点评:So, the good news.
The pub is open, and a round is still cheap. The staff are perfectedly pleasant. The food looks good. The fire was on downstairs, very cosy.
The bad news?
We went on a Friday night and there was NO ONE upstairs. Literally no one. There were about 7 people downstairs. It was like drinking in a church. I have pictures from happier times. I'll share them. This is what it used to be like, pub chain owner. They are clearly taken at Christmas some years ago.
The owners' idiotic rules ruin this place. Its right next to a park; dogs are banned. So they're all across the road in the other pub, which was busy.
Mobile phones are banned. So folks were nipping outside to take messages. No, that's not the digital detox the owner clearly thinks it is. It's just annoying.
I used to be a regular, along with a gang of mates. I came here for old times' sake. I won't return until the owner recinds his stupid, petty, business-ruining rules.
I feel sorry for the staff who put up with it. I wouldn't.
翻译:所以,好消息来了。
酒吧营业了,一轮酒仍然很便宜。员工们都非常热情友好。食物看起来不错。楼下壁炉燃着,非常舒适。
坏消息呢?
我们周五晚上去的,楼上一个人也没有。真的一个人也没有。楼下大概有7个人。感觉就像在教堂里喝酒一样。我有一些更快乐时光的照片。我会分享的。这就是以前的样子,连锁酒吧的老板。这些照片显然是几年前圣诞节拍的。
老板们愚蠢的规定毁了这家酒吧。它就在公园旁边;禁止携带狗。所以它们都跑到马路对面的另一家酒吧里,那里人很多。
手机也被禁止使用。所以人们会溜到外面留言。不,这可不是老板自认为的数字戒毒。只是很烦人。
我以前是这里的常客,和一帮朋友一起。我来这里是为了追忆往昔的时光。除非老板撤销他那些愚蠢、琐碎、毁掉生意的规矩,否则我不会再来。
我为那些忍受这一切的员工感到难过。我不会。
