"My wife and I went to Upstairs Downstairs tearoom on February 17th and were very upset at the treatment we received. I ordered drinks for both of us and a bowl of soup and a sandwich for myself, explaining to the very pleasant waitress that my wife has a severe digestive disorder and asked if it would be acceptable for her to eat a sandwich she had made for herself (plain turkey on wheat-free bread). Over the years we have visited cafes and restaurants all over the country and made this request which has, without exception, been met with sympathy and understanding. At Upstairs Downstairs, however, this was not the case. The waitress said she would have to ask the owner whom she thought would be reluctant to allow this. She returned a few minutes later to say that the owner had grudgingly agreed , subject to my paying a surcharge, even though the café only had one other table occupied by a couple having what appeared to be morning coffee. I then asked politely to speak to the owner who refused to come out of the kitchen to see me. We therefore cancelled our order and left the café. I should emphasise it was not the surcharge, as such, which was the problem as this would probably have been no more than my usual tip. Rather it was the complete lack of understanding and empathy for someone with my wife’s very distressing and painful condition. We then went to an alternative establishment called Salt and Pepper just across the road, and when I ordered a meal and explained my wife’s situation they immediately agreed, and offered to supply her with a plate and cutlery despite the fact that the café was nearly full. Thank you and well done Salt and Pepper. Needless to say we will not be returning to Upstairs Downstairs any time soon."
