Or at least it was when I last ventured in which was back end of last year It's a very good boozer. They go and mix their own jack daniels barrel every year then sell it. Always well kept ale as well. I used to play at the big concert hall across the road and they always had 8 pints of tetleys on the bar for the brass section at the interval 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Crawley Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I've not cooked a meal since this eat out business. Went away for afew days with the kids, mafe one meal. Five of us paying 30 quid to eat out with drinks, im well getting my monies worth. Monday night, got a lovely place booked before i head back to work after 6 months. I believe sone pkaces are still going to keep it running, which would be great. Lovely to see high streets busy on a week night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to play at the big concert hall across the road and they always had 8 pints of tetleys on the bar for the brass section at the interval 🤣 That very possibly answers a question for me. Few years back I had my 50th birthday party in Rain Bar. Quite a few of us met up early in the Britons and there was some Jack D being bought and passed round that was nectar. They’ve got all those bottles lined up behind the bar (stuff I’ve never heard of) and I assumed it was some of that. Maybe not now you’ve said that. I wasn’t buying obvs so never thought to ask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Crawley Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Always book for the week ahead - in fact, we booked the full month around where we where and the places wanted to eat. Last one tomorrow - great Greek place been wanting to try for ages and final treat before first day at work on the 1st Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter MickyD Posted August 30, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted August 30, 2020 Must admit, my restaurant of choice, The Toby Inn. above Edgworth does a chicken liver pate with a 10” pizza base garlic bread for about £6 (£3 in the current deal) and I reckon I could go and have just that as a meal.

Leyther_Matt Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 We’re going to the Portuguese restaurant in Leigh tomorrow (not Nando’s). Had to pre-order our food online which I thought was a good idea in terms of limiting wastage and preventing no-shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not in Crawley Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 We had one day last week and ate out lunch and dinner. Was a bit much to be fair, kids hardly touched the evening meal and even I had a Poke Bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Crawley Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Its own of the few southern inflections I've gone with, mainly because you sound like a yokel who insists on saying things like yed and fair klempt just to be more northern, if you ask someone if they are going out for tea.

Duck Egg Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Went to the Whites hotel this afternoon for the last day of the discount scheme. The food was great and an added bonus when Evatt and several players came in too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tshape Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Another massive Rudy's fan here too. Lost count of the number of times I've been to em. Consistently tasty as fuck pizza. Tried Noi Quattro during the offer, that was really good n'all. Spoilt for choice for pizza now in Manchester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
