Yet I went out the first weekend of the new year and specifically said to the missus “we won’t need to book anywhere, it’s a freezing weekend just after Christmas” then we got turned away from five places with no tables before we found one.
Edit – I’ve been reminded the first weekend of the new year was right after the event, I meant the second weekend.
I’m assuming he’s referring to restaurants that charge around £60+ for a small portion that only well off people can go to. But when it comes to places offering reasonably priced meals, say, £10 to £15 per person, I think we’re actually in a bit of a golden era right now.
Fast food outlets, in particular, are thriving at the moment, especially with the rise of delivery apps like Just Eat, Deliveroo, Uber Eats, and so on.
Most restaurants have completely lost their way. Joints that offer good size portions for reasonable price and no bullshit services charges are always full.
Its the expensive small portions places that are getting decimated, and I am here for it.
The title should say:
“I’ve never seen it *as* bad for restaurants as it is now”
Have you tried not charging £7.50 for a bottle of water and £7.50 for a Service Charge?
I went in to one of the London restaurants for a £24.50 Fish & Chips and a beer and paid £56. So now, I won’t be back ever again, even though the food was delicious.
I felt ripped off by the two charges. I’d have paid more for the food and felt it was pretty good value.
I’ve sat exactly where he stood in that photo! That’s HIGH.
Local pub. £100+ for two, with a bottle of wine.
Local pizza place for 4, £150
Thats a lot of money before you get to Ramseys level of restaurant.
There’s a chinese family run greasy spoon near me that serves usual Chinese comfort food and the usual British fry up, bacon butties etc for very decent prices. Always rammed on a Saturday and closed in Sundays.
Most people want decent grub, for a reasonable price. A ‘smash burger’ and ‘skin on fries’ for £20 is not it
Honestly anything mildly fancy i will just eat out abroad, its more economical. In the UK my Shawarma bossman is enough 🤣
Everywhere seems pretty busy when you go at peak times on the weekend?
And regardless, restaurants can be such a rip off now. You either pay extortionate prices to get nicely cooked food, or pay high prices to get clearly microwaved food
I’ve almost totally stopped eating out because it costs too much and my wages aren’t higher than 5 years ago. This started during and after COVID 4 years ago.
The media is booting Labour as responsible for this shit, this decline has been happening for much longer.
Trying to wash their reputations from what happened under the Tories.
disposable incomes are awful these days, the places that are 10-18 quid with reasonable portions are doing great it seems
The people saying “prices are too high”, I suspect, will be the first to celebrate increased minimum wage, higher taxes, and more workplace regulation.
