York & Albany (127-129 Parkway, London, London, NW1 7PS) I went in on wednesday at 12 noon, expecting no problem to get a table for lunch. My judgement was correct with only 2 tables in the restaurant and 1 couple in the bar area. However, the receptionist looked me up and down and told me they were fully booked but i could have the lunch in the bar area if i wanted and gave me the lunch menu. So i settled in the bar area and when ordering my starter, main course and dessert, i was told that the lunch menu was not available to the bar area but could have a snack purchased from the deli next door. In these difficult financial times, i find it difficult to understand not wanting to accomodate customers when the place is almost empty.
