I popped out this evening to get a bite to eat from said crappy hotel I happen to be staying at.
I choose a restaurant that had about six tables full out of about 15. It was around 8.15 and I could see at least five staff.
Firstly I walked in and wasn't greeted. I stood for a few minutes, before eventually I was clocked and got to choose a table. A bit of banter with the waitress as I sat down and I got the menu.
And that was about it. I waited. And waited. A couple of staff cleared some tables. I was texting a friend but yet still no server. I tried to get someone's eyeline. Now only three tables left. One server sat at the bar, back to me. Then another, then the next until all five were chatting away. I texted my friend that the service was tulipe.
Should I get up? I was too far away to shout and one busy table was left. Feck it, I'm not getting up.
I then googled the number of the restaurant and rang it. I'd now been sat for 15 minutes.
'Hi I'm the chap on the front table can I get a server?' She the approached the five servers who all turned looking in my direction. But still no one came. I then waved at them. No one came until one person eventually came over sheepishly. 'Did you want to order with a weak apology'
I then found that my first dish they had run out of, then the second and then two wines I ordered.
Feck it. I got up and left. A weak sorry from the greeter.
So that's a terrible I will be leaving on Tripadvisor later. Any good comments I should leave?
What's your worst restaurant service?
