The Harbour Moon, West Looe

We visit Looe 3 or 4 times a year and this used to be our favourite pub in town. It has the best views, a good choice of beers, and a well priced menu of quality food.
Sadly changes over the last year or so mean we only visit if the weather is good and we can sit outside. The layout lacks charm and makes the pub feel souless, the bar staff have a couldn't care less attitude and the food is not what it used to be. The bar itself smells of stale beer and the large TV screens are a distraction. I also resent being served food by minors, who the hell thiks that is acceptable??
They also used to do a good selection of beers which were well kept but on the two recent visits there has only been a limited choice of beer with 1 or 2 barrels on the end of the bar, not sure what that is all about.
Overall, the pub is in sad decline and I can fully understand why none of the locals frequent it these days. Bad attitude,bad seating, no atmosphere and management that seem to have lost the plot. (Still the best view though so 3 stars for that)
