    Hey Guys,

    Can anyone tell me what the Golden Fry is like?
    Worth a visit? Someone told me the opening hours are very strange and you have to wait ages.

    Any feedback would be helpful.

    Thank you.

    I find you cannot rely on the opening times. Sometimes i go during the posted opening times and its closed.

    GET THE CHICKEN MARYLAND!!!!!

    ^^^That deserves to be in bold and underlined in fairness

    Where exactly is this place? I've been hearing about it for years but the only time I ever went looking for it I must have driven past without even realising.

    It's right across the road from the church on Ballinlough road.
