Thats not the Red house I remember it was along from the bahnhoff opposite the railway sidings.

The one you are thinking about, was painted a shade of red & was/is a knocking shop. The one in the picture, is just off the ring & was a heavy metal type club/bar that was notorious for drugs & the RMP/SIB always carried out sting operations there.

I hate to differ on the Gyros mate but, if you walked past this one on your right, crossed the pedestrian area/bridge, just on the left was a Greek restaurant with a tiny kiosk on the front, all they did was Gyros until our pressure got them to install a frier so we could have 'pommes mit mayo' alongside..............."Mmmmmmmmmm Lekker!" as the Hun would say. DEFINATELY the best Gyros in town!! The one in your picture was the one where, while rescueing me ol' pal 'Hacker' from the clutches of the QLR <Hawk, Spit> in the City Club, it took me 2 attempts to get food as Hacker was busy performing on the roof of our taxi!!!!!!!!!

Agreed old chap, but this one had a lovely Greek Lady working in it & you could step straight into a Taxi :D

Ah Reginas,those were the days.Straight back from soltau,tanks unloaded off the rail flats,tanks in the hanger and straight up to reginas in our covvies still stinking from a couple of weeks on soltau.Or in summer sleeping outside reginas in our maggots waiting for it to open.

Yes thats the one a nice shade of red and the sweet smell of pot as you entered.(not that I ever had a mind to try it).

And I agree A3B the best gyros was the one next to the Greekys.
F*** its making me hungry just writing about it.

If I am thinking the same place, I concur wrt the kiosk on the front of the Greek restaurant.

Here's another place I remember well. Italian restaurant between the Hauptbahnhof and the Westerntor, overlooking the road and the tracks.

I was sat entertaining a girlfriend when I stopped and looked down at the beermats. One side showed Paderborner Pils; on the other side was a picture of the Grey Horse in East Boldon. Turned out Paderborner Brewery was twinned with Vaux and I was sat looking at a pub I used to drive past every day on me way to work.

Small world.

Paderborner Brauerei?? Oh those visit days!!!!! Good bunch, they even built the new Barker RAC Cpl's mess bar (Solid Oak) at their cost!!!!!!!!

Can't believe no one has mentioned the Gallery just down the road from Alanbrooke but before the TOC H. What a weird place that was. Convenient place to change into your trainers as 15/19 guardroom would not allow singlies to 'Book Out' wearing them.

What if you were a 'Pad'?!! :D

onThe Guard Commander tied your laces for you!

I remember stopping for a Gyros outside the Grill-Kos - we were on a 432 Cadre and wanted something better than a horror box for lunch. 25 squaddies made for good business but the 3 x 432s made a right mess of the kerbs!

Sounds just as bad as when 3RHA took over from 25 Field RA
in Barker Barracks. They thought the camp was theirs & that we (3RTR) had to comply to their dress regs on going out of camp. The Provo Sarge went mental as we always told him in a diplomatic way to FCUK Orf as we wern't in his TTWWAAATT Regt :D

I never did find out when they had vehicle park parades seemingly weekly, where the feck did the 16 dropshort crew mysteriously appear from behind each Abbott?!?!?!?
