I was seeing my brother off on Friday, he's going back home to Australia (lucky bugger) and we had some time to fill, so decided to grab some food and have a beer. There isn't much to do around terminal 2, so when we saw a Wetherspoons we thought we might have been in luck
We found a table watching the planes take off, and I went to the bar to order some food and drinks. I ordered a Salad with extra chicken and Eggs royal with a beer and wine.
About 15mins later the waiter arrived at our table with the eggs royal only, and then proceeded to tell me they couldn't serve me the salad as it was all mixed together (I can't eat gluten so asked for it sans couscous). I told him I won't have anything then, and I'd like my money back. He said he couldn't do that, and I'd have to go to the bar. I was a little rude at this point and said just bring me the money I don't care that I paid for it on my card.
He left and came back 5mins later with change for the salad only -_- So i had to then go back to the bar and ask for the money back for the chicken too.
Had the guy come to me before bringing my brother his food I may have ordered something else, but to come over with the other meal was a bit silly.
I guess we should have skipped wanting a beer and wine, and just settled with costa at the other end of the terminal. read more
