LOL! >:D<


I cover Abbey Wood as part of my job, it's the easiest place in the world to get lost!!! They do have a camp site though :-S

So.. back to Hoopers then, which is found on Ivanhoe Road, SE5. Well, Hoopers, they're having a 'party night' on Friday which will involve a piano and some food (yes, picture if you will). And as it's a lovely local pub, with owners that made the effort to invite every household in the area to offer their opinion on what sort of pub they thought it should be (and they seemed to listen), and because I like their candles in the windows, the new hanging baskets and because my husband likes their beer and I cant really complain about the wine, i just thought I'd mention their party night.


When the Ivanhoe closed down to be refurbished and metamorphasise into Hoopers, we had thought it was closing down for ever and although we're not big 'pub-goers' we were absolutely gutted to hear the rumour that it might become flats. I feel it's really great to have a local and just want to see it succeed.

Please note that threads are not Lounged simply because they relate to Camberwell.


The Church Street Hotel thread was 3 months old and, after its resurrection was definitely, not East Dulwich specific.

The William booth thread became "chatty", a discussion about someone's university campus I believe. I'm sorry it irritated you so I shall de-lounge the latter as it was actually quite interesting.

from what I learned at the forum drinks there a couple of months ago, the guys that own it (and it is independent, not brewery owned) have sunk all they owned into this venture. They have bought the property and want to run it as a pub but sensibly have a back up plan should it go pete tong.

Here is a copy of the planning link (thanks Regeneguru, SE5 forumite extraordinaire). Apparently it's undecided.

Sounds like the flats are just above and to the side - is that right?


If so they shouldn't cause the closure of the pub so good luck to them then - they will be rolling in it!

'Last time I went up there it was shut'


Ditto.


They need to get a beautiful young Eastern European barmaid to work all the hours they can't be arsed to open. That might get things moving. But then who'd want to buy a flat above a busy pub...


Bit of a conflict of interests perhaps.

I just think that having a local pub that's off the beaten track with owners who are passionate about their trade, canvassed the local neighbours for input, run a clean pub, have great beers and a mix of rugby and football is a great thing and should be supported.

Does anyone know if it accepts cards yet? One of my problems is that I always seem to be cash poor, and the thought of heading down to LL and back again for a pint is often a barrier to my popping along.

Yeah yeah, if I thought ahead.....if wishes were fishes...

I really want them to do well. If the pub is changed to residential use because of lack of trade that would be a travesty.


That said I'd like to know where on the customer feedback forms people requested short opening times and a cash only bar?

I have followed this thread from time to time, and I think the exact line of a postal district delineated a very long time ago, often before important features such as retail & leisure developments changed how the public moved around districts,is less important than where you are focused in seeing as living & working in. We personally bank, shop and(when we get time)relax in ED.So we think that as here ED is closer than Camberwell Green & our closest station is East Dulwich, then that is where we reckon we are.But, hey! what do we know?

Jamie H- If where you bank, shop and go out drinking defines where your house is then mine is slap bang in the middle of the square mile- should be worth an absolute fortune.


Glad to hear you have been following the thread - ignoring the debate about your location we've certainly given you a glowing report and plenty of free publicity. So give us an update- how's business?


Has the 'ED' location paid off?


Are you serving food yet?


Do you now open 11-11 or even later perhaps?


And do you take credit cards or have a cash machine or both or neither?


What about the flat development- how is that going?


Can you give us some reassurance that your sideline in property development will not be to the long term detriment of the pub?


Perhaps you could give us a guarantee that you will never put in a change of use application to convert the pub itself to a residential unit of some description...

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
