How do the apples feel about having to hang about longer than 7 days in your old dusty old fruit bowl. You say they are fine....perhaps. It's all about you isn't it ?

To be fair, from the way the chef chipped in on FB, I'm not sure she was aware that orders had been stopped ahead of 9, which makes it seem like a front of house decision.
Crescent Road - it first re-opened as "Opening Soon" which was, supposedly, a private members' dining club. They've since renamed to "The Dining Room" doing, from what I can tell, mainly small plates. Somewhat strangely they still seem to want to charge people for membership claiming that non-members can only eat at certain times. For that reason, I can't be bothered.

Ahh ok fair enough. Still, your indecisiveness requires improvement
It wasn't indecisiveness - we were out for the evening and in no rush! Drinking and talking was taking priority over choosing food.
To be honest I normally just vote with my feet after these incidents. I have no problem (after generally having a polite chat with them as to my disappointment) just going somewhere else.
Now I like Craft the pub in Brighton but after being kept waiting by the barman on a couple of occasions whilst he is gabbing to another customer about .... all ( I was ear wiggling ) and after having a little chat about the service and the lack of beers actually on cask I and our little gang have moved on to the Beer Dispensory on match days.
I got left for 40 mins before anyone bothered to come over after having secured a table to eat in the Bridge in Shoreham the other night so had a word and off we went.
F..uck em. If they can't be arsed then on to the next one.
I'm feeling better now. This is a bugbear of mine if you hadn't noticed.

Understood.
It's a genuinely decent pub, evidenced by the fact we stayed there until midnight.

It's your fault for going out improperly dressed. You should know by now that you gave to go out wearing a Homberg, large dark glasses, wrap a scarf around your face and wear gloves and a long flowing coat. Duh!
That's Facebook. Some would give the contrary view to anything. We're spoilt by the more reasoned NSC.
It is a decent pub indeed and I know the owner well. Probably would have had a word with him and not thrown my toys out of the pram like I normally do to be honest. Then it would go down to his explanation.................. maybe ��
I remembered the last time we went in Chapmans after a match and a bouncer came over to Mrs Q and told her - not asked her mind - to take her hat/beret off. You'll be amazed to know Veg that I questioned his tone and policy.
" It's so we can see faces clearly on the cctv in case it kicks off "
I informed him of my overall disappointment in my own inimitable style and off we toodled for ever more into the sunset.

Yours or someone else's? Impressive if your own. Bit rude if not.
No we're not.
It's a nervous condition........ good spot though.

RR would not be in The Corner House, that's Gareth Owen's territory. Two quizmasters cannot be in the same pub, Laws of Physics and all that..
He was after the West Brom game...

Didn't he used to have a bloody great big dog?
Interesting comments about Cask. My gang rarely go there now. Their main complaint is, in their opinion, the beers are quite boring these days.

Ooh, am I a git?
Few years back, my regular hairdresser turned me away. I was working an hour away and knew they closed at 6pm [notice on the door], so left work early and arrived at 20-to-six to find the sign turned to "closed" and all 3 cutters busy with 2 waiting. I pushed the door open and asked if I could still get a cut today - was told "no, sorry, too late".
NEVER BEEN BACK !! Their loss ..... [maybe]
