Where do Watford locals go?

Cassiobury Park

Cassiobury Park

An enjoyable day out to the park - keeps the kids entertained with paddling pools, enjoy a walk, or use the sports facilities.

Red Onion

Red Onion

A great little café in Ruislip with really nice staff, freshly made hot and cold sandwiches and salads too!

The Old Etonian

The Old Etonian

This hotel and restaurant has a surprisingly extensive wine list, delicious Sunday lunches and outdoor seating with a nice view for when the weather is good. Great for large groups - book in advance to avoid disappointment, as it gets busy on the weekends. I always say hello to the staff when I walk by to make sure they still have garlic prawns on the menu!

Fitz Gym

Fitz Gym

Open from 06:30am to 22:00 during the week, this gym is perfect for those who spend their working day in and around Harrow. Amongst its many facilities is a pool, sauna, steam room, spin class section and a wide range of classes, such as dancing and boxing.

Vintage Bar

Vintage Bar

An ideal drinking hole for a quick after work cocktail or for a livelier evening with the DJ on a Friday or Saturday night. The raspberry mojito is the best!

Ye Olde Green Manne

Ye Olde Green Manne

Great spot for a sunny lunch date or a nice cosy dinner by the open fire in winter...delish!

The old Swan pub has been converted into this lovely Café Rouge - a great setting for some lovely food!

A pizza joint in Harrow - handmade pizza ready in 60 seconds from the wood fired oven.

Why not explore the nearby areas of Northwood, Hatch End, Radlett, Harrow Weald, Borehamwood, Pinner, Stanmore, Bushey and Edgware

"The black ties worn by pupils at Harrow School were implemented at the time of Queen Victoria's death. After the initial mourning period, they were never instructed to revert back to their original ties, meaning that they are still black to this day."

The peace and quiet you experience in Pinner is a real retreat from busier parts of London....

Thomas Carroll

I love walking down the High Street and seeing all the school buildings, as it reminds me of the area's rich history.

Sophia Carrington

Although it is located on the outskirts of the capital, I love Ruislip because it offers both peace and quiet and underground links into central London.
