"Date of dining 11.07.23 I’ve been here a couple of times and I have to admit I’m not a fan, I’ve always found the food to be tasteless. However I had an all4one voucher given to me by my employer, we chose to give wagamamas another try as it had been a couple of years since we’d visited in the past. The bill came to just a little over £50, again disappointed with the tasteless food but hey it was a free meal (or so we thought) so it didn’t bother us, it was just nice to get out. Upon paying the bill we were served by the manager who told us quite frankly that the card would not work, that they have loads of problems with them and it’s always happening. She scanned it twice on my request and she was right, it didn’t work. I asked her why she was allowing customers to dine at the restaurant without pre warning about these cards either via their social media platforms or by giving customers the common decency to let us know before we ordered just incase, to save people having the misfortune like myself of going out for what would be believed to be a free meal to then having to pay for it especially if they couldn’t afford it, and her reply was”oh yeah that’s a good idea I never thought of that”. After a couple of minutes of expressing my annoyance her speaking to her manager, I was still told I’d have to pay the balance. So now I’ve come to check the card the next day and it appears I’ve paid not just once with my own money, but twice as they’ve cleared the £50 balance which was on the card. To me, wagamamas are pulling the wool over their customers eyes. This could have easily been avoided."

"Firstly, I am traditionally trained service professional. I tried to contact Wagamama directly, but there is a stupid questionnaire which does not leave much room to comment. First time in this restaurant, I studied the menu for a very long time, would have been nice if a staff member had come over to offer help. Waited a long time for my drink, which I watched sitting on the bar. I did adjustments no onion,chili) to my meal, no problem. Again, food sat a while on the kitchen counter before being brought to my table not busy, 5.30pm). After clearing my empty bowl I was not offered dessert or more drinks. Waited a while to catch someones attention to pay. I had my purse on the table, clearly ready to pay. Staff were slow and not very attentive. Personally, I do not like long nails and nailvarnish for waiting staff, which in a lot places is against H&S rules. The music was very loud. A casual, slow service is all the rage right now and might suit a younger client, but not me. Oh, and one thing i learned on my first day in restaurant training, do not touch a glass at the rim. Or the straw where people put their mouth. Management was sitting on a table next to doing the schedule, with biscuits and energy drink cans on the table. Not a good look. Food? ah yes, Was nice enough, despite what was supposed to be brown rice, I popped to the supermarket and got myself some food to have at home. First and last time for me, sorry."
