Review of ExCel

12 Oct 07, 18:32

Great Space dissapointing Food. 2*

I recently went to a two day expo at Excel and was really amazed by the impressive space. It was really airy and accommodated the large amounts of people well.It was also quite picturesque, located in the heart of London's old docklands - overlooking the Thames. It also had some great staff that were all really helpful and friendly when providing directions etc.

However the thing that really lets this place down is the companies that they have let provide food within the conference centre. The prices were bordering on robbery and the quality was poor. Companys that I have eaten from outside of the centre were serving second rate food for double the money.

All the food was over salty and this was a really good ploy, as it subsequently meant you spent the rest of the day purchasing drinks.

Great concept and space, lovely staff but terrible food services.

Best thing about where I live It is very close to London. It also has a lot of has trams and trees!
Worst thing about where I live It's not London and sometimes it's scary. It also has the most boring hight street ever known to man.
