Coulgate Street restaurant is coming

An application to open the new Coulgate Street unit right next to Brockley Station as a bar and restaurant has been lodged.

The proposal is to extend trading hours to 11pm seven days a week and to allow it to operate as a restaurant and bar, rather than retail.

Like me, the glass-fronted unit has surprising depth. It would suit a decent-sized restaurant, offering something which the Coulgate Street mix is currently missing. With Browns, The Broca and this place spilling out on to the part-pedestrianised street, it is the closest thing we're ever going to get to a piazza.

Thank you to Paul for the tip off.
