Hi


We have been going to the French caf? for breakfast and lunch for a number of years (the new caf? is the same as before just with a better layout)but tonight we went there for dinner for the first time.


They have a small menu but there is plenty of choice and because it is a small menu everything is done really well.


We had moules mariniere and steak frites. Both were great and the steak was cooked medium rare as ordered (a minor triumph for restaurants around here!!!) I have also had their burger for lunch and that is great too.


We also had crepes for dessert these were very yummy and we may just pop out for these as a treat in the future.


The atmosphere was really nice, a pleasant hubbub of friends having a good catch up without being loud (imagine the friendly atmosphere of the morning caf? converted into an evening restaurant vibe).


It is indeed BYOB at the moment. Even better!!

I will try to get a picture of the menu when I'm passing. Haven't eaten there yet but popped past on Friday hoping to get a table and they were full! It's a small menu, but everything sounds delicious.


Currently doing BYOB on Thursday, Friday and Saturday but the sign outside suggests they're also applying for an alcohol licence to serve wines throughout the week. Hope they get it - such a nice spot.

My wife and myself had a very nice evening in the French Cafe Bistrot the other night. We have been there on several occasions. The menu is small, but the food is excellent. They do have daily specials and this time I tried the Duck which was delicious.

Staff are very friendly and the bill was reasonable.

I was here this morning.. My first visit since the move from down the road..


It's always such a pleasant experiance.. I love the outside seating at the new place ... a real Sun Trap..


I opted for the Portuguese Custard Tart (Sod the blood sugars) and a Pot of Tea..


The staff here are delightful. A cheerful 'HELLO..' as you walk in.

..and with the Sun shining, a real bonus.

      Is the Choumert Road bus stop open yet following the ending of pavement works. Thanks

      There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By malumbu · Posted

      Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm

      If you mean the one outside the church going towards Peckham, it still had the closed sign on it this morning, but as there are no road works there, I'm sure some of the drivers will stop there on request.  The stop outside the chippy coming from Peckham is closed as there are road works in front of it.  The 4 way traffic lights are in operation.., causing a lot of congestion.
