Sloe Bar

Waiting for a train I ordered a glass of white wine and was told I'd have to wait until the dishwasher finished as there were no wine glasses left. Not wanting a hot glass for white wine I asked for it in whatever they served gin in. It wasn't even very busy or near rush hour :/ Sticky, and a bit expensive.

I was looking forward to going to this bar and it had some great beer offers written on a blackboard outside, Amstel £3.49, Fosters £4.49 etc. So I went in and asked for the Amstel offer and the barwoman said that deal was off. OK I said I'll have the Fosters. Off too. Cheapest pint is £5.10! So the "offers" are just bait to get you inside. I walked out. It's nice enough inside but conning people into going in is out of order.

This bar is on the way to my platform and I always love popping in for a nice drink. Margret is always smiling and welcoming. She makes sure everyone in the bar is taken care of!

Margaret served me. She made eye contact as soon as I approached the bar and served me as soon as she had finished with the customer in front of me. Very welcoming and friendly

Devastated the place close. Cheap pints, nice place, all round lovely.

Its was a nice friendly experience especially Margaret, she made my experience so welcoming and comfortable too. The service was excellent

A lovely place to wait for a train back down south :- good drinks selection and very nice coffee. Friendly staff, very clean and tidy, decorated in an old fashioned cosy pub way. not sure if they get 'regulars' like a normal bar, perhaps regular commuters. It was very quiet when I visited. Don't know if they do food, I went across the concourse to the Cheese Shop and bought a sandwich for my journey and some Dutch cheese as a gift for my husband

Today I was over charged, it was an easy mistake and could have easily been rectified, however when I pointed out the mistake I was told I was wrong. I politely explained that I knew the price for single vodka and coke was £4.95 and not the £6.95 I had been charged. To this both bar staff publicly told me that the prices had gone up today and that this wasn't their fault do dont blame them. I stated politely that i wasn't blaming them, and while the price may have gone up it was excessive and add a customer I wad in my rights to say so. I was then told publicly by both staff, that it wasn't their fault and they printed the receipt to publicly show me that they were right. This was when it was clear I had been charged for 2 separate drinks. When I politely explained this to the staff they had an argument between themselves in non English. I was told that I could get another drink 'next time' and that they would chargeme thecorrect price but give me extra coke. I informed them they could give me my refund. This took extra time and a phone call to another party as they did not know how to fo refunds. Not surprising!! I worked in pubs and bars for many years, this was a sad performance by the staff that could have been avoided if they hadn't lied and tried to embarrass me in front of a bar full of customers!

Great if you need quiet space in the station. Good range of drinks and friendly staff.

Nice place to spend 45 minutes after missing train. Amstel and chill/trance.
