点评:At first glance, the pub looked charming and seemed like the perfect place for us to stop after a walk with our small dog. There was a sign on the door stating that up to two dogs were welcome at any one time. While one of us waited outside with our dog, the other went in to check that it was okay to bring her inside, and the landlady confirmed that it was.
When ordering our drinks—a Prosecco and a pilsner—the landlady suggested that the pilsner was quite sweet and recommended an alternative. We explained that we were familiar with it and were happy with our choice. She was quite pushy and condescending which wasn’t a great start.
We then took our drinks to the small, empty beer garden at the back of the pub. As we were securing our dog's lead to a chair, she was briefly unclipped and spotted a cat, causing her to run towards the back of the pub. We immediately went after her and repeatedly apologised, as we completely understood that this would have been an unexpected surprise.
Unfortunately, the landlady reacted by raising her voice, using offensive language towards us, and telling us that she was frightened of dogs. We remained calm throughout, requested a refund, which was provided, and left. The dog should not have run off, even if it was only for a moment, and we apologised immediately. However, we felt the situation could have been handled in a much calmer and more professional manner. Based on our experience, we would not return or recommend this pub. There was absolutely no need for the vile and abusive language the landlady used. True dog friendly pubs would understand this situation.
翻译:乍一看,这家酒馆十分迷人,似乎是我们带着小狗散步后歇脚的绝佳去处。门上贴着告示,说明最多允许两只狗同时进入。我们当中一人带着狗在门外等候,另一人则进屋确认是否可以带狗入内,女老板也确认说没问题。
点酒时——我们点了一杯普罗塞克葡萄酒和一杯皮尔森啤酒——女老板说那款皮尔森啤酒甜度较高,于是推荐了另一种饮品。我们解释说我们对此很熟悉,也对自己的选择感到满意。不过她显得相当强势且居高临下,这可算不上一个良好的开端。
随后,我们把饮料带到酒吧后面那个空荡荡的小啤酒花园里。就在我们把狗绳系在椅子上时,绳子意外松开了,狗狗看到了一只猫,便朝酒吧后面跑去。我们立刻追了上去,并连连道歉,因为我们完全理解这种状况对她来说肯定是个意想不到的意外。遗憾的是,女房东的反应却是大声吼叫、对我们使用冒犯性语言,还声称自己害怕狗。我们始终保持冷静,要求退款后也顺利得到了退款,随后便离开了。那只狗本不该跑走,哪怕只是片刻而已;我们也立刻道了歉。不过我们认为,整个情况本可以以更加冷静且专业的方式来处理。基于此次经历,我们不会再光顾这家酒馆,也不会向他人推荐它。女房东使用那些恶劣且侮辱性的言语完全没有必要。真正对狗狗友好的酒吧是能够理解这种情况的。
