I get invited to visit a lot of
pubs in my voluntary work for CAMRA; but what I don’t appreciate is not being
welcomed when I make an effort to visit a pub when they’ve specifically asked
me to come and visit. The pub had undergone a refurbishment and had tried to
create a look that was a standalone gourmet restaurant that is separate to its
adjoining hotel. I was originally told that they were interested in taking out
an advert in our local magazine, and to host one of our meetings. I decided to
visit on a Thursday night when things weren’t too busy. I arrived at the bar
and ordered a pint where it seemed to be a bit of an Old Boy’s club. I
introduced myself to the young barmaid and asked to speak to the manager and a
woman came back asking what the problem was. I showed her the magazines and she
said that she would get in touch, but I haven’t heard anything from them since.
But the beer was very good.
