reasonably priced restaurants in ED

Recommended Posts

I'm visiting East Dulwich after several years away and want to go out to eat locally on one of the evenings but Ive been told all the restaurants are too expensive. Surely there are still places you can get a meal for ?30 a head without drinks? Is the curry cabin still there?
Yes, Curry Cabin is still there. I imagine you could get a good meal for ?30 a head without drinks in any of the many curry houses on Lordship Lane. And just slightly off the beaten track (Forest Hill Road) there is Si Mangia which is a friendly and unpretentious Italian restaurant which I would recommend.
Depends if you just wish to eat or eat well . At Patch and Franklins you could easily come in under budget for 2-course a la carte. Palmerston is a mite more so you'd be bang on budget there. ToastED you'd easily go over. Anywhere else and, in my experience, you're not going to be eating anything particularly memorable. The menu at French House looks very tempting and reasonably priced although I've not yet been.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
