The Great Exhibition Pub - Thoughts?


AndrewBarton

Recommended Posts

Expensive.. Ales not kept particularly well from my limited visits there.


Large open area with bare boards so lots of noise from Tables / Chairs scrapping the floor.

Worse when there is live music. Most of the noise from outside during the summer.


Tiny bar for size of pub. Never eaten there from the grossly over priced limited menu.

Food does not look that appetizing. but haven't been in for a while. (2 Years or so) despite

being a mere 200 so steps away from my gaff.


Not sure The Great Exhibition knows what direction they want to go or what they are trying to achieve.

I certainly don't.

My well my birthday is on the 17th December so I still have time to find somewhere :) I was just wondering what I'd has been like recently? I was in there around 6 months ago but I heard it has changed management in the last couple of months so I'm just wondering if they have improved it or not

    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
