The RSVP, Wimbledon

Well, you obviously take your job much more seriously than those on the night i was there. I therefore withdraw my harsh comments as posted previously, and am willing to give RSVP another go when next in Wimbledon. All the best.

The RSVP, Wimbledon

butterbean88, yes i have worked in a bar before, but probably not as busy as RSVP, granted. We did have busy nights though where it would have been about the same.

The reason I was so harsh in my review is because it wasn't a busy period. If the bar was packed perhaps 4 or 5 deep then yeah, it's gonna be hard to know who was next and you just do the rounds.

But when there's only a handful of punters, and as a customer you're standing there and have been for ages, then you get skipped three times, it is just infuriating.

But what tipped it over, was the mucking around and the standing around by the barstaff. I mean, i know you gotta stock up straws etc. but surely you'd keep an eye on the bar, and see someone waiting there.

We were taught that when it's reasonably quiet, to drop non-important cleaning/stock stuff and serve customers. It's about being aware and paying attention.

There were others in our quite large group who were complaining at the time, but who's gonna be bothered to go onto the internet and complain about it?

richard and his team certainly give excellent customer service.

this is the best pub in tooting, bar none. yes, it's pricy, but that keeps away the... others.

food is always excellent quality.
