But then you never like to let a fact get in the way of your shoddy and by now frankly embarrassing anti-immigrant narrative, do you? So tiresome.

Abe_froeman Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 That's a quite special rant Rendel, but there are two fairly obvious differences between the original ad and this second one... here is an excerpt from the original which im sure you took the trouble to read!"Part-timeThis job posting is no longer available on Indeed."

When it says it's no longer available, it presumably means the post has been filled. The posting proves that the job was advertised in English and that therefore uncleglen's claim that it is discriminatory is cobblers.

geh Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 popped in Sunday night, lovely couple of glasses of wine and some v tasty quite rustic (NB this is a compliment) tapas. Think it needs a bit of work, music was quiet, and card machine not working (a number of people walked away on reading this) but sure these teething issues will be sorted out soon. Will def go back and would recommend a visit.

cohen22 Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Thoroughly enjoyed the food. Reasonable too. A bit lacking in atmosphere and the d?cor needs finishing. Obviously a work in progress! One with though, I hope, a bright future.

d.b Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I agree, was very nice. Style feels like a proper little Spanish bar with tapas, I think it'll be great in summer.

madger Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I passed this yesterday and thought it looked nice so recommended it to someone I had staying, who fancied a glass of wine and some light food. She said that despite there only being about two people inside, when she sat down the woman behind the bar didn?t acknowledge her at all or come to ask her if she?d like anything in the 10 minutes she was sitting there, on her own. So after 10 morning minutes of waiting awkwardly, she left and went somewhere else. I think a tapas bar is a great addition to LL so am leaving this post in the spirit of hopefully helpful feedback and hope things improve, it looks cosy.

bonaome Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 If the woman behind the bar was Spanish, she was fully expecting your visitor friend to go up to the bar and order when she'd made her mind up, and was respectfully leaving her be, whilst she sorted herself out and made some decisions.

fishbiscuits Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 But we're not in Spain.Ordering food at the bar is not the norm here. If they expect customers to do so, they need to make it clear.If a genuine customer went in and left without eating or drinking anything, it's pretty hard to argue that they've not done anything wrong.

bonaome Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Wrong?They've missed out on a sale. I don't think it was an act of moral turpitude.We do order food at the bar here, all the time - it's the norm in bars, you order at the counter. Maybe not so much in ED? They probably think of themselves as a (tapas) bar, rather than as a restaurant. But I'm sure they'll adapt soon enough and work out how "Spanish" they can be; the fact that we are not in Spain, notwithstanding.My only fear is that the beer might be cold and good and the food might be tasty. If it is, unfortunately, that's my bank account in absolute tatters.

Duncs Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Does anyone know their opening hours? They don?t seem to have a website or even a telephone number that I can find online.

derwentgrove Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 This place is fun. More of a Spanish bar that does tapas than a restaurant but none the worse for that. Maria is friendly and attentive. The wine was good when we dropped in on Weds and the food was tasty. We do lack bars in ED so this feels like a welcome addition.

Sat at the bar with my back to the window and was transported to a warmer more relaxed place. absolutely spot on.

AdrianB Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Love it! Food, drinks, the welcome and the service were all wonderful. Particularly good were the chorizo in cider and the Santiago tart. Look forward to spending many an hour here. Best of luck, Maria & Co!

urbanfox Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 sounds great - does anyone know if there's a limit re kids in the evenings - ie do they have to be out by 7pm? (unlikely we'd be in much past that anyway but would be good to know if there was!)

Stalkey Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 4 of us spent the evening at Maria?s last Friday. We ate ?til we burst and had a great evening. Maria was charming. Our waitress was Spanish (who would have thought?!) and very attentive. We ordered at the bar which in fact was helpful as we got to chat to the staff in the kitchen who explained a few dishes to us and we will definitely be going back. What?s not to like? Good luck to a lovely new addition to LL!
