| Robnest - thanks for re-affirming that for me- I realise that not everyone is a happy go lucky kinda person but if your'e in a customer service profession I do think being civil makes a lot of difference. A little smile goes a long way! Mitomighty - thanks for the tip re Nelsons - I dont want happyclappy service, if I did I'd go to the Disney Store - I'd just like people to be civil is all. As my mother used to say "Treat others as you'd expect to be treated" - maybe I'm just too polite for todays society and should just grunt lots instead of being pleasant and smiling!! Or just go to the Real Ale shop in Richmond - lovely, friendly, old-fashioned service with a smile :) ickleprincess - 13 Dec 2006 14:18 |
| 'ickleprincess', I beleive the Gentleman to which you refer is one Mr Edward Bains. Rather well built with a ginger beard? Yes? Thought so. Since he's a Dear Old Friend of mine, I shall attempt to apologise on his behalf. 'Sorry for being a Grumpy Git - I can't help it. Perhaps I shouldn't really be in customer service after all.' There. As it happens, his knowledge of beer is very good and he is, incidentally, an ex-brewer. He cooks a mean Chilli and smokes fish (an odd habit I know). But he is a Miserable Git. robnest - 22 Nov 2006 13:51 |
| Really good range of beer sold at their Borough Market stall HOWEVER perhaps the owner (?) the incredibly rude ginger haired chap should spend a little time on his customer service as after years of visiting and putting up with his really rather condescening attitude I have decided to give this place a wide berth from now on. I'm sorry but I do not expect someone to grunt in response to a question - I have spent a lot of money in this place (it is NOT cheap - and a lot of the beers can be bought in Sainsburys/Waitrose so aren't THAT rare) and expect some form of customer service. I went on Friday to buy my husband some nice Winter ales and the man was so incredibly rude I was acutually speechless - he grunted when I said "hello" upon taking my drinks to the counter to pay, he grunted the price and chucked my change back at me - no hello, thanks for coming, NADDA! Its not a one off either - he seems to have a certain distain for his customers, not just me. He sneers and snarls at them like they're bothering him and invading his personal space - perhaps he doesn't realise he is running a business. As I said a good range of beers but quite overpriced and lacking a certain customer satisfaction. I shall buy online or from the Real Ale shop in Twickenham from now on. My rating is solely because I have managed to get a lot of good ales for my hubby here and they have a good range ickleprincess - 14 Nov 2006 23:01 |
| Spoke to one of the guys behind the counter last week, and they are actually supposed to be opening a bar in the area in the next few weeks... so now you know. They also stock the Sierra Nevada and Anchor Steam, for those of you with an interest in fine American brews. burnsy - 18 May 2006 15:42 |
| Surley this is more a less a stall within the Borough Market isn't it? Unless they have another outlet in the vicinity I don't know about. There certainly doesn't seem to be a specific "bar" area within the market outlet that I know. Still, it does sell a great range of bottled beers from all over Britain and around the world, with an extensive range from the wonderful St Peters Brewery including their magnificent Honey Porter.(Good on draught but stunning from the bottle). Bar or not it's well worth a visit. BobbyV - 3 Mar 2006 18:25 |
