The London Borough of Bexley has been a key player in this narrative by investing in The Sidcup Storyteller development which comprises a Cinema, Café, and Residential apartments. It is also the home to the new Sidcup Library and represents more than just a cinematic experience. It symbolises a commitment to cultural and community enrichment. Its presence not only enhances the leisure options in Sidcup but has also acted as a magnet for further investment and development. The recent opening of Soulstreet London, a high-end restaurant & cocktail bar in the old
police station and news that Lounge Group will shortly be opening Serato Lounge, a new informal café bar at the old Iceland unit on the High Street - together with the imminent completion of several, high end mixed-use developments in the locality including an M&S Food store - demonstrates Sidcup’s growing attractiveness to investors both in the High Street and vibrant Station parades. Bexley Council’s investment, exemplified by the Storyteller Cinema, along with its award winning performing arts colleges, Rose Bruford and Bird Colleges, is transforming the town centre into a dynamic and culturally rich destination. As the community gathers to enjoy the magic of cinema and a burgeoning evening economy, the ripple effects of this investment are reshaping Sidcup's future, ensuring it remains a thriving and attractive place to live, work, and play.
