cold pie, cold gravy and eaten with a spoon!

Postby Sharpy » Sun Sep 12, 2010 11:05 am

and i had to pay £2.50 for the privilege! then had to wait another 5 mins while the girl serving figured out that i wanted £2.50 change from the £5 i gave her. think the catering still needs a bit of sorting out..

My son went off with a £10 note for Pie & gravy and a Hotdog and came back with £4.50 change! It was so close to kick off that I couldnt be bothered going and questioning, but I wont be using the facility again until the 'teething troubles' are sorted out.

I am sure they will get it right soon.

2.50 for pie and gravy? It will cost you near enough £3 for a pie alone at most other grounds. :?

We sat in the main stand and heaven it was, easy access to grub and much better facilities but the only trouble is there's dry pie only, peas & gravy are reserved for the peasants in the north stand...................................away from the prawn sarnie brigade and back into the north next match if only for the Accoutrements :lol:

My Pie & Gravy was in the Main Stand. Maybe the extra £2 was for Gravy transportation? :lol:

I can't believe all this moaning. I had a cold pie, with gravy served out of a teapot, with a plastic teaspoon stuck in it. Went to get ketchup and they'd run out. 'Excuse me do you have any forks?'. Blank look. 'Any ketchup?'. 'I'll have a look'. Came back ten seconds later and served someone else and never spoke to me. Still it's improved from opening night. If it was a restaurant though I'd never go again.

They've also now got two queues. Bloke gets to the front, 'Two pints of lager please'. 'This is the food queue, you can't order drinks here'. 'Where does it say which ones food and which one is drink?'. There are no signs. 'Errr it doesn't. 'Well give me two f'ing pints then'. Comical.

Me and Philja had 2 pints of Strongbow, and a half pint bottle of Coors lite for Matty.
£9.80

At least Dick Turpin wore a mask :cry:

More worrying though, was the revelation that Matty drinks Coors lite :!:

£9.80 wow that is alot really.

I got to the bar in the globe thinking yes I'll buy Cool light it will be buy one get one free.

Silly me of course :shock: It was a £3.00 weak American Colo's light dam.

The drink I got told was budweiser bottle buy one get one free.

And then at h/t I wonder why they was no sign saying how much the food is and only a sign for the drink in the peter mcguiran stand :idea:

I remember christie park having signs saying the price's same as the drinks on the north stand

I know Morecambe Fc reads these posts. Lets hope some of the positive critiisms are taken on board as consitency and common fairness is needed in the club. The paying public are the backbone of revenue but are no mugs!

I had the exact same problem getting a beer at half time ''Queing in the wrong que''. Stupid idea really! In the end i got my Pie & Pint. Eating my pie though with a miniscule plastic teaspoon got to me, With a broken thumb and on oversized pot, it wasnt an easy task.
