The Gun, Keyhaven

Been here twice. Will never return. First visit, my family and I had crab sandwiches at lunchtime, all thoroughly enjoyable. Second visit, later that week, I went in for early-evening pint and soft drink with my 8-year-old son. Abusive landlord gave me grief for standing near his serving-hatch, then mouthed off at my son, who became confused and frightened. I told the landlord that if bullying the customers was his idea of fun, he could stick his pub up his a***. This led to a spontaneous round of applause from many of the customers in the bar. I then took my son by the hand and left the pub immediately, followed by four other customers who wanted to show their disgust at the way the landlord had behaved. Please can someone let me know when this hostelry changes hands, as I would like to go back there for a celebratory drink once the current landlord has departed/died.
