The simple process of going to the pub has been made off-putting by the bizarre, compulsory, card activated membership, which is invasive and unnecessary. I assume it's to help security, but I resent the data mining and red tape. It's cheap food and drinks, no doubt, but it was quite obvious to see where corners were cut. The soup was delicious, but the sausages were of cheap quality and too fatty, and the mash was bland. Despite having the interior of a friendly pub, I found it quite impersonal; the card thing put me off, but also it's huge and feels really commercial.
