Bluelagoon Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Tavern Snacks - now that is a proper salt and vinegar crisp - I've only ever seen them at The Blue Posts on Berwick Street.I do think it's sad - gentrification is a big and complex debate, and I'm definitely a latter day ED emigre drawn to some extent by nice shops and places to drink but I also like an area to be authentic and there is also definitely a case that despite all of these 'independent' cafes and provisions shops London's high streets in certain areas are all beginning to look the same.I only went in there once with a Irish friend, but otherwise I'd agree that the shutters always made it look closed.It is still a shame to loose a local business.

cle Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I'm not Irish, so I suppose I should shush. Shame that one can only comment on matters pertaining to a group/nation/issue if they belong to it.

Romnarz Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 The butcher at the plough is very good.Excellent beef n bacon n rabbit.

Earl Aelfheah Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I don't get why that butchers has never invested in a shop sign. Seems like a false economy.

mikeb Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 You can go in that butchers on a Saturday afternoon and it's like a morgue - he really doesn't seem to enjoy his job. Does anyone know what rents are like at that end of the Lane?

Alan Medic Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I suspect the shutters being left up was because the woman in the shop wasn't physically capable of taking them down. I think it was a case of either you knew of the shop or you didn't. If you did it wasn't offputting in the least.

Mustard Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Bacon lovers - Can confirm that streaky bacon at the near the Plough butcher is delicious. Bought some sausages also yesterday, but haven't tried them yet. He does long chipolata style ones as well as the ordinary size.
