  from bad to worse

  i.a(m) | Aug 5 2010

  This 'pub' started out so nicely: Irish pub, fish'n'chips shop out-the-back, Indian curry take-away on-the-side. It honestly sounds like the recipe for success is expat Discovery Bay. so why is it a failure?
  
  In a word?
  
  Quality
  
  or lack there of
  
  quality of service (f.x. "can I have a pint of lager please? WHAT? can I have a beer please? WHAT? Can I have a Guinness? No Have. Beer? "
  
  The food has gone from mediocre to worse while still offering the same combo of pub grub/chippie/curry as from the outset 3 years ago - but by vintage it does not improve I am affraid.
  
  While I have a sense of humour I must confess that I fail to see how McSorley's can claim to be child friendly: During the recent World Cup it was the scene of some pretty basic demonstrations of human behavior; during normal sports transmissions whatever the time of day all sorts of language can be heard; it is located next to a licqour store and a toilet which strangely seems to rub off its clientele.
  
  I wish someone who know how a REAL pub should be run would take over the space.
