We had a very similar experience to "Frosty". We stopped off at this very nice looking pub for some lunch and waited at the bar for a good few minutes to be served. We went into the restaraunt area and the waitress who we believe to be the owner of the establishment told us in a very unfriendly manner to sit at a table set for 2. We asked if she minded if we sat at one of the tables set for 4 (It had approx 12 tables unoccupied at this time and 1 person sat in the bar) She spoke to us in a very abrupt way and told us in no uncertain terms that we were to sit where we had been told to.
We decided to leave our drinks and leave at that moment. When we asked if we could settle the tab and we asked her very politely why there was a problem seeing as they werent busy. She again was very rude and told us that nobody else in a couple in the restaraunt was allowed to sit anywhere but a table for 2 so we couldnt either and if we didnt like it then we should leave. (Which is exactly what we were doing)
Never have I experienced such rude, bad mannered and unfriendly customer service as we had that day. Its a wonder they get any custom at all while she is working there.
