have to agree el paso is the business stick to a simple starter and fajitas and you cant go wrong,copious amounts of cocktails and ice cold lager compliment it very well. as previously mentioned it does have a fair sized function room up top with a bar as well,been to a few work does there and theres always been a good time had by all.

I used to eat at El Passo - one of my ex-girlfriends was Mexican and she also thought it was great too.


What stopped me from going back was the night they slapped a compulsory 10% service charge on the bill and got very difficult when we refused to pay it. (There were only three of us, so it wasn't like we were a party of 12). It totally spoilt going there - shame really as the fajitas are lovely.

I was put off going in for a long time after moving here, but actually it's pretty good! The decor is obviously naff but don't let that put you off. Food is good and reasonably priced. Though we tend to arrive lateish and they are always quite keen to get rid of you and get home, so not good for a late one!


Also a fan of the Turkish place towards Goose Green on LL - my better half lovingly refers to it as 'the steak place'. Bless.


Anyone know when the LL Thai refurb will be finished?

What a surprising number of Cleethorpians (?) there are in the area. Is this coincidence or were economic incentives offered to move people down in the 80's.


As regards El Passo - it's cheap and cheerful and the outside certainly makes a change to the sleek exteriors which are so common these days on LL.

After last week's 'experience' at the Harvester we're working our way up the food chain - last Friday was El Passo's turn. I went there expecting moderate tequila, cold beer, and serviceable food and that's exactly what I got. Good stuff and good value.


After reading the comments on here I was expecting it to be a but dead but Friday night it was fairly busy. Is it this thread proving all publicity is good publicity?

    • My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...
    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
