I've had nothing but GREAT experiences at Black Pepper…read more The staff are not just friendly, but attentive and are willing to go the extra mile. The fact that it was a year between visits didn't diminish the fact that I was both welcomed and recognised as I entered. The food is superb. The chefs are not just competant, but highly skilled, and are willing to fulfil any request that is made. My overall impression of Black Pepper is of a restaurant that I would love to dine in more. The food is well prepared, well presented and reasonably priced.

Despite the Greek sounding name, looking at the menu, I'm wondering if it's actually a Turkish…read moreplace. Greek-Turkish Frenemies?! The 15 inch pizza was more like a 14.5 inch pizza (yes I always keep a tape measure on hand when ordering pizza to call out all the pizza dimension shenanigans of there), anyway I guess I can let it slide. My wife liked it a lot and wants to order from here again. I thought it was just basic ok. One of the cheaper ones I could find and they don't charge anything for delivery. The sour cream and garlic sauces didn't taste great and I threw most of it out. At least I didn't have to pay extra for the sauces.

When we arrived to the restaurant, we immediately felt that there were major discrepancies in price…read morebetween the menu available on the website and the menus on the table - often a £2 or £3 difference in individual items. The hospitality was cold and unwelcoming, they seemed indifferent to their customers. The meal was served within an appropriate time, however the food itself really wasn't worth the price. The worst part was waiting for the bill for half an hour whilst the serving staff tended to their own dinners in the restaurant. The bill itself was not broken drown by item and given to us as a total amount, and the overweight owner sat back to his dinner with his back to us so that he didn't have to attend to us. We persisted and asked for a bill that showed us a breakdown, and got angry as they thought we were questioning their prices. He threw our credit card very rudely on the table. When we did eventually receive the itemised bill, we were charged for "inclusive" salads that were meant to be included with the meals. We were also pretty miffed to find that he'd added compulsory £5 service charge which was not stated anywhere on the menu, internet site or at the restaurant. It should not have been more than £43 and we were charged £53. It was my husband's birthday, but it was unprofessional, rude, and thoroughly dissatisfying. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.
