Restaurant Idea - Rico (25th Jan 2015 - 16:12:37) I am thinking of opening an Italian family restaurant in Liphook Centre....would you come?

Re: Restaurant Idea - Jacqui (25th Jan 2015 - 17:01:01) Oh yes, it will be nice to go somewhere other than Chinese or Indian, when do you hope to have it up and running?

Re: Restaurant Idea - CB (25th Jan 2015 - 17:07:36) Absolutely- We\\\'ll come! Great idea!

Re: Restaurant Idea - Dewy (25th Jan 2015 - 17:24:31) Yes yes yes, si` si` si`, especially if a genuine family business! This village is missing such a venue for too long. Best of luck, buona fortuna!

Re: Restaurant Idea - Bella (25th Jan 2015 - 17:26:50) Yes most definitely we are a family of 5 who all love Italian food !

Re: Restaurant Idea - Martin (25th Jan 2015 - 17:32:41) I think your idea would be well supported by the people of Liphook. A family owned Italian sounds great and a change from the usual Italian commercial chain restaurants that we currently have a choice of.

Re: Restaurant Idea - Steve C (25th Jan 2015 - 17:43:05) If the food was tasty and the prices reasonable my family would definitely use it!

Re: Restaurant Idea - Italian food lover! (25th Jan 2015 - 17:48:55) Oh yes please!! Hurry!!

Re: Restaurant Idea - Nelly (25th Jan 2015 - 18:10:04) Just what the village needs, good luck definitely would be a customer

Re: Restaurant Idea - Rob (25th Jan 2015 - 18:29:58) Why not try something like taking over the food in the green dragon???

Re: Restaurant Idea - FJ (25th Jan 2015 - 18:30:32) If you serve good italian food at reasonable prices and not sell drinks at over the top prices our family would definitely use you.

Re: Restaurant Idea - IanS (25th Jan 2015 - 18:48:52) YES

Re: Restaurant Idea - Dave (25th Jan 2015 - 19:10:07) Yes please. ASAP.

Re: Restaurant Idea - Susie (25th Jan 2015 - 19:55:53) oh yes, my boys would love it. I'm bored of the hungry horse and so a reasonably priced family friendly eatery would be great. Looking forward to it.

Re: Restaurant Idea - SR (25th Jan 2015 - 21:37:41) Yes, we would defiantly visit - sounds fab :o)

Re: Restaurant Idea - PD (25th Jan 2015 - 21:39:00) Absolutely great idea I think you'd do great trade Lots of other food outlets but an Italian restaurant would fill a void

Re: Restaurant Idea - tony (25th Jan 2015 - 21:49:43) Good idea getting feedback. I get the impression you mean a good quality, reasonably priced (but not cheap) non chain proper old school Italian. I would love that, but not sure whether everyone else does, hopefully they do. On the other hand they may just want a Pizza Express or Ask Pizza (nothing wrong with that). Your call, we would definitely give it a try, I can't think of another locally. And whilst we're at it, if there are any high class Greek chefs out there too, can't think when I last found a great one of those either! Good luck.

Re: Restaurant Idea - carl (26th Jan 2015 - 00:16:46) Yes please to a italian restaurant in liphook with something with a good atmosphere to it too. When will it open??

Re: Restaurant Idea - ian (26th Jan 2015 - 06:28:55) yes yes magnifco we do need one would be a customer

Re: Restaurant Idea - Jackie (26th Jan 2015 - 07:44:38) If it is good value for for food and drink, then yes. Main course about £7-£8.00.

Re: Restaurant Idea - GD (26th Jan 2015 - 09:12:09) oh yes please

Re: Restaurant Idea - wendy (26th Jan 2015 - 10:07:59) yes please, the sooner the better

Re: Restaurant Idea - dawn (26th Jan 2015 - 10:18:29) I'm not sure if you really mean £7 for a main course? Fro a home-cooked start from scratch restaurant? I know a lot of chains buy in pre-cooked frozen stuff that just gets deep fried or microwaved, and for that type of thing perhas under a tenner is OK. But when the time and effort has gone into each dish - A starter perhaps but a main course for under £10 - no.

