Lunchtime eating at Bisley
Due to multiple changes in circumstances among our little group of 4/5 we're looking to eat lunch on site now after a Sunday am shoot before departing in different directions - anyone bother to do so, and if so any recommendations for best facility to have a meal on site at Bisley....?

Re: Lunchtime eating at Bisley
Well, we've used the Clays cafe, London & Middx, North London, and the NSRA cafe at Lord Roberts...........
The NSRA cafe does the best fry-up, but the ambience is lacking. The Clays has the best ambience, but the fry-up is lacking.
The London & Middx is OK, a bit like a slightly shabby 50's pub. Food can be reasonable, if somewhat limited. They may do a Sunday type lunch (roast)
We had a sandwich and a pint in the North London...........

Re: Lunchtime eating at Bisley
I agree with what pete has stated, although this morning early (saturday) went to the London & Middx for breakfast, everything was only slightly warm, toast was like eating a paving slab, yes I did say about it got a negative reaction. Nothing else was open so you take what you can find. Best place NRSA cafe.Pete wrote:Well, we've used the Clays cafe, London & Middx, North London, and the NSRA cafe at Lord Roberts...........

Re: Lunchtime eating at Bisley
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the Clays Cafe - we go there whenever we are at Bisley except if an early morning we go to the NSRA for a bacon sandwich. None of it is exactly fine dining but certainly adequate. Clays is fine if you like a fry up so don't expect meat and three veg with gravy.

Re: Lunchtime eating at Bisley
I usually lunch in the Clays Cafe, the service is good, the prices reasonable, and a fry up is fine by me. And the menu has expanded a bit recently.ColinR wrote:There is absolutely nothing wrong with the Clays Cafe - we go there whenever we are at Bisley except if an early morning we go to the NSRA for a bacon sandwich.

Careful now/that sort of thing

No clays cafe is at the shot gun shooting range top of the hill near the clock tower. Jenny's is a snack bar to the left & rear of the London & Middx club house.
