    Thanks for the list!

    Not a very good wine selection, in fact for the first time ever I don't really like any of them. How is suddenly the dessert now for 4 people when most are the same as the ones for 2 people?? Yes some are more than enough for 2 but for 4 adults some of these are really stretching it.

    Might be larger versions for this dine in deal.

    2 x Elderflower Presse

    Is the Elderflower Presse non-acoholic?

    Can I ask where you got the list?

    They normally have orange juice:(

    Sounds like the normal deal to me only Five quid more, another one on the Mothers day band wagon then.
    We are the change we wish to see.

    Hopefully!! Would rather pay £20 and get two bottles of wine (or one alcoholic and one alcohol free, etc.,) and an extra side order as one bottle isn't going to do four of us, etc., think the dine in for £10 seem better value and would have got two of those instead.

    I agree!
    I thought this was supposed to be for four?
    When they say 2 apple crumbles do they mean full size? because those little microwave ones are definately not going to feed four :(

    i was gonna ask the same thing, as normally the profiterole stack is on a meal for 2 deal. now i know its huge and really does feed 4 people (if not being too greedy), but i too feel that theyre being abit tight lol

    I would think the person who posted the list of food for Mother's Day dine-in offer probably works in the M&S Food section or knows someone who works there. They will have prior knowledge of the deal because of the prep needed to change fridge ends,etc and promo decor which has to be organised so the stylists/vms will know what on offer as well. Most food hall staff will know.

    As long as you are there early you should get what meals you are looking for, but not all stores get all the stock or may have limited supplies.

    The Elderflower Presse will be for the non-drinkers.

    M&S plan well ahead, if it is for 4 people then the desserts for 4 people will have been sorted out with suppliers months ago.
