The current menu at B&F (from the website) is:

The order, including special steaks, is (so far):
If you want special steaks then need to pre-order, but assume we'll pre-order anyway?

Any more?

Will submit order at the end of this week.

Booked from 1700 for 14 people.

The lovely people at the B&F have asked if we want to pre-order any special steaks.

The options are:
300g rib eye @ £34
400g t-bone @ £42
600g club sirloin @ £48

I'm happy to co-ordinate this so JDAW can continue playing in his cellar.

Rib eye - Black and blue please

As above with chips and green beans
Plus a starter of Salmon please

Sorry Charles - missed yours.

Starter: Salmon.
Main: Sharing steak with AHB. Chips and green beans and shallots.

Starter of salmon, and sides of fries and green beans for me please.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to drop out. Apologies!

Mac n cheese has made a reappearance-hurrah! I will have that for starter please followed by steak (m-r) and fries with green beans and shallots. Thanks.

I’ve asked what will the Soup of the Day, and was offered choices. It will be, I now know, Leek and Potato. Which is therefore my starter.

I like leek.

Starter: Leek and Potato soup
Main: Club Sirloin Medium-Rare to share with IDJ; plus chips and Bearnaise sauce for me please

If not too late, please could I also order green beans and shallots, French fries and a bernaise sauce.

No starter for me.

Sending food pre-order to B&F later today. If anyone hasn’t yet ordered do so now or you’ll have to order on the night.

Food order submitted. Harry will need to order on the night.

I'm very sadly having to drop out of this, I have tried very hard to move something but very sadly can't. Have a great evening all.

The Warre 1970 has become (indeed, always was) a Dow 1970.

Placemats added to first post. Somebody pls do a cursory check.

All looks correct.

Work half day. I could double-decant at home. Or I could arrive circa 14:00 for a late lunch and decanting there. Which, with help from a few others, might have us looking, by say 16:30, embarrassed at some empties. Team theory?

Am back to back in meetings until 1815 tomorrow, alas...

Travelling up from New Forest so can’t make an early kick off.

Grovelling apologies to all. The order got to B&F an hour after their supplier cut-off yesterday morning, so unfortunately no special steaks tonight. At the moment it's assumed that everyone will have the standard 240g sirloin instead. If you want something different please change your order when you arrive.

A hopefully interesting bottle will accompany me this evening that clearly won't make up for the disappointment but might help soften the blow.

As we are only nine, no need to pre-pour.

Done. I'll aim to get to B&F 1730ish.

I should be at the B&F around 17.30.

Julian will have been there on his own since 14.30. What could possibly have gone wrong?
