My first visit today on a quiet lunchtime; stood at the bar with another customer who had been there a minute or two and wanting to buy food. Four staff stood gossiping at the other end of the bar while we were waiting. Then another customer arrived, who told us that this was normal and is why most regular customers have gone elsewhere. While the three of us stood there for another two or three minutes, three of the four female staff walked past us, not acknowledging our presence, and disappeared through a door at the back of the bar. The fourth barmaid then wandered into the pub leaving the serving side empty. After returning to her post, she served the first customer, taking, trust me, over five minutes, during which time several other customers were waiting.etc etc. when returning for the next round the service was equally appalling. How do they keep customers. I've never encountered such such disdain from staff in a pub....
