Jocky

Who is the owner of this fine vehicle? and does anyone know the reason it's been marooned on the pavement for ages?

Have been going in here a lot recently! It's a door or two down from the bookshop on the North end of Lordship Lane. Have to big it up as the food they sell is incredible and they're really nice too. The Fresh Turkish loafs they sell are top class.. as is their range of other ingredients and produce.

http://londonist.com/2014/08/the-best-pubs-in-dulwich.php anybody seen the above? Looks like the GE has taken the lead.

Nice one. Looks class. will def pop in at some point for a tall frosty one.

Thanks everybody. Some class recommendations by the sound of it. red devil Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Glad to see Jocky is living up to the > stereotypical image of a Scotsman... :) thanks Red. topics I look forward to pondering on here in the near future; - the price of fags... too high? - best local payday loan provider - who's got the best gear?

I went into Bossman to check their selection out and I have to say - their beer range is legendary! My fave is without a doubt is Argentina's Quilmes. Can anybody recommend some other good ones to try?

.....also how did this thread move from nice pubs to somebody denying being a racist? Let's increase the peace please! thanks

Popped my Gowlett cherry the other night. Was a nice little place for a casual swally. The Disc Jockey man playing soul 45"s hadn't heard of The King - Curtis Mayfield though....which was a tad concerning.

Stayed in Peckham when I moved down 3 years ago for a month and a bit so went to Bar Story during my time there. Used to the Montague Arms too - which is closer to Queen's Road. Belter of a pub :)

Happy to find out about people's choices and reasons whatever they may be :)

.....GO!!! So far I've enjoyed a pint in the EDT, Actress & The Cherry tree. The Great Exhibition looks quite styled but haven't been in yet.

Good luck with the > move and anything we can help with, just ask! Nice one. Am frae Dalkeith! not checked out the Lion's Head yet but have been to some other styled pubs locally... the bottle shop (Boss Man) is amazing too.

Jeremy Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Where? We'll be situated roughly between Goose Green and the Actress (pub). Nice and Central but far enough away from the action that we'll get some peace and quiet when at home.
