"The food at the Whiteley branch of Friendly Phils was distinctly underwhelming. The burger patty was black and crunchy in places where it was so overcooked, and the burger bun had blackened edges from being burnt. Salad garnishes on the plate and in the burgers contained brown edged wilted lettuce. They got the orders wrong for one person on our table. We then had to experience a female member of staff and a male chef uttering expletives and discriminatory terminology when loudly discussing a customer who was at the next table to us because that customer had asked about allergies. We felt very uncomfortable listening to that. I think the woman doing this was the manageress because she was the only one not wearing an apron and appeared to be telling others what to do. The staff didn 't give time to read the menu before 3 of them came to the table within about 10 seconds of each other their impatience was quite palpable. the woman who I think is the manageress actually huffed at us when we asked for more time before ordering. There was a query at one of the tables near us the woman who I think is the manageress started yelling at those people from about 5 feet away. Then she went to their table again and started bellowing at them. We also found that behaviour very uncomfortable to witness. One of the waitresses continually fiddled with the pony tail in her hair, then did not wash her hands before handling plates of food. Another waitress used a cloth to wipe down a table, then went straight to the chef station and picked up two plates of food to carry to customers, also without washing her hands first. I also saw a waitress 'huff ' onto a glass and buff it with her apron before filling it on the drinks machine and carrying it to another table. The tables were quite dirty and we had to wipe food off the seats before we could sit. The cutlery was filthy with lumps of dried food on. A lamp next to our table had a thick layer of dust on it. The toilets were also dirty. In the ladies toilets there was an industrial sized toilet roll placed on the edge of the sink which had what looked like dried faeces on ! The sink itself was filthy with lots of soggy tissue in it, and the floor was wet. The toilets smelled like there was a drain problem. The whole experience was quite unpleasant needless to say we left much quicker than we had anticipated and will not be returning. This is probably the worst restaurant I have been to in this decade. They certainly donlt live up to their name of friendly ."
