Nice view of the quay. Came her for dessert and drinks only. Deconstructed cheesecake was delicious and not too heavy. Efficient and friendly staff. Will come back to try other items on the menu.
A very mixed review of our visit to Cargo last night. While the food and venue were superb the service was perhaps the most woeful I have had in recent times which absolutely impacted on our enjoyment.
We came to Cargo ahead of a concert at festival hall and were seated at a table looking out over the amazing evening view of Docklands. As a venue location it cant really be beaten as its right there on the waters edge. The staff member wanted to immediately take our drinks order before we had even finished sitting down and we told her we needed a few minutes to read the menu. Big mistake … it took something in the vaccinity of 20 minutes for her to return to us and take our drinks order (and food order at that stage). We had made eye contact with her a ton of times but she was clearly too busy and ignored us. We had even pulled other staff aside asking if we could order from them but they clearly had their own areas to look after.
We ordered a couple of cocktails and beer along with an open souvlaki, chicken burger and a mushroom pizza. Interestingly enough the food came out really fast… and without our drinks which we had to follow up on. It seemed like if we hadnt pressed for them to be done in order to accompany our food we might have still been waiting.
Food wise absolutely no complaints. The open souvlaki was served in a hot metal plate with lamb, chips, pita, salad. Lamb was tender and tasty.
The pizza was lightly truffled and had a good base… more crispy that chewy.
The chicken burger was also tasty and chicken tender.
Our passionfruit Moscow mules was visually stunning and presented in a copper mug while the cosmopolitan came well shaken and tart.
Our next interaction with staff was again problematic. Trying the get someone to print our bill and help us leave took an age. Nothing more frustrating than being ready to leave and wanting to pay, not having a queue to pay but not being able to get a staff member to help us get out of there.
If they could fix their front of house, or hire more staff if need be, then Cargo could be great as their food really good value for such a wonderful location.
