Living down in Sussex, our day trips are usually to London or Brighton, love going to both. We also do a lot of castles and stately homes, that's the wife's thing, anything that looks like Downton Abbey and we are there.
It`s certainly one of the most expensive (I presume you mean the Magpie) It`s a bit like Betty`s in York - an "in" place to go - nearly always a queue outside for a meal which is nothing special. There`s a better chippie on the corner by the pier and it`s about half the price! Also, is there any chance you lot can stop bigging up our beautiful country, otherwise we`ll get loads of ex package holidayers clogging the place up!
I live a 15 min walk from Betty's in York City Centre, there's nothing around the corner that touches that place mate. My treat every week to my bed bound is a Betty's Strawberry tart and yes, I do walk up for it..
Aye, I think you are right. Best fish & chips I ever had was the Queen's Cafe in Seaburn which will be no doubt be stowed off all weekend what with the airshow being on.
The guy next door to me drives up there from York, books an overnight for him and his disabled wife just for the Seaburn supper as he calls it..
Its in Kent. I think it may be the only castle left in the country with a complete moat. There was a NATO summit there a few years ago.
The guy that owns it has a great set up. Not that big inside but he has two hatches outside, one selling hot food & one selling ice cream. If it's fine on Saturday he'll make a ****ing killing.
