Quality local pub. Serves decent food at reasonable prices. Probably would not travel far for this palce but as a convenient local it is good

Attended for a friends 30th birthday drinks. Was served rather quickly. Unfortunately this was the only plus. Whilst being served, the staff didn't appear to care about the requirements of the customer, which was apparent when I was met with a hand and asked "Gis a sec" while a mobile phone was seen to before the customer was. In addition to this, I understand that any job has it's own stress factor, however no amount of stress at work should allow you to freely swear in front of a packed establishment. What if there had been children about?
This brings me on to my next point. The party of people I was with were advised that due to the lack of identification, we would need to be off the premises by 9pm. Just to clarify, only 1 of us was underage. I understand the legalities around this and fully respect the owners right to enforce these rules. The issue I have is consistency. Approximately quarter to 9 the bar person came out to advise us we had to leave. When we advised that we still had 15 minutes we were presented with a dirty look and walked away from. Then as soon as it was 9, we were making out way away to be met again by the bar person who aggressively advised us that we needed to go now! We were, so we did. My problem is that this person then walks past 3 tables of families with children of clearly primary and middle school age and said nothing. This is not a fair way to treat customers.
Not a good first impression Kingfisher!
Sad to say I will not be returning in the future.

I have drunk here since the day it opened 32 year's ago it needs a good clean and a landlord who cares plus a brewery who think the customer matters
