Zizzi opens 28 April 2008

I was walking this evening along Victoria Road and on the front door, it stated that there was a private party going on with a message saying it was opening Monday April 28. It will be interesting to see how it fares compared to the other Italian restaurants around the area.

Happy St Georges Day to my fellow English men and women. Hope you have a great time and celebrate just how great it is to live in England.

moving to Surbiton

18 years ago...

I've been reading with interest the posts on the good and bad things about Surbiton as my husband and I are currently looking at properties in the area.
We can't afford the river roads, and have been looking at houses around the Alpha Road estate. It would be great to get some views on that area - is it a friendly place to live? safe at night? can you walk to and from the station safely in the dark?
We're moving to have more space to start a family, so any views on where else in Surbiton might be affordable and young family friendly would be very welcome.
Many thanks,

How come there are so many 'average' pubs?

18 years ago...

As a newcomer to surbiton.com, I'm sure I'm reopening a perennial topic, but what amazes me, is the lack of good local pubs.

I live on Cleaveland Road and love that there are some great bars around, but no great pubs!
Rubicon does great cocktails, and the Gordon Bennett has got a good formula.

But when I fancy a nice after work pint, I'm left with not much choice - The Grove and the Victoria are the only places that seem to approach a good pub atmosphere (although the Lamb is fun, if a bit small and strange).

Anyone found a hidden gem that I've missed?
