zeban Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Hi Tarot, Peckham is really not far to go for a Superdrug or Sainsbury's DKH has quite a large stock of toiletry type products. I like Sea Cow for fish and chips. And there's a toilet in Cafe Nero- I know only one but it's better than none.I like the independent cinema idea but then again I don't mind going to Brixton and I really love The Ritzy. I think just more cozy type restaurants/bars that allow for a less in your face kind of atmosphere (not sure how to explain this better!) but then again that wouldn't cater for the families around here. Also some cheaper places to eat and some kind of noodle/Vietnamese style restaurant would be amazing (for me!) and a Natwest (sick of the ridiculous queues in Peckham) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/8575-what-does-east-dulwich-lack/page/15/#findComment-396642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarot Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 That sounds good, Noodle bar, and a cinema. Most cimemas are quite small these days, one could be fitted in somewhere. I heard a rumour they may have one at Crystal Palace, but I think that plan has been shelved now. Things are changing in this borough, it used to be a sleepy little place once. But I do think it will rival places like Camden, and markets like Greenwich. Given time and new bussiness,s springing up.

Mandisa Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 There's a post up about someone possibly intoducing a cinema. I'm fairly new to ED and love my movies and this person was suggesting a private hire cinema where you can bring your own drinks. Sounds really interesting Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/8575-what-does-east-dulwich-lack/page/15/#findComment-397648 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarot Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Its clear from all the items on the "wanted and for sale thread" that people in East Dulwich need their own boot sale site.

monica Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 A tea shop that stays open until 12am, (1am Fri and Sat) an alternative to pubs and bars. I am tea total and will not go into a pub or bar, but I still want somewhere to go till the wee small hours of the morning.

huncamunca Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Get a grip people - amongst all the unfeasible toss mentioned on here , a Cinema ?you seem to think you are living in some kind of twisted Richard Curtis stytlised Urban Utopia, with Hugh Grant as a next door neighbour & That tiresome Gryff Rhys Jones sockpuppet as as stall holder on the NCR.Its a scruffy South London Borough, surrounded by some of the worst poverty and depravation in Europe, not Notting Hill or Aldeburgh, however you view it.Pfft Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/8575-what-does-east-dulwich-lack/page/15/#findComment-398403 Share on other sites More sharing options...
