I had a savage bagel in the bagel factory part of O'Briens in John Hume this morning, sorted the head right out. Having said that though, Im going to try and bring my lunch in next week. Where do people go who bring in their own lunch, the common room? Is there a microwave to be accessed anywhere?

I would also like to know one or two nice places maybe in the village to go to the odd time, so I might start checking out a few places mentioned.

If you're going village has to be Twist. They're the only place in town who constantly change their menu. It never gets boring and the waitresses are all so pweety :P

Seeeeeeee?? annnnnnnnnncient.
I say this despite being 21 myself. You're not that old, I guess. But don't tell anyone I said that.

Brady's burger is good

Also Roost fry or whatever they call it.

That twisty place for fry is great.

And Rebel Pizza Meat Mountain.

And Mizzoni's meaty mizzoni.

I swear I eat healthy at home but if your going to eat trash, might as well go all out

What did you study bluewolf?

I don't think anyone has mentioned O'Neills? I always find that place great for lunch. Last time I check you can get a panini for €4.50. That's pretty darn good. The food is great for the price, I always eat there.

The Twist is great for breakfast which you should be able to get all day too.

Can't beat Cafe Twist on Fagan's Lane, just off Main Street. Lovely fry with tea or coffee for 6 euro! Delish.

AFAIK, it's cheaper than €4.50 for the sandwiches/paninis, etc.
I think they dropped their prices when the VAT reductions came in, so they're slightly less than that. Something like 4.35, I dunno.

What is Pugin Hall like? Hot food stops serving at 2pm though...

westdub15

Pugin's ok if it didn't close so early. Have to say the new canteens quite good and cheap. in the village Brady's do the best carvery and twist for breakfast.

BonBon is really nice. I don't know about for breakfast or lunch, but they give you a mother of a scone with jam and cream for 2.50, and all the tea comes in different little pretty teacups. Also, all the food looks extremely nice.
Chill do amazing crepes too!

Duddy

Chill's new menu looks awesome, great veggie salads.

I've had burgers in Maximus before, and they actually looked like the picture.
