Wel,l coffee or not coffee - customer service is customer service.
In my opinion that's what counts in a pub. If the customer service is as bad as there, even having the biggest and the best range of beers and drinks, 15 big plasma TV's showing all kinds of sports and half naked pole dancers on the bar won't help...

Woodins Shades, Liverpool Street

Some time ago I went there with some friends for an evening coffee.
We were served by an old guy, probably Italian. I think he was the manager as the rest of the bar staff was trying to stay as far away from him as possible...
Anyway, two of us went to the bar, the guy obviously hitting on us, started to make rude(but probably nice in his opinion), sexist comments, it made us feel very uncomfortable. When we failed to show any interest in him, he got very upset and while making our coffees he started to take it out on one of the bartenders.
When he finally finished we asked if we can have some suggar - which he gave us, but then when we were going back to our table he said to the same bartender "They are sooo fat they shouldn't eat suggar, look at her ass!"... I looked back, and what he did?!? He waved and smiled to us as if nothing happened!!!
I don't know if that was a sign of total stupidity and/or lack of personal hygiene because of which he was unable to hear how loud he was speaking, or just bad manners.... Personally - I don't care. Hovewer I am planning to write a complain to the pub's company and NEVER EVER go there again.
Would recomend that pub only to an enemy.
