Me and my brother had the BBQ hot dog with pulled pork and it was awesome, expensive (which you can expect) but awesome !

What price would you pay? And for what?bluemoon73 said:Ditto.SWP's back said:Great insight.bluemoon73 said:No way was i going to be paying them sort of prices.
If I shopped at Aldi and Lidl it's unlikely I'd be paying £9 on pie, chips and a coke.SWP's back said:Of course they do. It's bluemoan.toffee balls said:tight twats 0 city 1 in my bookjohnny on the spot said:CHIP SHOPS 1 - 0 Jamie '****' Oliver
on the plus side it will keep all you skin flints out of the ground before kick off and leave us lucky ones in peace.
do you all shop at Aldi and Lidl
It was the first night of them serving the new menu so it's only fair to give them the benefit of the doubt but by the same token I'm sure those in charge will be after feedback otherwise there's no way to improve.

You think £5.50 for a pie is reasonable? Fish chips peas and gravy is cheaper on the way to the ground, instead of Jamie Oliver they should have brought in Greggs!

Are you just going to call everyone that or maybe realize that some Blues just don't earn the same kind of money as others?

Some of these burgers cost more than an hour's wage for some people, so not really tight to consider them overpriced. Of course, people need to remember it's a choice and not an obligation to buy the food at these prices...

£2-10 for chips from tony's chippy (with free fork!). Lovely.
I can't afford the overpriced food inside but i somehow manage to go a couple of hours without eating at the game. Each to their own...

I agree but thats the way it is.
I am fortunate to be not too worried about the price.
I can fully understand why people cannot aford the prices and choose to eat elsewhere.
I go with a mate and my 10 year old son and it suits me better to get in the stadium as soon as it opens.That is what City are trying to do , get you in there early.
I love the build up to the game , the razmattaz and I get my 3 pints and now some decent scran.
It suits me and plenty others.
Lets face it , drinking and eating in deepest Beswick is not for the faint hearted

First time I've been able to get onto BM since I got back from the game so here's my two penneth worth ... the quality of catering and catering organisation is utter dog shit.
OK I admit we got in the ground very early. We watched the team arrive from the 3rd tier walkway so within a couple of minutes we were at the food bar. Mrs Baldy ordered curry and chips. Chips absolutely stone cold. I ordered a meat and potato pie. I think it was a meat and potato pie! But at least it was hot. There was steady stream of people returning their curry and chips. They must have cooked those chips and placed them under the food warmer lamps at least 40 mins before the turnstiles opened.
I also asked for a Heineken at £4. I naively thought I'd get a pint, but no I got a bottle. The food bar next door was serving pints for the same price, so I asked for my money back on the bottle (untouched) and told them they were ripping off fans. I got my money back on the bottle and went next door for the pint. Mrs Baldy eventually got some hot chips and curry. Not a knife or folk any where to be had. Couldn't find an holistic pie anywhere!!
The staffing was bobbins but it's not the staffs fault, they obviously hadn't had the correct training although some of the operatives (a) didn't appear to understand English and (b) had zero customer service skills.
Some of the staff didn't have the necessary logon credentials to operate the tills, so they were continually had to call over the supervisor to allow a transaction.
Had to laugh when one of the supervisors shouted generally in the direction of the cooking area "chef, can we have some hot chips" ... chef my arse, been watching to many fookin cookin programmes!!
Jamie Fackin Oliver or no Jamie Fackin Oliver, they'll never get it right!

City are the most fan friendly , pro active and forward thinking football club on this planet and all some of you can do is fucking moan moan moan.
Stadium is shite , Maine Rd blah blah
Trams are shite
Food is overpriced shite
Filling in fans surveys are shite.

Pmsl what a nice decent caring fella you are.
Not sure why you're struggling to grasp the point of this thread. The food has supposedly improved beyond recognition (or if you were to read what had been said beforehand, you would certainly be led to believe it the case) and on first showing it wasn't. It's been overpriced and the staff training has been non existent.toffee balls said:bluemoon73 said:toffee balls said:I agree but thats the way it is.

The club want to make things better for the fans and should be applauded - the fact that they're trying to improve the standard of food is fantastic but only if there is an improvement. Last nights showing wasn't perfect and I'll happily give them a chance to get it right, but as somebody who eats a lot at the ground due to it being the only chance I get after rushing to and from the games between work the least I'd expect is it to be hot.
