点评:On Sat 5 April afternoon, I went to Manor Farm cafe for coffee and cake. I asked for a piece of cake from the display, but the one that was selected for me by the person serving was the shrivelled end piece, half the size of the others - there were at least six other pieces that could easily have been selected. Basically it was not what I had seen and ordered - it was 'not fit for purpose'.
When I challenged this, all I got was a muttered "sorry" said with what appeared to be a smirk on her face, and no offer to change it for another piece of cake. I left the matter as it was as other people were waiting to be served, but if I get such service again I will go further next time even if it inconveniences other customers
I do hope difference and rude behaviour to customers is not going to be the norm there.
In contrast, I regularly use the 'rival' Barnfield cafe where service is wonderful and the staff friendly.
翻译:4月5日,星期六下午,我去Manor Farm咖啡馆喝咖啡吃蛋糕。我点了一块蛋糕,但服务员给我选的却是一块皱巴巴的蛋糕,只有其他蛋糕的一半大小——至少还有六块蛋糕可以随便选。基本上,这块蛋糕和我之前看到和点的完全不一样——它“不合适”。
我提出质疑,服务员只是低声说了句“对不起”,脸上带着一丝假笑,并没有提出换一块蛋糕。我没再说什么,因为其他人都在等着服务。但如果下次我再遇到这样的服务,我下次还会继续光顾,即使会给其他顾客带来不便。
我真心希望那里不会出现这种对顾客的歧视和粗鲁行为。
相比之下,我经常去“竞争对手”Barnfield咖啡馆,那里的服务很棒,员工也很友好。
