The Holly Bush Inn, Salt

Called here on Sunday 26th at 11.30. Front door open but barred by a chair. I stood in the doorway and asked politely when the pub opened. I was given a rather terse reply and as I walked away the door was slammed hard shut. It felt like a slap in the face and although the pub looks gorgeous and came with a recommendation it's made me feel so unwelcome I won't go back. Just goes to show how a thoughtless word or deed can have such a strong impact -- quite shocking behaviour from pub staff -- it's the worst 'first impression' I've ever had from a pub. A big shame and it could have been so different.
