I can confirm that the oysters are LOVELY and the chap running the stall is very friendly. He seems to have a real passion for his produce and attempts to source different varieties whenever possible. I have tried three different types since it opened - fantastic!

The oyster chap is Martin, and he is indeed lovely; and also in need of increased sales since someone dented his vintage VW beetle last week, so do try to pay him a visit.


Next door to him is an organic herbs and spices stall, which I can also recommend, having had the most delicious in-house mulled wine in there last weekend.

It's a good idea. It's managed to get a fair bit of free and mainly positive publicity from the EDF. It's got a range of shops, but it is a bit harum-scarum in terms of decor and atmosphere. It does lack cohesion, but it's never going to be Borough Market. I'd like the convener/manager to have a think about the overall feel and look of the place. 7/10. Nero

I agree it's a good idea in principal. But (for most people) once you've been.. you been.


The mix of stuff in there isn't right and there isn't enough stock or turnover of stock to make you want to go back.


It needs a couple of surefire winners in there to get the rest going. A couple of ChiChiRaRas would do the trick. It's the sort of place that would really benefit from having a nice cafe inside too - something to get people through the door regularly - but obviously there are space considerations (and I wouldn't know about licence issues).

    • The refurb has made it brighter and smarter with greater emphasis on weights and other exercise. Seems that cardio is restricted to the quarter of the floor area as you enter. This seems fair enough as I rarely saw more than half the cardio equipment being used at any one time. I have been told that some cardio will be on the newly created gallery space overlooking the main gym floor. Free weights area looks bigger and there is a good range of resistance machines offering to exercise most muscle groups. There are some new types such as a squat machine, whereas core machines for abs and back seem to have disappeared. I have been told that some machines have yet to arrive. Overall, it’s a great improvement.  To say it’s still a dump is unfair and untrue.  The alternative would be to traipse over to Beckenham where David Lloyd will charge you the same for two months’s membership as you would pay for a year at DLC.
