Literally shocking behaviour! Friday late afternoon My phone ran out of battery and unfortunately I did not have any cards or cash. I know quite unfortunate. As I was not able to hail a cab I went I the pub to ask for assistance. I said that Im stranded and I have no way of getting home, if they could charge my phone or call me a cab that would be really helpful. She looked back at two other colleagues and everyone said NO! I was so shocked that they refused to help, I asked again if they at least charge few percent of the battery. She said : we have TWO CHARGERS, and they are in use!

EDIT: I was the only one there, hence I’m not even going to read the...

I confess - I never ate there, the food looks like classic pub grub, but then again Tabard never claimed to be a gastropub. It features various entertainment activities (quiz, live music etc) and somebody runs their very wholesome...
