What is half a sandwich anyway? Top half? Bottom half? One rectangle? One triangle? Why no photo of said sandwich. If times are tough in hospitality then decent marketing is key. Facebook is a great tool for food places as a decent photo and a decent price will grab people’s attention. Advertising half a sandwich is just pathetic. I would say value for money, not being ripped off and short changed. Offering originality and innovation also helps. I dont think that H&B pubs offer fantastic value for money, especially in terms of the offerings to the consumer, but that’s my own view.?

Great to hear there were no bones, hake is my choice of fish and I do like it steaked and fried a la plancha with garlic and parsley olive oil and you expect bones.

Half a sandwich at a large price isn’t at least to me value of money. Isn't a sandwich like a hole. You can't have half of one. It's still a sandwich. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when you have eaten half of it, you still have a whole sandwich? This is way too much for a Sunday morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half a sandwich at a large price isn’t at least to me value of money. Is the Crosby a brewery pub? £9.50 for a cuppa soup and half a sandwich seems overly generous for them.
