i went to see skyfall
i complained to a pub about their truly shocking service, and they offered us a free meal. i have replied to say thank you very much but we were after an apology not free stuff. however, as they are offering, they can donate the cost of 3 main courses and 3 drinks to charity, say £30-40.

what's the betting they come back and say "fuck you, our pre-made frozen meals cost us 50p each, so we don't want to do that" ...

Good luck getting money out of them. They're in the shit financially.

the one we complained about was a fucking fiasco
neither of the unfortunate bar staff spoke a word of english and we had to point at the drinks. they couldn't understand the food menu, nor could they find the items on the till. when they did enter them, they kept pressing cancel and then having to ask us to order all over again - it took 25 mins to order 1 starter and chips and 2 pies. the bill seemed a bit top heavy, but i'd lost the will to live by then. i felt v sorry for the staff as not one senior or experienced team member was anywhere in sight.

when the food finally came, i got 2 identical starters and no chips, which explained the higher bill, and my friend got the wrong pie, and had to wait 20 mins for a new one. our second round of drinks never came. the final straw was on the way out, when the manageress suddenly appeared, and told me i couldn't leave because i'd only paid for one starter.... i am normally v polite, but that was just too much!

That's a good value meal there.

the fullers on brook green is amazing, even for a snobby chick like me
but some of them are proper shit

I should clarify, I didn't mean that all Fullers did good value meals,
just that a main meal and a drink for a tenner is pretty good value. Assuming it's a reasonable meal obviously.

their mains are about £10-£15 i think
i didn't want to take the piss. but i think they should give the money to charity.

i also know they won't.

I once made the mistake of ordering a 'sausage platter' in one of theirs.
I would rather be buggered by an angry bear than eat that again.

I tend to find the better London pubs are operated by Geronimo Inns or the Real Pub Company.
Certainly better food.

their apology was the free meal.
