Wetherspoons - Order and Pay App.

Good value is fine. But steak that costs a fiver isn't "class"

This is just semantics now.

It's really not

It's really not

The quality of the steak is in the mouth of the beholder iirc m8

Using class colloquially is on par with decent and canny for me.

Slightly below mint of course.

Where does 'hellish' come into it?

I once got told off at school for saying the world hellish. Fuck knows why.

Would struggle to get a decent one to cook yourself for a fiver

Ohh, I'd say hellish is up there with the very best like.

Speaks for itself that it once got you in bother.

If you're ordering a steak in a wetherspoons then you have no idea about food or life

They're nice enough for the price and are neither frozen or microwaved.

 

[Paddy O'Dors]

Some do, some don't.

I've often wondered why people complain about this like, remember some bloke being really upset at the Spoons in Bishop cos he asked for some beer mats and they didn't have any.

It's the little things that make a place. They don't cost owt.

Alternatively

Pubs without soul where the unemployed drink the day away and where you can get filthy microwaved food

Aspirational middle class person alert!!!!!

You aren't wrong, it's an opinion.

There are of course some that are decent.

But I don't like the way they destroy the business of decent local pubs by undercutting. And the food is generally very very poor, you get a lot but it's shit quality.

I don't disagree with this mind you, there's now one in Keswick in the lakes, for example that ALL the locals drink in because cider is 1.70 a pint or summat daft.

But I bet you use Uber and that does the same to taxi drivers. You could make the argument that they keep prices down for people that need it.

Also depending on what you choose the quality of the food isn't that bad, from recent experience.

I know that's just my opinion but for what it's worth I eat in restaurants/hotels on average over 100 times a year through travel with work.

Whole town was quiet last month when I visited other than wetherspoons so off peak the regular pubs may struggle

Anyone know if the Union Rooms is still open or has it closed down for its refurb?

Probably best asking on a mag board
