Bacchus N4 in Islington

Recientemente visité Leicester Square y decidí comer en The Slug and Lettuce como me lo habían recomendado. El restaurante se veía bien al llegar, pero pronto me decepcionó (¡así como a muchos otros clientes, parece!) Después de ordenar y recibir bebidas y sentarme en mi mesa, escuché a otras personas quejándose del servicio lento y de que algunas opciones en el menú no estaban disponibles ( Pescado y patatas fritas y salchicha y puré siendo dos de ellos). Decidí mirar más allá de estas quejas y hacer mi propio veredicto sin embargo. Al principio me sacaron la comida equivocada, recibí pastel y puré en lugar del pollo ahogado que había ordenado, aunque esto se solucionó en unos minutos. Mi comida, sin embargo, era tibia y poco apetecible, los guisantes eran duros y apenas calientes. Ni siquiera terminé la comida e incluso fui a Five Guys después de una hamburguesa, ya que no estaba llena debido a que mi comida no era muy agradable. No volveremos pronto No estoy seguro si esto fue solo uno, pero no estaba satisfecho o impresionado! !

There was a lady with blue and grey hair and she was the nicest, charming individual. Made my day.

A Disappointing Experience I usually enjoy Pret, but this morning’s visit was far from pleasant. I ordered an Earl Grey tea, requesting it white and lukewarm. What I received was essentially a cup of milk with barely any tea flavor. Hoping to salvage it, I asked for a second tea bag to strengthen the flavor. Instead of accommodating this simple request—given that they’d already overdone the milk—I was charged an additional amount just for the tea bag. I found this appalling, as they could have easily rectified their mistake without nickel-and-diming the customer. Even with two tea bags, it still tasted like milky water. Truly shocking for something as basic as a cup of tea. To make matters worse, the staff didn’t seem to care that I was unhappy with my order. The lack of concern added to the poor experience. And if that wasn’t enough, the state of the premises was disappointing too. The walls are visibly dirty, with grime climbing up them, which makes for a very unpleasant atmosphere. Overall, an absolutely dreadful visit. Pret, you need to do better.

Proper pub with decent prices. The breakfasts are tasty and the pints good. On a weekend there is no food service, which is a bit disappointing, but the atmosphere is good and the staff welcoming. Near to Kings Cross too so great for a quick breakfast and a cheeky pint before a journey.

Average spoons. Staff good. Beer Average.
