"I am a regular at this pub because of its great prices for drinks and food. I come here often, usually several times a week. My family and I eat here at least once a week. However, there is a big issue with the staff. There are many young employees who need to improve their service skills, especially in terms of knowing who to serve next. It is frustrating to see customers who have been waiting for a long time being overlooked while others are served before them. This "who's next?" question seems to be a common problem among all of the serving staff, as if it is a requirement of the job to ask it every time. This recurring issue happens every night, hour after hour. If the bar staff cannot be bothered to pay attention to who is next and consistently pass the responsibility onto the customers waiting to be served, it leads to problems, as I have seen multiple times. It is chaotic. I have witnessed customers arguing about who was next, often falsely accusing each other of cutting in line. Sometimes, only one barman is left to serve 8 or 10 customers while others go on break, which is unacceptable. Thankfully, some of the problematic female bar staff have left, and it seems that there are now younger male employees with a better attitude. Hopefully, things will improve."
