We have been let down/ stiffed by what we believe to be a large fake booking for today They strung us along all week with queries and increased the numbers over n over. It was deliberate and calculated We spent so much time trying to accommodate them, rebuilding the table plans, ordering in extra food, especially for them, turning away genuine bookings for regulars and locals in the meantime, and then when it came to taking a deposit, they just tried to bluff it Only for a bit of intuition would we be left with an empty restaurant and lots of food left over, and a demoralised team It’s so hard. We try so hard to make our guests happy, only to get shafted Yes, it’s our fault. We should have got a deposit from the get-go But they were so convincing they had us focused on menus and allergens etc It’s so tough to swallow after a long week Anyway, we let our guard down, not even that we were trying to be hospitable. It’s in our nature My own belief is that it was somebody in the trade being a snake 🐍 and I’ll get to the bottom of it, but for now, it’s time to try and save the day It would be great to fill those tables, so if you fancy a nice bit of nosh today, you’ll be doing us a solid michaels.ie I’ve just released the tables now, and we’ll do a full rejig when we get in It’s a sickening way to start a Sunday, I couldn’t sleep I was so upset But we’ll pump on the music and get stuck in To dickhead bluffer, I’ll get ya ya prick
