Review of Flower Shop

29 May 08, 19:35

Smelly 4*

Im allergic to flowers so i call them before hand and choose a colour and they do the rest, so im not in there long picking it up. they do ones in boxes and bags with the water in the bottom so they are ready to display without a vase.

Review of One Stop Shop

29 May 08, 19:29

One Stop 4*

This is my sort of shop, everything you need in one little shop, fags, soaps, papers, milk and all that stuff, very handy if this is your local. They do have some ok sandwiches too if you pop in early before work.

Review of Three Locks Golf Club Shop

29 May 08, 19:28

Top Greens 4*

The Three Locks Golf Club is one of the best here in Milton Keynes, its a classic course and quite hilly so i would recommend a buggy if i was you, as the bag gets very heavy going up hill.

Review of The Fragrance Shop

29 May 08, 19:19

Perfume 4*

Perfume for the missus in here without any fuss, i dont know what to get so i just ask the girls and they pick the one thats popular at that time. Its cheaper and easier and less hassle than the big boots or department stores.

Review of Wheels Shop Mobility

29 May 08, 19:18

No other shop like it in Mk 4*

The wheels shop is ran by a really nice guy who will really help you if this is the sort of thing you need. I dont think there is another shop like this in Milton Keynes. They vary in price of course.

Large Shop 4*

Theres loads of stuff in here, from flasks to socks to boots, everything you need, plus some really good water proof trousers that i use for fishing. Its not too expensive and the stuff is good quality.

Review of Neath Hill Fish & Chip Shop

29 May 08, 19:11

Neath Hill Chippy 4*

There are a few places where you can get a great portion of fish and chips and this is one of them. Right where the local centre is and real busy after work. Nice portions of fish in here.

Review of Proud Perch

29 May 08, 18:50

Black Horse 4*

This changed name and had a little re furb not long ago. Its pretty much the same as it was, but with more staff and chairs and decking area for outside. A good menu with Hunters Chicken and sunday roast being a favourite. Lots of free parking with the pub.

Bring the kiddies 4*

The Flying Fox is great if you are brining grandma and kiddies with you, something for everyone, they do kids portions and nice sized tables, they will reserve tables for you if you ring in advance. Good parking outside.

Review of Old Beams

29 May 08, 18:40

Beams 4*

If you dont live here in Shenley then its a difficult pub to find hidden in amongst the houses, but its a large pub and restaurant, with a nice garden outside. The food is well priced and really good. A very civilized place to come.

Review of Metro's Champagne Bar & Grill

29 May 08, 18:37

Metro's 4*

Metro's is next to the theatre and its a great place to take the missus before the panto. Its a posh place and nice looking inside. Theres more room upstairs if you are just after a drink with a small bar and a few sofas.

Review of All Bar One

29 May 08, 18:35

All Bar One 4*

We usually come here for a work thing and ive always had a top night out. Its not the sort of place i would normally come as its a bit of a fancy pub. They so good food and tapas style plates for a crowd to share.

Review of The Secklow Hundred

29 May 08, 18:33

wi fi 4*

My mate is constantly on is iphone in here as theres a code on the wall that you type in and you can use their wi fi. Great for sports in here and it gets really packed on key football nights. Pub people in here, not like All Bar One.

Review of Black Horse

29 May 08, 18:31

Another great Woburn Restaurant 4*

The Black Horse is yet another example of great places to eat in Woburn. You can just come for a drink but the food is really good so i would suggest booking a table. The lamb comes highly recommended.

Review of Opus

29 May 08, 18:29

Girls night out 4*

My missus loves this place, they do a long drinks menu with proper girlie drinks on offer. Its right in the theatre district and is better than Budah Blue.

Review of Pink Punters

29 May 08, 18:26

Gay 4*

This is a gay joint but relaxed about it being only gay, and some of the best nights out have been in here. They stay open til about 5am and theres never any trouble, its camp and fun, but you can still get a decent beer.

Review of Revolution Bar

29 May 08, 18:24

Revs 4*

Revs is on a couple of floors and you will be pumped with music on all of them. You have to pay to get in, but its cheaper than oceana and the bars are big and square with decent staff.

Review of Lloyds No. 1 Bar

29 May 08, 18:22

Busy 4*

Lloyds bar is a great bar with bouncers on a saturday night to ensure the no trainers rule, which they are very strict on. Its a popular bar in the theatre district and stays open late mid week too.

