Quick question for the General Information regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?
I was there in 2024 and had a great time but I've heard new venues have opened.
Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?
Cheers
Is General Information worth visiting?

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were lower when I went. Maybe timing matters.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try negotiating next time.
