You're a legend sir. Both these numbers are going under E for Emergency in my phone.


Unfortunately I fell asleep directly after eating a fortune cookie I found in the bottom of my bag and went to bed without any supper.


Now I'm wondering if anywhere delivers bacon butties as I have no food in the house but can't leave as I'm waiting for a delivery. Pah.

Actually this is a good thread...given its world status London is totally rubbish for out of hours delivery - why so?


Last time I was staying at my bro's in NY it was great to be able to order anything at any time - fully tested by ordering fresh Japanese after a big night at 4am and amazingly once "English Tea" - proper scones delivered to your door with cream and jam at midnight.


Hit the same hour in ED, get home tipsy and what do we have? Answer: Londis, a run the gauntlet walk to Kebab and Wine, or somewhere so far away that the foods cold /you've fallen asleep by the time it arrives.


If Surma or Hisar started doing delivery only after midnight to 3am I'd be a taker - but is there a market??

probably not, i'd imagine that's why nobody's doing it - lets face it, lefty though alot of us like to think we are, if there's an overindulgent demand in the market, ED is likely to be one of the first places where capitalism will thrive in that direction!

Think we are BN5, think we are?


Yeah, you're probably right. I'm vaguely aware of a fried chicken place in Camberwell that delivers late, but I imagine it's in all likelihood not up to ED's organic standards. Actually, what am I talking about - used it once and it wasn't even up to my drunk-and-will-feast-at-the-chicken-cottage standards.

I'd really like a HEALTHY fast food place on the lane for on my way home. Somewhere that does grilled chicken and a big leafy bean salad in a cardboard box, a juice bar and falafels. The closest I've seen to that is some of the fare Leon does in central London.


All the pubs, curries, fish and chips and kebabs round here...not good. In the future it will come!

Are you sure Wimpole?


Usually if I want food at that time, it might be because I've had a few ales. And if I have, then I'm more likely to want food badness than a superjuice.


That said, try Hisar for some tasty looking falafel and salad late of an evening.

its a good point. i always wanted the fictional service that was thought up in sex and the city when you can call the number and they will deliver anything, food, asprin, milk anything. and why not. its a great idea. when you're hungover, drunk, ill, injured, busy with the kids to go out. if this was set up in london it would do a roaring trade.

I don't think this would help my neighbours, who have a big family car but never seem to go out to get their own shopping! My mum was never so lazy when she had to put up with me & my brother. =/


I'd love to know if there are any takeaway services available out there. I was starving last night =[

      Building works at Dulwich Halal Grocery

      By EDmummy · Posted

      I had a peek when a door was opened the other day. I saw a large open basement (no floor at shop level) and stairs to 1st floor. The basement appeared to be across both buildings but it was the quickest of looks so I may be wrong. It may also be that the ground floor over the basement has not yet been put in place.

      GALA 2026

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      Yes, that compromise is in not extending the event to two weekends, and keeping it to the one currently.  Yes, I am getting that too, but just go anyway. I intend to.  I will talk to FOPR, and see if there is any interest for a petition from those going to the consultation tm. We just need some volunteers to get together and do the leg work. I've done political party canvassing before, and so can organise a ward by ward schedule. I think it's fair to say that any goodwill some of us had towards working with Gala has gone with this proposed expansion. They are not the same people that started the event with We Are the Fair. At least one of those people actually lived next to the park. The people running things now have no connection to the park or local area and quite frankly are taking the p*** now. Might be worth officially demanding to know where the money the council gets from the festival is actually spent as well.

      PM surely as a country we are better than this (Reform setting the agenda on immigration)

      By malumbu · Posted

      Sadly we need young people from developing countries with higher birth rates to do the work that Brits wont do, including many jobs in health and social care.  How you square this with minimum wages to get work visas I don't know.  A different subject for another thread.   Shortage of skilled workers is another topic.  We could return to the fact that young people from Europe no longer come to the UK for a limited time, to do both skilled and unskilled jobs, but that would bring us back to Brexit and the crazy decision we made as a nation. Some nice analysis by Sky News, tend not to use them as a rule but was surprised by the quality of this piece: https://news.sky.com/story/how-many-illegal-migrants-are-in-britain-the-key-numbers-driving-the-immigration-debate-13428405
