Cheap Food

• Got to be Sammy's - great kebabs after a night at Charlie Browns and to get a late drink, albeit vodka or brandy!
• For a great, cheap lunch on a budget, go to the sandwich shop at the end of Park street, opposite iceland in town. Great rolls and very cheap-tea is only 40p. Aroma is great-an oriental chinese buffet-5 pound for lunch all you can eat, 10 pound for evenings- the food is pukka. Also Nando's if your looking for some tasty chicken.
• The Luton Kebab House on the corner of Bute Street. Best kebabs in Luton, and the guys are very friendly
• GET TO BURY PARK BEFORE I ZAP IT, but Indian Ocean in Sundon Park is good.
• calafornia chicken, dont eat the chicken but a good box of chips for a pound.
• YATES BEST FOOD IN TOWN.
• jimmys kebab is still the best in the county

• Best restaurant is 'Fields' in the new St Lawrence Hotel on Guildford Street, which has an imaginitive menu and London standards of service. Hurry, it won't last long. An excellent and very smart restaurant called 'Mumbai' serves fairly authentic Indian food in the Galaxy Centre. Good Thai and Indian food sold from stalls on George Street most Saturdays.
• the old chip shop in Dunstable road Bury park opposite the old cinema, went there when I was at uni in 93, closed down now, sells hala chicken
• The patties from the market. All flavours inc veggie.
• Just been to Nandos in the Galaxy and the food is hot, hot & hot, cool music and cool staff, bout time Luton had cool resturant, i think their number is 01582431808, you can get take-aways aswell.
• If you want an experience of pure sleaze you could do worse then go to the kebab shop at the top of Cardigan Street. This grimy dingy place serves the worst kebabs I have ever tasted!
• SUBWAY everytime
• mcd's

• Sanabil's does the BEST 50p samosa's in the WORLD. They are at the traffic lights just after Town Tub Laundrette on Leagrave Road. Also does a chicken curry pastie which is great for breakfast. The Conways Arms is not a Pub anymore. It's a Halal Takeaway and restaurant. Scared to go in it though.
• The Lotus Pure Vegetarian Restaurant on Cheapside (behind the Arndale, next street along from the Engine). Excellent vegetarian, mostly vegan food, friendly staff, usually very quiet. The Luton & Dunstable Vegans group ( http://veganator.users.btopenworld.com/ ) goes there for a meal about once a month, and it's great!
• Great mexican restaurant in Chapel Street. Excellent food and service and a good line in cheeky cocktails as well.
• Best Kebab near the train station on Midland Road. Good quality well made kebabs. White House (JD Wetherspoon Pub in town centre) is good value. To Pigithaki Greek Taverna is great. Pizza Express has good pizzas when you want to sit and eat one (as opposed to getting it delivered to your door).
• The usual chains!! But our village resturants are wicked. The Lynmore in Sharpenhoe (just outside Luton) is lush. Pizza Express has just sprouted up in the town centre which is cool.
• Southern Fried Chicken - Crawley Road Road - nice chicken - only they can run out when they get a run of party packs :-(
• Greenfields again. Also the many Indian restaurants in Wellington Street. Lovely grub.
• Greenways
• Excellent Indian restaurants in Wellington Street
• Don's kebab van, car park of the Bramingham in Barton Hills. The food is spot on, but be warned, Don will always have left five minutes before you get there. During the week, he can be seen driving off before last orders, and no Sundays or Mondays. Or when he wants to stay in and watch telly. But great when he is!!
• Without doubt the best Indian restaurant in the town,Is the JAY RAJ,Hitchin road,stopsley. Try WEST WAY fish and chips,off putteridge road........you won't be disappointed!
• The best Indian is Master Chef on Hart Hill Lane and Chinese is the Jade Cottage on Old Bedford Road - both deliver and make sure you get some onion bargies (spelling??) from the Indian - lurvely!
• That Italian pace with the plastic table cloths near the train station..... MMMMMMmmmmmmm Yummy (nice Bruschetta) or however you spell it!!!!!
• Beware the Halal chicken take away in Bury Park - had the trots for a week.....
• Go to Bury Park for the best smelling and tasting food (Fried Chicken). Its got bad reputation but thats cos of the people who dont live there or go there cos they're too scared of it.
• Blossom Garden on Marsh Road - always very good food and ALWAYS a long wait
• the kebab takeaway outside wauluds highrise mind the piss if the winds in the wrong direction it spoils the flavour of his chilli source
• Good Earth chinese takeaway on Granville Road near the football is without doubt the cheapest in the world. The unspoken rule with it's fellow customers is: Don't tell them they're half the price of anywhere else! I don't think they even realise.
• Efeler Kebab in the town centre, pukka after a few beers.
• The chippy beside the Uni is great... and so is the food in The Rat and Carrot & the Newt.
• I think that the best quality fish and chips in the town, bar none, is available from Colin and Rita's, in Tavistock Street.
• There is a cyber cafe in Luton town centre - The Hard Drive Cafe at 16 King Street.
• Bury Park has a wide range of take aways but is a hot-spot of inter-religous tension with black cars with blacked-out windows.
• India Tandori Garden - Wellington Street (well it was six years ago!)
• Brannigans, White House and The Newt and Cucumber are the best for pub food. Also Luton is home to numerous chicken, pizza, chinese and curry take aways.
