My son was at the Lido this weekend - it was mobbed as you'd expect. However, the strange thing is that the excellent cafe that used to be there has gone. Asking the manager the story is, apparently, that they're looking for a suitable caterer to take over the franchise but, so far, haven't found the right one.


Seems like a good opportunity for budding caterers out there?


East Dulwich Deli / Luca's / Blackbird Bakery / Herne Tavern / Petit Chou / Green & Blue - all provide good grub at different price levels. Any one could probably make a good go of it.

It is very much dependent on the weather, but a few years ago they had BBQs Friday and Saturday nights they were limited to 500 per night and each night a sell out at a ?10 per head it was great money they were making for cooking a few sweet corn etc.

Not many swam maybe 20%, and the rest sat at tables with a storm lamp or torch. Because it was a Friday night it extended the week-end somehow.

    • Completely unacceptable. They need to fund a proper, permanent park warden presence or this sort of behaviour will get worse. Parks should be safe for all to enjoy and being assaulted and threatened by teenage gangs may put more vulnerable people off using the park altogether. If they are prepared to threaten to hurt an animal then where might it lead?
    • Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?
    • A quick Google says that it is not undersubscribed unlike many subject schools so those claims mentioned above may not be true. Last Ofsted was good.  You are definitely right about the money. This is what trusts do. Remove word ‘subject’ above Remove word ‘subject’ above I can’t edit my ridiculous errors but would like to apologise  for messy post
    • I have heard claims that people don't send their children there because of the name of the school..?  I genuinely cannot get my head around this one. The school is named after the road it is on which is named after the history of the area!  'Grove Primary School' is potentially the most boring name they could have come up with, and for a school struggling financially, is rebranding the school really the best use of funds?
