To think the responses to these TripAdvisor reviews are beyond rude!

None of the reviews are mine, I’ve never been to the place. A friend told me about the cafe owner’s responses to any negative reviews and I’m sat here open mouthed reading them. She alludes to reviewers having small penises, stalks their tripadvisor profile to read other reviews and slags off their photos, etc.

Like I said I’ve never been and won’t after reading these as I wouldn’t want to give my money to someone who sounds so —unhinged— nasty. Can’t believe someone who runs a business has so little idea about customer service.

I got to three pages in and didn’t see one negative comment. What have I missed.Confused

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 24/08/2019 22:54

What page are they on.

Crunchymum · 24/08/2019 22:57

She obviously hasn't seen the most recent post about there being no vegetarian options!!

PickwickThePlockingDodo · 24/08/2019 22:57

Well I've looked through the terrible and bad reviews and can't see any replies Confused

SleepyKat · 24/08/2019 22:57

One response she calls the reviewer “Tubbs”. Which is not their profile name! Shock

You can filter the reviews by ticking the boxes for poor, terrible. And then you only get those reviews. They all have responses.

Erm no they don't, just tried that

SleepyKat · 24/08/2019 22:59

So, in short, no table because of our policy of no children in the evenings and offended by a waitress singing “Happy”? Really? No, really? Is that REALLY the best you can come up with? How do you get through your working day? how do you get through life ?? There are terrible things going on in this world, and you come up with THIS! Get a grip man! Is this what TripAdvisor has become? Did your wife read this petulant pap and in a husky, girlie voice say “ooh darling, your sooo manly and masterful, you showed them!” keep an eye on her, she may just run off with a jelly blancmange. This doesn’t sound like a place with an “air of superiority” to me, it sounds like a fun place at the beach, which, as yet, thankfully, hasn’t disappeared up its own derriere. Unfortunately for you, our fabulous Michele (the singing waitress) is not as potty as she looks, the decision was all hers, whether you ate or not and due to your attitude, you failed the singing waitress test miserably. Important lesson in life number 37. Never talk to a waitress like they’re dirt on your shoe, they will always get revenge. p.s. Crumbs! I wish I could get away with charging £18+ for a steak, but I can’t, so I don’t, Mr Pants on fire.

Just go to the ratings bar and click on the 'terrible' reviews. There are a few people complaining about vegetarian options and one of them describes the atmosphere as 'Soviet' and says his girlfriend cried as a result of their visit.

PickwickThePlockingDodo · 24/08/2019 23:01

Oh ok you have to actually click on the review

GCAcademic · 24/08/2019 23:01

I think they’re funny and, moreover, I’m convinced this woman is a Mumsnetter (references to gin and “tilts head”). If you’re on here, scary Seagull lady, reveal yourself!

SleepyKat · 24/08/2019 23:01

Dunno then, all the ones I’m looking at have responses.

Oh dear, she seems to fancy herself as a bit of a wit, but is failing miserably.

In my experience, owners who try to defend themselves in this way turn out to be deranged control freaks.

SleepyKat · 24/08/2019 23:02

Some are quite funny.

Absolutely correct. No under 6's in the restaurant after six, however we DO sometimes bend the rules, that is , if the parents are friendly, polite and in control. Clearly, my staff didn't like the look of you. Any found on the premises after 6. will be taken into the kitchen and made into rissoles.

Chloemol · 24/08/2019 23:03

Pickwick click on the actual bad reviews and you will get both what the visitors wrote and her mad, rude replies. Not somewhere I would go to

TanyaChix · 24/08/2019 23:04

Speechless. What an arrogant tosser.

Letthemysterybe · 24/08/2019 23:04

Hilarious! Is it for real?

WalkofShame · 24/08/2019 23:04

Look at the one star reviews

TheActualAlexa · 24/08/2019 23:04

Great share OP! Fabulous read and deserves to go viral! I regret i live 5 hours away so can't go there and check it out

FiveShelties · 24/08/2019 23:04

There are some on the 'Terrible Reviews'.

BG2015 · 24/08/2019 23:04

Oh my goodness, those responses are hilarious.

Look at the 'terrible' ones.

WalkofShame · 24/08/2019 23:04

Sorry obviously the thread moved on while I was reading trip advisor 😂

PickwickThePlockingDodo · 24/08/2019 23:05

Yes found it now. They are indeed bonkers. This is what they said about gluten free request:
^I have no time for those determined to fling themselves on the burning pyre of martyrdom for the gluten free cause.
A cause that's making people lose all sense of proportion and common sense.^
