    I think the big difference between Trinity and HoH is their respective locations. HoH is at the end of town where nothing else is aimed at the same crowd. People who are going to Sports Direct and St Stephens typically aren't the demographic who are interested in sitting in HoH for a coffee or some more expensive, higher quality food. I wish it wasn't the case, but not many well off people get the bus into town. They drive in and park at the marina end and stick to the marina and old town, including Trinity Market.

    Really busy midweek to though with workers from town.
    Much easier for quick service and cheaper prices for a quick lunch mind you

    I'm not so sure about that, I only park round the Marina/Old Town if I'm going specifically to eat round there, otherwise I always park at St Stephens and I suspect I'm exactly who they're trying to attract (at least with regard to their initial format).

    I mostly agree, but at the same time you’ve got Hull Truck, Bonus, City Hall and the New Theatre all a very short walk away from Hammonds.

    It should be a default place to grab something quick and easy to eat before hand, but it’s clearly not. Surely there’s a deal to be done with at least three of those places to get more punters in?

    It’s never marketed itself as a pre-show option. Why not?

    We know you are affluent but surely they can't survive just off your occasional patronage.

    You seriously thought I was suggesting that I was the only person they were trying to attract?

    Of course you didn't, you're just being a cock.

    Twice.

    Maybe if you had written you were the sort of person…Then you wouldn’t be open to people coming out with these remarks. Of which someone else responded first. You like to be a smartarse with others but really have a hissy fit when someone pulls you up on anything.

    Did you seriously think I thought you were suggesting that? Of course you didn’t, you’re just being a cock.
