The Village Inn — Restaurant in County Sligo

Having been a monthly visitor and encouraging my younger family members also to visit - with each visit I requested a specific beverage which is easily available in most public licence facilities- I was lucky to have x1 bottle supplied within a 24month period - most of which was not purchased by me!!!. Following a very recent + approximately precious 5 visits and no such beverage available I was told that “the wholesaler” did not have in stock - (peculiar as many other establishments didn’t seem to have this problem)also that “nobody wanted to drink this here” and subsequently told that this was not a suitable drink to have available at this establishment by both a male and female service employee - I have to note that at the busiest period there may be 10-15 customers? Not a very “profitable” or popular spot? I was informed that “this is what I sell so choose something else”with no hint of service support or wish to have further profit paying patronage?! Sadly having been a cancer survivor and having various intolerances that have reduced my social possibilities I felt as a potential frequent patron it was not too much to ask for a bottle of specific alcohol that purchased for €30 and approximately 18 servings a fair profit would be made @ €5 a shot?? I then suggested that I bring my own and pay a corkage of €5 so I could share a moment with my 89 year old Dad who has been a patron for over 20years and this was seen as “not possible” after my repeated gentle requests to offer my only beverage of choice. Sad and very poor taste in our beautiful country and “The Village Pub” is now a slow and unfrequented tired dark space that could have encouraged new and fresher possibilities = that could have embraced a positive new frequenting patron but instead created a negative vacuum. If you see fit to not support the locals then Foleys and Connollys and Yeats Local and multiple others will benefit from our patronage. I welcome a change of attitude and will plan to try 1 more visit because I...
