Which is one of the reasons why we don't let kids in our pub. Dogs either for similar reasons.

Upsetting professional drinkers is neither clever or helpful.

You in the Irwell Valley Brewery?

Say hello to the NZ hipster with the beard and tatts and my niece.
Just popping over to pick 'em up.

They like Surlys.
You'd never guess.

You're a graphic artist / designer, you frequent this forum and go to football matches - you are middle class 😉

I’ll have you know that i’m authentic northern working class scum, despite my affectations. I used to go to the footy back in the days when £300 million was considered an acceptable transfer window spend! 😉

You coming in for a pint Rusty? It’s safe. Tabatha and Ollie have gone. Thank Christ!

Absolutely disgusting behaviour.

I ask you, white wine, of all the drinks.

Just met Rusty and we’ve stressed our real working class credentials by me having a rather nice Argentine Malbec and Rusty using a debit card at the bar 🙂

In their after school crèche until 8pm. Little shits.

Do they not just direct you to the northern quarter to go full contactless with a chip in one of your full sleeve tattoos?

We did once. One the other customers twin daughters, dressed in matching pink outfits, saw fit to wind up one of our lads for about 15 mins on the climbing doofer thing. So he punched one of them.

It's the only time I have ever been banned from a pub. 😳

Flora and Fauna, Harry and George round here in term time, nearly as bad as Southwold, they read the Times and Telegraph and BOOM at each other (and everyone else) about trivia (themselves). I slip an MP3 player in my pocket these days to reduce the chance of doing bird for very bad murder that foxes would be envious of.

studiously ignoring little ****ing Tabatha and Ollie

Parents come to regret giving their kids whimsical names when its time to shout at them while they're having a tantrum in the supermarket. They're not being studiously ignored - from one parent its mortified embarrassment from the other its lip-biting incase theres another publics scene about who's stupid idea the kids names were anyway.

^^ A friend was in a Bristol supermarket queue and a snotty brat was demanding sweets and getting nowhere. Eventually, the kid announced 'if you tell me off once more I'm telling granma I saw you kissing daddy's w****.' The mother left the shopping and the kid and walked out of the shop.

Got a couple of friends like this. We no longer go out with them, because they seem to think it’s everyone else’s job to look after their kids - especially when out for a meal and it seems to an opportunity for them to drink and for everyone else to look after their offspring.

Pubs are not for enjoying oneself. They are for the very serious business of drinking.

Have you tried discipline?

We take our kids in with us from time to time. The moment they make a noise above whisper, they're in the car. Consequently, they know how to talk quietly and respect others.

It's amazing what old-fashioned parenting can instil.

Very much this.

That is priceless.

saxon rider you are me, AICMFP!

"Pub Rules". The boys know what's expected of them or theyre back in the freezing cold landy. Well behaved children, dogs and Irish are always welcome in our local.

I suspect the kids aren't binners and it's still (annoyingly) considered poor form to discipline others.....

Funny but whenever I've been in a pub where dogs are allowed I've never had any issues or worries, never a problem.
Pubs with kids in get no business from me.

Pubs with kids allowed are basically a restaurant with a bar attached, the emphasis is almost always on the food:
There are some, my regular being an example, where the landlord has managed to create an atmosphere where the eating is no more important than the drinking, but does a very good trade in food, while not alienating those who just want a drink, and children, while allowed for meals, are not allowed near the bar.
Certainly I’ve not seen kids there, but then, I’m never there much before 9.30-10.00pm.

Why take children to pubs in the first place...?

Because pubs are part of life. We go rambling with the kids, and after 5 miles, it's normally time for a drink. So we end up stopping at some nice country pub, where Mrs SR and I get a pint, while the kids get J20 or a coke or something.

Consequently, they get a life lesson in staying active, as well as learning that some genteel pleasure can also be enjoyed alongside the activity.

And if they fail to respect that, then they lose.

Result? Future active citizens and pub users, while not annoying current patrons in the present. It's a win-win all around.

Because they enjoy it? Mine does anyway, and as SaconRider and Stoner have already highlighted, it's easy enough to get them to behave if you can be bothered to be a vaguely competent parent.

Why do you go to the pub?
