Hasn’t been the Stanmer for years
Good point! Avoid the Fiveways pub, it hasn't changed since it was the Stanmer Park Tavern.

Yes, I used to live opposite the PV and they were my go to [emoji106]
Yep, sounds perfect for the area. He'd probably like the Park View too
Suggesting the PV is part of Fiveways is stretching it a bit !
The Agra is ok. Don’t walk down Balfour steps after midnight. Glen Geard still frequents the Stabber (pre lockdown)
It’s not a Village
Do the Balfour Road steps get foggy at night?
P1ss off Timmy
After a protracted process, we'll be moving into Fiveways next week, and I'd be grateful for recommendations from those with local knowledge. Here's what I do know, and my prejudices are:
-- Flour Pot: having lived 50 metres away from one, I'll now have to travel 150 metres or so, but enjoy their bourgeois bread. Not so keen on Ravens' more traditional style. It does seem that Tilt is popular though.
-- Quaff: decent independent, but nothing compared to Butlers, which is magisterial and was near my doorstep
-- Barfields: been there once, and seems highly rated. What of Choice Cuts?
What is Rustica like?
Fiveways Fruits?
Curry houses?
Other recommendations?
We are also moving next week.
Bet our process has been more protracted than yours...
18 months.

Have you bought his house? That would be funny

Hmmm.
We started in October 2019, so I guess you win...just.