Review of Oceana

29 May 08, 18:22

Oceana 4*

If you like your 80's music then you will certainly find that here and different rooms for different folk are available, so if you dont wanna dance to loud music head for one of the quieter bars on the first floor. Great to watch the ladies.

Review of Carrington Arms

29 May 08, 18:20

Best meat 4*

Ive had some of the best steaks in here, its great to be able to choose your own meat in here with kangeroo and crocodile making an appearance on the menu. Great tasting food with laid back pub interior and plenty of parking, not your pub food prices though.

Review of Barge Inn

29 May 08, 18:19

Barge Inn 4*

This is a really nice local pub that attracts outsiders because of its garden and relaxed feel. They do really nice BBqs in the summer and theres plenty of tables, if you can get one sit in the conservatory bit out the back. Nice reasonable meals price wise too.

Review of Ye Olde Swan

29 May 08, 18:17

What a pub should be 4*

I think this is what a pub should be, it still has some character with its old beams and traditional insides, and theres a great new outside eating area with good tables and chairs. Gets really busy when its sunny and is really popular.

Review of Sunglass Hut International

29 May 08, 18:11

Top Shades 4*

Sunglasses dont usually suit me and i look a dorris in most of them but ive found a pair in here that i really like. They have all the names and makes in here and they will let you try on every single one til you find a pair you like.

Review of Galloways Restaurant

29 May 08, 18:09

Galloways 4*

If you want a decent restaurant then head to Woburn, you can blow two hundred quid here easy on great food and wine and its worth every penny. The staff are lovely and the service is what you would expect from a professional restaurant like this.

Review of McDonald's Restaurants

29 May 08, 18:08

Mcdonalds 4*

Maccy Dees always gets my vote for the best fast food and burgers, theres something about mcdonalds that hits the spot. I go in here about four times a week.

Review of Loch Fyne Restaurants

29 May 08, 18:07

Prawns to die for 4*

My Dad lives in Turkey right by the sea and i thought he had the best fish food, but Loch Fyne give it a run for its money, its very fresh in here and well cooked. A top night out in an impressive looking restaurant, it aint cheap either.

Review of Jaipur Restaurant

29 May 08, 18:05

Incredible building 4*

The Jaipur is known more for its building really than it is for its curries. It took a long time to build and is proper impressive from the outside. Its maybe a little more expensive than high street curries, but a good night out.

Review of Golden Curry Restaurant

29 May 08, 18:01

Top Curry 4*

My dad introduced me to this curry house, its one of the original currie places in bletchley and its been going years. They have just done the place up so its got an up to date look in there. The service cant be faulted.

Review of Wagamama Restaurant

29 May 08, 17:56

Like what i had 4*

This is right in the shopping centre which is something i try and avoid if possible. The food is hot and spicy in here and i had some amazing dumplings during our last visit. Its a shame its in CMK as I get to be dragged round the shops before hand.

Review of Odells Restaurant & Wine Bar

29 May 08, 17:52

Thai 4*

I love thai food and this is now a thai restaurant on the high street of Newport. Its nicer to sit in than get a take away as the insides are really impressive with very new brown leather seating.

Review of Magic Wok Chinese Restaurant

29 May 08, 17:51

Best Take Away 4*

This has been recommended to me many times and i have to admit its a long way for me to come just for a takeaway, as im across town, but I have to agree its worth it. Probably the best chinese ive had.

Review of Paris House Restaurant

29 May 08, 17:48

Just the best 4*

This has been here many years and we know the owners. Its certainly a place to go if you appreciate food, the best steak and fish you will ever have. The service is spot on and there's some very tasty and expensive wine on hand. Because its an experience its comes with a price tag, but a must to impress your misses on anniversaries.

Review of Graham De Vere White

29 May 08, 16:28

Very Useful 4*

I didn't know until recently that Graham can actually do the electronic side of repairs as well as wood and so on. I thought my mixer had bitten the dust but with a new lead thanks Graham it's fine/

Review of Karls Shop

29 May 08, 15:23

Bargain Booze. 4*

I should say that i know Karl, so have an interest. The prices speak for themselves though. If you buy a mized case of 12 bottles of wine, he'll give you 20% off.

Review of Barber Shop

29 May 08, 15:21

Good place 4*

This place is a real find. Sharon who does my hair just the way I like it has not moved on in years. I hate having to follow stylists around and that's why I tip her good!
