Due to this topic being excessively long, a new 2024 "New Shops in Dulwich / Peckham" has been opened here. Please continue the discussion there.

Had coffee at Trio early last Saturday morning. The coffee was good and the space great. Will go back for lunch one day.


Then had breakfast at Cafe G on the Rye and it was really, really tasty, although a bit more expensive than I usually pay.

Sitting at the lights in Kennington on Saturday, I observed three adjoining estate agents on one side of the road opposite two estate agents on the other. Locals probably have to use Ocado because there weren't any obvious shops.


It's handy if they want to pop down the road and buy a house though.

So getting back to the old ED Deli site and Molly Meg/Anorak impending pop-up closure. Do we have any idea who or what is interested in this site? I understand an application to extend the retail space has been submitted? If it is another estate agents I will give up the will to live.

I still wonder about maybe Costa, given the apparent success of Caffe Nero over the road. I'd be amazed if anything independent could afford that space.

It is...


1. (Building) a room built largely of glass to afford exposure to the sun

2. (Electronics) a bed equipped with ultraviolet lights used for acquiring an artificial suntan

3. (Commerce) an establishment offering such facilities

I wonder? I really like Il Mirto too. Dartmouth Rd would be a good spot for them and not much local competition.

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
