Although the Wine Bar is sporting a 'new improved' menu WITH a children's selection and the staff are helpful and friendly...
...BE WARNED...
THIS IS NOT A FRIENDLY PLACE TO GO... We left in disbelief early Friday evening after a barrage of verbal abuse from the owner no less.
We were sat outside having a glass of wine minding our own business while our 10 week old daughter slept in her pram when we were asked to move by the staff because the pram was blocking the enterance to the flats upstairs. A simple enough request you would think, apart from it wasn't the pram blocking the enterance it was the chairs that customers were sat on. We were assisting the staff when the owner butted in, and then when questioned whether the chairs would be moved he began to abuse us with statements like 'are you f***ing stupid or something' and 'I don't want your sort here anyway'.
It was clear to us that it wasn't that anything to do with blocking access to the flats, it was the simple fact this our pram did not fit in with this rude obnoxious man's image that the bar should be portraying.
I find it rather confusing that you can promote a childrens menu and then make families feel so unwelcome. My advise is DO NOT VISIT THE WINE BAR and line this mans pockets, especially if you are thinking of taking children for a meal, you are not welcome.
