    I'm heading to Skibbereen for a number of nights and as I don't plan on cooking every night what is there takeaway-ish

    I can find 3 in 1 and a Chinese down the road.

    Anything else?

    Busy Bee. Hi Style and 3 in 1 for trad takeaway
    3 in 1 also do indian and kebabs I think
    There are a couple of chinese, don't know the names (although the one with the cannabis farm upstairs is shut :rolleyes:). There used to be an indian on the tragumna road but I'm not sure if it's still open

    For eating in, The Paragon does good all purpose pub dinners, The Church is quite good but a little boring, Les Voyages is excellent.

    Hi Style is closed, theres a Turkish place there now and i havent heard great things.

    The Oak Fire Pizzeria is behind main street near the car park. Proper over cooked pizza, good price too.
    Also in main street is "Longs Chipper". Its like a non-moving chip-van. Does a great chicken burger with black pudding.
    West Cork Hotel does great meal deals like Dinner and Pint €10 nights.
    Paragon does grand bar food, reasonable, getting food after 8 on a weekend could be tough as it gets busy.

    More upmarket restaurants are Le Voyage (main street) and The Riverside (North Street). Food is far from Takeaway-ish so might not be what you are looking for.

    Oh yeah the Busy Bee on Ilen street is the main chipper, often would see the Garda car or a tractor parked outside collecting "the dinner". Still has old arcade games from the 90's down the back also, don't like their ketchup though.

    I've been and gone to Skibb.

    Didn't eat in the Pizzeria. Thought it was overpriced to be honest.

    Did eat in Longs, thought it was pretty odd. Chefs hat and saying next when I walked up even though the place had nobody else there. Fair play though they made the taco sauce/mince to order which is good. Shame it was €5. Chips were nice I thought. Missus said they were greasy.

    Also got ONE bag of chips in Busy Bee(nothing else other than that) and they were cheap and frozen(not obviously when eating them :D )
