Latest Restaurant Review:Oily's, Workington

"Working as a busy mobile DJ for many years i decided that we would take time out on Thursday evenings and tried many local pubs for a bar meal. One time we tried Oilys and the rest is history. I have since retired from the DJ job some 18 months ago but still look forward to our Thursday Night treat. Fantastic food cooked to order and a wonderful team front of house. Well done every one, Thursday tomorrow Yippee !!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
