citizenED Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Yes, there is the Bread of Life cafe, and there is also the Plough Cafe up this end, but come on, neither are what everybody means when they say that its nice to have a cafe up this end of the lane.

SimonM Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 For the record you don't get preached at in any way whatsoever at the "Bread of Life" cafe. It is cheap and cheerful, spacious and accessible: sells coffee in cafetieres and excellent, basic hot meals. It does not open at weekends though IIRC Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6754-new-italian-deli-and-tea-room-by-dulwich-library/page/2/#findComment-217343 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bawdy-nan Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Bread of life cafe is great and brilliant value. I don't think that the new place will take away ther business. The opening hours of both mean they're missing a desperado coffee breakfast trick ...

It does not open at weekends though IIRCRare for ED, Bread of Life cafe also have cards on the tables asking parents with children to be responsible for their offspring's behaviour creating a conducive atmosphere for ALL. And this is in a place where they have high-chairs, toys and a breast-feeding cafe. Goes to show - it IS possible to be child friendly without having rug rats run riot messing up everyone else's day!

Have they chosen somewhere a little too out> of the way?Love the premise of this comment. A little too out the way from what, exactly? How is that location out the way? There's plenty of people using Dulwich Library and the park all the time, plus loads of people to and fro-ing from Barry Road to Dulwich Village. It's quite bustling and, as other people have said, there's hardly any competition.I live just around the corner and go quite often for a coffee before I head to work at the library. I hope they continue to do well. We deserve better shops on both sides of the road along this strip - I just wish they'd finish the units along where the car parts place used to be. Looks such a mess, on both the main road and around the corner at the site entrance at the top end of Landells - and it's taking sooo long.

citizenED Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I've been in this cafe twice now and think it is a little gem of a place. Pretty lovely in every aspect. Wish them all the very best.

Tipperary Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Was in there this morning for coffee on the way to work, asked to pay by card but as there was a min of ?5 and the bankmachine next door wasn't working the kind lady just told me to pay the next time I was in. Don't think you'd get that in Starbucks!Rock on the indie traders..

bignumber5 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 ciabatta, coffee, canolli. All top notch. Feeling remarkably like I should now be off to see tony-the-blade (marco's boy, works with paulie) or similar(although the yummy having a soy latte and 3 kids eating pom-bears didn't feature quite as prominently in Goodfellas) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6754-new-italian-deli-and-tea-room-by-dulwich-library/page/2/#findComment-226524 Share on other sites More sharing options...
