe where I can take my toddler and his friend this Sunday. Is the cafe toddler friendly, considering as it's attached to Gymboree? does it have a toy space for them (a la Dish and Spoon). I don't want to let them run off wild but it would be nice to catch up with his friend's mum a bit....!


I don't even know whether it's open on Sundays.


Normally, I'd just go to the Dish and Spoon but someone told me that it's not open at the moment so I'm very lost.

Gymboree is next door. It appears that it will be used for classes etc, not casual play. You can't see it from the cafe part either. It's not set up like Dish and Spoon with a toy space etc. Plenty of room for buggies, but there isn't a play area in the cafe part.

Yes and no... there are some time slots allocated for casual use, but you need to be a member. And membership is expensive... about the price of an actual gym!

If I try that one, the response from the wife will inevitably be "so you're more important than the baby, then?"

I like the pub itself but find the playroom a bit "cold" both in temperature and atmosphere.

    • This is a remarkable interpretation of history. Wikipedia (with more footnotes and citations than you could shake a shitty stick at sez: The austerity programme was initiated in 2010 by the Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government. In his June 2010 budget speech, Osborne identified two goals. The first was that the structural current budget deficit would be eliminated to "achieve [a] cyclically-adjusted current balance by the end of the rolling, five-year forecast period". The second was that national debt as a percentage of GDP would fall. The government intended to achieve both of its goals through substantial reductions in public expenditure.[21] This was to be achieved by a combination of public spending cuts and tax increases amounting to £110 billion.[26] Between 2010 and 2013, the Coalition government said that it had reduced public spending by £14.3 billion compared with 2009–10.[27] Growth remained low, while unemployment rose. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_government_austerity_programme From memory, last time around they were against the LTNs and competing with the Tories to pick up backlash votes - both failed. They had no counterproposals or ideas about how to manage congestion or pollution. This time around they're simply silent on the matter: https://www.southwark-libdems.org.uk/your-local-lib-dem-team/goosegreen Also, as we have seen from Mr Barber's comments on the new development on the old Jewsons yard, "leading campaigns to protect the character of East Dulwich and Goose Green" is code for "blocking new housing".

    • Revealing of what, exactly? I resurrected this thread, after a year, to highlight the foolishness of the OP’s op. And how posturing would be sagacity is quickly undermined by events, dear boy, events. The thread is about Mandelson. I knew he was a wrong ‘un all along, we all did; the Epstein shit just proves it. In reality, Kinnock, Blair, Brown, Starmer et all knew as well but accepted it, because they found him useful. As did a large proportion of the 2024 intake of Labour MPs who were personally vetted and approved by Mandelson.
