[Uncle Buck]

I guess as a last meal....

 

[Titanic]

mmm... sacrilicious

 

[Trufflehound]

If it was launched in May 1911, and sank on its maiden voyage in April 1912, it must have been a bloody slow ship...

Or a very small hole...

 

[Albion Rob]

Imagine eating that and thinking "I'm the KING of the world" then suddenly BOOM and it's all gone Sixth Sense on you.

 

[Northstander]

A right bleedin bargain at £28 per head!!

These days you'd be lookin at £60 upwards for a meal like that!!

 

[Marc]

I wonder if you get ICE with the drinks

 

[CHAPPERS]

The Chef is making f*** all on that meal apparently, he just enjoys cooking it though so he threw it on there.

Best chef in town by a f***ing MILE.

 

[Man of Harveys]

The Greys food is awesome and an absolute bargain. I also like it when the chef comes and chats with you at the end when you're a bit half cut.

I'll DEFINITELY be checking that out. How long is he serving that for?

Up until the start of December when he begins with the crimbo menu. Can't wait for the christmas meal down there, always eventful and absolutely excellent.

Old Spats certainly is a character. I've had the pleasure of working with him, the lock ins we used to have there were excellent after he'd had a couple of beers.
