We love the Ember Yard and having going for a couple of years, when ever we are in London. Probably 6-8 times. The food is exceptionally good as always. Wonderful delicious small plates and the wines are always good wines. The problem with EY is the service. The first few times we went there was a laid back, genuinely friendly service where staff talked a joked with you. Now everyone is different from the chef and cooks to waiters and everyone. The floor staff are clinical and in a huge rush to take away your plate whether you have finished or not. Lots of faces looking surprised as they have their plates swiped away from them. To make this worse, the staff aren’t even replenishing food in them, just dumping them in to the wash area and off to find more plates. This clinical OCD behaviour rather taints to lovely ambience ONLY the patrons curate, the staff bring nothing except for their constant swishing around the dining hall. What could be an experience is clearly displayed as a job (to do). Are they on commission for taking plates away? We even popped out for a few minutes to smoke and I had to stop a man attempting to remove plates. Ugh. It’s a slight obsession. Upon chatting to them, anything you say is lost or met with a rather insincere response. Shame. We love the food, and the atmosphere is wonderful. The best part of this is made up by the patrons and the cooks, the waiting staff take that all away.
