The Blue Posts, St James's

On 21st March, a friend of mine and my fiancee's, visited us from Newcastle. It was their 1st time in London and we went for something to eat in The Blue Posts, after we visited Piccadilly. It was a small and old fashioned pub, but it was nice. However, when we ordered food, the bar staff could not understand some of the words that we were saying. We ordered two tuna and pepper sandwiches but asked for onion instead of pepper on one of them. They failed to note this on the till even though they supposedly said that it would be OK. It came with peppers after 45 minutes of waiting (45 minutes for a sandwich!). The pub was'nt busy for food orders, so there was no real excuse. I ordered chicken and bacon on bloomer bread, it came on a bun. If I wanted a chicken and bacon burger I would of asked for it! But it had took so long that I ate it through sheer hunger. The female waitress huffed and puffed when we sent back one of the sandwiches, and then paraded the bar with it asking her 'supervisor' what she should do? She was very rude and spoke little English (we were in London!). At the ended of the delayed meal, we asked for a complaint form or email address. The staff just looked at us like we had 3 heads. I asked who there employer was (because it was not advertised or displayed anywhere) he replied 'I dont know'. He didnt even know who he worked for. 1 out of 5 for service, 4 out of 5 for the beer, 3 out of 5 for the food ( oh and, the chips were cold!)
