and the Mona Lisa , whats going to happen to that ? I really liked all the woodwork in the Wishing Well but it had gone right downhill last time I went in . Another Bishop ?? bleeeeeurrrgh .:'(

I remember watching a great fight between Eubank & Thompson (the first one) in there, that was a good night.


If you combine Montpellier's wine, Hooper's beer, the Gowlett's straightforward food offering and not lose too much of the wooden charm then it will be a great pub


Not been to the Montpellier, but other than that, I'd agree with that.


I have absolutely no beef with any of the people involved, but just really hope it doesn't become another Bishop (lots of people disagree with me, but I just can't make myself like the place!)! Doubt it will, as it's not on such a busy road.

AS long as they get rid of the giant plasma screen all will be well.


Trying to have a pint with a 6ft version of Corrie in the corner is not enjoyable. The back room had a pool table which would be nice to keep and it's a big space.


The Bishop's food would, whilst not setting the world alight, be a 100% improvement on the god awful sandwiches we got given on the forum's outing to the Wishing Well last year.


It's my local so I'll be intrigued as to how it goes. The rooms above are still letting so not sure how that'll work in the future.

    • Some Facebook groups I am in are, or  have become,  private groups, because there are  so many trolls on FB. Including a group set up to discuss birds 🙄 There are probably downsides to that as the admin has to approve all prospective members, who have to agree to certain rules I think, and I'm not sure it's failsafe. It's certainly time consuming for the admin. But probably less time consuming than having to pre approve all posts?
    • That rubbish is a health and safety issue. It could easily fall on someone walking underneath it.
    • A town square would be nice. Perhaps we could pedestrianise North cross Road and create a square at the junction of Lordship Lane. Can't imagine there would be any objections / controversy.  This is probably true, but the issue is not so much the level of the rent, but the degree to which it is sustainable in the context of the local market. The Landlords locally do seem to have squeezed rents to the point where places can no longer survive in many cases. Think the furore was largely manufactured tbf.
    • https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-14774205/Urgent-warning-opioid-deaths-Met-Police-pills-heroin-nightclubs.html?ito=email_share_article-top   I'm sharing this article to help to spread the word about these new deadly synthetic opioids called Nitazenes which are finding their way onto the drug scene.  Two more young lives lost last weekend in young people at a South London club.    Most people I talk to have never heard of Nitazenes which are being used as contaminants in a number of other drugs including sleeping pills like valium and Xanax, oxycodone but have also been found in vapes and sedative antihistamines and cocaine.  So people buying sleeping tablets and other substances have no idea of the risk they are taking.  This is a relatively new trend and the number of deaths is on the increase.  Do discuss it with your teenagers and young adult children and anyone you know tempted to purchase sleeping tablets online.  It really is a much more dangerous and potentially lethal time to buy tablets online or on the street and hopefully knowledge of Nitazenes can help people protect themselves.  This stuff is in London and no doubt, is already in Dulwich so do spread the word.
