r/DerryLondonderry

This wasn't a problem years ago, are places just disgusting these days? Maybe I have rose tinted glasses on but I'd say 4/10 of the last takeouts I've gotten had fishy chips. Really putting me off takeouts in general (which is probably a good thing tbh).

It's fine if you order fish, but fishy chips on a chicken box for example is almost inedible. Especially with the rising prices. I order from a multitude of places.

I remember mr cs used to do 2 baguettes 2 sides and 2 cans for £12 or something.

What is a good deal from takeaways in derry for meal deals

Are there any such places in Derry? We were on Waterloo Street tonight and it was insane. Hordes of drunk young people, no chance to get in anywhere and enjoy the music- difficult to even get a beer. Is there anywhere else that is more chill in town?

For context: I live abroad and come home every 2-3 months. Usually, it's on Ryanair flights so at stupid times up and down. Every single time, I've been tempted to drive via Newry, Sprucefield way. But when I fire on Google Maps setting off, it always recommends the standard way via Strabane, Omagh, Monaghan, Ardee, M1.

I'm coming home next week to surprise the ol boy for his birthday. Flight gets in at 10pm and have to work the next morning (remotely). So, I want to get up the road as quickly as possible. What's the opinions on driving via the new way?

Ironically, I've found the time.that I'm driving that the traffic is worst on the section around the M1 from Dublin to Ardee and after that it's usually plain sailing. Last time, I was on that road about 1am and it was full of absolute fucking idiots, who have no idea how lanes work on a motorway, but as soon as I got off the motorway, it was fine all the way home. Wondering if it's worth the extra mileage to come up via Belfast.

Anyone else starting to get very annoyed with the constant fireworks going off? I’m in bogside area and it’s been most days since I’d say July/August, I’m assuming it’s kids? Driving the dogs mental
