TGI Fridays The O2

Attended for a lunch date, around 1pm. It was nice and quiet with less than 10 people inside. We were seated promptly as we walked in, and a server came to take our order roughly 5-6mins after we sat down. We ordered the bottomless bbq wings, which for 1 person is £15 - you are not allowed to share it, which is a bumber, or else it's £20 pp 🤔, also had the glazed corn and sweet potato fries. Wasn't too keen on the glazed corn as it just seemed like boiled/steamed corn with mayo and jalapeños dressing 😔. For drinks, we ordered Mojito and strawberry daiquiri- both drinks were OK but seemed watered down by the amount of ice put in compared to the amount of alcohol. Overall, I wasn't overly impressed, but yeah.

Absolutely amazing service, from start to finish! Greeted by a lovely lady, who we later found out was the manageress. Taken to a quaint little booth. Our waitress was a very helpful lady, called Genevieve (I think), her and Kat (the manageress) were the only ones working, the restaurant was fairly busy, but both had smiles on their faces, had time to crack a joke here and there, cocktails were fab and food delicious! Definitely coming back!

If there was a no star option I would choose that. One star is too much for this restaurant. We came last night and we had to wait 1 hour to be seated, which is not a problem as we suspected that the tables were reserved (no one showed up for any table even after being there for 2 hours). We sat at the bar (3 staff behind the bar) and waited another 15 minutes for someone to take our drink orders, even though we were the only two people at the bar. The cocktails came in water glasses and it was the worst cocktail I have had in my life. After about an hour they sat us at a table, which we ordered the American Grill and the cheese and bacon loaded fries. It was the worst food we had ever tasted, the steak was the size of my palm, the ribs were obviously bought frozen from the supermarket and didn’t even have the bbq sauce on top, the other rib came cold and flavourless, we then ordered a corona and they didn’t have lime or lemon. The toilets were absolutely horrific, toilet paper all over the floor and clogging the toilet, with urine everywhere I had to walk out in disgust. The only good thing about the place was the waitress that served us, she was nice and polite. Overall DO NOT go there, if I ate any more of that food I would get food poisoning, it was honestly the worst I couldn’t bring myself to eat it, and for the price absolutely horror. Shout out to the waitress tho.
