    Dominicos in Ballymote anyone ?

    Other than that either place in Cooloney but four lights is up there but only as a sit in, get cold way too fast.

    Me neither but I've at least been in the 4 lights :p

    Kinda legendary around Sligo, even if like me, you hate the food.

    Four lights doesnt do it for me,mind you their breakfasts are good.
    Borza's or robertos for a pizza. Gusto's in collooney is hard bet too,their owned by the borza's aswell,aswell as a new one in grange that I havent seen?

    Jaysus basquille that picure is a few days old with the smokers own still in it. Smokers own used to be on gratten street before it moved there i think. 4 lights also went to where hayleys on o connell street before it moved up to where mcdonalds was but now i am really showng the age.

    Smokers Own never moved, it just closed, that's Whyte's newsagents beside the four lights.

    Can I ask what's with the obsession with coleslaw on a burger in Sligo?! :confused: Fair enough if you like it & you ask for it, but as your bog-standard topping?! Don't get me wrong, it's nice an' all but...a quarter pounder should have mayo/ketchup, lettuce, tomato & onion IMHO...
    On the subject of favourites, Picnic Basket in Ballymote does a serious bag of chips for about 2.50. If you're hungry after this, there's something wrong with you! Lovely burgers too... :D
    Four lights is obviously a Sligo thing as well. Don't see the appeal myself of tepid chips & re-heated chicken on a night out. It's nothing wildly amazing.
    I like Robertos (housemates swear by the garlic cheese chips). Best is okay only. Haven't tried the new kebab place on Castle street yet, nor the food experience place. There's also a new one down from where Peter Mark's used to be.
    The Pepper Mill (newly open) in Tubbercurry is really nice if you're out that direction. :)
    I miss Scotty's & McDonaghs from Galway...:')

    I'm not into them myself but i've heard very good things about the new kebab house in Castle street. To quote a colleague of mine

    "I'd even eat one sober!" :pac:

    just had the chicken shawarma, sober, not the best one i've sampled, but would have it a again, not after a few beers though, could be quite messy, was quite a lot of chicken, salad, and sauce in that naan bread.

    will try the doner next time.

    ;)

    I miss the Dutch chippers...:(:(:(:(
    Lets start one
    Had a dutch chipshop for 12 years in apeldoorn


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    What's a dutch chipper?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,902 ✭✭✭pappyodaniel


    Was up in Sligo at the weekend and had my first Robertos experience. Hands down, the best doner kebab i have ever tried, it was bloody massive too and it broke my heart that i couldn't finish it. Nice friendly staff too.

    Not a huge fan of chipper fare either but I would almost drive back up from Limerick for a feed from Roberto's or Gusto in Collooney..... om nom nom nom.. to die for! :pac: :pac: :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    i'm actually tempted to drive from sligo to collooney just to sample robertos now

    :D


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 17,426 ✭✭✭✭Conor Bourke


    No, no, noooooo Roberto's is on High Street! If you do end up in Collooney though, go to Gusto. You will not be sorry.

    ah yes, i know robertos now, have passed it many times going to zam zams

    :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,262 ✭✭✭shanec1928


    their pizzas the best in town hands down


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    Gusto's in Collooney's pizzas are even better than Roberto's,if possible. The chicken fillet kebab in Roberto's was an honour to eat.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 82 ✭✭lippy88


    Ok after reading all the comments here about doner kebabs i must say that the best doner kebab in Sligo is definitly the Robertos in Ballysadare!! believe me iv tried all the chippers and this 1 definitly beats all the oders includin its sister chipper on high street!!Deliiiicious


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    so i tried robertos for the doner, its good, but its no zam zams. will go back though to try the pizza or the chicken kebab at some point.

    ;)
