The Village Pub

A sad sad night.

We have been to the Village Pub many times...from the Two for One Curry nights to after church lunch. For a little over year it would be one of the first restaurants that would come to mind when it was time to go out for dinner.

The staff was great...the food as wonderful. The atmosphere could not be better. Great curry, great fish and chips, decent beers. Who could ask for more. Our allegiance was even to the point that our eight year old (now ten) would request going there.

So a Friday night found us in Gulfport again. There is a art walk on the first and third Friday of every month. It is always fun to walk around, see the crafts and look at people (probably the best part).

Without a second thought we decided to go to The Village Pub for dinner....we were greeted at the door by the owner/waitress. She gave us hearty welcome of someone inviting old friends into ones home... we chose a table inside.

Where we witnessed people coming in after us getting service....owner making room for people at the bar and serving them (after we arrived). People that were put on the wait after we arrived...get sat and served...

Needless to say...we left. I am greatly saddened by this evening that we experienced at The Village Pub.

I hate to say it...no longer will this be a destination. There are too many decent restaurants that would be more than happy to take my dollars. Next time I walk into this door it will be an after thought....or a moment that I am severely outnumbered.
