Incredible attitude problem. Forgetting the price for the moment ($15 for a well drink which I guess is somewhat typical for this kind of place), the bartenders were off-the-charts rude to us. After asking if that was the real price (a sincere "I honestly think I misheard you"), I was told that I might be more comfortable at an Irish pub. After checking my hearing again, I asked "are you serious?" to which I was told that I would be asked to leave. The bartender walked around the bar and pretended to go look for "security". When he came back after clearly not actually going to find anyone, I went to look for the manager. The manager sincerely apologized, offered 2 rounds of drinks and said he'd take care of it. I thanked him for understanding, but declined the drinks and left hoping that he actually did speak to them. But seriously, is this how they treat people typically?
