I heard last night from someone who had spoken to the lady who owns Grace and Favour that:-


1. Yes, they have bought it;

2. The pizzas are 99% certain to remain;

3. It is going to remain a proper pub; not gastro like The Palmerston but less spit and sawdust than the Mag's last incarnation.


Hurray for point 3!!

After a closer, daylight inspection, I stand by my description of "truffle". Albeit dark truffle...


;-)

Jammers - I think Sonners was referring to the incarnation before the last one (!!) when it was well dodgy. Only went in once when I accidentally locked myself out of the house. Had a very "interesting" night with two lesbian racists (one worked for the Immigration Service) before Mrs Banksy came to the rescue. Unfortunately before we made our escape she had a glass of wine from a bottle that had been opened (at least) the year before. She still shudders.

It really irritates me when people CHOOSE to live right next door to a pub thats been there for ages and then complain about the noise!!!! Didn't you see the BIG MAHOOSIVE pub there when you moved in!!!!????? ENDLESS!!!!


The Mag was a fantastic pub, and their quiz night on a sunday was the best in ED!!!! I really hope the bring it back when they re-open!!!

A plea to the new owner of the Mag - it was the only decent place to watch football other than the EDT in E Dulwich - please please please save the big screen and dont alienate us footie fans - whose missus' wont let us install sky sports channel


Will I be able to buy smelly soap and Osterich feathers at the bar too ?


How about a juke box and Youngs beer.......:)-D:)-D

There's a Wetherspoons just down the road in Forest Hill .....


And isn't there one in Peckham?

There are Wetherspoons and there are Wetherspoons. The thought of a 'Kentish Drovers' in ED doesn't fill me with much pleasure, but both 'The Imperial' and 'The George' in Exeter are extremely nice pubs and I would be happy to see something similar to them in ED.

    • My husband is currently a full-time carer for our two disabled children, and he’s keen to get back into paid work where he can fit it around our family needs. He’s immediately available and looking for local handyman work — from snagging and DIY jobs to gardening or general fixing-up. He’s capable, practical, and reliable, with plenty of hands-on experience restoring and maintaining, including with heritage/listed properties. If you have a to-do list you never quite get to, or need help with those annoying finishing touches, he’d be happy to help. Please drop him a message if you’d like to chat or check availability. 07968345884
    • Unfortunately Nissan was a disaster of a company when it created your car and still is, and most recently created another combined disaster alliance with Renault. Be aware, the trade value on your car is really low as no one wants to do the work & it's often only when it reaches near scrap value that someone (else) is willing to invest (their money) to try and fix. So if you're willing to front the money and fix your car that (you know) then that is most likely your best option (also understanding that it is outrageous that you should have to replace a CVT gearbox after 50K). If that isn't appealing consider a new Skoda Fabia 1.0 (Auto) on finance if you can't afford cash, it will last 20yrs.... (and avoid cars from the Stellantis group)
    • If you are referring to me, I was using my mobile. Just quoting the post I was replying to would have made no sense without showing my original post as well. I wouldn't have been able to do that on a "real PC" either, assuming I carried one around with me everywhere. It's nothing to do with what I'm using, it's the way the forum is set up to quote posts. I did insert a screenshot showing the keyboard by mistake.
    • You have to book for the Sunday roasts in advance. I have bad memories of once going for a circular  walk around Downe and then trying to eat. The Queens Head staff (and customers)  looked at us as if we were mad for attempting to get a meal without booking. The other pub in the village  reeked of bleach.  We had to  drive around in search of a meal, and ended up at some large pub whose name and location  I have thankfully forgotten. All I remember is the food, which was truly awful.
