DC-6 Diner at Coventry
 
Spotted this in the AOPA newsletter. Looks good - menu here: http://www.airbasecoventry.com/downl...nch%20Menu.pdf.

Anyone tried it? Looks like the perfect spot for lunch!

Good Lord..... no wine list! Sounds good tho'.

For those of the flying prevention branch and others incapable of finding it without aircrew to show them the way ;) , here is the wine list: http://www.airbasecoventry.com/downl...ine%20List.pdf

And yes, Airbase is a very good place to visit!

One assumes that the £10/head entrance fee is waived if one dines in the restaurant, otherwise it becomes a rather expensive lunch. Nice shot on the Airbase website of a DC6 "coming in to land" in 2006 after filming for 'Casino Royale' - pity the gear is still up!

NO fee to get into the diner.

Nice food and friendly service.

I work literally across the road from there if anyone wants me to duck in try some food. I am more than happy to slide out of the office and make this sacrifice. No really I am.

Do they still have an ILS at Coventry? Looks like SRA only these days...

I believe they still do. It still listed in the fees document for 2011 and as recent as April 2010 there was a planing application objection put in to a new building that might interfere with the ILS operation.

* This info is about as reliable as the amount you paid for it, its highly likely that I'm wrong.
