This is what The Guardian says about Adam's Station Barbers in Peckham. And he's a lovely guy.

7. The Station Barbers

Peckham, London

Thought getting a nifty haircut in London without breaking the bank was a fool?s errand? Think again. No appointments and no frills, the Station Barbers is a walk-in establishment that sits just off Peckham Rye, and will furnish you with a perfectly well-done crew cut for just ?11 (stationbarberspeckham.com).

No doubt some of the young Guardian hacks live in Peckham, as its meant to be cool, hence the feature here.


Although i have never had my hair cut there, to suggest it is the 7th best barber shop in Britain is clearly ludicrous, and is surely a news article more at home in 'The Sun/Daily Mirror' than 'The Observer'.

Here's the link

I even found the authors twitter to see if he was a Peckhamite and I saw "Way back when I was an intern in 2014". I feel so old reading that.


Ashley are you here you trendy young thing :)

    • Tony Slattery - I used to love his improv on Whose Line Is It Anyway?, not to mention HIGNFY and Just A Minute. https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2025/jan/14/comedian-tony-slattery-dies-aged-65-after-heart-attack
    • I agree re rents, but I don't think you can compare Croydon and Bromley with East Dulwich. Different kettles of fish. They both had, or possibly still have, big what used to be called "shopping centres" rather than just high streets. I think the one in Croydon is being "regenerated" or whatever the word is, isn't it? Also shopping habits are changing. Where once you would go to a physical  shop to buy things, now many things are bought online, where apart from the convenience there is more choice, and you can easily compare prices and see reviews. Re Lidl in Dulwich, I knew a very well off person with a house on the Thames in London plus various other places including a flat in Venice (!), who shopped in Lidl because she said their parmesan was excellent 😀 My grandmother used to be very sniffy about M&S (in the days before it became known by its initials) 😀 I think it would be great to have a Lidl nearer than Camberwell or Peckham, but I can't see it happening, sadly. I'd also like to see a Waitrose, preferably replacing Sainsbury's, but that isn't going to happen either, also sadly.
    • An Aldi or Lidl at the Harvester site would be useful. But, there’s a Lidl close by in Peckham.
