We went out for dinner (which we don't get to do very often) and thought we'd give Buckley's another chance as it's been a while since our last... experience. We shouldn't have bothered. The meals cost what you'd expect to pay now-a-days, but I can't say we got anywhere near what you'd expect for the price. I've added a photo of the wedges (pleural, technically) that my chicken was served with. I'm calling it 2.5 wedges. I know businesses have to make money, but when you order a meal that is essentially a piece of chicken, some wedges and some lettuce - I don't think it's a big ask to at least have the number of wedges be more than a 3 year-old can count on one hand. I will say they didn't skimp on the lettuce though, so credit where credit's due. The biggest disappointment of the evening was probably when we sent the plate back expecting a, 'Sorry, here's some more wedges - enjoy your meal,' but instead we're told the 'chef' said that's how the meal is served. Even though I haven't worked in hospitality since I was a teenager, I'd have been embarrassed to have served this up and then not apologised. The chances of me going back there are, as the old saying goes, 'Both on Bourke Street'.