Re: Restaurant Idea - roo (26th Jan 2015 - 10:31:38) Did someone not try put an italian resturant in station road a few years ago but the locals opposed the alcohol licence

Re: Restaurant Idea - SW (26th Jan 2015 - 10:38:06) Great Idea

Re: Restaurant Idea - Andy (26th Jan 2015 - 10:39:02) Does liphook not have enough takeaways and resturants already surely the village cannot support another one

Re: Restaurant Idea - liz (26th Jan 2015 - 10:53:30) Excellent idea. I agree with Dawn regarding the pricing.

Re: Restaurant Idea - Russ (26th Jan 2015 - 12:20:26) Is this restaurant going to be in the Green Dragon/ If so do we really want to lose our last village pub?

Re: Restaurant Idea - woo (26th Jan 2015 - 12:46:45) So where abouts in Liphook would the Restaurant be?

Re: Restaurant Idea - Jan J (26th Jan 2015 - 14:43:32) Great, look forward to you opening soon.

Re: Restaurant Idea - Diane (26th Jan 2015 - 16:51:37) Yes please. Food cooked from scratch not bought in frozen.,reasonably priced food and wine. Six friends would definitly be customers

Re: Restaurant Idea - Nadine (26th Jan 2015 - 23:33:57) Yes, we would definitely be customers..but I disagree with the £7/8 comment…top ingredients please! Proper family owned, home cooked fayre. Oh and really nice ambience/decoration please.

Re: Restaurant Idea - Sarah (27th Jan 2015 - 10:46:38) I have always thought that a good, home made pizzeria would go down a storm here - using a pub like the green dragon would be a great idea too. Take a look at the Queens Head in Sheet for some ideas re pricing. You could also offer takeaway, would make such a nice change. Good luck!

Re: Restaurant Idea - Hilary (27th Jan 2015 - 13:26:09) Yes please!....and lovely coffee during the day if possible :)

Re: Restaurant Idea - Marion (27th Jan 2015 - 13:45:10) Yes most definitely! The sooner the better our family all adore good authentic Italian food!

Re: Restaurant Idea - jenny wiseman (27th Jan 2015 - 14:03:54) What a great idea to have an authentic Italian restaurant in Liphook. I agree with a previous reviewer too - a cup of Italian coffee in the daytime would go down very well indeed!

Re: Restaurant Idea - h (27th Jan 2015 - 23:46:43) there is a good Italian trattoria in Beacon Hill, it is family owned, and the food is good, and the main courses are around 10.00 or so, with steaks and fish obviously more expensive. The cooking is home cooking lots of garlic, hopefully it could be something like that, it does work out more than the royal anchor though!

Re: Restaurant Idea - liz (28th Jan 2015 - 09:16:39) h Sounds good. Quite happy to pay quite a bit more than at the Royal Anchor if appropriate!

Re: Restaurant Idea - Faye (28th Jan 2015 - 09:28:33) The one in beacon hill is great, something similar would be great.

Re: Restaurant Idea - Gerd (28th Jan 2015 - 22:13:19) Great idea. The village lacks a good, Italian restaurant. We would be more than happy to become regulars.

Re: Restaurant Idea - Claire (30th Jan 2015 - 18:25:30) Yes, fantastic idea, a local Italian restaurant would be very welcome. Also as a young family we'd be keen to visit at lunchtimes as much as evenings if you were open. Good luck, I hope you decide to go for it.

Re: Restaurant Idea - Richard (4th Feb 2015 - 17:07:51) An excellent idea, I have been saying a good Italian restaurant is just what Liphook needs for years

Re: Restaurant Idea - Col (4th Feb 2015 - 18:30:00) Absolutely would support this idea! Liphook is in such desperate need of a decent restaurant. We used to have bi bi annas, but that was more of a bistro. Would be great to have a proper Italian in Liphook. I've always thought if the old model shop in the square was done up, that would be a good site for a restaurant, only problem would be parking though I suppose.

Re: Restaurant Idea - Ian Smith (4th Feb 2015 - 19:13:24) The sooner the better please, really fancy an Italian this weekend

Re: Restaurant Idea - JJ (5th Feb 2015 - 14:37:11) If it's going to be pasta and pizza, no thanks. Wouldn't get me out of the house. Something like Loch Fyne restaurant, with fresh seafood.. or a Greek Restaurant with all the mediterranean flavours, now then you'd be talking.

Re: Restaurant Idea - RIL (5th Feb 2015 - 16:04:01) So Rico.......are we getting a new restaurant in Liphook?
