1/5 UNITED COLOURS OF M. 1 year ago on Google • 19 reviews
Hired
the
venue
event
there
on
Saturday
start
time
8pm,
the
venue
a
few
days
before
our
event
informed
us
we
have
to
start
later
because
of
football
and
they
will
now
be
screening
the
match,
we
protested
that
this
was
not
what
we
signed
up
for
and
demanded
that
our
event
stay
as
contracted.
The
venue
agreed
and
said
they
would
not
be
showing
the
game.
Unfortunately
upon
arriving
at
the
venue
at
6:50pm
to
set
up
our
event,
we
were
greeted
but
the
most
unfriendly
and
hostile
door
staff
I’ve
ever
had
the
privilege
of
encountering,
we
were
searched
thoroughly
like
we
were
drug
mules,
finally
we
entered
the
premises
to
discover
the
venue
lied
and
was
indeed
still
showing
the
England
v
France
match!!!
At
this
point
I
can
only
laugh….
Anyway
we
were
then
quizzed
and
pacified
to
allow
what
was
blatantly
advertised
as
an
event
to
go
on
along
side
ours.
At
this
point
we
started
to
realise
this
venue
and
it’s
staff
were
totally
unprepared,
unprofessional
and
at
times
careless
about
the
fact
we
had
180
people
attending
an
event
at
their
venue
they
were
only
focused
on
the
40
people
there
for
the
game.
We
literally
had
to
set
up
downstairs
ourselves
arrange
furniture,
clean
up
as
there
was
half
drunk
mouldy
drinks
and
cups
scattered
between
chairs
and
tables
which
also
look
like
they
had
not
been
cleaned
in
months.
Our
event
that
was
due
to
start
at
8pm
we
had
to
beg
for
a
member
of
staff
to
man
the
bar
that’s
supposed
to
serve
our
patrons,
we
had
a
BOGOF
offer
on
cocktails
8-9pm
but
unfortunately
to
get
these
you
had
to
go
all
the
way
back
upstairs.
Finally
our
event
began
and
it
then
materialised
the
exhortation-ate
prices
that
the
staff
would
make
up
at
any
point
I
paid
between
£12-15
for
the
same
drink,
I
purchased
a
shot
that
cost
me
£6
but
then
when
I
purchased
12
shots
for
my
team
I
was
swiftly
charged
a
massive
£96
(£8
a
shot)
instead
of
£72.
The
toilets
ohhhhh
the
toilets,
they
are
disgustingly
nasty,
how
can
a
toilet
have
no
soap,
no
tissue,
no
hand
driers
instead
there’s
a
guy
in
there
with
contactless
payment
and
a
big
roll
of
blue
tissue
expecting
you
to
pay
to
dry
your
hands???
All
in
all
I
wish
I
read
the
reviews
before
booking
this
venue
as
they
all
are
definitely
true!
Book
and
attend
this
venue
with
caution.
