Evening all,
In a few weeks a few work colleges and I are heading down to Kingston to help open a new store, was just wondering if anybody could tell me what the area is like, any decent pubs/clubs etc etc. Any help would be brilliant!

sandro's,you'll like kingston mate there's plenty of pubs,bars and places to eat.richmond isn't far away either if you want a night out of kingston .
Cheers mate. I go to Richmond a fair bit, easy to get to on the Overground. The reason I was in Kingston, because I had walked the section of the Thames Path from Richmond, via Teddington Lock down to Kingston. Nice stretch of the Thames.

I live next to Kingston and whilst I prefer Guildford or Woking for a night out, Kingston is also pretty good.
Few points to mention from the conversation above though.
Oceana is basically shutting down or is already shut because of a stabbing last year which led to it losing its licence. Even before that though, its not a place I'd really have recommended because the bouncers are complete <surfers> and I have seen a ton of fights their.
The club near the river is currently called McCluskey's (or it was until fairly recently), had a few fun nights there. Friends have told me its rough, but i've never had any trouble there.
There's a Hippodrome which I generally don't go too, seems okay, absolutely massive.
Best place I've found though is a smallish club called Bacchus, which is underground, has good music and generally seems like a pretty friendly place, there's also a very good O'Neils.
Hope this is of some help

If your applying for a shop in wood green mate save your self the hassle the money is not worth it.
I know shops that let people come in take stuff and let them walk back out because that is the agreement.
Honestly buddy I wouldn't wanna put you off of doing something you enjoy but wood green is a huge culture shock if you have never been.
