Summary: Buy your jagerbombs and get before the manager calls you a good for nothing scrounger.
The scene: empytish bar, I've been there a couple of hours and bought a couple of soft drinks (I don't drink). Using a computer.
Manager (unclear that he's the landlord): Do you want anything to drink? Me: Oh will you get it for me (i.e do you do table service) Manager: It would be nice if you actually paid some money. (Annoyed) Me: I've spent five pounds in drinks, how much is a reasonable amount of money to pay? (Annoyed) Manager: I'm not arguing [walk away after I pack up to leave]
In his defence, he probably didn't see me buy two drinks and just assumed that I was a good for nothing freeloader because I was wearing a hoodie, and decided to pick an argument because he didn't like the look of me.
He might like to bear in mind that I was using a computer in his emptyish pub because I was hit by a car and had to moved to a kind of rubbish room (in terms of chairs and company) next to my work (as a seniorish computer programmer for an algorithmic trading company) because I was on crutches for six months.
Anyway, this probably won't happen to you if you buy your jagerbombs and get out. Personally, I'd quite like to encourage a few of you to buy your jagerbombs across the road.
In summary, Manager acted like a bit of a cad, probably a little prejudiced, consider going...
Read moreIf you are looking to be neglected and having troubles ordering this is the perfect place to go and ruin your evening. I went there last sunday, as a friend told me that the place was good for having a chat and enjoy some beers. Well let me tell you... it was a disaster, from 5 orders we did 4 went wrong, they indeed loved repeating mistakes over and over..
One of the main reasons I am so furious is because my friend order a promotion of 30 chicken wings for 12.99 .. no bad is it..? there were 5 of us, so the deal was convenient for all of us. Then my friend paid and couple of minutes later we received 10 chicken wings and we were charged 8.99. THAT IS RIDICULOUS!!!! yes because we insisted we wanted the deal... so we spoke with the girl in charge and it was worst: bad customer service, she claimed she was right not us... anyway THATS NOT FAIR..
In case you are wondering to go to THE GREEN pub in Uxbridge road, well remember this post and go the pub right in front, I had a BLACK experience..hope you be...
Read moreBeen a regular here on match days over the years but not anymore! The beer is awful and over priced , they now only have 3 staff working on a match day ( 1 of those usually away from the bar collecting glasses) , the mens toilets are a disgrace , graffiti all over the walls and toilet roll placed on the floor covered in p**s, ever thought l of investing in a toilet roll holder ? The last straw was yesterday when I got asked to give up my table and had to stand for the rest of my stay as it was apparently “reserved “ . I sat there for a good 45 mins from 12.30 , there was no sign on the table or any other tables for that matter and when I questioned it the reply was they forgot to put the signs out . Well sorry that’s not my problem and I’m guessing the apparent “reserved table for 2 “party were late , in which case you should’ve let me be and accommodated them downstairs Because of this you have now lost 5 of us and we’ll be spending our money in the Defectors...
