£8 a hot dog as an example.
New Edmiston House to open Saturday
- Thread starter Laudrups Barnet 55
- Start date
I know it’s unreal. These are like the people at your work who moan about everything. Mood killers.
See the people moaning about pricing of food and drink. Have you ever actually been out the house?
It’s reasonably priced for both food and drink in comparison to almost all pubs and restaurants. It’s actually cheaper than a lot of event places too!!

Aye people going to games 8 quid a hot dog in a half finished venue after spending there hard earned cash
People have right to give opinions or do we clap clap
So we should charge less because it’s a football related venue?
It’s an entertainment venue, which in comparison to others is very good. With spot on pricing.

I would agree if the full venue was finished mate
What bands are gonna play there 1300 people
Serious question mate
As someone said above, it’s the same capacity as the old ABC which had plenty.
For me “events” will be a far bigger thing.
All club related dinners etc. which used to be held in hotels can now be done here.
I would imagine @Phantom Jack wouldn’t have a problem doing a gig in here, or Nathan Evans or Callum Beattie.
I think it’s going to be a great addition.

Bands that are up and coming and need a smaller capacity.
There is not many in Glasgow to chose from except one or two so will be heavily used i think

Phantom jack said it looks shit
Does it mean they won’t ever play at it?
They stood and sang on a scaffolding to fans at the back of the Copland Stand last season.
If anything i thought it would be more expensive haha. I’m surprised at the drink prices was expecting dearer

That size of venue for the music scene is hugely popular. There is a reason they made it this size. Comparisons were done to other venues around Glasgow and what was in demand. This size came up. As others have said it is the same size as ABC 1 which is sadly no more. Some great bands and artists played there over the years. King Tut's is 300 in comparison.

Bollocks is it. When the outdoor fanzone was on earlier in the year, several of the vans were a fiver a go for hot dogs and pretty decent ones at that. £8 is a rip-off. It’s not the Hydro!

It's £6.20 for a pint of Madri in a new local pub that's opened along the road from me!
That makes perfect sense.

I think its opening being announced so late was an indicator that things were probably a bit rushed.
It's a positive then that from comments on here it sounds like there were few/none of the teething problems we might have expected on a first day - good signs for the new management and staff.
I'd imagine as they find their feet they'll probably increase the number and scale of activities offered and that's when they'll run into the venue capacity issues or some of those will have to move outside.
Overall overwhelmingly positive. My one concern remains that each element within it is too small, and that the club will realise that when we see the demand.

Supporters club events. Sportsman’s dinners. There’s loads we could host in that space.
No disrespect but I don’t think you get how gigs work. Bands start in small venues and gradually move up to bigger ones. There are loads in that tier of bands who have outgrown King Tuts who can’t yet fill Barrowlands.
At the moment only the QMU can cater for them
just need to look at how heavily the ABC was used. A quick look here will show you the kind of bands who played there.

NEH very similar to Liverpool one
Garage only holds 700, Classic Grand less than that.
SWG3 fair enough but i don't know anyone who likes it as a venue, it's also usually got an early curfew due to club nights after.
Valley Bluenose
RTV? Completed it mate!
Main Hall at The Garage holds just 700 according to Wiki. Dunno about the other venues. Is SWG3 warehouse not around 500? EDIT: SWG3 Galvanisers and TV Studio are more of a similar size to NEH.
I don’t drink beer at all, the introduction of Dark Fruits was brilliant for me a few years back! Was always 2 vodkas to everyone’s pint on a night out
Loads of people drink it now and most places have it in draft.

Glad to see the opening went smoothly and the offers seem to be fair. The prices are cheaper than I thought - I’ve been looking at some of the posts and Bears need to realise that it’s not the local golf or bowling club.
Let’s get this into perspective - we were off the back of 80 million worth of losses before this year’s small profit. We’ll be in profit in next year’s accounts. The board are investing behind the scenes in NEH, blue sky lounge and disabled facilities as well as stadium maintenance. We need to be much more positive about this and get behind it.

Looks good from the pictures and videos. It's great to have a place for supporters to go before and after the game.
When you look at the American sports stadiums it is something they excel at. We'd never be able to do it at that scale but having New Edmiston House and the new Sports bar when it comes will be great.

I understand the fan zone part is only open on match days, but have they released the opening times for the shop / cafe? Had a look online but can’t confirm.

Be daft not to. It's a cracking venue, much better than I expected.

Plenty of decent sized, well-known bands in that list, that would get 1000 folk coming to see them, particularly if they weren’t also playing Edinburgh.

I prefer lager myself, but I think the fruity cider drinkers vs traditional cider drinkers is often an age thing.
