A new thread where people say where they were in ED tonight, what bars etc. And rate their experience.


I'll start: Tonight I was out with a mate and in:

The Gowlett from 8.30 - 10.30 then EDT briefly and from 11pm-1am in Franklins.


Gowlett 8/10 - great bar. Had some pizza and real ale. Only spoiled temporarily by the music. The seem to have a do it yourself dj option and some of the 80s revival music chosen was not great.

Franklins. 7/10 hard to rate as late in evening but barman served up until 12 and did a large measure of macallen. Tops.


Were we in the presence of any other forumites?

Felt like jumping off ?

I went to the Rosendale for the first time on Saturday night for a few drinks and dinner and absolutely loved it.

I had the steak and chips which I would score 9/10, best chips I've had in a long time. The service was great, really friendly staff and the atmosphere very relaxed for a Saturday night.

I'll definitely be going back there again.

Oh I appreciate that there's a lot of history behind the place Keef and I remember my dad taking me down there once or twice but since I've grown up and can afford to get legless on my own steam it's just never really appealed to me.


I like to think of myself as an honest realist when confessing my local. It is and probably always will be the Capitol in Forest hill, even though it is a bit pikey.

I agree Keef . Too many many try hards on LL. I spent a new years eve in the cpt a couple of years ago only because it was the only place that didnt need tickets to get in and it was brilliant, lively, comfortable and welcoming . Capitol can be a bit scuzzy but at least it has an unpretentious atmosphere .
The Capitol!!!! Let's face it it's not a pub is it? Jeez what a shithole. I walked in there once and didn't even make it as far as the bar (which is miles away) before I did an about turn and walked out never to return. It's cavernous and has a crappy atmosphere or no atmosphere. Bloody awful. A perfectly good former cinema ruined. Give me a proper pub like the CPT any day.

    • Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report. 
    • I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.
    • Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
