Staff were horrendous when customers were rude and behaving in appropriately towards myself and friends. We were mostly sober, hoping to enjoy some karaoke when other customers started behaving inappropriately and making us uncomfortable. Staff were unsupportive and made us feel unwelcome. One star is not little enough, if you are young and female do not go this is not a safe place.

It's Theo!

Usually me and my friend go to brown cow, I have autism so I always wear shorts due to sensory needs. I was wearing some long denim shorts today, like usual, and this time I wasn’t allowed in.This is only a bad review because it is completely ridiculous. I understand jogger shorts being tooo too casual but come on. Smart denim shorts should have been absolutely fine. I cannot wear trousers due to sensory problems. I should still be allowed to have a nice night out with my friend and not be discriminated against for something I cannot control. Every other time I’ve been fine so why now? Allow people with neuro disabilities to present how they’re most comfortable! I shouldn’t have to dress uncomfortable to be allowed to have a good night.

If I could give no starts I would. I’m a uni student and went on a Friday night as they were advertising karaoke so thought it would be fun. Was I wrong. As soon as we walk through the door a group of lads instantly start sexualising us and calling us like dogs. Upon entering we are unwelcome at the bar and are quickly told we need to order quick as they were “not a youth club” despite us entering seconds before hand. Before we could even get an order in a group of men are instantly harassing us trying to get closer and not leaving us alone. Whilst this is occurring I can hear the bar staff asking eachother when we were leaving and not being supportive at all as if we were the problem. If you’re a student and looking for somewhere to go on weekends I do not recommend this at all! If you want to feel sexualised and harrased by not only locals but also bar staff this is your place, however if you’re a student looking for a safe and supportive place to go I’d suggest the penny bank across the road!

Unfortunately in our current economic climate, this pub is a great place to visit but struggles to stay open. It is a fun and quirky pub and I really enjoyed my visit.
