Specials were good but the bounty bar cocktail was absolutely out of this world good. Spectacular select...

😠 I put my hand up to show that I was waiting to be served. Then when I was finally served the barmaid was rude to me for no reason, other than she took offence to me raising my hand to get her attention.
