Excellent mathematical skills displayed right there

It's always the simple fish that take the bait.

Are you serious?

I'm going with 6 friends. They will have to pay me!

By law a Flamming grill has to have at least 500 council houses within 1 mile of it,otherwise they can't get planning permission.[/q

Someone I know who works for Flaming Grill has to go round and count them. He has to knock on the door and ask if they've bought their house.

Very good Probably quite true in lots of areas.

the burger in the pic doesn't look too bad, but then you read the description.
for £6 you get the equivalent of SIX quarter pounders, southern fried chicken fillet, pulled pork, cheese, bacon, onions and then you also get onion rings and double fries. Quite a crazy deal when you think what you get at other places for the same money.

Our local Flaming Grill is full of unquestionables hanging around inside and out with heavy smoking ,bad language and fighting which puts a lot of people off from going in.
Probably the usual for an outer City area pub but quite off putting these days.

20% off each meal.............so for two it's 40%.......so go with 4 friends then it will be 100% off.. simples

I usually prefer homemade.

Seems overpriced but the picture does look pretty good.

Things like this truly annoy me. Gluttons gorging themselves on absurd amounts of bad food for 'sport', to the point of being wheeled off to the local hospital expecting to be cared for by the state when their hearts have had enough. No wonder the NHS is on its knees.

​I have stated on at least one occasion that these 'food challenges' are part of the problem, which they are. They celebrate blatant and unnecessary overindulgence of unhealthy types of food, which in turn establishes the belief in some that this kind of thing is ok, which it isn't.

By stating that the NHS is on it's knees within this context, you're implying that it is mostly due to the people who get heart conditions specifically from eating these kind of meals from pubs like these. That is the "extent" I was referring to. I respect your opinion but I can't agree with you saying that these restaurants openly encourage these challenges. Specifically because there is a lot more on offer on the menus and people still have a choice. I've been to Flaming Grill pubs quite a few times and I hardly see people actively ordering those meals and then still finishing them.

I do, however, agree with your statement regarding people paying for their private healthcare and the fact that the NHS is inundated with patients who have made the wrong choices.

What extent did I allude to? Show me my exact words.
So are you saying that pubs offering challenge meals aren't part of the problem? As bad as they are, at least fast food outlets aren't openly encouraging outright gluttony. Which is a deadly sin for good reason!

Seriously though, if these people pay for their own private healthcare then I don't care what they do to themselves. But the likelihood is that they aren't. So when I see sick people queuing in NHS hospital corridors because there aren't enough beds, then I have a tendency to get a little worked up.

Of course they exist but just not to the extent that you've alluded to. While I agree that the NHS does get taken advantage of by a certain percentage of the population with weight issues, I personally don't think it's due to pubs like this offering "challenge" meals. I'd rather blame the usual fast food places.

​says can't be used with any other offer surely they wouldn't allow you to use both together that's 90% off

And there still seem to be some who haven't cottoned on to the joke!

Mind you, I've often thought there are many HUKD readers who come here for deals 'cos they can't work them out for themselves. UK edukation has lots to anser for.

I can imagine! See it doesn't matter as much in America because if they choose to debilitate themselves then they have to pay for their own healthcare!

I won't tell you about my trip to the Heart Attack Grill in Vegas then :laughing:

What?

I never said you were. Are you implying that people like this do not exist? or that restaurants like this do not take advantage of their weak will to make a quick quid?

great deal !

It would appear that you are.

Did a burger and chips bully you as a child?

Thanks op, I managed to eat one of these but will have something else, it was just too much.

Good value for money indeed. I have tried this one before and almost finished it haha.

This offer is for any food by the way ,not just the challenge btw .In our flaming grill they don't do the challenge just the food in it

Oh really? Thanks I hadn't realised that. I'll have to give it a go sometime then.....sitting there belching and squirming, drinking pepto bismol from the bottle, sleeplessly rolling about in bed like a bloated sweaty mess, frequent and unpleasant visits to the throne throughout most of the next day......sounds like such a rush.

OHHH FFS! Thank you for pointing that out! :smiley:

will be going to Bridgewater Arms next week I think :smiley:
had my reservation for NYE cancelled due to the fact it got flooded on boxing day :disappointed:

only valid mon-thurs

nowt wrong with the maths in this

amazing timing, just planned a visit on Friday to the Leeds branch :smiley: Thanks OP

never finished the burger but I did complete the steak and chips challenge :smiley:

photo on the wall and everything :wink:

I hate to break it to you but some things that are bad for you are fun.

How is eating massive amounts and putting unnecessary stress on the digestive and circulatory systems 'fun'?

The deal itself is sound, I'm talking about restaurants that advertise gluttonous food challenges.

I think for the majority of the population it's a bit of fun once in a while, as it should be.

You'd be surprised. I have a friend who does it quite regularly (in competition with his brother) and posts videos of his conquests to youtube and facebook. Winds me right up.

That's a bit dramatic, I don't think people make a habit of this sort of thing.

These deals were perfect when I gave up smoking. Unfortunately now my belly is 6" bigger, but still a good deal.

Great deal!! Even when this challenge cost £10 you get excellent value for money. At £6 you really can't go wrong (except potential heart attacks!) My fella has completed this twice now...looks like he may be going for a third time :wink:

You are the worsed kind of person.

Can you just buy one and share it, still getting discount?.

Jeez, that is one hell of a burger!.

I've got no chance of finishing it but it looks like value for money.

It's always the simple fish that take the bait.

I was referring more to your maths ability...

I was quite wrong in my previous post................. you only need to take 3 friends

There are worse ways to go

Yeh - pay for your funeral

I'm going with 6 friends. They will have to pay me!

Not bad for the price.

Ive done the challenge a few times (mainly because it tastes so good )

Great deal. Also worth remembering 50% off food at Flaming Grill for Gourmet Society Card holders.
