| This place is a leaderless disaster. But it's got 'oodles' of potential. the staff have not been in the least trained. The bar is a mess and ordering is a nightmare. This really could be a little gem. Time for the landlord/licensee to move on. 3/10 wolvesfan - 12 Dec 2010 16:17 |
| Took some Swedish friends to this pub last Saturday. Staff (vacant 18 year olds) were busy doing blatantly ignoring us. We waited what seemed like a long while at the bar while two staff went on about their business. In a complete absence of "I will be with you shortly" or "sorry to keep you waiting" finally one of them decided to take my order. I was mid-sentence when a third girl (vacant 19 year old 'managing' place) appeared and spoke to the one about to take my order, this caused her to leave without a word. I was left talking to myself. 'Manager' barely looked at us, just raised her hand so as to signal "wait". I complained and she said she had to send her stuff to lunch. Shocking service. No wonder this pub is empty! nostromogirl - 10 Nov 2010 12:14 |
| We went here for a meal on a Saturday night and it was pretty busy, bordering on very noisy. We did book a table but there wasn't a table reserved for us and we had to find our own. We really enjoyed the food, the portion sizes were good and so were the staff and the drinks. Definitely would go again, although perhaps on a quieter night. snorkler - 24 Oct 2010 11:13 |
| This place seemed to have some promise when it last re-opened, the staff seemed keen and attentive and there were some half decent beers as I recall. Sadly several subsequent visits have seen the place nearly always devoid of customers, which can't be a good thing in a pub that used to be bursting at the seams a few years ago....
