Had a pretty manky quarter pounder with cheese yesterday. Wouldn't it be nice to have some Indian, Chinese, Thai stalls like the ones in Greenwich market.
lol £3,25 is cheap for Charlton catering. You seen how much they charge for hot drinks?! Thieving b*stards. Try a pie next time - they seem to be popular. COYR
Odd experience yesterday. I bought a pint of lager and handed over a tenner. The guy that served me entered £5 on the till register. I noticed this, and told him that it was a tenner not a fiver, at which point he called over his supervisor to cancel the sale and put the correct amount in. I told him that that was unnecessary and that all he had to do was add five pounds onto my change, the result would be the same, but without any messing about. I then had three of them arguing that that would put the till out. Am I missing something? No wonder the service is so slow.
Sad to see in Bart's and the concourses how much money we do ourselves out of each week because the service cant cope. Cant blame the people working as they graft non stop but there must be a better system as we must lose out on hundreds if not thousands each week in lost revenue with people giving up on getting served.
I guess it depends on the margins made. We're always reading how pubs makes so very little profit on a £3.00 pint a lager so perhaps no point the club bothering
Agree the food quality is pretty bad, I had a burger at half time as I was feeling a bit dknur and it was one of those where you could feel it slowly making it way down when you swallowed a chunk.
It doesn't actually cost that much more to produce food with fresh ingredients, and of course the increase in sales volume would more than make up for that. But your staff costs would practically double as you'd have to have a prep kitchen. It's a lot of work to cater for thousands of people - Not forgetting that these people who have to be chefs rather than catering outlet assistants or whatever they're currently called, further increasing costs.
Can't ever see it happening. Captive audience and all that.
But a high-quality van outside the ground would do a roaring trade.

Since i moved to the west 2 years ago the ones outside the north stand are average..
It is so badly done I'm pretty sure the revenue it provides must be fairly minuscule or the club would sort it out.
