Have you eaten one? I've eate there several times and they've always been very average for the price.

The HH one is a grill as well isn't it? They've changed the layout a little from the terrible Milkwood.
But then that site is generally doomed - Milkwood was awful, Jazz on the Hill - didn't bother, The Poet - pfft, Escape Bar was fun but then got itself into trouble.

yes - I had a gelato there last week and treated my kids to one too. I found it a bit too sweet for my taste and I think the youngest did too as she didn't finish hers. The older girl loved hers though and they had lovely flavours - elderflower, passionfruit and there was a special that day that involved peanut butter.

I liked the Escape Bar. Nice and down to earth and you can get far better pizzas around the corner. But yes, it's a tough site. That said, isn't Off The Cuff doing alright now?

Always looks busy when I go by and they have live music 5 nights a week (DJs fri/sat)

Nice and down to earth if you were involved in illegal drugs trade (which is part of its demise) and music license infringements you mean?!
I really like 500 degrees* - but their flour doesn't agree with me for some reason - they're also a different style of pizza than Agile - but around the same price. The restaurant's a bit hot and claustrophobic though - some of their other branches are a bit comfier.
OTC - yes, the live music seems to be going ok - partly as lots of local people are involved in some way or another. Overpriced beer still etc. Can't say they really helped with their support at the new Fish & Wine place though, which is still Mary Celeste.
*I'm assuming you're not referring to Pizza Express.

Of course not. The appeal of that chain totally eludes me.

I meant their spelling! It's not even French or Italian for artichoke.

It's either a faux pas de Del Boy or a little known strain of franglais unique to the colline d'herne......I'm guessing the latter

Probably won't be a big queue now as no longer free!

Oh good. I didn't even notice that you had said it was free in your first post.

They got through it quick and the ice cream was great!
So pleased this place has re-opened - have you been and is it good?
Re. Cafe Prov the staff can be slow / forgetful but the place is lovely, the food is great, and everyone's friendly.
Recent addition to the forums here and hoping to be a permanent fixture. I'm a Herne Hill local who lives about 2 minutes away from Brockwell Park - I work as a freelancer in film & TV, currently looking for a canine companion in between jobs if anyone is in need of a FREE dog sitter / walker!

Thanks FOD - glad to be here.
The Parlour has been a joy to hang out in recently with this weather - everyone apparently has a dog when it turns summer.

Perhaps they borrow them too?
Whats so good about the Parlour then? never actually been there as I'm not sure I'm the target market - tbf I'm not the target market anywhere these days and rarely go anywhere that's not a pub.
