Weeks later, neighbourhood Italian restaurant The Birdwood opened in Beckenham, and after giving them a chance to find their feet, I subjected the staff to the cruelest of tests: bringing four ravenous boys on a wet Saturday night.
When we booked, we had been warned that we would be at a high bar table and when I saw how packed the restaurant was when we arrived, I had to apologise as three boys had turned into four. Would that be a problem? It took some scrambling to find a spare chair but we were seated, no problem.

Hi Prebbleton! We are looking for small jars! If you happen to have any and are willing to give them to locals instead of the wheelie bin we would love to take them! If you would be happy to part with them you could drop them at the gate of 208 Blakes Road. Thank you in advance lovely neighbours!
