Where abouts in Sth Ealing is this Nevins Cafe please? Do they do lovely bubble and squeak and tasty fried slices?

Gerry Tan ● 4672d

Its near popes lane beside carpol insurance and near the post office . I am not sure if they do bubble and squeek I will be having my breakfast there tomorrow and will find out then I am sure they do it but just not certain.

Peter Jones ● 4672d

Thanks Peter. Can't beat a good breakfast of fried egg, bacon, fried slice and a big dollop of bubble'n squeek and a mug of tea plus two slices of white bread toast with plenty of butter and marmalade. Except a nice big poached kipper with some hot toast and a cuppa. Life doesn't get better.

Peter, could I politely point out that we use our full names on this forum, as you will see if you scroll through a few threads? If you're not prepared to reveal your identity, then people will assume that you are the owner of the café, trying to use the forum to get free publicity. Yes, people really are shameless enough to try that.

Susan My name is Peter Jones how do i do that i am by far the owner of the cafe and to be honest I think you are quite rude to jump down new members throats.

Peter Jones ● 4672d

This is blatant propaganda. Peter Jones does not own Nevin's it is owned by a woman by the name of Tarkan Duman aka Nevin who has fled the country back to Turkey in light of debts to utilities and former staff and business associates. It is most often visited by Turkish girls who cannot go to the police because they are illegal employees trying to get their past owed wages from a Turkish man of unknown identity who is running it as a cash-trading enterprise. The Immigration people have tried to have him deported in the past and he has gone bust in this country before leaving a string of unpaid debts from his previous restaurant venture. The offices upstairs of Nevins are being let out to at least three different households as rooms for cash in the hand even though they are not classified as residential accommodation. It opens on Sundays even though it does not have planning permission and at present has a planning notice imposed on its rear which is classified as not built to suitable standards (that is it is probably dangerous). It is operating under restaurant planning permission given to it on the basis that it would make modification to the rear which it has not done.Mr Tan, your wish to experience the black economy would be fulfilled in full with a visit to this establishment. Councillor Taylor, and Councillor Reen take note: here is a rogue landlord right under your noses!

I wasn't being rude. I was politely asking you to observe the rules of the forum, which can be read on the home page under Rules Of Conduct. I'm afraid I don't understand what 'how do i do that i am by far the owner of the cafe' means. If it's the café I'm thinking of, then I had breakfast there a couple of years ago and very mediocre it was too. It may, of course, have changed hands since then.

This place is not operating legally.It is the subject of a planning enforcement notice which means that if it has any insurance if anyone is injured in there they probably would not be covered by the insurance and would have no recourse to any compensation.The enforcement notice listing can be found on the Ealing Council Website: http://www.pam.ealing.gov.uk/portal/servlets/EnforcementSearchServlet?PKID=10393And the listed details are scant:Enforcement Notice detailsReference number Site Address 157 SOUTH EALING ROAD EALING W5 4QP LONDONNotice Issued date 25/10/2013Notice Served On date Notice Served On Surname Compliance by date 09/03/2014I started looking into this establishment when a large Shisha lounge was first built at the rear of the premises about two years ago and have brought a string of infractions to the attention of Ealing Council since then. In the past few months from my first floor flat window I have observed building rubble, old catering equipment, pieces of wood, several old doors and gates, and most recently a rather manky carpet brought out from the rear via the access alleyway and dumped on Popes Lane - all of which has been cleared away by Ealing Council, yet the stream does not seem to stop.

Mark leave it ok

Peter Jones ● 4672d

Who is Mark?I just found the Planning Enforcement details, they are:COM/2010/00715/001 157 SOUTH EALING ROAD EALING W5 4QP LONDONCouncillor Phil Taylor, this is one for you I think!

Amanda Smith ● 4672d

Amanda smith= mark

Peter Jones ● 4672d

I think that you should take note that if you do start a thread on this forum under a false name to plug your own business that is operating illegally and you do have debts all over Ealing that you are unwilling to honour, and you are illegally letting office space as residential accommodation and you are dumping commercial waste then someone might notice and publish the truth here.

Amanda Smith ● 4672d

????Remember, the truth will ALWAYS out.

Amanda Smith ● 4672d

What is a "mark"? Is it some kind of derogatory Turkish term?

Amanda Smith ● 4672d

The relevant planning permissions and refused planning permissions can be found in the following two documents in Ealing Council's planning database. These document the hours that the establishment should operate over, the building changes required to operate as a cafe/restaurant (not fulfilled even today), the rejection of the Shisha Lounge construction at the rear, and the rejection of the conversion of the offices that form the upstairs of the Cafe Nevin to residential accommodation. They are:PP/2011/4759 09/11/2011 157 SOUTH EALING ROAD EALING W5 4QP LONDON Change of use of first floor office (ancillary to A1 Use) to self contained, 3 bedroom residential flat (Use Class C3)  Refusedhttp://www.pam.ealing.gov.uk/portal/servlets/ApplicationSearchServlet?PKID=138875PP/2011/2894 19/07/2011 157 SOUTH EALING ROAD EALING W5 4QP LONDON Change of use from Retail (A1 Use Class) to Restaurants and Cafes (A3 Use Class) and replacement of existing store with part single storey rear extension.

Amanda Smith ● 4672d

A small correction. When I mentioned opening on Sundays and not having planning permission I meant that it does not planning permission to open on Sundays, not that it does not have any planning permission of any sort whatsoever.

Amanda Smith ● 4672d

Amanda -- you've got the bit between your teeth on this one.For that all I can say is fair play!!!I wish I'd been able to rope you into my protest against The Assyrian Temple Road over-development!!Dont tar all the businesses down SER with the same brush though... there's a couple who play by the rules and still strive for good service

Colin Goodman ● 4672d

look at the end of the day all i want to do is go in and have a good breakfast another nice breckie today and yes they do see to have bubble and squeek

Peter Jones ● 4671d

I am not trying to promote anyone, however, about the only eaterie on the South Ealing Road that is playing by the rules and does not serve meat that has been allowed to bleed to death without pain control (ie Halal) is the longest established eaterie there is Paninis. It is further up on the opposite side of the road next to the MAPF (Polish) Charity shop. Pretty much everyone else is either Halal or in breach of Health and Safety or planning or employment laws.

Amanda Smith ● 4671d

Your wish is my command. I have been watching the Assyrian House saga for several years. The first thing to note is whether what they are trying to do is legal. They are trying to put in an entrance onto Little Ealing Ealing Lane through a private alleyway (Between some residential properties and the newly-built tanning salon). There has never been an entrance there, there is a hundred year old brick wall there that does not belong to them (or at the very least is covered by the party wall act) which they would have to break through. The alleyway does not belong to them and they have no rights of access through this. A start would be to examine this.

Amanda Smith ● 4671d

I agree with you Paninis is nice to also Leons is nice it depends what your wanting to eat Nevins is just my favorite by far. thats all

Peter Jones ● 4671d

Simon Wycombe ● 4671d
