colinsdog Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 What I don't get about these new set ups is the lack of table service, as most are saying the prices are top end premium. Why should I have to queue up and order at a till, I may as well be in McDonalds or JDW. I tried Handmade Burger co and was very underwhelmed indeed. Paying the price I did, I expect some lacky to at least take my order. I won't be going back, if I go out for the evening and have open wallet surgery for my meal, I at least expect to be sat on my ar$e when they ask me what I want. I agree matey. When paying upwards of 14 quid for a burger and fries i at least expect table service. And good service at that. Plenty of cheap sit down restaurants in sheff. ---------- Post added 15-11-2015 at 13:20 ---------- I went to the five guys in London. I did not mind the price as I wanted to try them and it was London. I don't think I will pay the same price in Sheffield. If you know what I mean lol. I would love to try "Fatburger" I know they have opened in London and my friend did see jobs advertised for Leeds. I dont get why its london prices. it as though 5 guys ignored the local economy. Americans - maybe they think sheff is a suburb of london! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and the fella can go to Venus in Dinnington and get a 4 course silver service meal for £39.50 for the pair of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just googled it to see as Silver Service was left behind somewhere in the 80's, as is this places menus! Prawn Cocktail, melon, pate, Duck a'l orange, chicken diane and salmon alaska. It looks like the Fawlty Towers party menu...... http://www.thevenusrestaurant.com/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we all liked the same thing, the world would be a very boring place. I was just amused by such an old fashioned menu, I hadn't seen one like it for so long. It must have some keen customers though if it stays open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HJO-1403 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I went a couple of weeks ago, really enjoyed it. Not out for food very often so don't mind the price when we do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
