Monkey Nuts, Crouch End

I feel really silly. I've just had a really poor experience at Monkey Nuts and felt compelled to write it down (I'll also be writing to management because it's the third bad meal I've had this year - not sure why I kept going back, probably because my little one likes the monkeys and crayons).

Anyway ...
Just scrolled down to read the other reviews and I came across one I'd left three years ago, under a different name. Yes, that's me, and I'd totally forgotten about that bad experience my friend had. (How, I don't know!)

In short, service is extremely slow and verging on rude (when you complain, even in a nice way). And complain I needed to do today. All food came out cold. Kid's fries undercooked. Veggie burger still frozen in the middle. My nachos were overcooked, cheese not melted, so much black pepper in the sour cream (??) it wasn't cooling at all, no black bean salsa - just stray, dried out black beans.

I actually do have stomach pains now, which started just after I left the place. Hoping that it's just that the food didn't agree with me, or because I'm pregnant. Food poisoning not good when pregnant ...

(To the person who was suspect of my earlier review - I rarely leave reviews; only do it when I've had a particularly had a bad meal, which Monkey Nuts seems to do very well! And I name dropped Pick more daisies because, well, it was my fave (sadly now closed down due to expensive rents) and I was gutted that I ended up taking my friends to Monkey Nuts and having an awful meal.)
