Complaint to AMT Coffee Shops

Complaint to AMT Coffee Shops It is my habit to purchase a take away coffee each morning on my way to work. This can be at varying times of the day, and in different coffee shops as my fancy takes me. I usually favour a small cappuccino, but may alternate this with a flat white, [...]

Dire Dining at College Soiree

Dear Oxbridge College, which shall, for its own good, remain unnamed: You might ask what exactly I had expected from a Cambridge college dinner; but it was certainly not what I received. Three courses for seven pounds – reasonably; in fact the same price as the banana-flavored chardonnay I ended up with, due to stuttering [...]

Too much spilt milk.

Complaint about Marvel milk packaging. While me and my husband are at work, we like to use Marvel dried milk, as there’s no worries about it going off or out of date. While the product is excellent, the packaging is a nightmare. Both of us in turn, several times, have dropped the whole tin on [...]

The Customer isn’t Always Right

Dear Customers, I am writing to complain about the various customers that enter my place of work. You may be surprised, but considering the fact that I deal with over 80 people a day in my line of work, I have come across some of the rudest, arrogant and just plain horrible customers. When you [...]

Farewell, my chocolate covered friend.

Dear McVities Chocolate Digestive, Much as I appreciate your continued support through times thick and thin, I fear it may be time I begin searching for a replacement culinary comfort blanket. For years now, I have craved no other lover – perhaps in a stereotypical manner, whenever I’m feeling low, I reach for the teapot. [...]

I’m in a hurry! Where’s the food?

London is the most magical city to go to! With it’s great West End shows, shops and great places to eat. However you expect on a Friday that it’s going to be manic. After watching the delightful show Dirty Dancing as a birthday treat we left at 5:00 thinking we had time to spare. “Don’t [...]

Age Indiscretion

Dear Sir/ Madam, I recently ate at your restaurant, and I was highly disappointed with the service and food when I visited.

I visited your above mentioned establishment on Tuesday February 23rd 2010 with family and friends for a meal. Upon placing my food order I stated to the nice young girl behind the bar that I suffer from an allergy to peppers which can cause an anafalactic shock and therefore asked her specifically to notify the kitchen of this allergy. However when my meal arrived I was horrified to see that the salsa ketchup provided with my meal contained peppers despite my specific meal order for no peppers.

Curry and Football!!!

The cuisine and ambiance at Ganges had been highly recommended to my husband from a work colleague, so we decided on impulse to dine at our closest restaurant which happened to be in Ringmer. Please note, this was not the recommended one. We arrived at about 8.15pm and were quite shocked when we walked in. We were greeted by a flat screen tv facing the diners playing football!!!

Get with it, Wetherspoon

I’ve given up on J.D.Wetherspoon’s Sir Robert Peel pub in Bury. For years I’ve gone on Sunday afternoon for a meal and a few pints. Now I’ve moved to another pub nearby, less choice of beers, more expensive food, but with some idea what customer service means, which Wetherspoon’s seem to have lost altogether. They [...]

Complaint About Ready Meals

I bought from the Northwich, Cheshire store of Sainsburys a beef stroganoff – they were buy one get one free. They tasted of plastic and pepper, they were so bad that we could not eat them – I just threw them away – not something I can really afford to do.
