Chat-A-Whyle Restaurant — Restaurant in Town of Bath

Well it was my first time at this place with my family and it was horrible. If I could give a zero star rating I would. We were sat down but one lady that's said our server was gonna be Eric. As he walked by he said he would be right back to get our drink order instead of waiting to see what we wanted. He went over to the next table that sat down after us and took their order. He never came back to take our drink order. Another 2 waitress came over 10min and one took our drink order. After that he brought us our menus and asked to take our drink order, which we told him the lady already had. That was the last we saw of him at our table. They brought back our drinks and we asked the girl what the specials were and she like I dont know and said there was a special board in the other room. So my husband got up to see what was for specialsand took a picture of the board with his phone and was informed by the owner that you can see it on our Facebook. He came back and showed us what was on the specials. Then another waitress her name Amy(we believe this was her name, said she had worked there for 10 plus years) came over after waiting another 10mins to order and actual took our orders of what we wanted. We ask her about the specials and she knew right off the bat what the specials were she was sweet even tho we were already mad about the wait. She takes down what we wanted and took it to the kitchen. We waited 25mins for our food. When I got my meal my Turkey was dry as heck and the mash potatoes were cold. I only had a bit of each thing on the plate. I got up and found the waitress and told her about my food and I was not happy about it at all. She asked if she could get me a all new meal. I was like no thank you. The owner heard me say this to her cause I just sat back down and he brings over a plate of mash potatoes and gravy. He was shoving them in my face saying here is fresh potatoes. I told him I was no longer interested and didnt want them or anything at all. He then stuck his fingers in my original plate of food and said "yeah these potatoes are luke warm." This not only made me very uncomfortable but also very mad. He then started shoving the plate of new potatoes at me again saying they were fresh. I said I was not interested and that I was leaving. I got up and left. He continued to sit and talk to my family. He never once apologized for any of our issues as they discussed them with him. He just kept saying well I brought her new potatoes. He then sat there staring at them while they tried to eat. The waitress took the bill and took my meal off it. We were not pleased. The rest of the food was the right temperatures but my family said it did not taste very good. My mother in laws sandwich was bland and overcooked and my sister in law didnt even get to eat hers there as she had to get it to go because it took so long to be served hers. The little girl that my sister in law watches got the hot dog little kids meal and the hot dog was very dark like it had been over cooked. Overall was a very bad experience and we wont be going back, even though the owner did give us a gift card for $15.75(the cost of a...

Three strikes and the Chat-A-Whyle is out. I really did not want to go in but I had missed my bus and had a 2 hour wait for the next one. It was morning, far too early for Pizza Delight to be open, so after having been alienated by the place the other 2 times I had come, I thought, "maybe the third time's a charm" and decided to give it one more try. Big mistake. Big, big mistake.

The first time I went in there, about a year ago, the waitress had lotion or perfume on her hands and it was all over my drink cup, utensils, and plate. I was eating in a cloud of perfume. When I complained about it I was treated as if I were crazy and they very begrudgingly and with a pissy attitude replaced my drink cup and utensils. I was stuck with the plate.

I foolishly tried again several months ago, I went in there and left before even placing an order as the excessively strong air freshener odor from the restrooms was wafting into the dining area.

Being stuck in Bath for two hours on a freezing day, early in the morning when most other places on Liberty Street were still closed I had to go somewhere and decided after some debate to give the place one last try. It was a catastrophic fail. The waitress invited me to sit anywhere and asked if I wanted coffee. I said yes and sat. She bought the coffe but no menu. Others came in and were seated and received menus. I waited and waited and received no menu. Finally I got up and got my own damn menu and a good 10 minutes after I set the menu aside to show that I was ready to order, a waitress came and asked for my order. I ordered the loaded fries. Another man came in and sat down. He ordered. At some point the waitress came to refill my coffee and slopped it all over hell down the side of the cup and onto the table. She didn't acknowledge it or offer to clean it up, just left my coffee in a pool. The other man received his breakfast and was halfway through it before it dawned on me that my fry order had been completely forgotten. Pissed, I stood up to leave and was instructed to wait while she wrote my ticket. When I got to the register with the ticket I was apparently expected to wait at the register forever while another waitress yukked it up with the good old boys in the front booths. She didn't have drinks in her hands, she didn't have food in her hands. She was just holding Social Hour. Disgusted, I threw the ticket and the $1.24 for my coffee on the counter, and left, loudly announcing on my way out, "THANKS for the loaded fries, they were fantastic."

If you enjoy slopped coffee and mediocre (at best) food in a highly perfumed environment (that is, if you manage to receive your order at all) then this is a great...

How do I start with a place that serves a completely dismal meal. Ok let's start there. Breading on fish should be crisp with a good bite, but you should be able to bite it, but not here. Once you've penetrated the cement shell you were rewarded with a fish shaped gum eraser. The poor boiled salt potato that gave up its life in service to food was baked, and not just a little mind you, it was baked to potato crystals, it was grainy, over cooked, coated in enough salt to form a visible shell. The mashed potatoes that found there way onto my plate some how, endured the same fate as the baked one, except it had the added insult of being mashed. They reminded me of grits, I hate grits. that was their consistancy. The salad had two tiny cherry tomatoes on it, and the blue cheese dressing, probably should have had some blue cheese in it, and probably shouldn't be made out of miracle whip. The iced tea with the missing ice in it, was so strong 10 packs of sugar bounced off it like a bullet off of superman chest, oh the mountain dew was good. The only positive to the whole ordeal was the food (such as it was) came out quickly. The meal was over priced for what we got, which, mostly being inedible, wasn't much. Would I go there again? Not even on a dare. Would I recommend it to anyone else? Not even my worst enemy. The ONLY reason it got one star, was because I couldn't write this review unless I did. Stay clear of...
