Payne's Restaurant - Gas City

Blimey!

You've gotta try Payne's Restaurant in Gas City, Mate! You'll instantly detect a British flare when you walk in.

So, of course, we recommend the fish 'n' chips. But really, everything is delicious! And the portions are hearty, so you won't be going away hungry.

Save yourself a trip across the pond :-).
