“Very aggressive and crazy staff! Antagonising and Fighting customers is literally an insane thing to do. Why anyone would want to go there is beyond reasoning. Worker called Chantelle needs to be fired immediately. Is this WWE ? I didn’t know y’all served pints with a side of punches and biting. Horrible place 🤮🤮🤮 …”

“Hostile environment , awful staff especially Chantelle who is aggressive and attacks customers for no reason. Buy a drink elsewhere. Avoid this place.”
- JJ
“One of the workers here called Chantelle is extremely aggressive and attacks people including their mothers at her own workplace?! How vile. The manager here needs to sit down and think twice about who they are employing as I would not feel safe or comfortable here buying a drink! Go elsewhere!”
- Wendy Tunnacliffe
