She said: After a trip to the movies we were hungry and wanted something quick and easy for dinner. Having wandered into a few duds (local Byron said we had to wait for a table and a pizza place nearby said they were too busy despite empty tables) we liked the look of the Bluebird Café which had a chic diner feel to it. Boy were we wrong. We should have known to turn around when no-one bothered to seat us and we had to seat ourselves, collect our own menu, go up to waiting staff who seemed to be ‘hanging out’ and give our food order and then find them again to pay our bill (and yes they did still charge service). I haven’t witnessed such awful or should I say lack of service in a long time. I ordered a gorgonzola, pear and walnut and chicory salad which was as described but the spectacular lack of service and some cackling fellow female diners combined to ensure I never return.
He said: We happened to be in the area, hungry, and remembered a nice meal in the restaurant upstairs. We should have walked on. The food was fine; sometimes you just want a meal, not an epiphany. But the service was by a long shot the most indifferent I've experienced in London. Don't reward the owners with your hard-earned cash. The King's Road is not short on alternatives.
