Edit: In response to the reply from the venue manager or whoever, if you want to resort to the usual underhanded 'discriminatory or derogatory language' tactic, you really should look up the definition of the words you are attempting to label in such a way. This is merely another form of evasion and further highlights the general lack of moral fibre exemplified by this establishment. Maybe I can do your job for you?
Cambridge Dictionary: Tinker: Noun: old-fashioned or informal: a badly behaved or mischievous child.
Now, in light of the fact that a £50 note was handed to this particular member of the bar staff, never to be seen again, despite your stated no cash policy (naturally not mentioned by said staff member at time of transfer), this word would seem an appropriate turn of phrase for said staff member now wouldn't it?
Moving on, the owner seems to want to equate standing up for ones statutory rights as a form of 'intimidation'. I suppose they'd say thank you for a wonderful evening if they got mugged off for £50 with no recourse to action?
Be careful with your cash in this place, two of the bar staff are running a scam. After ordering a round of drinks last night I handed over a £50 note to the little tinker in the vest behind the bar, and while waiting for the change - the round came to 40 quid - instead of being given the change the girl who was also working presented the card machine and asked me to pay again. The little tinker first denied being given the 50 note, then tried to say I gave him a tenner, and then after we tried to set these scoundrels straight, they 'gave' us the drinks for 'free'. After the drinks we were then ejected by the bouncer, all the while the scumbags behind the bar were still denying that they'd pocketed the money. This place is run by scumbags, an immoral place that looks to take advantage of people after they've had a bit to drink. In a more honorable era this would of got sorted out in a proper way, but instead myself and the party of friends I was with were treated as if we were fools, even though we are upstanding people. Pure scumbags, hope the bottom falls out of this business. Don't spend your hard...
   Read moreSo I've read all positive reviews and decided to book a table and invite my friends to have a small birthday celebration. I was told that there is only one table left upstairs so I've asked the lady on the phone to see what they can do if there will be 6 or more people and that we don't mind standing in front of the table next to the bar. Guess where the table was allocated? Just next to the entrance door! So that there was no room for people to stand. I was very upset when I arrived and saw couples seated just in front of the bar with their coats hanging on the chairs and Bobby Fitzpatrick's staff telling me that there are no spare chairs. It was not crowded at all! I asked for extra puffs but my request was declined though they were not taken. The service was very slow and waitresses were hanging at the bar instead of serving the clients or at least cleaning the tables. I have asked more than three times to clean the table before getting the cake but this was never done. At the end my night was not as I thought it would be. We've spent about £250 on food and drinks. Pizza was not tasty, their signature cocktail Enrique the 5th came super sweet and the only thing I could taste was pineapple juice. VERY UPSETTING! WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. I want to drive your attention to the fact that all members of staff (except bartenders) were not friendly, not welcoming, not helpful AT ALL. They were not even smiling to customers. And of course they didn't go extra mile to make my...

I must now update one more time (yes, I'm still drunk) after meeting Meg from Melbourne (who hates the current occupier of the White House as much as I do)
Can't praise this lady, with her superb vase and butterfly tattoos, enough - excellent Angostura daiquiri, amazing Meg Tai and an appropriate 'El Presidente Trump' that was subconsciously made to look like that idiot in the White House. In the words of BlackAdder, I offer her my most enthusiastic contrafibularities.
Donnie - you may currently be El Presidente (no apologies for that being in Spanish), but you are forever a c word (and I don't...
