The Worcester Park, Worcester Park

Absolutely appalling to see what has become of a once treasured pub. The Manager, Pierre, is a total thug, with his bar staff in terror of him and most of his customers. Not to mention that a very much loved regular and member of the community was assaulted there this week and the manager stood by and did nothing. Before anyone says anything about getting the police involved they already are. To make matters worse the person assaulted was then barred from the pub for calling the police ! Clearly it is apparent that the manager couldn't organise a p*** up in a brewery let alone run a pub properly. In all my years in the trade (10 to be exact) i have never seen such abhorrent behaviour from a man who claims to be in charge of the place and claims to be a licensee. I just hope that the company that own this pub get rid of the manager before anyone else is hurt, frightened or the pub declines even more. Only thing it has going for it is the great Bar Staff who through it all try so very hard to keep going.

what has happened ? was horrified to hear what had happened to the previous landlord and his family at the hands of the new regime. cant see how they can still claim to be a family friendly pub after this. at least you wont have to go far to see stuart and gemma as they have moved round the corner to the ladas.

wont be going back to the horse and will certainly be recommending to all my friends, family and business colleagues that they boycott it too. i, for one, will definately be spending my money at the ladas instead. at least i know i can get a friendly welcome from decent people there.

and as for good business practise giving a family 9 days to leave is not good business nor is it "family friendly". a shame another decent pub down the pan.

definately wont be going back.
