Chippers/Takeaways in Sligo

Love Happy Eater chips.

Don't get the fascination with the 4 lights to be honest. Everyone seems to love it after a night out. A prime example of alcohol numbing the tastebuds

Mail Coach Road I think? Travelling away from town, its on the right hand side just after the traffic lights (the ones that come AFTER the cathedral/Hawk's Well).

Or at least thats where it was last time I looked

Can't go wrong with a Curry Coleslaw and a Big 4

TequilaMockingBird · 11-01-2010 04:10PM

Curry Coleslaw sounds grim. Yet strangely interesting...

Borza are on Mail Coach Road, just up from the Mace garage, on the same side. They deliver for a couple of euro though.

Curry coleslaw cheese chips are where it is really at.

Raffaeles in Tubbercurry is freakin' awesome.

Don't eat a huge deal in chippers but definitely Borza #1.

and the old mollys, not a fan of the new one

Second that, very poor in comparision.

But I miss Ephesious, now a cafe type restaurant down the road from the nightclub in Teeling St., used to have great kebabs & huge portions.

I know I've eaten in that Ephesious place before but I have no idea where it is, it's not Cafe Society now is it?

That's the one alright..

I haven't lived in Sligo for about 3 years, but I did live in Crozon for a while and Borza was the nearest chipper. Never liked it and always felt like I needed a shower after eating from there. Can't believe there's so many here biggin' it up.

I personally always liked the big4s in 4lights and Fish and chips from Happy Eater and Greasy Mollys and the kebabs from Ephesus.

TequilaMockingBird · 08-03-2010 09:48PM

I've just eaten from the 4 Lights. It was grim. And I was overcharged.

Where did I say that? Of course I told them.

Then it was just a simple mistake by the person on the till, no need to tell the world is there

TequilaMockingBird · 08-03-2010 11:51PM

Should I keep it a secret?

It was a delivery - I had to ring to point it out. Pain in the a*se, but I did it. Order was wrong, and over-charged, not the best of service.

TequilaMockingBird · 08-03-2010 11:57PM

Oh, they do have rather snazzy white boxes for the deliveries though.

I thought I was getting a kidney it was so posh. :pac:

Basq · 09-03-2010 12:05AM

4 Lights.. aka the most unsubstantial take-away you'll ever get. You might as well eat the box.. there's probably more meat in that!

Get Surf N Turf.. now that's a burger!

I agree, I've just never seen the appeal to the 4 Lights. Chips are crap, and always cold. At least with Borza you think there might be a bit of potato in them.

I had chicken from 4 Lights tonight. I am NEVER eating chicken again. From anywhere.

Basq · 09-03-2010 12:13AM

Borza's fantastic.. but in saying that, their chicken is the worst thing on their menu. Way way too greasy!

It's gotta be the cod. It's so good in a really really bad way.

One thing I like about the 4 lights in the really low turnover of staff,Seems like the same people have been working there for years shows it's a well run business

magnumlady · 09-03-2010 01:23PM

Hubby raves about the 4lights full Irish breakfast.
