Now I've found this wonderful forum, I hope you don't mind me picking your collective brains ;)

I live inside the city ring road... near the Devonshire Green - and you know what? I really am having trouble finding a decent place that delivers things like Pizza / Chinese on those nights where I run out of food at home ;)

I would go to Weatherspoons but that involves walking past a lot of places that frighten me lol because I was mugged near there not long ago :o

So far, I've tried

Oasis pizza (who were reasonable, but use far far too much cheese and it gave me stomache ache hehe).

Nibbles pizza (one of my flatmates like these a lot but I think they taste a little odd).

Chariot Pizza (friendly service, and I love the hot and spicey pizza these guys do, but the others I live with don't like it...)

I'm not in the delivery area for Pizza Hut or Dominoes :o despite Dominoes delivering a few times then deciding they wouldn't any more!

So does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks everyone :D

*crosses fingers* I hope they deliver here... I could walk it in 20 mins so I hope they would hehe :)

Edit:

And do you have any recommendations as to what to order? 8)

Hehe - okey dokey

Hmm I usually get myself a pizza with chicken tikka on it (they are actually quite nice when hot, so make sure they get it to u on time!).

Just considering what you said, if you are walking down, go across the road to Imrans Diner (opposite the Pixxa Hot 4 U. They do good pizzas aswell, and reasonably prices but they don't delivery, be prepared to wait as they are usually very busy.

I feel like a pizza now (eating one, that is of course :) )
It helps me digest the sheer amount of math I have to do to get the bank manager to agree to fund my new project.

I'm off to get a coffee!

I got the Chicken Tikka, Sweetcorn and peppers pizza :) side orders of potatoe skins and cheese, wedges, and garlic bread (ordered for the house lol)

It was absolutely deliscious :D

And their menu is soooo extensive!

Stuffed crusts too :D

Thanks for the recommendation!

I live around the area that you live - by any chance, is that area called Headford where you live. If so this place is going downhill badly - lots of unsavoury characters living around these parts. I, too, was mugged just behind the new West One complex for my mobile phone when i was jumped by 5 black youths. With a culmination of issues, i have decided to move out of the area and i leave in november. I am interested to know whether you live around by me

When you say Headford, do you mean Headford Gardens area?

Yeah it's the headford gardens/mews/street area >.<

And yes it was there I was mugged where you were - two youthes walked towards me, each grabbed from a different pocket.

I got my phone back by smacking one of them in the teeth and tripping him up... stupid I know :(

They got away with some cash though :(

I'm desperately needing to move... but the rent here is sub £500 and for a city centre, thats a great price.... If anyone knows any other reasonable flats to rent...?

Do you live in a flat up there or a house?
I know a few poeple who want to move there anyway, having said that they are a bit 'ard.

For Chinese, try Wok This Way.

394 Fulwood Rd
Sheffield
South Yorkshire
S10 3GD

Tel: 0114 230 3008

They've got a really good selection of dishes and do plenty offers (i.e. get a free dish when you spend so much, etc...) They're always our first choice when we have a Chinese delivered. (I think they'll deliver to most places but they do charge for it!)

You just don't get this quality of info from the Yellow pages ehehehehehehe

All the plcaes around Headford **** are flats, all you need to do is drive down and write down the numbers of letting agents!
