I don't want to get into personally slagging any individual off,what I will tell people is that the owner has since made personal threats towards myself which I find absolutely digusting,me and my friend were loyal members of staff working days off for no pay but to no avail,I personally paid for deliveries out of my own pocket on many occasions as the management never seemed to b around!!and now after leaving they are throwing accusations round which is totally unexceptible,there is much much more I could say but that's just not my style,when I work for an employer I always give 100% as does my friend

barrym, do not take this personally. the landlord in there is notorious for this kind of thing. it' s a total mystery how this pub is still going. i have yet to come across anyone with a good word to say about it.

if you now find yourself without work, have a wander into the 'george canning' on grove lane. the couple running it are terrific and they might be looking for a live-in chef/bar-man as the previous one has just left (under happy circumstances) to go travelling.

I'm not sure of the reason for your post, barrym but you say you have had threats made against you-that is a very serious allegation - not wise to do on a publib forum without offering any proof. I recall seeing you drinking and laughing with the management several times so can only assume the relationship has broken down quite recently. I hope the new year brings better for you.
O I have proof ok,tony made the threat to my second chef on sun,and mite I add he was there to collect money owed for deliveries I paid for months ago,needless to say we never received money for days owed,anyway to answer ur question yes I did drink with them many times till they started one by one turning on all the staff,gary twice in one week lost the plot with me shouting about a booking they were meant to confirm,I was head chef,he decided to belittle me while intoxacated infront of costomers..is that fair?and secondly my and my friend was living upstairs,with no form of heating at all,we both ended up sick for about 2weeks,wen we received electric heaters it was costing us 10pound per nite cus we had meters in our rooms so take what u like from that,u try living in them conditions, I will not b accepting being verbaly abused by a drunk man

Sounds like you're better off out of there. Letting rooms out above the pub with electric meters must be how they make their money.

    • Adding my recommendation for Niko too. Found his number on here and he came out at short notice on a busy weeknight to help us with a kitchen sink issue that had flooded our kitchen that day. Really helpful, responsive and went out of his way to fit us in and help us out. Very reasonably priced too - would thoroughly recommend!
    • Looks like it! Though according to the OP, they are "golden, hand-crimped parcels  packed with flavour" 😀 I don't understand. Admittedly my brain is functioning at a very low level at the moment. Does that mean various local shops get together and agree to offer a discount to anyone who shows them a receipt from one of the other ones dated the same day? I can't see what's in it for either of them, unless people shop somewhere they wouldn't otherwise have done just to get the discount. Is it for vaguely  linked things, say cheese from a cheese shop, wine from another shop? Showing my age there.  And then suppose it's always the same shop which people go to second to get the discount? What's in it for the first shop? People go there in order to get the discount in the second shop?
    • Local (especially independent) businesses should do like Wheelers Oyster Bar in Whitstable and offer a discount to anyone who can show them a receipt from Chacarero dated the same day.
    • Aria was great, he managed to come the same day after what had turned out to be a pretty long day at work and fix a really bad blocked pipe that needed to be resolved as soon as practicable. He’s lovely, professional and really helpful. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable plumber in the area. Thanks Aria!
