Mowgli Street Food

(This review is based on a visit from June 2024, it’s possible the access has since improved, and I’d certainly hope it has!) Once inside, Mowgli is a brilliant venue. It has a great atmosphere, tasty cocktails, and really lovely food. But the access experience before even getting through the door was deeply frustrating. I’d read online that there was a doorbell you could press to request the portable ramp, but there was none in sight. I called the number listed on Google, struggled to get through to the branch I needed, called the central Mowgli number and the woman I spoke to struggled to reach them too. She was lovely and very apologetic, but couldn’t connect through either. It was a hot day and I felt awkward and quite stuck, waiting outside on the pavement. Eventually, a server came out with a ramp. I don’t know if someone had flagged me to him or if the central number had finally gotten through. When I mentioned the missing bell, he just shrugged and said he didn’t know anything about it. That lack of care was honestly more disappointing than the wait itself. It’s a real shame, because I’d love to return. The food and service once inside were great. But unless the access system is improved, I’m not sure I’d come back without backup.
