Ashes fans all make the same joke about lunch menu at The Oval during day two of fifth Test
CRICKET fans have had plenty to say about the lunch menu on offer at The Oval this week.
England are taking on Australia in the Fifth Test of the Ashes.
Fans already know that the urn will be heading back Down Under no matter what happens at The Oval this week.
But they have flocked in regardless, determined to enjoy their day’s play.
Should they want to grab lunch at the venue, they’re in luck if they happen to like duck.
One menu doing the rounds on social media shows a number of food options, all including a variation of the waterbird.
A crispy duck wrap will set fans back £12.50, while a portion of duck fat chips is priced at £5.50.
And a duck platter, including chips, is £15.50 – with dirty duck fries on offer at the same price.
Those that do not eat meat are catered for, with a vegan duck wrap priced at £12.50.
Seeing the menu, one fan joked: “No ducks today please, only when Australia bat. Then 10 would be great..”

While a second quipped: “Let’s hope this isn’t a premonition of the scorecard.”
Others pointed out the lack of variety.
One joked: “I want to have duck, is there duck on the menu?”
While quizzed what they’d have, another added: “Probably duck.”
Many social media users baulked at the prices.
One pointed out: “We’re in the middle of a cost of living pinch yet we still see escalated prices like these. Absolutely disgusting. It would soon stop if everyone just left them alone.”
A second tweeted: “Duck all at those prices.”
Fans were left staggered by the price of other food options at The Oval earlier this week.
Another menu revealed that a lobster and crayfish roll would set punters back £25.
While a crab roll was priced at £18, and a smoked salmon roll £15.
