Angelus (4 Bathurst Street, London, London, W2 2SD) Very mixed evening at Angelus – first time visit. For some reason staff didnt engage with us throughout the evening, either by listening or talking, and we left feeling like second class citizens compared to other, obviously more regular or higher spending vistors. Examples: gave us the wine list, then took it away without asking us if we wanted to order any wine, so got a second wine list and went up to the bar to order. When the wine came, it was the wrong bottle, and the waiter implied he wasnt paying attention because he was too busy when we ordered at the bar… Offered bread by the waitress who was looking away talking to colleagues rather than noticing we didnt want any more bread… waiter said goodbye loudly to a customer across our table while serving us… and so on, through the evening. Tables very very close (6inches) so you will need to be comfortable with your neighbours: ours were speaking italian so less intrusive.
Wine excellent and not expensive for the quality £20-1000/bottle. Food average, and quite expensive so not great value. Lounge area very nice. Atmosphere buzzy and busy, so what could have been a good evening was spoiled by the service.
