O'Neills, Bournemouth

Second, and this time, negative comment. My wife and I visited again on the following Wednesday evening and had 2 problems. The first was the short measured pints of lager ie huge frothy head. The second, and most important to us, was the smokers outside the front door but the doors were propped open and the smoke pouring in. We moved tables to the back of the bar but that didn't help much. We complained to the barmaid who thought she could solve the problem by outstaring us ( but failed). I then went to the manager who explained that the doors were open "to let some fresh air in"!!!!! In all fairness the doors were closed afterwards but beware of having to get past the smookers to get in.

I have 2 comments, one positive and one negative which I will do separately. This is the positive one. My wife and I visited on a Sunday evening, OK no Real Ale but the bar maid was pleasent and welcoming albeit a bit a slow.

Several pints of Piddle drunk - well kept. Good, friendly staff who know about their beers! We will be going again.
