The Coach Makers, Marylebone

Seemed liked a nice pub. They advertised their upstairs bar as a 'gin palace' but was shocked that they didnt have any slimline tonic...they served me a gin and regular tonic which was flat and quite horroble. The nice girl upstairs said they'd had the issue all day, i suggested they nip out and buy some tonic as it's fairly fundamental to the key way of drinking gin, i.e. a gin and tonic??!! I was told this wasnt possible and to have something else. I ordered an alternative and nipped down to ask the manager, who said "alright luv, its only just happened, we'll go out and get some" in a really rude way. Then they didnt even bother to get slimline either. Far from ideal, wont be going back!!
