sr2008 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I booked the Strongbow Lounge for myself and my Old man this week for the Ross County game, it was £72 a head. We did the same for Livi at home last season, I think it may have gone up around £10 this season but really enjoyed it last season. Drink not included but quick service and we only wanted a few, food before the game was good and lounge nice. They take your drinks order for half time too and food at half time decent too. Maybe a little over priced but worth it for a good day out. Seats were decent too, in section S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwidoug Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I don't think I'm stingy but if I paid that for a game against Celtic, I'd expect a 3-0 win to be included in the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pagey Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I was in the Heritage Lounge for the United game and think the price was around the same amount. Fork buffet was minuscule portions and drinks not included. Was a nice lounge, well done out with Premium seats but wasn't what I expected on the food front. Eat before you go!1 Also the wallpaper had the badge with Heart of Mid-lothian which I though was odd. Is that right with the hyphen?

kimosavi Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Hospitality is an absolute no brainer. The top one with free drink and meal is brilliant Tried my 1st one 3 years ago and got hooked immediately when my father in law took me to one Even the cheaper one's are great value Hearts are light years away from other SPL sides when it comes to hospitality.

jamboiain13 Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I always wonder whether the club could offer a discounted price on hospitality to ST holders. Since we have already bought our seat why would the inclusion of a match ticket be needed in the package. Just saying as it puts me off a little when I consider maybe trying out the experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tian447 Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I've been in hospitality in the Gorgie Stand thanks to the JKB Christmas Cracker, and it was absolutely superb! The food was good, table service with drinks included, and the atmosphere was cracking. Plenty of entertainment pre and post match, and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again on my own buck (we did win 2-0 which probably helped, but it was a brilliant experience) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AB said at a previous shareholders meeting that she acknowledged the fact that previously you got a discounted price for hospitality if you were a season ticket holder, but until we are solidly back in the black, they would continue to coin in as much as possible! Btw the Gorgie is excellent. Vague recollections of the matches including the Relegation Party, Juanma 2.0 Aberdeen match, and the come back 2.2 via The Rangers, amongst others...

BackOfTheNet Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I’ve done various hospitalities. There are many positives and few negatives. For instance the Gorgie Suite has the included drink, 3 course meal and for my money Scott Wilson really makes it worthwhile, he’s a great host and hilarious. Usually there’s a couple of legends and the two man of the match recipients collect their champagne from the sponsors so if you want you can meet them and get a photo etc. Downsides would be the seating (for what you’re paying you’d expect better seats than behind the goals - and once we had to walk half way across the stadium to the other end due to overbooking) and what sticks in my throat is the way they rush you out. They say in the ‘what’s included’ that you get 1 hour post match in the lounge. By 30 mins in they’re telling you to drink up, and if you stick around to the 45 min mark expect security folk (different ones) at 2 minute intervals trying to force you up out of your seat. Always leaves a sour taste after what is usually a great day out. I’ve also done the heritage and legends lounges, drink isn’t free but the seating is good. The fork buffet was actually better than I expected, usually a beef stew. I was expecting a few wee pies so that was good for me. Allows you to grab a seat and enjoy a beer before, at half time and post match without having to walk to your pub of choice. I try and do hospitality once a year, but sometimes the price is too much for the Gorgie - if they had better seats or gave ST discounts it’d be a no brainer - so the other ones can do nicely.

hoof.hearted Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Would do hospitality more often (only do cup ties) but grudge paying twice as have a season ticket. Believe that you should get a little incentive if you have a season ticket, even fifteen quid off or something. Hearts used to buy back your seat for the game and re sell but not any more. My mate gave up his season ticket a few years back as he does hospitality half a dozen times or so each season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me its, no having to rush down the road for kick off, necking pints, getting to a toilet etc in the build up. just having getting settled early, and some comfort before and after a game. The atmosphere and scott wilson especially are top drawer honestly. Some take it to the extreme bevvy wise but there's never any bother or steamers.

The deals for the League Cup games are one off reduced price, it’s £60 plus VAT for all league games aside from Hibs this season which is £65 plus VAT. it feels more expensive than last season and possibly a bit over priced but we It once or twice a season and neither of us are massive drinkers so wouldn’t get the value out the Gorgie Suite (which I would agree having been a few times is excellent) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire_At_The_Disco Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Love the Gorgie, last time we were there we were sat at a table with 2 brikies, they pay their 2 grand a season and love the fact they can be on it for 3 hours pre kick off, have some great food and watch the game. The secret after the game is to order 3 rounds rapid as the service winds down quick! Scott Wilson is absolutely brilliant as host and the players and ex players are all up for photos and banter. Great day out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briacasa Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Went to the Executive European Lounge for the Hamilton game on Boxing Day last year - myself and my mate both turned 50 so we treated ourselves.

Your lad will love it. My lad said. Can we do it every week. I replied to him. Only if you're paying. If you do this. Your brownie points will go through the roof with him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
