“PARKING - completed the machine inside the pub on arrival yet still received a ticket, have called the pub 3 times, called in once and emailed twice and still waiting on the manager calling me back - apparently if I can prove I was there, in the pub they can reverse the fine but we paid cash!!! Can you just reply to my email and at least communicate to me - decent pub but this parking issue is not good!!!”
- Vaughan
