Thanks for the replies and PM's re: drinking in Barnsley. Apparently my friend wants to eat as well: "Now then: can I trouble you/your fellow message boarders further: good places to eat in central Barnsley?" Any recommendations?
RE: Pinochios restaurant across form Wilcos Chilli up market street is ok. Or there is the Grillhouse place next door if you are not into that kind of thing.
Really? That's the only place (other than pubs) that I've eaten in Barnsley and I wasn't exactly impressed. To be fair, though, it was a lunchtime special.
RE: China Moon Romano's across from the library/town does quality food. Been there a few time and have been impressed.
