Well said Ron70, don't know why people can't give a business round here a chance. We are so lucky with what we have. Let business owners concentrate on their business instead of having to see themselves slated before they even begin.

One has to remember this is the 4th ?? incarceration of a restaurant on this site..


One has to learn why previous businesses may of failed. ?? and how to change things to put it right.


It is a large space. Some people prefer more intimate surroundings to a vast expanse with dozens of other diners.

Places which have cubicles are popular because they give diners privacy.

Who really wants to overhear over peoples conversations. There is always someone wanting the World

to hear their opinions.


This is why some destinations may never work.


When I was a child, I was brought up to not speak at the table.. when people are eating.

Yes true.. but things have a ceiling price.. although that does not seem to apply with food & drink in E.D.


If someone starts a business then they have to work out if what they sell or service they provide

can be sold or provided at a realistic price that still covers their outgoings and provides a profit.


This is the main reason why so many new businesses fail and why one can generally spot which prospective

new business is not viable.


It's not being negative. It's being realistic.

The area does not need yet another Italian restaurant. This is getting ridiculous, surely they've not done their homework and just opened up because of the cinema? It always angers me when people on this forum and estate agents/others claim ED is home to a eclectic range of restaurants - we are not! We just have a lot of the same things mostly Indian/Italian and/or Pizza. I for one have been craving a decent Greek place for years, we have a nice Turkish restaurant which is about to be replaced by yet another Italian. It just appears ludicrous.

    • Supermarkets have massive volume and tiny profit margins. If this were true Ocado would be dead by the end of the week, surely.
    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
    • It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition
