"I've done a bit of shopping today and fancied a pint on ma way home, popped into ma local, about 5 minutets walk from where I live. "Have you booked a table" asked the barman. "No" I replied. "Then I can't serve you" he retorted. I wouldn't have minded, but there was only about 5 people in there, and it's quite a big pub, with an outside smoking area "Should have gone on your phone there and then and booked a table then lol | |||

"It's part of a lot of pubs current policy, as we are operating still on a restricted numbers basis" That's fair enough, but the pub that I called into can hold over 100 people, without any problem, but as I said, there's an outside smoking area with tables and a TV, there was hardly anybody in there.  | |||

"Should have gone on your phone there and then and booked a table then lol " If you're going for a sit down meal at a Restaurant, then I get it, but nipping in to an almost empty pub for 20 minutes? Good job there's a Mr Booze offie just opposite where I live  | |||

"I thought it was outside seating only for now? You have to pre-book around here, a max of 6 per table and restricted time allocated per booking. All drinks are ordered via an app or waitress at the table, no approaching the bar. The empty tables you saw may be allocated to another person within the next 15 minutes or so, therefore they can’t allow ‘walk-ins’ as they’d have to ask you to leave when the booked person arrives. It’s only for a couple of months, hopefully. Lou x | |||
