A pub at Heathrow Airport has been slammed by a traveller for selling what she called a "pathetic" ham and cheese toastie for a whopping £8.50.
Hannah Bennett shared a picture of the uninspiring snack which appeared to show two very dry-looking pieces of bread that look a little short of fillings.
And while the meal served up at Terminal Four's Prince of Wales pub has no garnish of any kind in sight, there is a stick skewering the paltry meal.
Hannah shared images of the dismal creation to the community section of Rate my Plate Facebook page on Friday.
She captioned the post with: “A ham and cheese toastie costing £8.50 at the Prince of Wales pub in Heathrow Terminal four departures.
"Pathetic excuse for a meal."
She added: "Not personally sure what the stick is actually doing as it’s not structural.”
Trevor James wrote under the post saying: “£2.50 for the sandwich £6 for the stick that was hand made by a carbon neutral cooperative of eco farmers”.
Victoria Powell added: “Oh wow. I wouldn't even embarrass myself by serving that! Shame on them. Hope you got a refund”.
Alex Dik Gardner said: “Daylight robbery. Gatwick's not far off the same either”.
Lorraine Hall commented: “Ffs I would have refused it and got a refund.”
Jane Shaw said: “Nasty cheap looking bread. Yuck. £8.50? Jeez”.
Billy Potts added: “You'd get more for your money even on a Ryanair flight. That's a disgrace to be honest”.
There were more complaints on Tripadviser about the pub, which users have given an average three star rating.
Johnfrisbee uploaded pictures of his £16.95 meal, which included two bacon sandwiches for £11.50. As with the toastie, the snack has been speared to no obvious purpose with a wooden skewer.
He wrote: “Which is why The Prince Of Wales pub in Heathrow's terminal 4, lived up/down to our expectations.
"However, we did find the staff friendly, (although over-worked), and our breakfast bacon sandwiches, tea and coffee were fine. Total £16.95.
“It was pretty faultless really, except for the hanging lights above the bar staff, right in front of the TVs”.
A spokesman for The Restaurant Group, which owns the Prince of Wales at Heathrow, said; "W e are disappointed to hear that certain customers were not satisfied with their experience in one of our sites.
"We pride ourselves on value, quality and experience across our portfolio and so we will be looking into these specific comments."
