Shocking behaviour and the staff did nothing

Absolutely shocking behavior—avoid this place.I was completely disgusted by what I witnessed at the pub tonight. There were two people sitting right with the staff who were openly demeaning and insulting a customer, culminating in them calling the customer the c-word.What made the situation even worse was the total lack of accountability from the team. The staff did absolutely nothing to intervene, challenge the abusive language, or defuse the situation. Allowing that kind of toxic, vile behavior to happen right in front of them—while treating the perpetrators like friends—is completely unacceptable.A pub should be a welcoming environment, but the management and staff here clearly have zero control over the atmosphere and no regard for basic customer respect. I will definitely not be returning.

2nd visit no change

The service was good, unfortunately this is my second visit within 3 months and the food is still over cooked. The burgers were almost inedible due to being over cooked. The pasta dish was served luke warm.
