Not the nicest place in Crawley, beer okay but not as bad as Shades

Really disappointed with this pub's attitude to the recent England U21 games.
Last night, they had the semi-final against Holland showing on just one poxy screen in the corner -- no sound on -- despite at least a third and maybe more of the punters in at that the time clearly wanting to watch it.
And yet on all the other screens (and through the sounds system) they were playing the most bland, insipid, frankly irritating music you could imagine -- WHICH NOT A SINGLE PERSON WAS PAYING ATTENTION TO.
Whichever management goon decided this would be the best policy clearly is in the wrong job, and cost the pub a lot of money. Naturally I and I'm sure many others took our custom elsewhere.

what can you say about this place? hmmmm nice cocktails thats about it.
not very nice staff seem moody most of the time (they can't blame there hours i work 51 hours a week in one of the busiest places in town and i'm a full time student)
Takes you about an hour to finally be served and you'll get ice if you want it or not.
normally full of drunk football fans.
oh and the music is rubbish (the only exception being friday and saturday nights when they have a dj)

Another Chav spot in teh town overun by chav scum, truely dreadful.

Don't visit this pub! The scum on the door take a copy of your driving licence before they'll let you in. Want someone to steal your identity? Yes - then go to the Rat and Parrot.

This place is a dive.If you're into the usual yobbo trends this is the place for you.Anyone with an ounce of class should stay well clear.

Was kicked out of this pub (just like bestd) by ten past eleven last night. If they know kick out time is so early why do they serve pints right up until eleven?

I'm not too sure which pub "bestd" went to...The R&P is an absolutely fantastic pub and my local haunt, I wouldn't bother going anywhere else in Crawley, (unless you're in to necrophelia - then the Punch Bowl will be right up your alley - well, everyone looks comatose in there anyway). It's always got a lively atmosphere, good music & good natured staff NB) The only people I've ever seen being treated abruptly are the w*nkers that well and truly deserve it (think about it).

I would not normally bother writing a comment on these sites, but feel tat this pub is was so appauling i ha dto write.
I went on friday night for the first and last time.
Not only was the pub dirty and unclean, the barstaff were rude, inept and completely unsuitable for working with customers (not just one but three different ones!)
1/ Firstly we were kept waiting for 10 mins to get served whilst the first barmaid served and chatted to all her friends, ignoring other customers.
2/ at 10 to 11 I went to get berr and two shorts, only to be told 'they didnt have any glasses for shorts!! This is a pub for christs sake?? then thinking what else to get was told to 'hurry up, theres other people waiting'! the sheer rudeness and attidue was beyond belief. Maybe if some of the barstaff had been working and cleaqring glasses from the dirty tables there may well have been some glasses.
3/ following this i went to the bar upstairs to try and get the drinks i wanted and was greted by a barstaff sucking a lollipop (no prob with that). However after asking for my drinks i could only understand her response, on the third attempt when she decided she could be bothered to remve the lollipop from her mouth!
all the others i could live with and wouldnt expect anything less from such a pub in Crawley, but the final straw had to be the thick, neanderthal bouncer, who, clearly had not been on a customer awareness training course, and was unable to string more than three words together without using the words *unt, fu*kers, f*cking wa*kers etc.
happy to take your money off you at 2 mins to 11 for more drink, the lights come on and evryone is hearded to the door by 5 past.
Knowing this was coming we preempted the move and went dowwn to the door.
We were out the pub byy 10 past!!! following a wholely unacceptable torrent of abuse from the bouncer for absolutely nothhing. whilst trying to reason with him, asking if we could stay at least until 20 past (legal drinking up time) to finnish our drinks, we were told to f*ck off, get out you w*nkers etc.
whilst i accept bouncers have a job to do in clearing the pub and sometimes may get a bit of resistance, the way this guy treated us - paying customers, was completely disproportionate, and i have rarely been so offended for doing nothing in my life.
This guy shoul dlose his job and he clearly cannot and doesnot know how to deal with customers.
Ok rant over, feel better now, but needless to say, the sooner pubs and people running them close down the better for normal drinking custoomers, like you and me!

More astmosphere on the moon.

Used to be a Green Shield stamp shop (ask your granny if you're interested in what this means). Totally bog-standard pubco pub. A local urban legend has it that, one night, every one of the cubicles in the ladies toilets was blocked by a fat slapper having passed out in there!
