"It had been over a year since I ate in The Cooper Rose. I was shocked at how different my most recent experience was. After struggling to find a clean table, we picked a sticky one that had dirty cups on and moved them aside. We noticed that the side area next to the table was full of dust (everywhere was dirty). There was a queue as the place seemed understaffed, the poor guy behind the bar was rushed off of his feet. When I was finally served, I was informed that the Pepsi was from the fridge. I assumed it was an individual bottle but it was large bottles of Pepsi poured into pint glasses, this was annoying as it was still the same price. I did feel sorry for the bar man as he had grief for this (from others) and it was clearly not his fault. After ordering food a waitress approached our table and literally threw down our cutlery onto the really dirty side of table beside the used filthy cups. She said, “I dunno who’s having what?”Without giving us a chance to speak she slammed both plates down on the table and immediately turned her back and walked away. I was shocked at the lack of manners and inability to do the basic requirements of her job (she never returned to ask if we needed anything, or how the meal was either). The food was unsatisfactory. One of our meals was a cheese panini and we wondered if the kitchen had run out of cheese. I honestly couldn’t believe how appalling our visit was and will definitely not return."
