I don't think we should of and we didn't. DH thinks we probably should have done
Basically we went out in Manchester on Saturday, went to northern monk and downstairs in the cellar area there are these long benches with tables. We got one, we sat down. We got some drinks and we started having a lovely chat whilst we waited for our friends to join us. we booked a bench table for 2 hours for before dinner drinks
This massive group walked in, think 20+ and they're crowing round one table that probably fits half their group. Not 20 seconds into walking in, a woman from the group comes over to our table and says because there are only 2 of you, and loads of us and we can't find a table big enough to accommodate our group, can you go and sit with those 2 other strangers across the room so we can have your table. Then started trying to move our stuff.
There was another table of 2 on a bench across the room but they were having an argument and she didn't ask them. I didn't want to move and sit with strangers, so I told her no, and had she asked nicely I might have considered it but she was rude so no.
They moved a Bench from somewhere else and kind of pinned us in after that, then another group left and they actually rearranged all the tables and benches across the room. That lasted about 5 mins and then they got kicked out by staff for being rude at the bar, so they left.
I'm sorry but it's not my job to accommodate your massive group, they should have booked a table like we did.
DH said I made a scene and caused an issue that didn't need to be made but we booked the table! We got assigned to the table because we booked it, we would have had to encroach on another couple who didn't know us or our friends! He's not usually a wet lettuce so I was surprised he was starting to go along with it!
