That is not at all true.. True Tea (Cay) is drunk by locals ..


Turkish Coffee T?rk kahvesi is widely drunk across Turkey and is a right ceremonial thing too.

And usually very sweet and the grinds are allowed to settle at the bottom of the cup

A Turkish coffee in parts of Cyprus doesn't go down too well either.

it isn't turkish coffee they are selling there, it's just an automated coffee machine selling latte, americano etc. we tried it and it wasn't that great to be honest even by machine standards it was very weak.


on the plus side this is the first time i've been in this shop in a long time, i really liked the previous owners and they always had good quality and interesting bits in there, but the new people seem to have ramped it all up a notch, theres a great selection of pastry/turkish bread type things in there and a lot of nice fruit and veg.

When it was Andreas's it was a Greek shop and was owned by relatives of a guy I used to work with in Telecoms.


It is a great place and is indeed a rare example of a LL business actually flogging decent stuff.

Very helpful and friendly and unpretentious.

P.S. Bet no one comments on Foxy being positive.

To be fair Foxy, there's a lot of places on LL flogging decent stuff food wise but it's mainly on the mid-upper scale price wise i think we are pretty lucky with range, if only we had a decent asian supermarket like the one in Peckham i'd be happy. Non-food wise i never shop in LL

Yes I agree, I hadn't been in there for ages but I went in recently and was really impressed by the good selection of stuff they had.

    • We first used Aaron's services for a badly damaged wall that had gone back to the brickwork due to water ingress from the bay window. We found Aaron initially through recommendation and were very fortunate to do so as we already had a couple of quotes from trades found online that were just ridiculous, clearly just a rip off, so not sure what we would of done without that recommendation. We have just had more work completed by him, two walls skimmed and more comprehensive work where the brickwork was exposed around the fireplace. The wall above the fireplace was the original plaster finish and in good condition but the original plan was to have the whole wall replastered but we couldnt get the tv off the wall bracket so asked Aaron if he could just plaster up to the tv, not ideal but not much choice. Aaron didnt have any issue with that atall and more than happy to do it. Amazingly the join between the new plaster and old plaster is invisible. Perfect feather edge finish.  Aaron is very pleasant natured, he turns up on time, he doesnt mess about and gets on with the job. He works in a very clean manner. He doesnt try and inflate the job to make it more expensive. We found him to be extremely competitively priced. Both jobs have been finished to an excellent standard. The finish is so smooth its like glass. We will certainly be using his services again in the future.     Aaron Manser 07773 410661
    • Yes, and now there's a leak further down Barry Road. Two men from Thames came and stood there looking at it and then went away. Over 24 hours later water still pouring out and no sign of any action to repair
    • Thank you, will check this out.
