Quite obvious that you're connected in some way with Ollivelli...

Looks pretty much like any relatively affluent London area to me. As long as the places are good then why not? (And not all of them are.)

Well I'm not sure about 'odd restaurant street' but it looking a bit like a 'Holiday Destination'

with a disproportional amount of Restaurant outlets to other shops.

Given how hard it is to get a reservation on a weekend, the number of restaurants simply reflects how much people here and nearby like to eat


Lordship Lane has a similar number of eateries as most vibrant high streets.


Best of all, in addition to the restaurants, the general area still has multiple supermarkets, two DIY shops, a locksmith, multiple dry cleaners, launderettes, a fabric shop, a plumbing shop, gift and card shops, a few clothes shops, charity shops, multiple flower shops / garden shop, kitchen design place, a few homes good stores, several pubs / bars, a new cinema, two gyms, a pilates studio, a tile shop, a tennis club (near south end of LL), squash courts (near the big Sainsburys), architects, law offices, MOT garage, a car wash, a sash window firm, the joiners on North Cross road, multiple vets, a Gymboree for kids, nurseries, churches and other places of worship, doctors offices and dentists, optometrists, a few jewelers, various beauty salons, barbers, picture framers, nail shops, pharmacies, a fish monger a butcher, multiple wine and craft beer shops, a nice Saturday market, a carpet and flooring specialist, the little gallery, two bike shops, book stores, Delis, bakers / cake shops, pet shop, news agent, a podiatrist, physiotherapist and more I?m sure I?m forgetting?


The area is simply incredibly well served with a wealth of businesses in addition to the other amenities within easy access such as Dulwich Park, Peckham Rye Park and Common, Dulwich Woods, Dulwich Picture Gallery, and the Horniman Museum.


The area isn?t unbalanced, holiday etc. It?s a vibrant area providing lots of services.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
