Newlyweds accused of dodging hotel's £1.5k food bill as cops called to deal with buffet battle

A bitter buffet row has erupted after a hotel claimed two newlyweds left their venue without paying the £1,550 food bill.

Management at Town House hotel in Durham have publicly named and shamed the couple, who tied the knot this week. But Clare Nattrass, 57, and Joanne Robinson, 49, say they will pay for the "miserable" wedding meal once the total has been reduced because they didn't get what they asked for.

They want £200 taken off because they say they didn't get the promised ribs or mini burgers as they also claim they weren't told about a corkage fee, the Mirror reports. The couple also said hotel staff removed the food just half an hour after putting it out with 30 guests forced to go hungry.
