Where do you reckon will be the best pub in East Dulwich to watch France v Wales in the Six Nations on Friday night (kick off 8pm)?


I watched the Wales v England in the EDT which was good, and will probably be first port of call unless there are other better suggestions as not sure what EDT is like for Rugby during the night time..

Been watching all the games in the Herne. Not sure they do Friday Game but on saturdays its been a good set up with 2 flat screen TV's, sound on and pie, mash and a pint for ?6.50. Not too busy and good atmosphere.


Hopefully be in there Saturday for Scotlands first win and then settle in for the Irish Game. Say hopefully as last time think I got a bit carried away with white russians and a wooden soup spoon!!! the mind boggles.

Indeed SMG, it was after the first round (of the championship, not drinks). Apparently was demonstrasting the correct squash stroke, forehand! Daryll (manager) after the last round of games said I was not to have white Russians....


Its been a great venue so far with good seats and not packed so bar access is not a problem. Also the sound is on and you dont have to beg for it to be turned up a milli second before KO.


Think there will be a few "Barry Runners" present for the Irish game on Saturday. Who they playing?!

The thing is that there is a good chance that a lot of pubs wouldn't even bother showing the rugby on a Friday night for the fear that it'll break the perennial 'dimmed lights - cheap DJ - loud music - candles' routine.


I think the EDT usually have their priorities in order and I'll be camping out there starting Friday lunchtime.

You should be more concerned about whether to support Italy or Scotland in your 3 way fight for the wooden spoon!!

Not sure that Wales are clear favourites; it's in France in front of a partizan crowd, and the French are quite capable of pulling something out of the bag against anyone. Add on top of that, Wales sub-par performance against England 2 weeks ago and it could be a very tense occasion.


Thank god I'll be watching it in the EDT to calm my nerves! :-o

    • Thank you all SO much for the suggestions.  I didn't expect such a helpful and well considered response. Our plans changed and in the end I didn't try any of them but I certainly will in the future.  You don't know how grateful I am for the help.. The strain and effort involved in dining out because of the background noise really puts me off . I do have hearing aids but they aren't a great help. And in fact magnify many of them associated sounds in eating establishments.
    • Jafar lives up to his 5/5 reviews.  A great job well well done. Dismantled the boiler replaced the part and everything put back together and working.  I can only agree with all his excellent reviews.  
    • I know I shouldn't bite, but .... Would you like to give some  specific examples of exactly why you consider this orange faced  narcissist with the apparent  mental capacity of a gnat (that's probably being unfair to gnats) and a clearly rapidly declining memory  the "best US president of the last 50 years"?
    • Southwark Council has issued a response  on changes to planning in London, urging a rethink -    “We have significant concerns over plans to allow developers to build fewer affordable homes in London, and to cut developer contributions to local communities.   “Under current proposals, the fast-track threshold for planning applications in London would be cut from 35% affordable housing to 20%.   “The proposals would also cut in half the levy that developers currently pay when they build, which helps pay for much-need local community improvements.   “Today we have submitted our responses to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and Greater London Authority consultations and urged a rethink.”   Read the council’s response in full https://southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/planning/planning-policy-and-guidance/responses
