Tavern Inn the Town — Restaurant in England

I'll cut to the chase. Entered said establishment, with my dog. Was served a pint, very nice cider. Due to the air show, comms were down. I querried the whereabouts of a barbers shop. I was taken to the window and shown the premises. I asked if I could leave my day sack, behind the bar. This was, understandably, declined due to the current situation. Other patrons, kindly offered to look after my belongings and my dog (very well behaved collie). I accepted, the kind offer, and went for a trim. Before I could sit down, I suffered public humiliation as the female bar staff entered the barbers with a tirade of abuse. It started with - Number 1, dogs aren't allowed in the bar ( why did you interact with me, not mentioning this policy? ). I didn't wait for number 2 ( there is no reasoning with scorned woman). I apologised to the barber and returned to recover my dog. The bar was quite quiet, with people looking nervously at the door. The very nice people dog sitting actually apologised to me, for the trouble caused. I thanked them and exited. I would love to read the ladys version of events, most entertaining I'm guessing. Just a tip - never judge a book by its cover, if you're having a bad day don't pass it on, if you wish to stay in business modify your attitude. Unless an apology, is forthcoming I will not return. I travel the UK extensively, for work, this is the most humiliating experience I've had the misfortune to endure.

P.S. don't be put off Weston, lots of nice pubs...

Coffee and cake for £4.95? What could go wrong?! Attracted in by the bargain above to a well-worn pub. So I asked for the "2 coffee and cakes". "Oh No!" was the bloke's welcome. He then disappeared. A woman picked up the order and started making coffees - (no choice offered - just coffees). Bloke reappears and bumps into the friendly woman making the coffees - spilling one on the floor. 2 slabs of chocolate and mint 'cream' cake. Lady made another coffee. 2 forks appeared. Interesting service.

So what do you expect for £4.95? The cake sponge was cheap - not stale - just not great. Gooey fluorescent green mint artificial cream and lots of it. The coffees... were good. Ok, I didn't get the chance to order mine black - but for a white coffee - it was fine.

All in all, it was OK. A decent atmosphere. Lots of swearing. Decent prices on the beers from what I could see. Well located in WsM. I would go back for a pint in the evening rather than a coffee mid morning, as I think the place has a working mans feel, and probably really lively at that time, and I'm...

Went in to play the pool table and have a few drinks whilst doing so.

One lady said its working, a guy at the bar who just finished his shift tried to convince the lady the pool cues were broken, and proceed to disappear with a pool cue beyond the door for the toilets. He said there were a couple of his friends coming in to practice in a minute anyway. Which seemed like the real reason no cues were available.

As a business with walk in customers we were turned away for the pub staff to play without giving any spend to the business. We would of Likely stayed here for an hr or two and had 3 or 4 drinks between us whilst paying to play pool. Someone should have a word with whoever this guy is. He is loosing you money. The pool table also stayed empty for 30mins. more than enough time for us to have enjoyed a game before their practice freebie sessions.

Lady that served...
