    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 ;)

    Borza for it's cod and chips is probably my favourite of the current lot with the 4 lights after that.
    where about is Borza?

    im also a fan of the 4 lights..Curry Cheese Chip..lovely...:pac:

    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


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,392 ✭✭✭TequilaMockingBird


    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?

    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.

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

    and you didnt tell them you were 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


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,392 ✭✭✭TequilaMockingBird


    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.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,392 ✭✭✭TequilaMockingBird


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

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


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,791 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    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.

    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.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,206 ✭✭✭gustavo


    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


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,657 ✭✭✭magnumlady


    Hubby raves about the 4lights full Irish breakfast.
