Recent message from Gary Elson:
Thought you might like to know that a Planning Application has been posted today (9th January 2015) for changes to the kitchen and some other areas of Trevi’s by Ben Piette the owner of London House Restaurant in Old Woking, conversely it seems that a planning application has also been submitted for change of use to residential at the London House restaurant. All still speculation at present but would be excellent news for West Byfleet to have a quality Restaurant with a known Chef.

Thanks again to Stella for her hospitality
