Just for fun: With Bates Gun shop now sold, what would the forum like to see on the Market Square?

I would like to see an Italian restaurant – ‘bella pasta’ was ok, but very expensive for not much food on your plate.

It would be nice to have something a bit different I’m fed up with pub grub.
Bella Pasta was nothing like an Italian restaurant.

We do have Vivere.

So are you actually saying those polite young gentlemen who run the restaurant are born of Italy?



ROFL
No idea, never asked.

The style of the cooking is certainly more than passably Italian. Though of course to be authentically Italian it would have to actually be located in Italy. Making popping out for a quick pizza somewhat out of the question for a resident of Stafford.

Whichever way you want to cut it though, it's miles better than chain crap like Bella Pasta.

I guess born of, born in, grew up in, has less relevance than the actual food.

I'm fairly sure we have an Authentic Vietnamese restaurant, going on that theory.

And the girl at my chippie is Ghanaian

Therefore the Best English fish n chips must be Maltese or Gay or possibly both

Rather than me going through the last 10 pages of waffle, can someone sum up what's going in Bates?
I'd like a Fatface if no one else has mentioned that.

Yes, yes, I said Fatface JM, proact etc, no need to respond.

Depends on planning/license, but if you can build 7 rugby pitches on the marshes I can't imagine a pub in town having any issues! ;)

I shall amend it to clarify that position - It does fall outside of the 'Stafford Triangle' so we'll see.
