Liquorish - what has happened??

[QZ]

Not sure if anyone else has noticed, or whether I am unaware of some grand change in ownership but what has happened to the service and food in Liquorish over the last few months??? We frequent there on a pretty regular basis (at least once a week, does that constitute regular??) and the staff have been, in the past few years, friendly, attentive and the service great. The last few attempts to eat / snack in there have proved disasterous. There are a few v surly bar staff who, frankly, need a kick up the backside and short lesson in customer service. I am gutted. I LOVE this place but if it carries on at this rate I may just explode with rage the next I go there based on recent performances.

The guy who used to own or at least run it doesn't seem to be around either.. :(:(

Is it just me or anyone else noticed a change?? (it could well be me...)

To be honest, I've always thought it was the worst drinking establishment on LL, but to be fair the food was good when they first opened. Bit pricey though!

the burgers are pretty good, although being a fan of ales not 'tails, always thought they would benefit from a few more taps, but then I may be blind to the bounty of their cocktails!

The guy who used to run it has moved to Nottingham. Shame - it used to be the best roast around. I waited an hour to be served lunch the other day..

The cocktails they make have gone down and some staff are not very well trained but dont boycott it just yet. I know that things will change soon.

So, Karter

What is happening?? Yes, I am still being nosey! I can't wait too long...

Karter,

Damn right about the cocktails. They used to be great, not so now...

Same with the Black Cherry. When they opened the cocktail waiter was pretty good, mixing 'off menu' drinks with ease.

(try getting a proper White Russian in most of London!)

QZ

nothing too glamourous like macdonalds taking over it, its just that quite a few of us have had words with management as we are neighbourly.(tu) ( a clue to Dm i wonder?)

[hot-diggedy]

I agree with Joe. I like dinner too. I went there back in Jan under recommendation and the burgers were fantastic. The meat quality was much better then their neighbouring establishment! However the service was somewhat surly and noisy to boot! However I do think as a 'non-chain' bespoke watering-hole we should be patient and see what results Karter's Neighbourly Collective produce.
