I went here with my friend and our 4 children from the moment we walked in we didn’t feel welcome. It’s the worst place I have ever been to in my life I cannot even begin to start or share our experience without being angry. We arrived for an early dinner as we know some weatherspoons have a cut off time for kids fair enough. We were here from London as my friend owns a holiday home locally. So we would essentially be repeat customers. After asking at least three staff and 15 minute wait we got a half cleaned table fair enough we went to the bar to order some drinks. Having purchased drinks only to be told oh you cannot give them to your 20 year as she doesn’t have physical ID fair enough. Why not tell me before I placed the order? We then said ok take these two drinks as we won’t drink them now don’t want you have an issues so told in a rude way you need to pay we didn’t care at all paid and handed them back full. Order our starter eat those. Then I ordered on the app only to have the manager to come over and tell me that after one drink he wasn’t going to serve us no more “they couldn’t monitor who was drinking what” also then told we drove there according to “someone”. So he was only singling us out from the whole pub actually people that were spending money. So I asked him to explain and I was very polite did not loose my temper at all when most would.

1. How do you know we are over the limits sorry after order three drinks first time and one cocktail essentially pouring two drinks away? Sorry do you run a pub that’s not over the limit nor did we have a drink before coming to the pub. So one cocktail the smallest amount of alcohol and one double between myself and my friend is over the limit one drink each.
2. My 20 year has a driving licence and insurances to drive the car probably hard to believe also 101 possibilities came into my head. So I didn’t know it was your job to watch how people arrive nor did I think the manager was the police. My daughter whom wasn’t allowed to drink was going to drive us home. Not that I need to explain.
3. No one else was of colour in the pub only our table was singled out sorry I am not playing the race card but it’s something that makes you think. Having discussed with others they agree. Especially when the manager agreed I showed him respect and gave him the drinks when others wouldn’t do that. So where was your respect for me sorry maybe we didn’t fit.
4. Why didn’t you tell us when we got there not this was the case. What was it your customers didn’t like us spending money or what was it as still the next morning I don’t understand.
5. Yes my friend I pay my taxes and work very hard and yes we do own a nice car as we work hard so maybe instead of wasting you time on us educate your customers.
6. You practically kicked us out of the place without eating which to me is still a shock you didn’t want us there so just say sorry I didn’t know that us sitting in a corner quietly eating was going to be an issue, really scary two women with their 4 kids 20 year old , 16 year old , 13 year and 4 year old. We did get a refund for our mains and drinks thanks for doing to the so quickly.

I have never been embarrassed in my life and it’s something that my kids shouldn’t have to experience especially at this age when the younger three are learning about society. You have really disappointed us and I would recommend to anyone going there not to go it’s the worst experience ever. Having experienced different cultures and been to different countries never expected this from the one that I have lived in my whole life.

I wish I could give a zero to this place as they don’t deserve to be open the manager didn’t even care about how we felt and was proud and when I said I am going to leave a review he said “ok”.
