Review of Lytton And Lily

28 May 08, 14:41

Vintage style 5*

It's gorgeous stuff, I just wish that I could afford it! This places is full of all those nick nacks that you know would make your home look just incredibly beautiful if you could only bear to part with all of your old tat.

Review of Barnstaple Town F C Social Club

28 May 08, 14:38

Own goal 2*

I think the problem that Barnstaple Football Club has is that this is a rugby town, so that's where the people and therefore the sponsors and the money end up. CAMRA have had a beer festival here a few times which improves it greatly!

Review of Ali's Alcove

28 May 08, 14:36

Kebabylon 4*

This is the sort of place you wouldn't look at twice in daylight, but put your beer goggles on et voila! I believe it is traditional to spill most of your kebab on the pavement outside.

Review of The Tavern

28 May 08, 14:33

Chavtastic 2*

It's everything a pub shouldn't be. There's a bit too much of the pack 'em in, pour it down their throats and shove 'em back out in the street going on in here for me.

Review of Samuel Daw & Co

28 May 08, 14:30

Suits you, sir 3*

I hate buying clothes with an absolute passion and the problem with this place is that you can't really browse, you need the staff to help you, and that's just what I don't want! I want to go in, get the gear and get out, not be measured and have to pretend I'm bothered what colour it is.

Review of Mughal Brasserie

28 May 08, 14:22

Curry tastic 3*

If there's a whole load of you going out for the night then this is probably the best curry house in Barnstaple for you. There's bags of room inside and the staff work hard to look after you.

Review of Theatre Royal Plymouth

28 May 08, 14:18

Show time 4*

You get some surprisingly big pre and post West End touring shows in the main auditorium here, but I have always had a bit more fondness for the smaller Drum. You may not get the same size names/shows, but there's a bit more variety and new stuff.

Review of Lundy Office

28 May 08, 14:13

No man is an island 5*

The booking office is a lot easier to find and use now that is has got a permanent home on the quay again. If you don't fancy the trip to Lundy they sometime do cruises in the Oldenberg that just go up and down the river: fab!

Review of Liverpool Cathedral

27 May 08, 10:13

Awesome 5*

If I had to pick between the two then on balance I'd have to say that this is my favourite of Liverpool's cathedrals. Yes it's got the more 'traditional' design, but every time I walk in there the sheer size of it and all the stonework just takes my breath away.

Review of Metropolitan Cathedral Of Christ The King Liverpool

27 May 08, 10:07

The concrete cathedral 4*

I'm not sure if Paddy's Wigwam is a term of affection for this building or not. Someone else I know says it looks like a nuclear bunker. It's a victim rather than a product of its times, but it makes you stop and stand and stare and wonder and that's why we build cathedrals.
