Pub manager stunned as couple walk out mid-meal refusing to pay their £67 bill
Staff at a popular pub were left stunned after a couple stormed out in the middle of their meal refusing to pay their bill. The diners were eating at the Bunch of Grapes gastropub in Pontypridd on Thursday, July 8 when they suddenly left before they were served their main courses.
According to staff, the diners were initially complimentary about their meal and said that they had enjoyed their starters. However, just before their mains were due to be served, they suddenly walked out and despite being confronted by staff, left without paying their bill. "The bill you owe is significant enough to cover the wages of my staff who I know looked after you in their usual friendly manner. Not to mention the upset caused. Failing that, we have CCTV images of you both, which we will willingly publicise.
But we thought, their food is on the way so hopefully everything will be okay. They seemed to be arguing at the table a little bit but they had their starters and they said they were lovely and they’d enjoyed them." He added: "One of my staff was a bit upset because they thought it was their fault, that they shouldn’t have served them the drinks, but they’d exercised their judgement and we weren’t going to serve them any more. My assistant manager was a bit flummoxed by it all as it had never happened to her and, to be honest, I don’t think it’s happened to me in the last 10 years either.
