Impressive venue , downside was rude waitress who essentially interrogate us for not ordering on the app after she wrote down our order and said she would bring our drinks. After waiting 20 minutes without our drinks appearing she approaced our table asked why we hadn't used the app to order, and after we (unnecessarily) apologised as we were confused by her actions in writing our order down. When she asked what was confusing (rude) we said we were merely tired from being at a wedding the night before. She then said that she was tired because she had been working until 2 a.m. the previous night, and partying was no excuse? It was almost comical how rude she was, especially since our group's order was a simple one (3 shandies, a bloody mary and a ginger beer) and that she had taken our order after SHE had said that the bar was having issues with the app. After another staff member brought our friend's shandy out as a separate half pint and lemonade, I changed my order on the app as it was clear the staff were inexperienced. I don't mind inexperience, every new staff member has to learn on the job, but this woman's rudeness was something we hadn't encountered in bar service before. After lecturing us that she was more tired than we were after we apologised for being confused by her confusing behaviour was more than a tad bizarre. Other than that, it's a nicely put together bar in a nice spacious building near the Greenwich DLR stop, with drinks priced at a standard rate...
Read moreNot great at all. I had high expectations after seeing the reviews. We visited for Easter Sunday and it was dead, this should’ve explained a lot. There was no lamb on the menu after it had sold out…this happens. Our waitress was initially very friendly. The staff all seemed extremely stressed and very blunt. We were often for long amounts of time without drinks because the table staff weren’t attentive enough. The food took forever to arrive. The mains were luke warm and the beef, well it was so flat and dry I could only describe it like an old flip flop! We mentioned the temperature of the food, she said she would let the chef know…I’m sorry, but any decent front of staff would offer to reheat the food or at least take a portion off the bill!
Pro’s were…gravy, potatoes, chicken and veg.
Wine was nice but very overpriced.
Overall we were very disappointed with our experience. The waitress became rather rude and sarcastic in the end. Surprising after we gave here a compulsory tip of £55.
Needless to say, we won’t be returning again. No wonder...
Read moreOur visit to Davy's restaurant on Monday 20/3 was a disappointing one. Despite being a party of 7, including 3 children, our food arrived at staggered intervals. The kids' meals took over 45 minutes to arrive, and the burgers took an hour. The ladies' 3-course meal deal took more than 1.5 hours to be served, and my wife even received her starter and main together. We had to call the waiter several times to follow up on our order, and at one point, they even brought us the bill instead of our food.
The whole experience was tiring and made us feel unwelcome. It wasn't even a busy night, so we were disappointed that we had to wait so long for our food. We ordered a bottle of wine, but the staff didn't check on us or try to make our experience better. We were even prepared to order more wine, but they never came back to our table.
The kids were bored and hungry, and it wasn't easy to contain them. Although Davy's restaurant has good reviews, we expected a better experience. We're not sure if we'll return...
