Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted August 3, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted August 3, 2022 On balance, i'd rather go straight in the hotel and pay for my beer than go around the ground and into a tent with a bunch of trainee bar staff. If it was free beer all day, it's a bit different but not putting myself out for the sake of £4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomski Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Looking forward to giving it a go on sat. I’d be annoyed if they had done nothing. Going to mix it up a bit with Reflections/hotel/town as the hotel is good but a bit dull as a regular haunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me I actually think it’s pretty fair. You’d of paid £20 notes for 5 beers virtually anywhere so the table and view were free in my head if you like. I would drink the lagers though so 5 for £25 seems ok to me. Where I think they’ve ballsed up is the craft stuff at 4 for £28. Losing a beer as well becomes less interesting.

I wana try it (seems like a fair deal with the setup and view etc) but the group I go with are adamant you won't be able to see a TV from those curved booths.

Should be interesting but good luck to them. I'll stay in my comfy seat in the hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
