nought wrong with dropping into a spoon for a scoop from time to time, although saying that i don,t feel it would have quite the right image for the lane, its more suitable for camberwell imho. yet again like the dwh thread, we have the age old arguments about the standard of the food and its the same old names time after time. its a weatherspoons, its reputation is built on cheap food and cheap drink, hence you get a pint and a burger and chips for 3-4 quid. For that price you won,t get chunky hand-cut chips with rock salt and balsamic vinegar, freshly prepared side-salad and a succulent aberdeen angus burger, in a freshly made organic roll, you get deep fried oven chips, a deep fried burger with a freshly defrosted roll, thats what they do as regards all those slagging weatherspoons off, i have no doubt whatsoever, that should a spoons open up on the lane, those same ones won,t be so slow about sticking their heads throught the door, and once they realise how much they are being ripped off by the other bars in ed, their tune would soon change.
