My friend suggested coming here for mid-morning breakfast. I had never been here before but had heard of the Soho branch. I thought the deco was like a 60s style diner with lots of melamine surfaces - I didn't find it particularly attractive. There were several unoccupied booths with a reserved sign which the waiters would not let us sit in, even with a small child. Eventually we found a corner table but the next table were seated very close to us which made it quite noisy. A group of 3 came
There were several unoccupied booths with a reserved sign which the waiters would not let us sit in, even with a small child. Eventually we found a corner table but the next table were seated very close to us which made it quite noisy. A group of 3 came in & were made to sit at the table next to ours. They saw a booth freed up before they had ordered and made their way over. The waitress was extremely rude and shouted at the "who told you to sit there, return back to your table!". A few minutes later she told them that there was a sofa seat free at the other end but not ready yet. They decided not to move. If it was me I would have walked straight out and was biting my tongue not to say anything as it was my friend's treat. It was so bizarre that they had about 70% of the place sitting in one area when the booths went unoccupied the whole time we were there. One of the rudest places I have every been too!
Anyway, to the food. I chose the English breakfast of 2 eggs, bacon, sausage, baked beans, mushrooms and toast. The waitress did not bother to ask what bread I wanted. The apple juice was served in the tiniest of glasses and I believe was watered down. Even my friend's son said it tasted of nothing. I was suprised that for $90 that tea/coffee was not an option and should be served as well.
The quality of the sausage was awful - I think it was chicken. Anyway it was cheap and tasteless. Eggs are eggs and baked beans are hard to get wrong tipped out of a can and heated up. I think I probably got 2 button mushrooms chopped up thinly to make it look more on the plate. I didn't try my friend's eggs benedict but the hollandaise looked unappertizing.
I really think that this place is a rip-off serving cheap quality food at not so cheap prices. If you are nursing a hangover and don't really care what you put in your stomach at 4am that this might be a place to go to but for anyone who cares even a tiny bit about their food and is looking for at least not rude service, they I would suggest you try the 24 hours MacDonalds. That's how bad the Flying Pan is. Never again thank you!
