The one on Darras Hall has a great wine selection, loads of footballer's wives/ girlfriends/ mothers/ servant types and a good range of chilled foods. Can't remember why I go. Often.

Anyone constantly nibbling away about seeing the world is usually in a back bedroom in their underpants in front of a screen boasting about it..just off West View Road.![]()
