An appalling pub. I have not been this distressed since I attended a Coldplay concert, with Hard Fi supporting.

On the occasions I have been there, it has been a heaving sweat pit of fools with no manners. My friend got chatting to what seemed to be an amiable enough lady from Denmark, Aarhus, I believe. Her father imported plastic decorative figs. Anyway, I digress. She kindly offered to go to the bar and get the next round in, my chivalric friend kindly gave her the money for the round. We are still yet to see the aformentioned wench since. The last reported siting was of her purchasing a doner Kebab, swimming in Burgar sauce.

This is indicative of the clientele you get here, and the people of Aarhus ,where I understand 97% of all tourists are mugged, as per figures released by the E.U a week Tuesday.

Also, when I proceeded to buff my Walrus at my table, a member of staff raced over and insisted I must desist!

In short, I will never be going to this establishment again.

My visit here yesterday was the first for many years and I have to report that it is still a pit. The upstairs bar was rammed and the downstairs bar was as gloomy and depressing as ever.

I hope it is many years before I find myself in here again.

Bald headed barman/manager is so miserable he is totally in the wrong profession.
Place is a dump whoever owns this establishment hope you read this and do all you can to improve it even if that takes sacking the manager

I thought this place was ok, but then its aimed at the office workers who like to sip their Pimms on a Friday afternoon.
I managed to get a table and a drink in under 10 minutes, which for a Friday afternoon was pretty good going!

Below average in all areas pretty well sums it up - will the tourists who pack it out never learn?
