Where's that? I might go myself?

It's just on Rooley lane mate, the actually pub is called The Pavillion and it's a chain of Toby Carvery, it's on the same side as the old golf course and the opposite side to McDonalds. I think it's opposite a Yorkshire water building if I'm correct. It's not bad at all, I've been lots of times.

Ah yeah, it was one of those 'kids theme pubs' a few years back?
Either way, never thought of that, a decent carvery, few pints and off to the match - good call!

The Future curry house is at the top of Wibsey bank just up from Odsal roundabout.

Yeah that's right mate. It used to be called Brewsters a fair few years back. There is also another carvery pub in Tong that's not such a big chain, that's really good food there. If people want a Indian buffet then I think there is one down Manchester Road called Sahib's. I've been there a few times. It keeps closing down and opening back up though and I'm not sure about it's opening times though. As for Chinese buffet, there are three that I go to quite regularly but only one is in Bradford that is Beijing Diner on Halifax Road, it's £4.50 but it's only open on Mon, Weds and Fri I think and certain times. The other is in Halifax, that's called The Imperial which is open 1200 - 1400hrs daily Mon - Sat and is £5 and finally there is Jumbo in Huddersfield which is open all day everyday which costs £8. Jumbo is the best and has the best selection.

Akbars is only a 5 minute drive from Odsal Top.

On a non match day maybe but remember a few thousand people will be traveling down Dick Ln at around that time and he will be coming in from the 606.

A few of the reasons I like Jumbo so much is because there is so much coice and you can be sure that they will always try new things in their buffet. Those little spicy sausages that they have are to die for, I took my boy their and gave him a few without knowing how much chili they contained, poor lad burned his mouth out with them. Also they serve pancakes with duck and plum sauce aswell which is quite hard to come by in budget buffet resturants.

TBF even Sebastian Coe would struggle from Odsal to either of those and back. And if he ate much, I wouldn't even put money on him making it for kick off
