Review of The Eagle

10 Apr 08, 01:38

Yum 4*

This is a great pub about 5 minutes walk from Old Street station and on the edge of Hoxton. Tends to be a bit of a media crowd, but more normal than idiot people

Wide range of ciders and beers as well as normal drinks. Large outdoor space out back with heaters, people often also drink outside the front.

Food is nice. I like the big pie and the burger with maris piper chips.

Review of Subway

10 Apr 08, 01:36

YUCK 1*

This is the most disgusting and badly serviced Subway I've ever been to.

You know what the food is like, but imagine a franchise that hardly has any stock. They run out of lettuce, tomatos, cheese, everything; never mind the rare times they have all the breads.

The best time was when they ran out of change and expected me to leave them £10.

Awful. Go up the road to the Charing X Road branch instead.

Review of Benugo

10 Apr 08, 01:15

PIE 4*

Not a cheap option for lunch but a reliable one. This is quite a large benugo cafe with seating inside and out.

Select a sandwich which is premade or the servers can make it in front of you. I particularly recommend the pies - there's normally a veggie and meat option. Get it with lashings of gravy, mash and ketchup and be the envy of your workmates!

Review of Scotts Sandwich Bar

10 Apr 08, 01:14

Eat me 4*

I was immediately drawn to this place because it looks quite cool from the outside. Service is quick and pleasant but it's pretty expensive, I regard going here for lunch as a treat!

There's a wide range of sandwich, salad and jacket potato options and usually a few hot options like lasagne also.

One of the best sandwiches shops in Covent Garden.

Review of Faulkners

09 Apr 08, 18:47

Yum 4*

This is generally known as one of the best fish & chips in London. It's really good but very expensive so I'm not sure how much it deserves that tag.

Eating in is almost double the price to take away. Take away cod & chips equals about £8 each, but you seriously do not need a chip portion each unless you are the hungriest you have ever been because the portions are huge, enough to feed 2.

Service is quick & friendly.

Review of La Bodeguita

09 Apr 08, 18:44

Yum! 4*

This was my first introduction to Columbian food. You might find things that are similar to familiar items in mexican restaurants but there's loads of different choices. I liked the beef with mushroom sauce. The meat had a great texture and the sauce was creamy and really tasty. There are also lots of dessert options which is always a bonus.

La Bodeguita is very popular with locals, service is really quick and it's one of those places which is really buzzy. Be warned though, if it's your birthday and your friends tell the staff they WILL embarrass you with loud music & pointing!!

Review of Tesco Express

09 Apr 08, 18:38

Good 4*

This Tesco is one of the best Express ones I've ever been in. Probably because of it's location it's really large and stocks really upmarket food that you might not even see in a normal large tesco.

Lots of tills and helpful staff.

Located just by the green.

Review of Eds Easy Diner

09 Apr 08, 18:35

MEAT 4*

If you really want to pig out Ed's is great.

The best thing is their milkshakes, the oreo cookie one is to die for (and pretty similar to the TGI one if you've had that).

Choosing your burger and your type of fries separately can add up but generally quick service and tasty food makes it worth it.

Review of Schofields

09 Apr 08, 18:00

Used to be popular 2*

Used to be a really popular bar in the centre of Blackpool but now it's a deadzone. There are two floors and upstairs can be booked out for prviate parties.

The bar is very long and the music is chart based. Drinks are mainly stuff like WKD, VK & bottled beers.

Wouldn't go here unless necessary.
