Value and Pricing
Pros:
"The food and wine was excellent and my friends' and family's bar bill was surprisingly reasonable."
Cons:
"All this of course comes at a cost which seemed excessive when I found out how much had been spent on the day."
"If you like a drink or two as you would at celebrating a wedding you will need to have plenty of money for this venue as drinking here is not cheap."
"In the small print of the price list South Farm have hidden the fact that vat is yet to be included and they lump on an above-inflation 9% for next year's prices."
"The bar prices were high, but then it’s not a Wetherspoons."
