| - We eat at Afton Tavern pretty regularly (even had our rehearsal dinner there when it was Max/Ally's) but unfortunately the service has really gone downhill recently. Tonight we were there with a party of 8. Service was extremely slow. We ordered cheese fries as an appetizer and asked the bacon to be left off. Sure enough, when they came to the table, the bacon was not left off. We sent back the cheese fries. It was at least another 30 minutes before they brought us a replacement platter of cheese fries, but by this time, we'd almost finished our entrees, so what's the point. The person who brought our food to the table dropped a side of salsa all over my friend's new jacket. The dessert that my husband and I ordered was forgotten and not brought out with everyone else's, so we had to wait for them to make another cookie skillet while everyone else was eating. When we got the check, we were charged for 2 beers instead of 1, so we had to wait for them to adjust it and bring us a new check.
To add insult to injury, a 20% gratuity was added to this check since our party was 8 people. I consider myself a very generous tipper for decent service, but there is NO WAY I would have given 20% for this experience. I think this was the nail in the coffin for us, as far as Afton Tavern goes.
