Not impressed with house of tippler


Deepti

Recommended Posts

Always wanted to go to house of tippler since I recently moved to the area but was disappointed with service when I finally went. My drink was VERY unhappily changed after a fly flew in it and it was suggested to me that it's fine to drink it after pulling the insect out - could not believe I was being told that, thought a place like this would have higher hygiene standards. Safe to say I won't be going back there. It's a shame as seemed like a decent place, but shocking attitude from staff.

Unless the fly was employed by the HOT, which would of course be ridiculous, then I think they were decent enough to exchange it.


Arrives with fly? HOT at fault.

Delivered and left with you, fly invades glass, which of course is what Brer Fly does, then a 'judgement call' as to whether the establishment is responsible or not.

Couldn't begin to calculate how many insects I've hoiked from a drink and carried on gargling, but I suspect my standards may be different to yours, Deepti, but I refuse to raise them.


Tell us truly how you broached the matter with the help.


Appears to me they did well in offering you an exchange, perhaps a little credit is due?

Agree with both HB and KK. Having walked up and down LL today, the place is covered in flying ants and flies. The fault of HOT that one of them decides to take a dip in your glass? Methinks not!


Very strange attitude......I am always amazed when people ask for refunds/replacements when it's clearly not the fault of the business. Reminds me of a thread within the last few days.

    • I agree Callows Locksmiths in East Dulwich really are the best - the staff are so kind and go above and beyond to help customers! I took in a Yale lock that I thought was broken and they checked it and told me that the deadlock function had been activated by mistake and pointed out that in a property with flats this would be dangerous if a fire broke out.  They then showed me how to disable it, gave me new screws (because the threads had worn) and expert advice on how to refit it - all without charge!!  Thank you!

    • Perhaps you could be pleasant rather than pedantic.  This is supposed to be a bit of fun but you have managed to already make it divisive.  I expect others will be more jolly.
    • To many Starmer comes across as weak, indecisive a lacking a plan. The complete opposite of a conviction politician.  He can overcome these perceptions by  having a clear foreign policy and staunchly safeguarding Britain's standing in the world. So far he has alienated our closest ally over the Chagos and the two traitors spying for China. The word on the street is that the leadership void has been filled by Johnathan Powell and that Starmer  does everything Powell says. Powell should be sacked as his  links to China go back 3 decades during which he was a frequent visitor and meeting senior Chinese officials. The other connection is through his brother -Lord Powell who was chairman of the China-Britain Business Council. Both Powells are members of the 48 Group Club whose stated aim is to "connect China to the world" Has  Starmer got the guts to clear out the Augean stables?
    • We've just had our kitchen and bathrooms tiled by Piotr at PW Tiling and are so pleased with the result.  It's a family business and all the workmen were polite, clean and tidy and skilled.  Piotr came back to correct snagging issue immediately and the finish is impeccable.  There were lots of little touches such as detail around the fireplace, graduating the step from carpet to tiling and tiling up the island to avoid scuffing the cabinets.  We thought the quote was really competitive too.   We picked him up from East Dulwich Forum (thank you!) but wanted to reiterate how good his workmanship is.
