Bloke cornered market setting up a driving school in Poland and brought over 100odd drivers. Come Brexit 100 Prius were dumped at Brizzle Airport. Most of the local drivers didn't want to go back to it having got Amazon style steady income. It has improved from last year with few more about. There is a black cab rank right outside the Premier Central which should be alright during the day / evening. Put Tower Cabs App on your phone if can deal in 4 seaters. Plymouth Taxis 01752 606060 deal in black Cabs and have a few 8 seaters but in hour before or after the game you'll need to get booked early.

paulhanley Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Wish I was going. Like Plymouth a lot - lots of family connections due to Navy stuff. The city centre has got a bit jaded like most have these days but the Hoe and the Barbican are still great. There's a boozer on The Hoe called The Dolphin whose decor has barely been touched since the 1960s. A very, very old-fashioned boozer. Usually serves Dartmoor Jail Ale and Legend. It also serves Bass directly out the wood. Can also recommend Ivor Dewdney's pasties on Cornwall Street. Been serving pasties for decades and never a let-down.

Dolphin is on the Barbican but definitely worth a visit for a Jail Ale or two. On beer Salcombe and Otter other local small breweries worth a try. If only have St Ozzle look for Proper Job over Tribute Dewdney pasty will split opinion. Crap quality filling bur good for some strange reason. They have vans on approaches to ground but sell out early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never changed over decades - I'm a fan. Good job Ron Dewdney's aren't around to cause fractious oggy debates any more. I think they were just up in Devonport though.
