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

Potager - the one mentioned in the above post - looks like it should be completely finished soon and is a welcome addition.

It is a pity that the cafe near to it doesn't do anything to clean up its vandalised front. I think Renata Hamvas has told the owners about the council's free graffiti removal service, so it is strange that it should be left like that.

Wonder what the boarded up ex-dentist's between the two will be?

The MeatLiquor will be located in the new Boxpark next to East croydon station (ruskin square). Boxpark croydon is due to open in 2016- it was anticipated for summer 2016...

New restaurant opening in ED called "Spinach" it appears according this ad for a job I noticed while looking for one myself.... not sure where. and can't seem to find a mention during a google search.

Looks like the idea behind "Spinach" is veg-centric dishes, a la Grain Store.


Also those of you who use Deliveroo will have noticed two new options... "Tommi's Burger Joint" and "Yoobi", both from the same address on Melbourne Grove (maybe the old 'Scoop' ice cream shop?)

Re: Yoobi and Tommi Burger on Deliveroo...


It would appear that Deliveroo themselves are taking on commercial properties and building out kitchens (i.e. the space they have off Melbourne Grove).


They are then subleasing these to restaurants they have on their books to test the water in areas they can't service.

I think the main reason is that in order to expand to new postcodes Deliveroo needs a volume of restaurants to make it worthwhile. If they are struggling to get sign ups from restaurants, SE27 being an example, then they will try this approach.


In the case of SE22 I think they believe that they need more restaurants to give customers more choice and more reason to keep coming back to the service.

It's actually hidden away at 2 Maxted Road for anyone trying to locate the place..


There was a guy taking pictures of the outside yester day afternoon but still some work in progress.


Website is nice.. Sadly due to dietary restrictions out of bounds for me... :(

    • I'm guessing they're busy. I found out just now that the SNT has tracked down the kids who attacked my dog, had strong words with their parents, and the gang has now broken up. I got a lot of detail, which I won't go into here, but it sounds as if they were also quite compassionate towards some of the kids, some of whom may not have had the easiest of lives.  I know that those kids had nothing to do with the attack of the man in August and that they are also aware of the fireworks problem. Sounds like good community policing. 
    • I'd rather go to actual local Safer Neighbourhood Team meetings and see the whites of their eyes.  Ours in Peckham Rye Park ward (maps of areas the ward covers are on the police website; no idea about the new one!) used to be very well attended, but sadly now not so.  The local police of the SNT seem to change far too regularly so they never have a chance to really know the area and the people.  And the last meeting, held at the Tenants Hall of Brenchley Gardens (so right on the edge of the geographical area), was held with one day's notice.  Not good.
    • Friends of Peckham Rye Park sent emails to its members (do join if you can; it's useful) saying a few nights ago a fire was started on the SE22 side of the park by kids with fireworks.  Horrific.  
    • No One Said It  Was  However spending money you haven't got and increasing national debt is not a great way to run a country now is it ? Or has common sense left you 🤔
