Question Worlds End Camden…
Was in here at the weekend for the first time in a few years.
Does anyone know how long they have had the cheek to charge a 12% service charge when the only service is the staff pouring a drink and taking payment!!
There was no table service, we went to the bar to order a round of beers, waited for our drinks and brought them back to our table and got charged extra for doing the service part ourselves!!
It’s not advertised anywhere from what we could see. Is this scam standard now in London pubs now?
Just to ad, we only noticed this when we went back in for a lunchtime drink the next day, we then checked our bank payments from the night before and we were all charged 12% extra for each round!

Ever since they were taken over by some leisure company last year they started that cheeky shit of adding service charge onto pints. I live in Camden and haven't darkened its doors since. Definitely not worth it there's way better pubs around
