The Keston Lodge, Islington

The service was terrible, with three girls standing behind the bar and talking, we managed to sit directly infront of them with finished plates for over 40 minutes, in the end we placed them at the bar ourselves, with a "thankyou" from the cook.

Our table was so wobby that our cocktails were in danger of spilling too, we ended up changing tables and moved to a table which, once again, the glasses were not picked up (no one had been sitting there for about 10 minutes) and the table was dripping wet, not realising this i ruined my make-up bag :(

But that was nothing compared to the shoddy service! It was as if they really didn't like serving people in this place and to be honest, walking in i felt like i was interrupting a private party.

The decor is of course nice and inviting, but if the manager's not in I wouldn't recommend I'm afraid. Not for �7 per drink anyway.
