Living in Oria

Hi Neal,

We dont live in Oria full time unfortunatley but have a house here and are over as much as we can (including now!),. Not going to advise you what to do, but we used to enjoy a great evening sitting on the balcony there overlooking the Basilica with a few drinks and a pizza..but theres plenty of places to get pizza now ..Whatever you decide, Im sure we'll pop in during the summer and see what youre up too so will look forward to your updates and the very best of luck to you !!

Hello Paul - thanks for your reply. I am genuinely undecided on what to do with the property at the moment as I  also saw there were already  a few places to get Pizza in Oria. All I know at this stage is that I am very excited and feel that I want to create something that is inclusive and where people feel relaxed. I will definitely keep posting updates and look forward to welcoming you and your family when we are open. 🙏

Hi,

We are new to Oria ourselves, sice December.  Not sure what business you should set up but an local english would be useful for shopping.  I was thinking of starting a bridge club up and having somewhere to play would useful.  

Everyone are nice and friendly and helpful here.  We are near bar Frax just outside the village.  We are there most friday faternoons from 6pm if you'd like to join us.

Hi Paul 

Do you intent to renovate and open up as a restaurant, a tapas bar, or pizzeria? 

I wish you good luck, 

Hello Keith and Marie - thank you for your ideas. I will add them to the list and will keep you updated. I hope you are settling in to your new lives in Oria and thank you for the invite to Bar Frax. Hopefully, I will see you there in the near future. 🙏

Hello Mo47 - genuinely I have no firm idea as to what to do with the property. All ideas are welcome. I will be a newcomer to the area and if ok with people I will very much be relying on their input as to what they would like to see at the property in order for me to make an informed decision.

Regards 

Neil. 

Hi Neil, I live just round the corner (probably 100m as the crow flies) and take in guests short term rental and it would be great to have somewhere very close that they can go eat/drink or get a takeaway.  Reliable opening times/days is a must in my view.  Maybe once you are set up you could drop a menu into me or have one available if I pop along at some point.

Cheers,

Andy.

Hello Andy - thanks very much for replying. I absolutely agree with regard to reliability. If it’s ok with you I’ll pop by and introduce myself once I’m over and know what I’m doing. 

Look forward to meeting you. 🙏

No problem, nearer the time just PM me.  Look forward to meeting you.

Andy
