| - We met friends at Jamesons before the Stamps game the other night. Game was at 8, we were there at 6. Figured that was lots of time! The restaurant was about half full. Our waitress came and took drink orders, which we followed up quickly with another drink order. The second never arrived. We placed our food order at 630. We ended up waiting 55 minutes for food. Tables around us were getting food faster than we were and they ordered later. Clearly our waitress was just not very good. She came and asked if there was anything she could get for us (at the 50 minute mark) and I said "just the food would be great". She just giggled and walked away.
I ordered the Jamie Burger. 8 oz patty, applewood cheddar, bacon, lettuce and tomato, and a sauce that im not sure what it was, but it didn't taste like much. The tomato was vert under ripened and still white, hard, inedible. The bacon was undercooked, actually it was raw. I took it off, and my girlfriend had a club with raw bacon as well. The burger itself was OK. Just OK.
The manager did come over and apologize for the wait, and took 15% off the bill. But that did not change the fact that we were now late to the game. While paying the waitress said "you guys must have just come at a crazy time"...and giggled again...
For a pub that promotes pre game specials, service should be much faster. Topped off with mediocre food, no thank you.
Not in a rush to go back. Sorry Jamesons.
