"We went for dinner this evening and sat on benches to the back and side of the pub. Whilst we cannot complain about the food, which was really very good, the whole experience was ruined by a group of young children playing with a leather football in the area in which we and many other people were eating. There is an abundance of play equipment for children in this area, which our own children were enjoying, however there were at least eight boys playing football literally around the tables at which people were dining. We moved once, after our table was hit and drinks knocked over. My partner was then hit in the stomach by the ball. We asked a member of staff politely if someone could tell the children to take the ball elsewhere and we were told the children would be spoken to. We did not see this happen and the children continued to play. Shortly after, we saw the ball hit the windscreen of a car in the car park. Whilst I understand that this is a family pub (and we came with children! , surely there should be a policy that restricts children playing football amongst the tables that people are eating at? We spent a lot of money on food and drink this evening and couldn’t enjoy any of it for fear our plates and glasses would be knocked over at any minute by a leather football and our requests that those playing be asked to stop were ignored."
