London Live: Hyde Park

Bad overpriced 3.00 for chips 2.00 for a water 5.00 for an beer there are free screens in the park where you can bring your own food here to make cash and profit out you there is a smell which makes you sick you cant sit on thefloor as the smell cones from there and sitting is limitted every stall wants to sell you sonething you dont need and the free water is well hidden and to top it of a nice man will check your bag and throw your stuff away and if you can get to a screen you here the next screen if you want to spend noney on nothing and smell than this is for you

Expensive to get in, but once you're there at least the food and drink are free. Vegan options are OK but the zero-alcohol wine was actually grape juice.

Good free event - yea food is crap and overpriced but entry is free :) BT customers get VIP ate which is fab - I thoroughly enjoyed been twice and may go again

Ok - so the food and drink is overpriced, but the screens are big and the bands are mostly free. I went to see Rebecca Fergusen on Tuesday and there were no queues at all and we did not have guaranteed entry tickets. I did not find the security checks over the top. It took only a few seconds.

Rubbish. Revolting over priced food. Noise from each screen interfering with the other. We left after 20 minutes !

Entrance security checks worse than at airports! They go through every single item in your bag and expect explanations even on clothing items. If you happen to carry a drink or cream or other cosmetics, let alone a lighter or tools or similar, expect to have to give them up in case you are still interested in this nonsense.

Very good. There are tents and screens to add to the fountains and beautiful scenery. You can circumnavigate the full path and its all pleasure. Serpentine is sublime at this time of year. Makes one proud to be in London during the olympic year 2012

So poor! Just a bunch of screens, two tents for BT and Cadburys to promote their gear and lots of food stalls and beer tents. Nothing fancy whatsoever. Can't take food or drink in so prepare to give arm and leg for it inside. Really tacky

Jolly good British fun – will head back tomorrow with an extra woolley pully for the colder evenings. Perfect atmosphere to support Team GB – was able to rest my weary legs!!

Afterwork drinks in the park – all for free. Amazing!! Only thing letting us down is the weather, but I still found a tree to shade me from the drizzle, a deckchair to watch the sport, and all close enough to the bar to drink my fizzy wine. British summer spirit!!
