Well quite... Ridiculous name (can tell it's offensive without looking it up in a dictionary Loz!), nothing could induce me to go in there. It's like a return to the seventies or something.

Completely agree! I usually have a puerile sense of humour but don't think this is particularly funny or clever.

Wait and see.. They will be packed out.. queuing down the lane to get in...


No one has the gumption to boycott this place despite what they might write here..

.. and why should they. ?


I must admit at first the name went over my head and I never saw the innuendo till mentioned here.


I'm just a bit slow.. :)

Maybe they're labouring under the impression that East Dulwich is an internationally renowned stag night destination, on a par with Magaluf or Ayia Napa?


I don't mind a bit of smut either usually but this is just spectacularly misjudged. A shame, as I normally like trying new places and the pics look quite nice on Facebook, but I don't think I could bring myself to set foot in somewhere with a name so irredeemably naff.


I do hope it's a wind up...

Agreed, but I was laughing at the poster being offended at the strange definition they had to look up on the net and yet missing the completely obvious just-as-offensive one.

For years there has been the popular and critically acclaimed Meat Liquor in W1.

It's a gag. Hopefully they'll reveal their real name shortly having gotten some good controversial PR.....or


...its a dying throes of hipster movement play ala Death Row Dinners and Cereal Killers Cafe....In the totally wrong family orientated location. Even in Peckham it would jar.

Meat Liquor actually serves Meat and Liquor, so the name works.


I doubt Pussey is on the menu at Pussey Liquor.

This evening I saw Made in Chelsea's glamorous Victoria Baker Harber walking down the Lane. She looked like a nice young woman. And I certainly don't know, but I did wonder if she was going to PL's opening.


I tend to agree with the sentiments given about the name - somehow it doesn't fit with my impression of ED being a considerate community. I certainly don't want to hear children asking what PL means. I don't think ED is prude, just a bit cleverer.

Now I'm no parent (I hate children in pubs, or should I say parents in pubs who feel it's their written right to tell adults how to behave pubs around their children, but that's a different thread) and no feminist but I think it's crass. I do have visions of a parent walking down the street with a child whose just learnt to read calling out every sign they see and say Pussy Liquor and a random bystander starts giggling. How do you go about explaining that one? The fact they know they're being 'risky' makes it all the worse as they know what they are doing by using their name to get everyone talking about them. Which I've done. So I'll stop.

Referring back to Mrs Slocombe, and her pussy, this thread http://www.minki.net/aybsforum/showthread.php?t=4759 gives lots of examples of things I saw and heard as a child which have failed to scar me for life. It's a joke, however funny or not you find it.


When I watch Are You Being Served now it's much funnier!

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
