I don't particularly care if he is there, I was wondering why someone who supposedly didn't have anything to do with the Bishop anymore would still leave his dog there to be looked after by bar staff.

I can't see much of a change in there.

The service was very tired and the bar was dirty and not being to busy with enough staff to make sure the service was good and it to have been clean.

I think the staff needs a good shake up and it needed to look a little bit different not just a good clean up

Sorry not much of a change

Are you kidding? They've changed everything! Floors, walls, colours, furniture, everything! The filthy dirty dark pub has gone. The windows now open so it was nice and cool inside. They've a cool massive mirror behind the bar with beer taps in and they've thankfully done something about those foul men's toilets! Maybe your just not a very observant person! Credit where it's due, they've done a great job & I thought the staff were great!

Yes I can very much see there had been a refurb

But not very cool and trendy nor quirky design is it

I also couldn't see that it was very much brighter but yes the air conditioning was working much better

The pictures were naff the colour was naff and as I said staff were not smiling and not happy to be working

And again as I said before the bar was dirty and standing there for at least 30 mins with a terrible glass of white wine

Which I couldn't even drink it as it was that bad

I revisited The Bishop last night after a personal invite from the assistant manager to come and see

what they had done to the place as I had not been in for quite a while.


I have to admit the place is unrecognisable to the old Bishop.. The high window tables which I personally

disliked have gone.. The lighting has vastly been improved giving a much more pleasant ambiance.


The loud music has been turned/toned down.. and the usual rowdy mob of Jaeger Bomb drinking idiots were not

in evidence.


The biggest improvement are the loos... wish have now been completely refurbished to a VERY high standard.

The old loos were dreadful.


I was in there late and never got a chance to sample the food or see the menu..

Would definitely consider sampling the food there at a later date.

      Fireworks

      By Sue · Posted

      I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By Sue · Posted

      Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?

      Recommendation for a decorator in Dulwich/Peckham/Nunhead - Kam 07949 507412

      By Charlie15 · Posted

      Kam was with us last week to wallpaper a bedroom. He was a pleasure to deal with and did a fantastic job - very neat and matched the tricky pattern very well. Would certainly use again.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By TittyMaster · Posted

      What a bunch of pieholes. 2025 and you peasants have nothing to be grateful for. I have been inside the library recently and honestly the old girl is crying for a facelift, the goddamn carpet looks like it survived the world war and some. The Library is one of the oldest in Southwark and you are crying about a study place? What a bunch of bullshit. You have libraries all around you for your kids to go their studying you rotten sausage. How about be happy that the library is going to look absolutely stunning rather than be a whining bitch about it   Also, I have been told that the staffs have to work in the smaller libraries together. How do you think they feel?
