I was in the Herne last night (had a meal) it was very very good. Anyway...


Whilst manoevering my way through the builders that gather in the Herne come 4pm, I overheard one of them saying that the Forest 'ill was opening back up soon, and that they were glad to be going back up there. So I don't think it will be like the Rye Hotel or anything. I would say it's still going to be a local boozer.

really PeckhamRose? is that from a "never been so just curious" perspective or a "I liked it the old way" perspective?


apart from the landlord getting fedup with the drugs and violence? Or reading the writing on the wall for alcohol only boozers and choosing to try stay in business?

Been in a few times before and after the refit. Think the place is alright now (the new decor veers towards the identikit/soulless but pulls back just in time, in my own opinion). Not eaten there.


Agree with the point above about the staff - they seem to be very good. My own gripe is that there's been football on the last few times I've been in, and it's visible (and audible) everywhere. Can't those who want to watch it be segregated from the rest of us?

Been in a couple of times - over last summer the garden was pretty good (and quiet too), however went in there a couple of months ago and the food was dreadful - I ordered chicken which was raw, when I complained to the waiting staff she tried to tell me it was ham(?) (it was that pink!!). Won't be hurrying back.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
