Gilly G. Ossenfeffer Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I went in on new years eve, Food was nice, but tbh I thought it was a bit overpriced, 2 basic lunches(can't remember what we had exactly) and 2 glasses of lemonade, £28.00? Had dinner in the upstairs part last week. The food was really delicious but VERY expensive. (Eg., Bottle of water £18! cheapest bottle of housewine £24.)

slinkydevil Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 £18 for water???? no way! I'd refuse to pay that TBH. Ruthless. Even 15,000 year old Berg glacier water at Claridges is only £15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitch Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I'd want a blowjob off the waitress if their food and drink costs that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Tatlock Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I'd want a blowjob off the waitress if their food and drink costs that much. Or a damn good **** at least. Instead, sounds like she'll just bring you the bill at the end of the night and say: 'Now you're fu**ed'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeky boy Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Even 15,000 year old Berg glacier water at Claridges is only £15 I bought some of that but it was two days past the sell by date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2084 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Ouch Dearest water is £14, and we wont have it on new menu, surprisingly - though I am not sure how people that haven't tried it can comment objectively (it was there as a talking point mainly, cost us £12.20 by the time it made it over some other water). That said, sales are not the only reason it is not on the new menu! New wine list (that has water on it) out soon, house water is 4 I think for 750ml. Too much? Other drinks prices have been amended too since November so dunno. Since October, when we opened, portion sizes have been amended upwards. But, eg, in the bistro bit (which as owner I agree lacks identity - fixed in next few weeks), two large slices of cheeses/tomatoes on bloomer, side salad and real chips is not expensive at £6! Restaurant prices reflect the cost of best quality local ingredients am afraid, so spologies if for some people it seems expensive. We work to lower margins than any place in a similar segment here that I know of. Thanks for the positives within the above though, we will get it right. Apologies for not replying earlier, didn't see the thread. ps Anyone who beats an individual event world record on Track n Field gets a free meal btw. And don't mention websites!!!!!!!!!!!

Vosene Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Is the daytime menu more varied now? We went a couple of times for lunch and it was nice enough, but it was basically burger, steak sandwich, or all day breakfast - a bit more choice wouldn't have gone amiss. The games downstairs are cool but last time I looked there was still NO GODDAMNED PINBALL, DAMMIT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
