Good Pub for Sports events, bad for everything else
*Insider Tip:*
Avoid talking to the service personnel, just focus on the Sport, check the outside board to see when they plan to screen what event
******************************
Visiting Details:
Drinks, 2 person, 300 HK$ each
Service: 1/10
Cuisine: Western
Outside Seating: No
Serving Tab Water: No
What we really liked:
The multiple screens, showing different sport events if broadcasted simultaneous
And what not:
The attitude of the service personnel is unacceptable
******************************
General:
The Wheel is a Sports pub, very typical, with British interior, and the same old characters inside as you would expect them to be. It's located in the middle of Soho, and very conveniently directly next to the mid-levels escalator (get off at Subways).
It is one of the few places in Hong Kong that shows multiple sport events at the same time. usually I have to decide, British Open or Formula 1, Premier League or Rugby. The Wheel has multiple TVs and shows different events on each of them (if required). The food looked ok, solid bar food and some British selections (Fish And Ships etc).
Drinks are priced normal for this part of the town, but don't expect any wine or champagne recommendations, beer is probably the one thing you should go with here.
Service:
Usually we don't dedicate a whole section only for the service, but we really felt like we have to warn you chaps out there, as we made some very unpleasant experiences here (over the course of multiple visits).
- The service is extremely pushy when it comes to ordering drinks or finishing them, this is a common problem in Hong Kong where the rental prices are so high, bars are relying on a high turn over rate of drinks per customer, but Bars out there listen:
DONT take away your customers glasses when they are still filled
DONT look down on me like I am some poor guest, when I dont order my next full pint, 5 seconds within finishing the last one
DONT talk about your customers behind their back, yes even though you might speak in your local language, we still get the idea of your words
DONT spill the drink on me, without saying sorry
DONT be aggressive towards your clients in ANY way (and this is a big problem here, especially the bartenders seem to mistake their job with some kind of local UFC warm up session)
So yes, as much as we don't like to write negative comments, until "The Wheels" management does something about their service personnel's attitude we cant recommend anyone to drop by there.
Please note, we are very well aware of bars requirements to make money, and its absolutely ok to not serve free water or ask if you want to order another drink, once you emptied your glass. But do it with style, you want us to stay, spend more money, and drink more, not end up writing these kind of reviews, right?
