Saint Garrett Posted 9 November, 2012 Share Posted 9 November, 2012 One of my close uni mates (bird) has just moved to Southampton, having lived in Sheffield for the last 5 years - originally from near Cannock. I'm going to meet up with her tomorrow evening after the game and was gunna go for some food and a few drinks somewhere. Where do people advise me to take her seeing as though she knows nothing about Southampton really. Ideally somewhere where you can sit and chill but also has some kind of atmosphere to it. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 9 November, 2012 Share Posted 9 November, 2012 Trago Lounge and Cenos in Portswood are good for that. Other wise Oxford Street or Bedford Place are your best bet. Otherwise dispence with the foreplay go back to hers get down to why you really are here to see her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokyo-Saint Posted 9 November, 2012 Share Posted 9 November, 2012 You need to go to Centros back in the 90's, that was perfect for that kind of thing. Sorry no idea now, these days it is all shots for a quid and getting felt up behind Weatherspoons - broken Britain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Boy Saint Posted 9 November, 2012 Share Posted 9 November, 2012 http://www.theoxfordbrasserie.co.uk/ If you fancy grown up eating and chatting, recommend booking for a Saturday evening, plenty of places to move onto afterwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperMikey Posted 9 November, 2012 Share Posted 9 November, 2012 Trago Lounge is good, but f*cking expensive. I would say Chambers as well. Nice place, not very expensive and usually pretty quiet so good for a chat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Garrett Posted 11 November, 2012 Author Share Posted 11 November, 2012 Didn't happen in the end. Meeting her on Thursday in Winchester. Certainly not 'smashable' and well into the friend zone (unfortunately!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
