Nothing healthy. Pricey. A fiver for onion rings. Looks like 5 for a fiver. £1 an onion ring.
Chicken Katsu sandwich looks nice though!

Why does the food have silly names, surely better to be bhafc related, but I can only see one

Where is the Dunkin Doughnut or the BobbyZ Burger
Yeah could've named things better. Honestly beans on toast looks more exciting than that menu.

Food menu is a bit over priced, especially the vege options.
Drinks menu though……. Hello 👀 a deal on the bombs pre game would be very welcome! Sadly no Makers Mark on the menu for @jackalbion 🫨

had a good look at the menu. Looks okay, I’m drawn more towards The Lost Boys fayre, with a pale ale. Might even treat myself to a martini if the mood is good. Disappointed there’s no pies though.

It will be interesting to see how the menu develops, I imagine it will be refined over time and the less popular items get the chop. Same happened when the AMEX opened.

Wonder if all the 1901ers will go to the Terrace, better food choices, highly likely to be better quality….

Perhaps Sodexo will finally up their game

1901ers have lounges to hang around and wait for the train queues to die down. I imagine initially there will be some curiosity but long term I can’t see much point.

Apologies if covered - do we know if you have to get "in" the venue to get a beer, or will there be hatches or bars selling pints in plastic cups that you can mill around outside with?

Personally I liked how it was with the Harvey's bars before. Not got any interest in getting there early and queueing to get in there - but I've really missed arriving about 90 mins before kick off, getting a pint and casually seeing what friends have arrived, hanging out in the fresh air before going into the concourse.

Yes. Understand why its Heineken Zero but these days there's so much choice and good quality AF out there. Although i think they are also selling Guinness Zero.
At Lewes FC - they sell cans of this from a local brewery which is vg.
There seems to be only one option for Bitter drinkers.
Is that ok?

None of the beers on offer would be my preferred pint, in any of the categories available, if I was looking for an evening's drinking.
But t's a stadium fan zone.
It's not a bar selling beer 365 days a year.

Not sure it's a reasonable point to criticise the club on.

What impact, if any, will this have on the concourses both pre-match and post-match? I'm thinking staff numbers and whether less food is put on etc as well as post-match opening times.

This is a good point.

I've felt (anecdotally, I don't keep a log) that the times at which they kick out of the North Stand after a game have crept forward this season.

If the train queues have gone then fair enough - can go into town and carry on. But if they feel there's so few people left in there that it's not worth staying open much after FT, but the terrace is full and the station is still busy, that'd be rubbish. Hopefully won't happen though.
