I went in today to watch the rugby but there was no seating close by the TV. I thought I'd have some food anyway. I was waiting at the bar for service 1st and as the barman made his way over a couple came to the bar as well. When I asked to see the menu I was directed to one of the tables. I walked away from the bar to pick up a menu and on my way back to the bar a lady walked up and was waiting for service as wel. I looked though the menu to make a choice now of course the couple got served first. When I wanted to order I next was told to 'hold on' and the lady also got served before me. I was finally able to place my order and when I was asked for my table number I realised the couple had taken the table I wanted. I indicated to them that I had wanted to sit there and I also expressed surprise as every body was getting served except me or so it seemed. The barman then said to me 'there is no need to rude'! I said to him I didn't think I had been he said he thought I had! I was lost for words. I should have asked for my money back and walked out really but I didn't have the wit to do this. The scampi and chips were fine, there wasn't much of the mushy peas on the plate and the girl who served me was nice. The barman kept looking at me with disdain throughout my visit. I'm a resident of Castle Road but I will not be visiting again. Nor can I recommend this pub.
