| Service is definitely NOT king in this establishment, the staff are generally cliquey and arrogant (the manager with the white lightening bolt fleck of white in his fringe a case in point), the food is less than impressive, and the theatre downstairs could do with a massive overhaul. This place needs new management. sapphirerose - 1 Jun 2009 18:09 |
| Was my local for 5 years... always had the same 3 people in it whenever you went in there... Irish Liam, Al (long curly grey hair) and Bruce (red face). Was at its peak when the manager cleared off and left the Aussie bar staff in charge for a few weeks - it was a hot summer, and they had no problem letting us move the pub furniture across the road to sit outside the laundrette to catch the evening sun! zeat - 10 May 2009 23:45 |
| Alright for a pint, but don't even THINK about ordering any food here! We decided to give it another go as ther was a 'new menu', ordering fish and chips with bread and butter and chicken skewers at 8.06pm. After asking politely at 8.30 and and rather more forcefully at 8.40, the fish turned up a few minutes later. HOWEVER the rest of the order didn't appear until 8.55. Not being funny, but the kitchen should concentrate less on gimmicks (the fish was sitting on brown paper and the lemon had been grilled and concentrate more on getting the food out before the customers starve or burst a blood vessel trying to get any information out of the sheepish barstaff. I mean how more can you mess with fish and chips! Cold mushies, cold fish, and blimmin matchstick fries and a roll and butter! I was expecting to make a chip butty for goodness' sake!!! When the guy cleared the plates he didn't make any eye contact and I had to shout 'yes it was fine, thanks for asking' - he looked at me like I was crazy! He got that right BTW, but REALLY! Customer is NOT King in this disappointing local. Boo. newworldorder - 5 Mar 2009 16:18 |
| Saw something here quite unlike anywhere else I can think of - everybody appeared to be paying by debit/credit card. With three barstaff on, which should have been enough for a reasonably busy early evening, things ground to a near halt as they all had to wait to use the single card terminal. Waited about 10 minutes to be served, but gave up and went to the Famous 3 Kings instead. I suppose that I will try again sometime, but it really was pretty farcical. rpadam - 23 Feb 2008 17:07 |
| Big and comfy, but stinks like a festival urinal in a heatwave. A Guinness will cost you £3.02 - useful if you want a pocket full of shrapnel. xyrion - 14 Sep 2007 16:11 |
