The Douglas Fir — Restaurant in London

Good place but very confusing opening hours.

They have a sign outside saying they are open every day until 11, but Google says they are closed on a Monday at shut at 10 most nights.

Bizarrely the website seems to list both of the different schedules at different points on the page.

I just tried to go at 10 on a Monday and found them closed so I assume the latter hours are correct.

It's frustrating because one of the reasons I don't go to a lot of the local places is the limited and inconsistent opening hours meaning I never know if they will be open.

The change this place seemed to make to closing at 11 every night and opening every day looked promising but it seems it is not consistent so I now have no idea if they will be open at those times and probably won't bother going.

Edit: Just tried to go on a Friday night at 7pm and they're randomly closed! Everything online suggests they are open and it's bloody Friday... what is...

Nice. They seem to be a bit confused about what rhey are, random drinks don't work. . Good hors d'oeuvres would make the place more appealing as punching above their location with costs of drinks, could include:

Mixed nuts and olives – a classic and tasty nibble. ...

Light crackers, seaweed sheets, thinly sliced cucumber, Belgian endive, sliced radishes, even vegetable chips. ...

Smoked trout on apple slices.

Parmesan chips with creamed anchovies.

Staff non attentive, even when prompted.

Not a couple's place, just a drink off the train kind of bar

If you're desperate for an after work...

Great little place. We called here for drinks on the way to and from a gig at Crystal Palace Park. Not very big but querky and friendly staff. Seems a popular spot with additional seating out the front, but even then not enough room for everyone so lots of people standing. Only one toilet so the queue for that was longer than the bar queue at times. We would definitely go here again if in the area. Didn't try the food so can't give...
