I think it was 2 or 3 sisters and maybe a brother who worked there. Seemed pretty competent.
Sounds like a new boss coming in, discovering some previously accepted practices and cracking down far too strongly.

I’ve no idea what happened.
I’m just surmising - as is the wont here. I just know that I would have reacted to certain circumstances differently in my early days here than I would now - with a little knowledge of language, culture etc.

So it has been sold? I didn't realise it was for sale. Seems like the old owner is doing the replies, anyone know who the new owner is?
It appears that half of PP's great unwashed are leaving negative reviews and will be voting with their feet by refusing to turn up to the free beers on offer at 6:30pm-7pm and taking their business elsewhere.....

The owners should look at what happened at the Pickled Parrot. From a busy and well run boozer with nice friendly staff, to virtually empty every night. The staff make the venue much of the time.

Pickled Parrot redid their menu too for some reason. I went in for breakfast and the new menu only had one Western choice- Eggs Benedict- and some Asian choices.Bosco wrote:The owners should look at what happened at the Pickled Parrot.

I was given a doorbell to ring to get the staff's attention even though I was the only customer.

Haha, I was in a place in SR with the doorbell system. Also I was the only customer.gavinmac wrote:Pickled Parrot redid their menu too for some reason.

The problem was that my doorbell didn’t work, and the 3 staff spent ten minutes trying to fix it rather than take my order. It was like a monty python sketch, they even took the bloody thing apart with a screwdriver. I waited over ten minutes drinking the free water and reading my emails until I got fed up and just strolled off. I’m not even sure they noticed me leave.

I used to go to showbox regularly, but haven't been in a while. They're a nice family. Would be interesting to know the facts.

Regardless of the acts the owner(?) does me not want to visit the place. Insulting posters in the worst possible way shows a complete lack of prfessionalism.

I thought the Pickled Parrot fell apart because Graham was discovered to be defrauding his partners. What is Showbox?

More bullshit rumour mongering from Ken Svay, who, as usual, wouldn't have a friggin clue.
