Review of Mela Restaurant

16 Jul 07, 11:29

Service with a smile 4*

Mela is a nice, small Indian restaurant on Stroud Green road that I decided to visit with my parents and girlfriend one Saturday evening. We were expecting it to be busy, but got there just before the evening rush and had the restaurant to ourselves for a while. The waiter was very eager and helpful, at times a little too eager, and the service was speedy and efficient. The food was very nice and the prices were reasonable too, with a main for about £7 and a nice bottle of beer for about £4, all in all a very pleasant dining experience!

Review of Wing Wah Chinese Takeaway

13 Jul 07, 10:15

Great Local chinese 4*

Wing Wah is really near to where I live, and does good quick chinese food, they have a permanent set meal deal which consists of various dishes served with either egg fried rice or chow mein for £3.95, and you get a lot for that amount! There is obviously the usual fare, and everything is reasonably priced, and there are plenty of papers to read while you wait and the TV is always on to keep you entertained, very quick, cheap and reliable, I love it!

Review of The Faltering Fullback

13 Jul 07, 10:06

Full (back) of character! 5*

The fullback is a great little oddity, meant in the best possible way! From the ivy clad exterior to the hanging bicycles and various nik naks the adorn the the ceiling, you have a sense that this is going to be a slightly different drinking experience. Wander through the pub to the back area and there is plenty of picnic bench seating with a pool table and quiz machines for your entertainment, as well as a large screen for any rugby or football games that may be on. There is a small kitchen which serves relatively inexpensive Thai food and some pub grub for when you get peckish. With the added bonus of a smallish, but perfectly formed outdoor seating area, this pub really does seem to have it all, and whats more, the place has a bit of soul about it, which is sadly lacking from a lot of pubs these days, give it a try and you will definitely be back!

Review of Park Tavern

05 May 07, 19:14

Dingy 'local' pub 1*

When I walked past this pub and looked in I was willing to give it the benefit of the doubt. Sure it looked dark and empty, but I can quite like those kind of places. But when I walked in it was literally like a wild west saloon, the people that were in there looked round to the doorway and gave a disapproving look as if to say 'how dare you enter our pub!' The barmaid was at least slightly friendly towards us. The beer 'garden' that was advertised at the front was actually a very small back patio, which had to be accessed through the ladies toilets, nice! This place is not to be recommended.
