My Review

1 out of 10 stars
I was out on Saturday evening celebrating a friend’s engagement nearby to the Rising Sun pub. After finishing at a pre-booked venue, we moved to the pub and about 40 of us crammed into the pub and had a few drinks. My elbow inadvertently knocked over three glasses from a sideboard and I was shoved rather impolitely a dustpan and brush and told to clean it up, as I had made the mess. I was slightly surprised but nonetheless went about the job to keep the peace and on returning the dustpan and brush I commented that in future the glasses could be cleared away to prevent accidents like that happening. The landlord took exception to this, got extremely aggressive and refused service to us and anyone associated to me and then eventually told myself and a friend to leave the premises. Despite trying to reason with him, he clearly had no room for this and seemed determined to just get us out of his pub.

It was both a ridiculous and unprofessional attitude from the landlord. We were just honest people just trying to continue our fun evening with the newly engaged couple and weren’t remotely aggressive to the landlord in any way. In his position, I would have he would have been appreciative of the extra trade on what would otherwise have been a quiet Saturday night in that neck of woods. He did even try to get an innocent bystander involved to comment on what had happened and agree with him but he just seemed completely not bothered either way! I’m not going back there again, and if anyone feels particularly compelled please feel free to join me. I’m taking up the matter with the Sam Smith’s brewery to see what they say. Needless to say, I’m not going to let this affect my consumption of the wonderful Ayingerbrau!
