I have never been to Station Pub before, ended up there on a bit of a whim. Sat next to a table where the one patron was talking excessively loudly to the people she was with; ended up moving as it was unbearable. I wanted to get something which involved spinach and butternut as a side, and was then told by the waiter that she "isn't sure they have vegetables". It's a Friday evening in December, surely you must be prepped for this? So I ended up getting just a plain beef burger, which cost R145. The food that I received was absolutely not value for money, more like what I would pay for a R90 burger. I have paid R145 for a burger at restaurant and got much better quality. The salad was a measly few leaves, small bit of feta and a drizzle of salad dressing. The burger was literally the bun, a bit of leaves and the patty. This was accompanied by some chips. I think it's horrendous that they want to charge R145 for that - they probably paid R30 at most to make it. When I politely brought this up with the manager, and explained I really think this not the value for money, he said he would talk to the owner. Owners response: that's our prices and that's how it is. Very unimpressed, I will certainly never go back there. The others around my table had pizza and those prices seemed to match the quality of the food, so if you ever go, get a pizza and not a burger, it's not worth it. Also, ordered a bottle of wine which was out of stock, but got a different one. Once the bill came, both wines were on the bill, so had to ask the waiter to rectify it, after which she took ages to come back so we could pay. So overall just poor service, bad value, and bad attitude...

Received absolutely horrible service yesterday. We were seated at a table that was dirty & very sticky. We then moved to a table right in front of where the band was performing. We sat for nearly 20 minutes and no on came to get our drinks order. Also when the band wasn't performing the music was extremely loud. Especially since we were seated in front of the speakers. I stood up and asked the waitress if the background music can be turned slightly lower since no one is performing & we can't hear anyone talking. Her reply is No, the music is always like that?! I understand when someone is performing that music needs to be loud. But when they just playing instrumentals in the background why does it need to blaring loud?! To be quite honest this waitress has absolute no etiquette with regards to working customers. I understand its a pub, but expected some level of customer service, but received none... Also it seems there is a resident dog that kept jumping against friends leg and was scratching her. When we told this same waitress about it, she just shrugged it off. I understand it's a dig friendly environment, but why are dogs off of their leashes. Our dog came along & was on leash not being an inconvenience to anyone. We then decided to get up and leave and that created an even bigger altercation... Let's say we went down the road to Hey Joe & received the most loveliest service & amazing food... Rather visit Hey Joe instead of Station...
