I canâ¬"t believe it! Its gone for good! How DARE the landlord case the demise of such a wonderful restaurant! Sabras was absolutely fantastic and one of my favourite Indian restaurants. They were masters of vegetarian cuisine and a friend of mine will literally consider suicide as a result of their closure! I always found the husband and wife team to be a unique experience, I just hope (and pray) they set up somewhere close by and let us all know of their new venue! The food here was such good value for money â¬ if the owners read this, please please tell us if you reopen somewhere else!I canâ¬"t believe it! Its gone for good!

Probably one of the best sushi restaurants in town. You'd expect it to be somewhere more central as it's very unassuming and an unlikely find unless you know it's there. It's very popular though especially with Japanese people which is always a good sign of authentic Japanese food. Staff don't always speak perfect English so you might need to be patient. But they are generally polite and the food â¬ which ranges from plainer sashimi dishes to ones in sauces and fried â¬ is amazing. It's more pricey than chains like Yo! Sushi and you order from a menu rather than seeing your food first which makes it a bit more formal. There's a lovely seating area for groups of about five to ten people near the back where you take off your shoes and can all sit round a table together. Saki is a must.

This a good place to have the craic and meet people. There is a great atmosphere here, like a traditional friendly Irish pub. This pub is part of the Angies chain and is similar to the others in that it has a small dark interior and is quite cosy. They do a good selection of beers and other drinks. There is a juke box playing songs in the corner, but the atmospher is geared towards socialising. The staff are friendly and althought the pub is very busy they work hard and manage to serve quickly and with a pleasant smile and bit of chatter as they do it. There is not much in the way of food though and really it is more for a drink than a food pub.This a good place to have the craic and meet people.

This pub has a good atmoshere. It has lvely Irish music playing in the background and great buzz about the place. There are friendly bar staff and the service is good and efficent. There is a good selection of beer and food available.The pub is well maintained and clean. it is quite a large pub, with lots of differnt seating areas available, i.e for larger and samller groups. The decor is that of a traditional Irish pub with a lot of wood and pnaelling and dim lighting. It does get very busy and their seems to be a lot of people meeting up for friedns with a drink here.This pub has a good atmoshere.

This place is very clean and does a great kebab n chips after a night out. The staff are efficent and quickly cook your food in front of your eyes, so you can check out that they wash their hands and have clean premises. The Kebabs are good and not too greasy (if ever a kebab can be). Mainly a take away, but this has a small seating area at the side. The place is bright and well lit and seems to be very busy, but stff deal with orders very quickly and are friednly and cheerful. People stand around waitinfg for their orders to be cooked, so it is a nice relaxed, good natured atmosphere. I also like their salads, which appear to be very fresh.This place is very clean and does a great kebab n chips after a night out.

this is our local. we have only been there once on a journey back home from matalan... it was very quiet, not many drinkers in there for a saturday lunchtime. we had burgers which were absolutely fantastic!! filled the plate and our guts!! such a bargain, got an ultimate burger meal for about 5 quid! we loved that they sell koppaberg fruits cider.... it is so difficult finding a pub other than the wetherspoons that sell these so we are well impressed! overall, it would do for a quiet friday night or weekend lunch meal!this is our local. we have only been there once on a journey back home from matalan... it was very quiet, not many drinkers in there for a saturday lunchtime. we had burgers which were absolutely fantastic!! filled the plate and our guts!! such a bargain, got an ultimate burger meal for about 5 quid! we loved that they sell koppaberg fruits cider.... it is so difficult finding a pub other than the wetherspoons that sell these so we are well impressed! overall, it would do for a quiet friday night or weekend lunch meal!

Eating raw chicken can kill you. We survived to tell the story.

Hi folks, just want to advise caution here...

My wife and I would love to say all is well at Little Star and no cross contamination occurred when we were served raw chicken last month; we would love to recommend this place - we had been faithful clients and had been there on many, many occasions. However the owner didn't even respond to the letter we sent out to complain about the way we've been treated. Shocking.

We were even made to pay for our meal! No apology, no sense of urgency! "I don't want to f***ing die" would have said chef Ramsay!!

We now know why they call it "The Chicken"...

Seriously, if food poisoning was not a serious issue I would have just forgotten about it. But we are not talking about dirty crockery or lousy ambiance (none of which can be found there - Little Star was one of our favourites for the longest time - we've even taken friends there with us!!)

Cheers.Eating raw chicken can kill you. We survived to tell the story.
