What kind of place do you prefer? Noisy with music or at a level to chat? Crowded place or more spacious and chilled out? Somewhere that does food - meals or nibbles - or do you just want to drink? Would you rather somewhere with a decent wine list, a decent cocktail list or a decent range of beers?
I really like the bishop, LOVE THE RYE, EDT but not when its packed.. Have always wanted to go in to the palmerston but it just hasnt worked.. If you are watching your pennies then avoid adventure bar but on the right night it can be a funky scene.. Oh and the pheonix at denmark hill is the nuts!!
The Lodge above the EDT is a great bar and restaurant and you dont have to be a member either any more to go up there. You can go for a few quite drinks and chill out in the red room with some cool music or eat in the restaurant. Great food

The Rye is great, quirky feel to it and friendly management and staff. Even better in Summer.


Black Cherry is becoming my favourite bar on the Lane, good vibe, good service, great cocktails and you can hear yourself think. EDT is good for an afternoon chill out and has good music on a sunday evening, gets rather noisy on Fri and Sat evenings; but they do have some great DJs.


Adventure Bar pulls in a younger crowd and is pricey BUT they do half price cocktails until 8.


The Bishop is something of a pulling palace of an evening BUT does great Sunday lunches although the service can be a bit patchy.


Hoopers is our nearest bierodrome with good tap ale and bottled European beers and ales.


The Gowlett - does the best pizzas.

Blimey, I must lower the tone when I'm in there then, which is quite frequently :))

I'd rather be shackled in rags, being fed saucepanfuls of my own boiling blood by a masked torturer than sit in the company of other couples on Valentine's Day.

Yeah! I couldn't agree more Honk. Absolutely vile. I'm hoping most of the pubs stay Valentine's Day free and leave it to the restaurants to go all smaltzy on us.

It's looking increasingly likely that I shall lock myself away on Valentines night with two or three bottles of claret, a couple of spliffs, an Indian takeaway and Match Of The Day.

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
