The Sea Cow, average food, terrible experience


Recommended Posts

Having moved to ED about a year ago, the mrs and I were keen to try out the local restaurants as they were a big reason for moving here. Overall they are great but there do seem to be a few that seem to assume that, given the large local captive audience, they don't need to provide good service. The Sea Cow is a prime example- having eaten there recently (we gave it a second chance), we experienced really quite dreadful service and will never be going again. Sub-standard food and very inattentive & indifferent staff. Has anyone else had similar poor experiences around here in either that place or others..? (For the record, most places are excellent which makes those that aren't, stand out)

I totally agree... I've had a bad experience with a takeaway order at the Sea Cow.... It's a shame as I'm always so proud to live here and there have been times when I've been out with friends and we've had a bad experience.


Overall the restaurants round here are great but it is a shame when a place lets you down.

Fish & chip shop characteristics - I'd say good fish that is what it says it is, fast service especially for takeaway and don't run out of fish at 8:30 PM.


In my youth they were all run by Italians and the 'service' was more gossip - and extra batter for the children :)

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
