The not so Special Offer

Had a very enjoyable Mother’s Day lunch at Pizza Express in Jesus Lane, Cambridge on Sunday. Happily paid the bill without checking (I’m far too trusting). As we were leaving I overheard somebody else questioning their bill.

So, when I had a moment, I checked mine. Clearly Pizza Express were enticing customers in with a Special Offer, three course meal for £16.95 and then not discounting the items which they charged at full price.

It rather spoils the experience – they even charged for the allegedly free glass of prosecco for my wife!
