La Poule Au Pot

La Poule au Pot has an alluring interior, with its intimate nooks and festoons of dried flowers and bric-à-brac that has changed little since the 60s and offers an authentic re-creation of “paysan” France. It is therefore no surprise that La Poule has been voted “best for romance” in the whole of London for so many years. Alongside the wonderfully atmospheric ambience, the menu is classic French too: excellent ingredients, generous portions and fine cooking, presented with exuberant panache. The wine list is honest, thoughtful and interesting. In warmer months, the extensive outdoor seating area makes this delightful restaurant one of the most desirable alfresco destinations in the capital.

*Clearly not welcome here if you're a person of colour* So please allow me to set the scene. Arrived at 6.30 pm last night. The restaurant wasn't that busy with a few empty tables. We were waiting in the corridor by the sign which stated "please wait to be seated". We caught the eye of one waiter and the barman who nodded at us. Ten minutes pass and we are still waiting. We are then joined in the waiting area by another couple. We engaged in small chit chat. Finally, the barman came to see to us. He addresses the couple and ignores our existence until the other couple informed him that we had been there first. But he knew this as he saw us through the glass doors earlier some ten minutes earlier. We stated that we wanted a table for two and we were then told that there were no tables available. This could have been communicated to us ten minutes ago when the barman was fiddling around his station opposite the glass doors where we had been waiting. Now it's bad enough that we were left waiting for so long when they could have told us from the outset that there were no spaces. It took for another couple to come join us for us to be addressed and even then we were ignored. We left feeling invisible and second class. I'm not one to throw -isms around, but it took for a white couple to come in for the staff to take action and address potential guests to the restaurant. It's an absolute disgrace that we were left waiting for so long only to be refused a table, wasting our time, and furthermore, our existence was not even acknowledged! This restaurant is in a prime location for visitors from across the globe, and in this day and age there should be no discrimination. I have raised this is an email to the restaurant and through feedback on their website and wait to hear back.
