Aye, but think of the time savings at the bar. They can pour nearly 10 of them in the time it takes to pour 1 normally! They look like fairly decent pints to be fair, decent sized head and not too fizzy, so the valve must sort some of that out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough the club have identifed thet there's enough dafties who'll pay it. When you remove the cost of a hot drink, pie and cake you’re probably talking less than a tenner for access to a private bar before, during and after the game. Quick service and a chance to catch up with your pals without being crammed into a noisy, busy bar. We normally have a pint in hand five minutes before kickoff and five minutes after full time. AND all your beer money going straight to the club. Won’t be for everyone but for me it’s a winner.

The seats are the exact same as the platinum section padded seats, but there is more space between them. They are not bigger.

D4nny_ Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 (edited) On 13/02/2024 at 12:05, Wee Mikey said: Us 3 also. 👍 Mind you, I kinda liked the low-key PR bar for many reasons. It was flawed, but quirky. The new arrangements? Let's wait & see. Having to book in advance, plus the less than perfect Ticketmaster interface? Hmm. It would've been better had I been able to log on, quote our 3 ST Ref numbers and job done rather than each having to do it individually. I'm wondering what the £s will be for any main stand ST holders should the allocation not be taken up by PR ST holders. It looks, at first glance, perhaps a bit of an administrative nightmare. Having to alert Main Stand ST holders etc., etc. Ach, let's wait and see. It'll likely need tweaking but the main thing for me is that it doesn't end up like 'sardines'. I liked the casual nature of the now defunct PR bar. Four of us in there on Sunday too. Agree it looks pretty decent and it’s a nice perk. The booking in advance will be a bit of a nightmare as we used to chop and change at last minute depending on how busy the Ardmillan was. Having said that, they’ve shut the back lounge now to add additional rooms so that’ll be pretty busy / full now I would imagine on match days! Understand why the club are adding a booking system though as they’ll be able to maximise their revenue from it. Looking forward to trying it out.

Aye the Ardmillan are going to build a canopy and add heaters in the beer garden at the back so the kids can still get in. Amanda the manager was saying that on one matchday recently the back bar only took £130 (possibly Dundee game) and they can have three rooms B&B filled most of the time it's probably a no brainer.

bean counter Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I'll probably use this lounge occasionally. I miss the Willie Bauld lounge. This offer at £ 18 per game for 18 games works out at £ 324 on top of your season ticket, which means it may become the new entry level hospitality offer.

Wee Mikey Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 With the Skyline being open for breakfasts and the PR bar open from 12:30 serving food it's looking like a total Tynie day out for us 3 on Sat. If not for being within strolling distance, I would've considered checking out the hotel. I'll leave that for when I re-locate to a West Coast Island bolt-hole. https://www.heartsfc.co.uk/pages/the-skyline-restaurant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
