Great Beer Garden, Bad Service
I've always heard great things about this place especially the lovely beer garden patio.
But their service was ridiculously bad even after complains. Not only the bartender let this couple cut in line of me because they've already have a shots tab going on, then he let another couple cutting in front of me after i've politely told him that i've been waiting in queue for a very long time. The bartender after serving the couple and went on his break. So i complain my wait to another bar staff, he just shud his shoulders in slow motion and said we're short staffed. Honey, that's not my problem, then serve customers faster! Finally it was my order, half pint of Fruli. The same slow motion bartender searching for half pint glass but they ran out, and asked if it's okay to pour into regular pint glass but just half way. I just wanted my beer, i don't care less. Thank God for being in Britain and we don't pay tips here!
Other than the terrible service, it was a very nice pub with great beer selection. They also carry Brothers Pear cider. At 10:30pm, they started kicking people out.
If it's wasn't for the Fruli, not sure if i'll go back again.
