Turbo Pub, Gran Canaria

Don't ever eat or drink in this place the land lady Beith is a nasty piece of work! My friend and I went for some food there then for a few drinks. The food was not cooked right and some of it was still raw, also our glasses we were drinking with were so dirty, was if they were not even cleaned! We complained to the land lady who was called Beith. Instread of trying to address the problem she was very insulting and rude, saying it was nothing to do with her and not her problem, we then noticed that she and her friend the DJ chris seemd to be making fun of myself and my friend as the treatment we get was a total joke to them. My friend later that evening was very sick. I had to take him to the Cl�nica Roca, to get checked out by a doctor, who informed us that he had food food poisoning. my friend was then moved to the local hospital at San Roque. After this we just both really just wanted to return back to the UK. Thank God we had insurance. We both still cannot believe the way we were treated. This was no laughing matter. We are now both back in the UK. This had totally runed are Hoilday. Not sure if we ever want to return to Gran Canaria, if we do we well defo not go near turbo or the Europa centra.

Dicey Reillys, Gran Canaria

This Pub is not Irish in anyway! it is everything that is so not Irish. The bar is owned not my any Irish person but a person called Yan who we were told is spanish and owns a load of different bars a pubs around Puerto Rico. The staff told us how badly they are treated by this man. They get 40 euros for a ten hour shift and get no contract which is illegal under spanish law. When they authorities come around looking to see documentation they are fired and new staff are taken on. This is a disgrace, These young people come across from Britain and Ireland thinking they will have a better life, but saddly end up working for this man and put in a very vulnerable situation. The BBC are doing an undercover report about this at the moment which will be aired in the Autumn.
