"Which of these have you been in Carith?"Still go into one regularly albeit not a eating house now but:135 Briggate Gap Leeds does this qualify?? reggie only asked for 'old restaurants' so yes Carith i think your input more than qualifies in my humble opinion.
There are only 10 types of people in the world -those who understand binary, and those that don't.

It was owned by a bloke called Ivano, and had a huge menu (variety of dishes, not shear size.)A favourite meal would be canneloni followed by Chicken Cordon Bleu (chicken breast stuffed with ham and cheese and deep-fried in breadcrumbs - coronary on a plate) followed by Neapolitan ice-cream. I couldn't eat that much now.I think Tiberio's is still going. Anyone know for sure? Hi Si, Tiberios is still open on Galloway Lane,in there about 18 months ago. Lovely meals plenty of it and not bad prices.Remember Costas Steak House well and enjoyed some really good meals in there. Hi Si Tiberios did close for a time a few months ago it has now opened with new owners.Another Restaurant i remember is the Restaurant in the Park in Horsforth park now a chinese restaurant.

Trojan wrote: There was Nash's Tudor Fish Restauant on Merrion Street, I only went there once - they used to have Christmas Dinner Dances and I went to one. Can't remember much about it. I've often wondered why Nash's closed. After all it doesn't seem to have re opened as anything else. I think that "simply fish and chips" is no longer the big force in eating out that it was Trojan, and also Nash's was a bit off the beaten track. There was allso Youngmans in Briggate (opposite Leiwss's side door) at one time - they were the best, on three floors plus take away shop. the they built a new emporium just in Harrison Street but too late - the rot had set in. they then moved to a first floor room above a shop in Briggate, and finally closed.Another wonderful fish and chip cafe was in the lower (narrower) part of Merrion Street for years - the Merrion Fish and Chip Bar, another top value unpretentious little place.Returning to Nash's, it was first taken over by a Castleford firm and introduced really cheap meals and "kid's bargains" etc etc., but closed after a very short time and as you say is now defunct.
There's nothing like keeping the past alive - it makes us relieved to reflect that any bad times have gone, and happy to relive all the joyful and fascinating experiences of our own and other folks' earlier days.

I think he's fallen out with me.Yeah, I appreciate the irony re asking someone living im Malta about a restaurant 10 mile away! You've probably had half a dozen meals there in the time its taken for me to get back to you.Valletta is still good. Hot and full of bloody tourists but good. They've got an M&S on Strait St now with a bar! Every branch should have one.Too hot to go out at moment, 34c, thank God for the computer.Back in Leeds in Oct for some cool and some proper ale! Hi Ruffarse,Thanks for the reply. Sorry this is late, but I've just got back from two weeks in Portugal, and therefore haven't had a meal in Tiberio's yet! It was the same temperature in the Algarve, too. Bloody hot! The local supermercado has a bar, but they only have Super Bok on draught! Not sure if there are plans to licence M&S Owlcoates, yet!Cheers,Si
