Credit crunch? Pay what you think at Little Bay Farringdon!
"Just pay us what you think it's worth"
London restaurant tears up the bills for its customers.....
A London restaurant is tearing up its bills and asking customers to just pay what they think their food and service is worth.
Peter Ilic, owner of the Little Bay restaurant group, will not present a single food bill to diners at his Farringdon Road restaurant during February.
“It’s entirely up to each customer whether they give £100 or a penny. All I’m asking is they pay me what they think the food and service is worth,” said Peter, who has run restaurants in London for more than 26 years.
Little Bay is renowned for serving fresh, hearty meals at incredibly good prices in its trademark opulent surroundings. The February menu at Little Bay Farringdon includes ingredients which wouldn’t be out of place at Michelin starred establishments including foie gras, smoked salmon, caviar and fillet steak. Customers will also be treated to Little Bay’s famous live opera.
Peter said: “It just seemed the right thing to do with everyone under the cosh and feeling pretty miserable. We have seen so many more City folk coming into the restaurant lately, looking for a better value lunch. We’re well known for serving great food at very competitive prices and this is the ultimate value for money meal.”
“Pay what you think it’s worth” will be available for the whole of February at Little Bay Farringdon. While drinks are not included in the offer, tap water will be freely available. To reserve a table, customers should call 0871-075-6872. Little Bay Farringdon is located at 171 Farringdon Road, EC1R.
There are four Little Bay restaurants throughout London: Belsize Road, Kilburn NW6; York Road, Battersea SW11; Selsdon Road, Croydon, CR2; and Farringdon EC1.
