So seven of us went to Rhubard for lunch today - I can only describe the experience as abysmal. 4 out of 7 dishes had to be sent back. My blonde friend had a long black hair in her stale wrap with chicken. I had the Avo brunch - stale bread, lukewarm eggs on a bed of tired old bruised tomatoes & onions with a bit of old rocket. The halloumi salad was just as old & the oil from the fried halloumi soaked thru 4 serviettes. The bacon sandwich was inedible - old & I do mean old - bacon soaked in oil & with a green rind - sent back. No condiments were on the table or offered - all had to be requested & then when we asked for olive oil for the dry aged salad - they didn't have any - can you imagine a restaurant cafe with NO OLIVE OIL. The manager couldn't have been less bothered or less friendly. Not once did she come over to apologise for the substandard food or to offer a drink. She seemed more annoyed with our complaint than with the state of the food being sent out by the kitchen. As someone whose worked in the restaurant trade as both a chef and a manager I would have been mortified if any of my customers had experienced such awful food & such poor nonchalant service. When i spoke to the manager she was stroppy instead of sympathetic & when I pointed out that she hadn't even come over to offer an apology, she said well I'm apologising now. Honestly would never ever go back even for a glass of water. Over priced slop!
