I've just seen that you can enjoy a 10oz sirloin steak and chips at the Hand And Flowers pub in Marlow for the bargain price of £87.

It's a special piece of meat from one of just 1% of the top farms in the country. It comes with two onion rings, a few triple cooked chips and some bernaise sauce.

Would you pay that much for a steak? Seems excessive to me, especially when you factor in a drink and maybe a pud plus the 'voluntary' 12.5% service charge.

And this is a pub, obviously a very good one, but a pub nonetheless. All hail the Beefeater!

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

I think that’s a bit much for 10oz. I normally go to goodmans or hawksmoor in London and price would be 40-50 quid for an 18oz steak, then 5 quid for each of sides. Even then it wouldn’t be 87 quid!

For that kind of dosh I’d want the chips at least quadruple cooked.

why do they let chips go cold twice to then re-cook them ?

Because they had some leftovers to get rid of?
In any case they look like an awful faff

A man after my own heart. I also used to go to Gauchos but Goodmans is my favourite. All in my bill with drinks etc normally about £100.
