probably not! It’s a pretty grotty pub but popular with the residents of the Crawford Estate. Recently they seem to have made an effort to clean it up a bit, put on some live music at the weekends and put some benches outside etc.. which is why i was surprised to read your post.

Oh; whoops! Wonder if the landlord knows?

interesting to hear about the plans for the bus garage as i live just off Warner Rd, hopefully they’ll tidy the area up a bit too. I hadn’t heard anything about planned new flats on Warner Rd — possibly cos the Rose and thistle is still very much current!

I think there may be some causal link between the number of competing off-licences in a small area and the availability of White Lightning to street drinkers at 8am…

I noticed that restaurant sign last week and forgot to mention it; let’s hope ‘exotic’ means ‘tasty’. I still think a decent Japanese is in order.

And yes, I’m happy about the regeneration too; but there are still more places closing than opening.

Bees autobits — off licence is not too bad…another chicken place would be disastrous…

By the way — there is another restaurant about to open near Pizza Napolitana on Camberwell Road. Temporary sign at the moment says ‘exotic restaurant to open‘… could be interesting…

Nice to see regeneration is happening and new places are moving into the places closing down though.
