I love a steak too but in a fine dining setting, if indeed this purports to be that, then yes absolutely.

"Portions a bit too small" - yeh it's not all you can eat buffet lads.

It’s penny pinching m8. You can have proper portion sizes in any setting.

And you pay the appropriate price for it. The target market for this level of hospitality won't want to pay that sort of price.

Looking at the prices this season, I think they already are. Prices have gone through the roof since we last bought tickets for hospitality (even allowing for inflation) and the inclusive half bottles of wine have gone too! :cry:

Our company had season tickets in the 106 for a few seasons and I took advantage a few times. Like the idea of the small plates with decent options usually around 5 savoury and 2 sweet options. As little or as much as you like except when really busy.
If a lunchtime kick of it was a breakfast/brunch offering.
You can get in a couple of hours before KO.
