Nice pizza there, we go fairly regular, but they seem to be slow to serve, I wonder is the take-away service a bigger earner for them, to the detriment of the "sit downs"?

The last sighting I had of Mr Idaho was when him and his possie including Eoin Kennedy were on Twitter trying to get the artist on Patrick Street kicked off the street the the filthy tactics like "I wonder what paye he's paying" I called him out on it and he blocked me. Good riddance. Anyway myself and the wife have a hospital appointment in the city today so can anyone recommend anywhere to grab some lunch, I'm looking for somewhere that we haven't tried and nothing high brow maybe like a wings or nacho starter, burger, fajita or pasta main. I was thinking Gallagher's or spitjack?
