During a recent shopping trip to the Merry Hill Centre in Dudley I popped into the Abraham Darby, owned by Wetherspoon, for a quick drink and a snack to eat.

I opted for the Vegetarian Panini which was supposed to be Mature Cheddar Cheese and Tomato Club and which was priced at £ 4.09.

When it arrived, together with a bit of side salad and when I had my first bite out of it and couldn’t taste any cheese or tomato I opened it up to have a closer look at it.

What a surprise!

The tomato was a slice not thicker than 2 milimeters and the Mature Cheddar Cheese must have been brushed on whilst it was melted as there was no sign of it; it just looked like a buttered piece of bread with a red circle in the middle.

It was the most skimpy and meagre Panini I ever had and most certainly not worth £ 4.09, a Pound would have been too much.

I realise that times are hard at the moment and pubs are suffering in line with the retail trade but this Panini was an insult and I most certainly will never have another bite to eat in any of the Wetherspoon pubs if that’s the best they can offer and I would urge all the visitors to this website to do likewise.

This meal was simply a rip-off. Go elsewhere if you want value for money or have a look at it before you eat it and send it back and ask for your money back
