Yes it will be a shame because it is handy, but could be so much better. They haven't changed for years, which is sometimes a good thing, but I've been to similar shops and they have so much more. I used to get my dog food from there but gave up because they're always out of stock, so I gave up. I find the man surly, but the woman is good, very smiley and helpful
First time posted but a follower of the EDF. I had to pop in there this morning and asked the chap who owns it whether he was closing. He was very confused and said that they are definitely not closing and wasn't-aware of any speculation that they might be. The women who works there is leaving. He asked me to post on here to let people know

I was offered a look at the shop from my estate agent a couple of weeks ago so to my knowledge its definitely up for sale. I know the shop well, Its a shame the lady is going, she's always so helpful. Not so fussed on the guy though. Sat down most of the time, abrupt, rude. Used to be nice but acts like it's a hardship to serve these days..

Will miss the dog most!

I use the shop quite regularly for pet supplies and other bits and pieces and my own experience is that they have both always been helpful and friendly. The chap told me the women was leaving to pursue her painting and decorating business. Hope I've got that right!

I'm not a representative of anyone but myself. I overheard them talking in the shop but had my almost 2 year old with me who just wanted to grab everything so we left before a tantrum started!

I shouldn't have to defend myself, I read EDF all the time but haven't felt like I wanted to write anything until now

Time will only tell if what I heard was right and they want to keep it under wraps until it's set in stone or I misheard.

I spoke with the owner today of N&P Home Improvements,who assured me that he is not closing the shop,and it is true that the lady is leaving to pursue a new challenge as a Painter . Glad to know N & P isnt closing ,open 7 days a week selling Paint ,Houshold goods,pet food,fish food ,Keys Cut ,Tools and more ,hope this stops the rumours look forward to N&P TRADING FOR YEARS TO COME ,

The reason you are having to defend yourself, SJ4545, is that although you say you read the forum all the time, the first post you feel like writing is to start off a rumour which could be very damaging to a small local business and seems to be incorrect.

Wouldn't it have been better just to wait until the next time you went into the shop and ask them, instead of posting something you later say you might have misheard?

Perhaps you should edit the title of this post.

I know for a fact it was up for sale, whether it is still I don't know but the proof will be in the pudding. Like a lot on this forum questions are asked to be answered, if it's incorrect then so be it. If anything it's brought attention to it being there.

    • Thanks for posting this. Really interesting. It would be good if you added a star rating, so that it was easier to do comparisons / see what your top recommendations are. Great blog though!
    • Hi, Just a quick note to say it's six months since I launched Eats Dulwich. In that time I've reviewed 28 restaurants. Usually four or five a month except for a month when I came down with gout, which I guess is an occupational hazard. Don't say I don't suffer for my art. Early on someone – Sue, I think – asked me what I'm going to do when I've reviewed every restaurant in East Dulwich. I'm nowhere near that point, but what I have found is that a lot of new openings have tended to be in Rye Lane, so the site has expanded to cover SE15, hence the slight change of name (still haven't had any cease and desist letters from anything with a similar name).  Anyway, the site is still free, it would be great if as many readers as possible here can subscribe so that they automatically get new posts (when you try to subscribe the default might be paid subs but that's down to Substack, just tick the free option instead) as I don't post everything on EDF. Obviously you can get reviews elsewhere if you want, but I think this is the only proper site for local East Dulwich people written by a local East Dulwich person. If you like eating out please have a read. And if there are other places you think I should visit please mention them below and i'll do my best to try them.

    • Can you explain what your point was, then? Because it isn't clear to me. No. Perhaps you could provide a link and explain its relevance? That would be helpful     Those figures suggest that over 10,000,000 voters were not "rejecting a far left party."
    • Anyone can deliver for Evri - my daughter having just passed her driving test tried Evri to make some money - they basically give you a route and as many parcels as they think you can cope with - you make money for each one you deliver, so you can imagine - speed is the priority. Why would they wait for you to answer the door when they can just throw it and take a photo? If you have a choice, choose a different courier service or shop elsewhere where they do.
