The catering has changed for behind the goals and granted the pie was better but the prices need to be looked at. Bought pie and chips(very small portion) for me and my boy and it cost £9 it's almost double the price I was paying previously. Went to BTGs as it was cheap (not best food) and I can get my son while I have a pint. Even the pies on offer were some strange creations and can't understand why they changed it as it suited the clientele better.

I went for two cans of coke and it came to 2.40 (expensive, but fine) but they had no change. At all. Ridiculous.

I am a regular at BTG as I take my 3 kids. Last season pie and Chips £3.00 - £3.50. Decent steak and gravy pie and helping of chips. Yesterday the prices had ramped up by 29% Pies are nice but £3.50 each? "Come on!"
These needs to be an appreciation of bearable expenditure by the club. I am happy to pay reasonable prices i.e. £2.00 for a hot pie or £3.50 with chips but not feel ripped off!!

They had sample pies on offer at the Dunfermline game so maybe there was a favourable reaction from the punters and the Club decided to go with a new supplier?

We stopped going a while back as it was a complete shambles, when Hibs took it back inhouse we decided to give it another chance, however it is even worse than before. We worked out that our group over a season spent around £2000 in there, complained to Rod Petrie, Fank Dougan etc but nothing improved. We are now members of the Edinburgh City Social Club (old Loch Inn) and noticed a few BTG regulars in there yesterday as well.

Thought the pies were not very good on Saturday and there was nothing for kids. They should have burgers, hot dogs and pizzas for the kids in there. Hope its not going to be like that every week now.

Always best to have something before or after the game. I'm all for giving the club more funds. But not if i'm being ripped off for a basic pie and a small handful of chips, especially when the standard isn't that good.

There should be no food behind the goals - only encourages the seagulls...

Club is running this side of things now so no-one else to blame here.
I'd stopped going last season because of poor service but thought I'd give them a change on Saturday to redeem themselves - Sorry to say but even worse than last season. The circa £20 I spend on a matchday on drinks and food will continue to be spent elsewhere I'm afraid.

Slagging off BTG seems to be a popular pastime on Net. I don't go every week but when I do its always very busy so surely it can't be bad as its being portrayed on here.
The other big plus factor of going there is of course that the income will go to Hibernian FC.

I think they are just trying to offer a better alternative to the bog standard pie, pizza and chips you get in the ground. Plenty of people moan about the poor quality of the food in the ground and I'm guessing they've limited control over that so this is their way of offering something better quality.
Not saying they've got it perfect but I was quite pleased to see some of the different options on Saturday.
I'm warming to the place, as long as you get there early enough to get a seat it's fine. My only gripe is for the life of me I don't know why they don't buy more pitchers?

Nine quid for pie and chips twice is scandalous.

Wish they would fix the catering below the stands - over priced poor quality stuff I have complained about for a while and nothing's changed.
Like the terrible East tannoy system or lack of one..seems they don't care.
Small differences would make ER even more enjoyable and surprised LD hasn't sorted this out as its been a complaint by the fans for a while.
