Baiting Hollow Farm Vineyard的点评
点评:To finish Lisa’s birthday weekend, we decided to visit Baiting Hollow Farm Vineyard on Long Island — a place we’ve enjoyed many times in the past.
We were warmly greeted by a bartender and told to sit anywhere. There were only a few people inside. As we settled in, a manager abruptly approached us, visibly agitated, saying, “I can’t! I can’t! I can’t! This has to move. I can’t have this blocking my aisle.” He was referring to our dog, Minn-Erva who had just calmly sat down beside us as she always does.
We had just arrived. The establishment was nearly empty. There was no obstruction or issue — yet the tone and delivery were unnecessarily confrontational.
Rather than allow the situation to escalate, we chose to leave. Sometimes when you’re made to feel unwelcome, the best decision is to walk away.
We won’t be returning after this interaction. In hospitality, attitude matters — and the way guests are approached can make or break a business.
Thankfully, our day was turned around by the welcoming atmosphere at LIVS (Long Island Vodka Spirits) and Jason Vineyards in Jamesport NY where we were treated with genuine courtesy.
Choose your representatives wisely — they are your brand.
翻译:为了给丽莎的生日周末画上圆满的句号,我们决定去长岛的贝廷霍洛农场酒庄(Baiting Hollow Farm Vineyard)——我们以前去过很多次,都很喜欢那里。
一位调酒师热情地接待了我们,并让我们随便找个位置坐下。当时酒庄里只有几个人。我们刚坐下,一位经理就突然走过来,语气明显很激动,说道:“不行!不行!不行!这东西必须挪开。我不能让它挡住我的过道。”他指的是我们的狗米恩-埃尔瓦(Minn-Erva),它像往常一样安静地坐在我们旁边。
我们刚到不久。酒庄几乎空无一人。没有任何阻碍或问题——然而,经理的语气和措辞却显得毫无必要地咄咄逼人。
为了避免事态升级,我们决定离开。有时候,当你感到不受欢迎时,最好的选择就是离开。
经历了这次之后,我们不会再来了。在酒店服务业,态度至关重要——对待客人的方式决定着企业的成败。
幸好,我们在纽约州詹姆斯波特的长岛伏特加酒厂 (LIVS) 和杰森葡萄园 (Jason Vineyards) 感受到了热情友好的氛围,受到了真诚周到的款待,让我们原本糟糕的一天得以扭转。
请谨慎选择您的代表——他们代表着您的品牌。
