We had a rather 'baad' experience last night @baadglasgow @the_calton_taproom 😌 we were filled with high hopes for this beautiful venue & we were sadly disappointed. We were greeted by a lovely guy, who was cheery & talked us through track & trace etc.. Escorted us to our seats & said someone would be over to take our order.<br />
<br />
👉 We ordered our drinks. Also ordered water for the table & we didn't receive the water (had to ask again)<br />
<br />
👉 A lengthy wait to order our food.. We made it clear that we were in for food & drinks.. All the staff were standing at the bar not paying attention & we eventually had to wave someone over (not good)<br />
<br />
👉 The server couldn't explain any of the food to us when we asked. Had to go away to consult someone & come back. Miss Diner ordered Pork Belly & they didn't know they had ran out. A lot of miscommunication & the service wasn't consistent at all. Ordered another Sauvignon Blanc & was met with a red wine 🤷♀️<br />
<br />
Our food -<br />
<br />
Thai Lamb Larb - A rather small dish, lacked flavour & poor presentation.<br />
<br />
Buttermilk Fried Chicken Wings - tasted like vinegar, we couldn't taste even a hint of the blue cheese sauce.<br />
<br />
Butter Sauce Fries - Bland cheese sauce with pale skinny fries.<br />
<br />
Katsu Sauce Fries - Pale skinny fries, sauce was ok.<br />
<br />
Bratwurst - Tasted like a hotdog from a jar, the bun was half toasted. Pulled pork was ok, but the whole thing lacked proper flavour.<br />
<br />
Scottish Ribeye Steak - Looked like a steak you would cook at home, not restaurant quality.<br />
<br />
Macaroni - Tasted ok, nothing to write home about.<br />
<br />
It was eat out to help out but the value is not good at all for the quality of food & service we received. If it was full price during normal times, we would have been livid. We ended up with two bills displaying two different figures 🤷♀️ We want to provide honest feedback as there is no point in sugar coating it. The setting is beautiful, great atmosphere & the football was playing. Vast improvements needed 💯 not sure we'd be rushing back.<br />
