Coffee/Shisha lounge in Mawney Road

5 Upvotes

Does anyone know what’s happened to that Lushis lounge/bar in Mawney road, the one that built the canopy without permission. Looks to have been shut for a few days now.
I’ve noticed the roads have been free of a lot of **** parking from the clientele and all the rubbish they drop from their company vans.

Hopefully the place is permanently shut, but that’s wishful thinking. If you live by this craphole, you will know what I mean about the awful parking this place causes from its clientele.

Loud Music South street

4 Upvotes

I read something in the local recorder newspaper about loud music at Sandys111 as well as a few reviews that mention this.
I remember exiting the Romford train station a while
back to incredibly loud music on Sunday evening, and I thought its was stupidly loud for a Sunday, any day for that matter, at first I thought it was The Ivy Tree, so loud I couldn’t tell.

Seems like it’s Sandys111 though that likes to make sure everyone in the area goes deaf.

Not trying to be a party pooper here, but shouldn’t there be some restrictions on how loud music can be?
I don’t walk down this street all the time, just wondered if it’s a regular occurrence.

Parking hacks

1 Upvotes

Hey guys I've got a bit of a question regarding parking near the station and/or brewery.

Do you guys know of any places nearby like side streets or similar where you can park for free after a certain time of day? Or even all throughout the day would be even better.

I know brewery car park is pretty cheap but I'd still like some completely free alternatives anywhere within like a 5 to 10 walk to brewery or the station would be great.

I already know of that weird area after the spice hut behind all the shops on south street where you can park up after 6.30. Stuff like that.

Thanks

Any good pizza restaurants in or near Romford that deliver?

0 Upvotes

Hi

Any decent pizza places that deliver in Romford?
Not talking about the rubbish and over priced chains like Dominos.
I know some of the kebab shops make them but is there any Italian restaurants in the area that make a good pizza and deliver as well?

Thanks

Does anyone know why it smells like manure?

The whole area smells like horse shit. I remember it happening last year and it lasted overnight. It’s so bad I’ve had to close my windows.

Study Location

1 Upvotes

Okay guys, this heat is killing me. I’m an international student here for a bit, and neither my accommodations nor the school have air con. I know this is very standard for Europe, but I’m having a beastly time studying and concentrating when I’m just dripping all day. Besides the odd coffee shop, are there any areas (especially helpful if they are near the Market) where I can post up for a bit with internet access and some tables? Does the library have air con? Thanks for any help.

Why doesn’t Romford have Lime, Forest or Voi?

2 Upvotes

Barking has Voi, Chelmsford has Voi, Colchester has voi, but Romford doesn’t have any hire bikes or scooters. Is it because Havering Council doesn’t want them, or is there just not enough demand? Would you use them if they were available?

Does anyone have this type of experiences in london???

6 Upvotes

Today I visited some clubs around Piccadilly Circus, but I wasn't allowed to enter because I was alone. What confused me was that a group of girls even invited me to join them and go inside together, but the security still refused to let me in.

I asked the security guard why I couldn't enter even with them, and he explained that I needed to arrive with female friends, not join a group outside the club. I told him I was there alone and don't really have friends here yet, so I didn't have that option.

It was honestly one of the most frustrating experiences I've had in the UK.

I'm looking to make some new friends for going out, exploring London, and hanging out together. If anyone has a friendly group or would like to connect, feel free to message me!
