Chaos in Fitzies and the staff in there are really good, just some people act like they've never been in a pub before. Think one of them was on the verge of tears at one point. She was in the middle of serving someone and he just disappeared.
I then confused the barmaid in The Isis by asking for two and a half pints and she thought I wanted two half pints.
Full credit to anyone working yesterday and having to deal with pissed idiots (and I'm including myself in that
).

Glad I had them on yesterday mate in that heat
Aye my son walked to bar from middle of place and got ignored for ages . Staff serving the unofficial queue
The modern bar goer isn't used to that sort of level . Old schoolers remember the 3 deep glory days of pubs. I got served twice from behind someone by watching the bar staff like hawks and then shouting up . People chatting to mates at bar then fannying on getting sortedChaos in Fitzies and the staff in there are really good, just some people act like they've never been in a pub before.

Busiest I've seen the town in a long long time. They were still trying to clean the streets up at 11am. One bar ran out of all beer. Spirits and soft drinks only.

Great for the city and the pubs. But I couldn't think of out worse than spending my night in absolutely rammed packed places. Love a little pub with couple of people in

Exactly, it was about a shared experience . Most places had a nice sun spot outside once served .

Getting served is the only problem I have with it when it’s as busy as yesterday. Great for the feel and atmosphere mind, I just hate queuing for ages. Cooper Rose second floor was insane with a single file queue going almost to the top of the stairs to the roof terrace at several points pre match. They had to do that because it was blocking off the access to the stairs/toilets which they said is against fire regulations.
Was nice to tick off the National Reserve tbf, always wondered what it would be like because it doesn’t look the most appealing from the outside.

Just your standard club mate really. Go in and you’re into a corridor, bar room is on the left a few paces up. Smallish square room with tables and the bar is straight ahead slightly to the right from the door. Round of about 6 pints came to £24 so not as cheap as I was expecting, Cooper Rose is generally sub £20 for the same.
