2025: General Discussion

[Dave]

I can see the logic of merging retail with rides but surprised Lego and Thorpe also merge F&B as there is a fair bit of food hygiene training involved, and having three areas of training for effectively minimum wage roles seems odd.

It will be intresting if these changes improve the park or make it worse.

I think it'll be absolutely no difference to visitors.

Aramark staff the F&B side of the parks

They don’t staff everything at Thorpe for certain as not everything is controlled by Aramark

The other outlets at Thorpe are generally staffed by Pineapple company, who also run the chocolate fountain stand at Towers. I think anything else is outsourced by Aramark to other companies.

Don’t think Thorpe staff themselves run any of the food outlets.

So what you're saying is, even Thorpe won't touch Aramark with a barge pole?
