An unexpected offer to have the kids tonight from the outlaws means me and the missus have a chance to go out for a spot of dinner.

Where do the good people of The Bunker recommend we go?? Preferably a pub

Don't know how far you want to go but Grosvenor Casino in Stockton is excellent for food - offers two for one with a Tastecard during the week too. Rib eye steak (rare)...outstanding!

I just had a lovely Fish Finger Sandwich in the Kent Village of West Malling.

Great old pub as well. Quaint little rooms arranged seemingly at random.

Limited train service though.

If you don't mind a drive and a ride on a ferry we once had some beautiful swordfish at The Spyglass at Ventnor on the Isle of Wight.

The dry roasted nuts in The Woodcutter used to be a good feed.

Thanks everyone all great suggestions.

In the end the boss announced she wished to go to Portofino's so ended up there and I can report back that it was good

I went to that Turkish restaurant on the marina.

Was utterly disappointed.

Service was first class. Food was fantastic. Price was reasonable.

But I came away pissed off that it seems some of you fuckers do know what your talking about.
