The Clayton Public House - Surrey

We had our first visit to Clayton’s, and it was a delightful experience. We chose to go on Father’s Day and happily arrived just in time for Happy Hour. Everything we ordered was delicious, particularly the coconut shrimp, chicken wings, beef dip, and spaghetti and meatballs. The only downside was that we had to wait an hour for our food. I assume they were quite busy, which is a good sign overall. Our servers were excellent, and the atmosphere was pleasant.

I took my daughter out to celebrate my birthday, and we had the crab legs and poutine, both of which we really enjoyed. The waitress and the staff were very friendly, and the atmosphere was delightful and fun.

We visit this restaurant every Friday after work. The food is always excellent and the service is great. It's best to make a reservation since they tend to get very busy.

We had 3 appetizers .. the Calamari was one and cooked the vest .. was not crispy .. should be cooked more

We had been once before for seafood night and it was awesome. So we thought we 'd make a reservation as a treat to ourselves on St. Patrick 's Day. Upon arrival we did not feel welcomed at all. Even though we had made a reservation for 2. The host (bouncer) by the photo scanner (which/who was not there on our last visit) was rude and cold, he clearly was never trained in resturant customer service. He made us feel like we were causing him discomfort by arriving for our reservation. He informed me that reservations on Open Table were not accurate. He asked us to stand by the door. After 15 mintues, someone who seemed to be a manager came over holding a tablet and asked me my name. He then informed us that he took down our reservation because we were 15 minutes late. I let him know that we had actually been standing by the door waiting to get in for over 15 minutes now. With no apology, he said on well we might still have something and guided us to the very back corner of the resturant. We sat beside some old Christmas decorations. The service from our waitress was mediocre, she didn 't write any of our orders down so she forgot things and had to be reminded a few times. The St. Patrick 's Day playlist that was played over the sound system was offensive, as a Irish Catholic going into the public to celebrate I had higher expectations. At one point Teddy Bear 's Picnic played for over 10 minutes. Our seafood was not as well cooked as our last visit, lots of crab legs empty with no meat inside which would 've been clearly seen by the kitchen if there was any quality control. At the end of our visit our bill was $200.00, we expected more/higher quality service overall when spending this amount of money. Can 't say we 'll be back at this point.
