Cadburys World?

Anyone up for it? Its basically a tour of the factory and a bit of a museumy thing with lots of free chocolate.

Cost is about £10 and the place is just south of Birmingham.

I wouldn't bother with Cadbury World itself - I wouldn't recommend anybody spend any money on the 'tour' - even the free chocolate only amounted to 2 or 3 bars of aero/ crunchies etc

The tour consisted of a walk round the back passages of the factory - the only chocolate we got to see at the time was bars of wholenut getting wrapped - oh, and the one-tonne solid lump that made it into the guinnes book of records.

Definately left the site feeling let down and completely underwhelmed. It also looked like they hadn't spent any money on developing the tour/ show pieces in the last 20 years.

Well I'm up for it! Is that a date then Weasel? Looks like it might just be the two of us Very Happy

I personally thought it was an excellent place for a tenner, but then again I am a geek and always did wonder how they made creme eggs. Embarassed

I used to live about 1 mile from it and never felt the urge to go. Not really a fan of chocolate anyway so will give it a miss.

4 bars of chocolate, I can get that for 99p at the corner shop.

You get 6 bars actually, and besides, that's not the point. It's an interesting day out and don't forget there is the shop where you can buy a massive bag of milk tray rejects for £3 Very Happy

Why is everyone being so negative about it? Where would people prefer to go instead?

Ooo i'll go! Cadbury World is one of my many places that i must visit just to get the delicious, chocolatey, freebie goodness! Razz

Next on my list is Ben & Jerry World, although thats in America somewhere, so that one might have to wait a year or two Sad

Anywho, when were people planning to go to Cadbury world??
