The Beehive — Restaurant in London

After years of warnings from close friends and family about the blatant racism at this venue, I finally gathered the courage to visit my local pub. I honestly regret it. The experience was appalling, I didn’t even get far enough to order a drink.

I went in to ask about the happy hour and stood at the bar for 5–10 minutes, completely ignored, despite the place being nearly empty. Two male staff members looked me directly in the eyes and turned away with a visible look of disgust. It was cold, deliberate, and frankly humiliating. Only after that did a female staff member finally acknowledge me and respond. By then, I had already decided to leave.

I wouldn’t outright call it racism, but there is absolutely some kind of prejudice at play, and that is unacceptable in any setting, let alone a community pub.

I had been on a cannel boat rave the previous night and lost my wallet but a kind soul from insta who included me in their documentary found it and is posting it back anyway I digress. I defs recommend this place if you got lost after going to a pharmacy and you need to ground yourself with an old friend before making...

Came here on a Monday night for a date night and I have to say it wasn’t a pleasant experience… they had a great selection of beer wine and spirits however the service of one particular employee ruined our experience… we approached the bar and were waiting for nearly 10minutes before being served which is fine but it was the blonde female worker who was very rude… stood behind the bar on her phone and just completely ignored us while occasionally making uncomfortable eye contact with us just to then continue to play on her phone… other members of staff were friendly but it wasn’t enough to forget the rude female...
