A horrendous experience , visited Friday afternoon with a friend it was quiet so we sat ourselves down

Within minutes we are approached by a very confrontational and pedantic male member of staff demanding we complete a raft of instructions and protocols relating to "covid-19"

Not sure if the uplands tavern are aware but all legal restrictions on social contact were lifted for outdoor spaces on the 17th of July

We had absolutely no obligation to complete anything yet we were spoken to as if we were outlaws and told it was "company policy"

Quite frankly this nonsense has gone on long enough some businesses in hospitality are demanding far far too much from customers who are simply looking to relax and have a good time

I do not go to a pub to be told i need to complete an hours worth of electronic paperwork and other nonsense just to get a drink

We left this establishment without spending a penny and i doubt we will ever return

What a wonderful way to run your business in "hospitality"

And before someone replies with " oh we are just doing what the government is telling us"

It's high time these establishments stand up for themselves ( some are ) and say no sorry it's gone on long enough
