Not sure any venue is worthy. It's pre-packed rubbish at best. Jamie Oliver urgently required.

If I recall, the Surrey Cricketers used to serve up a pretty mean curry.

Worse food venue remains the The Harp in West Croydon. One night in 2004 for a league cup match they put out what can only be described as a tray of half cooked bones (probably some dead dog). The 'bones' were decorated and presented with some raw white onions. Was an awful experience.

BTW, I have only ever witnessed Dave 'Truey' Truan in 15 years of playing pool in the Croydon league divulge once in the ''food'' at a pool match. He once devoured one chip and took one bite of chicken leg. Both items were consumed funny enough at the Folly. For being able to tempt him into eating pool match grub - the Folly will get my vote on that achievement alone!
