alan Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Hi All I've read with interest the Threads on polarisation, tyres, weights, driving ability, punctuation - but now to the really important question :-D - we're shortly leaving Dover on our trip to Croatia and require a bacon sandwich in Dover! Does anyone know of a cafe or wheeled delicatessan (otherwise known as a 'greasy spoon') in Dover? (Think the punctuation is right!). Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randonneur Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Easy solution - park on Marine Parade and make your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Jones Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 ALTERNATIVELY - the other thing you might miss once outside the UK is proper fish and chips. There's a good chippy on Castle St, and usually room to park on street while you scoff them, before taking Randonneur's advice and sleeping it off on Marine Parade. Not sure, they might even do bacon butties too - some chippies do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donna miller Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Randonneur - 2011-06-30 10:15 AM Easy solution - park on Marine Parade and make your own. If you're a member of the CC, you're not allowed to cook in lay-bys. :D Last time I was in Dover ( a couple of years ago), there was a snack van in the big car park by the leisure centre.

alan Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 Hi All Thanks for the various suggestions - we will be parked on the Marine Parade but leaving at 7am in the morning to catch the ferry we didn't want to be bothered to cook. When we're out in the van, we don't eat out often so I wanted to treat 'she who must be obeyed' to a little luxury and maybe a cup of coffee as well! However, we'll try the fish and chips on our return at a more 'fish n chip' hour. Meantime, we'll give the leisure centre car park a whirl!

Usinmyknaus Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Not a greasy spoon, but if you are walking round Dover the evening before you could try walking past Greggs at 71 Biggin Street, CT16 1BB just off the High St and a short walk from Marine Parade to check out their opening hours. (Or call 01304 203546) If I remember correctly, it opened at 0800 but the company is trialling longer opening hours in some stores so if your lucky it may have changed. The Greggs bacon roll was pretty good and fresh made to order last time I had one. Please let the forum know how you get on in Coatia, I suspect a few will be planning to go at some point in the future. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 Usinmyknaus Thanks for the tip about Greggs, we will investegate and let everybody know about the important bacon sandwich. :-S Am about to put a request onto another listing about Croatia so, as they say, watch this space.
