After being to Slug and Lettuce 3 weeks earlier in Birmingham I had high hopes for visiting the one in Liverpool for my Hen Do with my close friends and family however I walked away feeling incredibly disappointed. Our table was placed next to the stairs, this meant that we were lucky enough to see & hear every huff, puff & sigh that the waiting staff made as they moped around the venue. It was very disappointing to learn that almost half the menu was also not available for a peak Saturday afternoon timing and when we made an alternative the Fajita Pasta was far too hot & spicy for anybody to handle and the smothered chicken breast was as thin and tasteless as cardboard. We thought we were missing a handful of sides (this was misheard/communicated at the bar - no one’s fault) but when we questioned it we had 2 very abrupt members off staff storm over to the table and spoke down to us asking us if we were in capable of counting to 3. 15 minutes after we received our food & 1 hour before our table reservation ended we were asked 3 times at different places of the table if we were finished and if they could clear our plates away. Astonished we showed them our half eaten food and said that we were not yet finished. These waitresses walked away and returned with 3 ‘reserved’ signs for another party who had a table reservation half an our after ours would’ve finished - 1.5 hours early! After being treated so negatively and feeling rather rushed we decided to leave our table and slug and lettuce all with the view we will not be returning to this particular one.

Very disappointed.
