On arrival, told to sit anywhere. 45 mins passed before even being asked about drinks. Had to ask for menus and seemed most things “weren’t available”. The food that “was ready” still took another 45 mins to arrive, with zero communication until then. Decent portion sizes, fairly well presented. However, the whole tray was just dropped on our table while the staff wandered off to laugh with their friends. A little while later the barmaid came to (literally) chuck some cutlery on the table, along with some dirty looks. Literally treated like we weren’t welcome. Staff mostly disappeared, and we had to follow them around to ask for the bill. The barmaid seemed to think the place/her job was beneath her. Scowling and sucking her teeth upon being asked if we could pay. Bill didn’t reflect the prices on the menu, she threw the card machine at us then wandered off again to take a phone call. Waited for a receipt to print but nothing happened (and she wasn’t around to ask for one) so checked on the card machine and there were various options for getting a receipt. Started typing my email address as it asked for, at which point she returned and got mad? For some reason? Asked what the hell I thought I was doing and when I said the machine asked me for my email for receipt she barked that I could have just asked her for one (how could I when she wasn’t there?!). I was taken aback and apologised, but she sucked her teeth again and rolled her eyes, really scowling! Like wth was her problem? Everything else could be overlooked, but that woman just ruins the place completely. Never going there again.
